Experience of Bay County Farmer
with the two Crops

Mr.. William Ruterbush, of Ports
mouth township. Bay county. was
pleasant caller at our Office during the
week, and in talking of the beet crop,
Mr. Ruterbush made the statement that
it was God-seni to many farmers in
this section and that he had been able
to make some money since the crop was
introduced into Bay county. For ten
years before beets came in" said he, II
was hardly making living on my
land. but now am making some mon
ey have already made S3. 600 In the
raise of farm values besides making well
from my beet crop have 260 acres of
land and l can make more from my
beets than can from all the rest of the
land.
'.In 1898 from two acres we. that's
my brother and l, made e181. We
didn't know much about the crop then
In 1899 we had 10 acres and we made
$500. aud this was an awful bad year
for beets and good many farmers lost
money, but We dio pretty well
Last year we had in 10 acres and
made over 81 600 clear money, and we
think this was pretty good. We have
learned much about the crop and were
able to handle it very much cheaper
this year than any other year, and we
expect to put in 30 acres for 'h,s wear.
This same land into wheat would
not pay good rent for the land. In
1898 we had 40 acres of wheat. and it
went 30 bushels to the acre and we re-
ceived 70 cents per bushel for the wheat;
in 10 8 we had in 43 acres and that was
a failure and we only got about 800
bushels which we sold at rs cents per
bushel; last year we had in 20 acres
from which we got about 400 bushels
which we have not sold yet. Wheat at
present prices will not pay any farmer
10 raise and would not grow any only
for keeping up good rotation.
II keep a large herd Of cattle and
feed great deal Of beet pulp and find it
very valuable. know that it increases
the milk flow for l have watched il with
my cattle and to take he pulp away
from them would mean a falling off of
more than a quart each q day. The
beet industry Is the best thing that ever
came to the farmer and it increases the
value of your land each year There Is
no danger of the crop robbing the land
of its fertility if farmers only try to
keep up the land but any crop will rob
the land if you don't put back what you
take away."-Mich Sugar Beet.

X. G. Suddeth, a deputy United
States marshal. has been removed
from Office and is under bond to an
swer on the charge of impersonating
a pension officer. Suddeth was arrest
ed upon information furnished by a
Mrs. Kymes, of Montgomery county,
the widow of federal soldier, who
made application for pension. The
dispositions were taken before Sud-
deth, then an acting notary public.
Mrs. Kymes claims to have paid for
this service, shortly after her pension
was allowed. Suddeth, it is alleged,
put in claim for services rendered
aiding her in securing the pension
Mr. Suddeth claims that he put in
eight days work taking depositions
for Mrs. Kymes in her claim for a
pension and that he considers his fee
of $40 which is ali he charged, very
reasonable. He denies that there was
anything at all irregular about the
transaction with Mrs. Kymes.
