Webster City, Oct. The trouble be-
tween the sugar beet growers OF this
vicinity and the sugar refining COM
5pany has been agreeably settled. Last
spring agents of the Minneapolis Re-
filming Company contracted with a
number of farmers here to raise sugar
beets. with the end in view Of estab-
fishing q factory here. The farmers
entering into the agreement then un-
derstood that only the leaves We're to
be removed for delivering and that the
product should be weighed here. But
an agent of the company who has been
bere during the summer astounded the
farmers when they began to hau, their
beets by telling them that all growing
above ground must be destroyed and
that they must also take Minneapolis
weights. The farmers would not listen
to such a proposition and some began
to feed the beets to their stock. Mr..
Theiben, president Of the company. was
sent for and met the growers Saturday.
1t appears. that the agent was not act
ing as he should, for Mr.. Theiben read
lily consented to having the beets
weighed here. 1t was also agreed that
nothing but the leaves should be re-
moved. Had they been compelled to
cut off all growing above ground many
of the growers would have lost third
Of their crop, by which they would

very large area of this land is noun
famous and desert, but the mountains
are good for grazing purposes, and are
so used. The settlers object to the
grabbing of the lands available for ag-
riculture. Much of the mountain land
is rich in timber, and this is also being
grabbed by the syndicates, denuded OF
the timber, thus lessening the rainfall,
to the detriment of the farming lands
in the valleys.
The Indians also raise howl
against the acquisition of the lands
by the syndicates. They claim that
the forests naturally belong to them
for hunting purposes. This lessons
their game supply and they must
move elsewhere.
There are number of these syndi-

and the white settler, but to the tan
payers and the general government
Most of these are English, with Eng
