Section Foreman Cannon is

physician of this city. There is no

All Should Helm.

The farmers cannot and ought not to
be expected to build good roads unas-
sisted by the other industries Of the
state. This fact is now fully recogniz-
ed by all who have made careful study
Of the problem of securing permanent
highways. 1t is further evident that
money contributed for road construc.
ton ought not to be used in the waste,

Drndeery Of Sugar See. R.isios.

The great bedrock truth is that
American farmers, as a class, do
not take kindly to beat sugar cul-
ture. The farmers in Europe are
accustomed to lower wages and to
hand culture. The farmers and
the farm labor Of rhe United States
are accustomed to broad culture.
Accustomed to farm machinery,
they will not go upon their knees
or bend their backs to weed and
cultivate beds. In Europe, where
women work in the fields and farm
labor is not paid one-third as much
as here, hand culture is the method
because OF the limited area of land
and the cheapness of labor. For
these reasons it is safe to say that
beet sugar culture will never reach
the proportions in this country to
rival those Of Europe or to make
US Independent of foreign countries.
