PROFITS IN SUGAR sEETs.

The American Beet Sugar company
or Rocky Ford has issued a circular
which is being sent to all persons
seeking information in regard to the
growing of sugar beets in the Arl,au
sas valley. In it are presented some
facts worthy of special note. Taken
at random from the list of those who
sold beets to the company's factory
last year are twelve names. whose
acreage ranged from one to ten acres
each. the total being 62k acres.
Their yields of beets per acre were
from 22 tons to 1920 tons. and the
price per ton was from $417 to $3.50.
The gross receipts per acre were from
$lO1.64 to S128.C9. In addition to
these twelve growers there were thir.
teen growers who received more than
$50 per acre; twenty-six more than
$50 per acre; thirty-fve more than
$40 per acre; flfty-fve more than $50
per acre; 81 more than $50 per acre,
and eighty more than $40 per acre.
These are the actual results of the
first years crop. the company's esti-
mate OF the expense per acre to pro
duce crop being $50. AS experience
Is gained the amount of beets per
acre can be increased, and the ex-
pense somewhat decreased The com.
pany assure market for from 1000
to 100000 tons of beets annually, and
this means an expenditure in that sec.
ton of the Arkansas valley alone of
from $650,00O to $4,000 for beets ev,
cry year.
The profitable character of this crop
| Is seen by comparison. An average
yield of wheat Is 25 bushels an acre
which at from SO cents to rs cents q
bushel means from $3.50 to SlS.75
per acre. At an average OF five tons
of alfalfa an acre the ground gets
from SIS to $50 an acre. The profits
per acre on a good proportion of the
sugar beet acreage about Rocky Ford
last season was more than the gross
yield OF any acre of grain or alfalfa

WASHINGTON. May 3.-There is
no doubt that Secretary of War Root
and the Cuban commission reached an
understanding satisfactory to both
sides, but out of courtesy to the con-
stitutional convention at Havana the
details Will be preserved as confiden-
tial until the commission has an op-
por;unity to make its report.
This much is known, however, that
the president, through the secretary
OF war. gave the delegation distinct
and positive assurances that there is
no intention on the part of the present
administration to annex the island of
Cuba unless the rejection OF the Platt
resolutions should make q new policy
necessary. They were told that the
subject had never been contemplated
and that If it ever was considered the
proposition must come from the Gu
bans, who would find it difficult to
break into the union.
They were also assured that the OBJ
Ject of maintaining naval stations was
as much for the protection of Cuba as
for the United States, and that the
privilege of intervention to preserve
the peace of the island would be found
very useful to the people down there
in case of internal dissenson.
The secretary of war explained to
them that the executive could not
pledge or bind the legislative branch
of the government. but would recon-
mend liberal tariff concessions in ia
vor of the Cuban products and use
It's influence for the adoption of a re-
ciprocity treaty similar to that made
during the Harrison administration.

thing has been said about danger. There is no danger in this matter; there Is no danger that will beset the Governor; and there is no breaking down, or striking down of ancient landmarks as has been said. The Governor has the right to veto the measure now. The only difference is if he vetoes it. he has to send 1t back to the House in which it originated, with his veto. and the question then becomes the bale. naked question, of whether or not the Legislation shall pass notwithstanding the veto of the Governor.
 Now. when he has the power to veto. SO as to require full majority of both Houses to overcome the veto. where Is there any temptation? Where Is there any striding over the difference be- tween the coordinate departments of the government, when we say in the in the Constitution, that instead of the right of vetCSrg the Legislation that is passed. he may simply point out wherein there has been some error, or some technical mishap to the bill. and send 1t back with the suggestion that with that simple amendment 1t will meet with his approval.
 At least. 1t is simply a difference of
 
 tuition, he can do that with the simple machinery that is provided. He can do 1t now. as has been suggested, by sending for members of the legislature to come down into his office, and ask ing them to go throughe tedious ma chinery of recalling the legislation by a resolution which consumes time. and reconsidering it. in order to meet sug- gestions which he makes in a semi-of- ficial manner. What harm can be done? What temptation besieges him? The word temptation has been used; to strike down ancient landmarks, has been used. If there any objection to this machinery. instead of the other? Now the Committee feels that 1t gave very serious consideration to to this matter. The Committee debated it very thoroughly and conscientiously and it seems to them that it provides the best and simplest means for him to make known in a public manner,

COTTON MARKET
 WAS VERY DULL ScaIping Element Did Not Make Their Usual Turns" A WEAK FOREIGN MARKET Rumored That Farmers in Texas Were Given Over to Prospecting for
 oil, But Did Not Affect
 Acreage of State.
A WEAK FOREIGN MARKET

New York, May Alt was an exception ally dull day on the cotton exchange The variations did not allow even the scalp ing element to make the usual turns" and offered no inducement to investors or the professional trade. The opening was steady with prices 1 to 4 points lower, a surprisingly good start in view of pronounced weakness in Liver pool, and bearish average of news in hand from the crop center. Both depart ments of the English market declined sharply from liquidation, prices declining to the lowest level reached during the week.
 Foreign selling orders were cabled to representatives here, this pressure coming upon the summer months principally After the call the market steadied a point or so on covering by nervous shorts who feared possible manipulation of July and August. Receipts were up to the av- craze and crop news was favorable ex- cept in the Southwest, where rain was needed. It was said that in parts of Texas farms were being given over to prospecting for oil, but this new attrac- ton for planters was not sufficiently
  broadcast to seriously affect the acreage of that state. Mill reports from Fall River and the South were gloomy. as heretofore, with demand for cloths almost at standstill. The weather forecast being favorable and the estimates for to- morrow's receipts being large shorts made no attempt at depressing values in the afternoon.
 The market was finally dull but steady with urices net points lowe rto points higher.

Murphy 6 Co.'S Cotton Letter.

New York, May 2.--The volume of busi- ness today was quite moderate within a very narrow range. A number of buy ing orders prevented any further decline in feeling that market may do better Liverpool displays nervousness, the spot market, however, being unchanged. Flu lures sold off there to points, with sales of 1000 bales. The various weather stations through the south from North Carolina to Texas, reported clear wealth CT. Heavy shipments from Bombay con tinue, the figures for the week being 19,- 600 vs. 5000 last year
 There is good req son for looking for a decreased movement of cotton at ports before many days. Exports have been quite free of late. This heavy movement has no doubt been due to the fair wealth. CT throughout the south. Accounts con tnue so come as to the scarcity of seed and necessity of replanting, and are at- tracting some attention. There Is a strong suspicion here that some sections of Tex as are badly in need of rain. The July options to rule strong, and we are of the belief that it will later on sell much higher.
