secured. from the railway companies,
and your share of the pulp for feed
ing will be shipped to you at lowest
possible rates.

dustry and showing your loyalty to
your own county by giving us an early
and large contract for acreage.
Farmers in Bay County have paid
their debts by raising sugar beets.

A NOBLE LIFE ENDED.
Mrs. George w. Estes Died Wednes-
day Morning.

From the st. Johns Republican
BY the death of Mrs. George W. Estes
which occurred Wednesday morning,
st. Johns loses one of its oldest and most
highly esteemed citizens, and noble
Christian woman Susan Smith was
born in New Fame, Niagara county,
New York, May B, 1926. When but
three weeks old she lost her mother by
death, and was taken to Ransomville to
make her home with her aunt, Mrs.
Clark Ransom.
May 81, 1S43, Miss Smith was united
in marriage with George w. Estes at
Ransomville. In 1916 the young couple
came to Bingham township, this county,
and settled on a farm two miles south
of st. Johns Here they resided until
1854, when they moved to st. Johns,
where Mr. Estes practiced his profession
as veterinary surgeon. Also for
short time he conducted the first whole.
sale house ever established in this city.
He was employed by the village COM
pany to take charge of the village inn
provements.
Had Mrs. Estes lived until next MAY
she would have passed her sixtieth we'd
ding anniversary. There is at present
no one living in st. Johns who has re-
sided here so many years as Mr. and
Mrs. Estes.
To this couple were born six children,
all of whom are living, as follows;
Herbert M Estes, St Johns; James d.
Estes, Owosso; George A. and Louis F,
Estes st. Johns; Charles Fl. Estes,
Brooklyn, Jackson county; and Mrs.
Horace Tucker, st. Johns. There are
also eleven grandchildren.
For the past year Mrs. Estes has been
i'll, it having been thought last winter
her death was near at hand. Since
that time she has not seen well day,
and death came as a relief to her One
week ago she was confined to her bed,
and suffered intensely up to the time of
her death, at 545 o'clock Wednesday
CiO was lduiOldl W lilt ldSU,
and short time before her death she
bade the children with their families
who were all present, goodbye, saying
that she could plainly see the grand
hereafter, and that she wished before
going to thank them all for their affec.
tionate kindness toward her.
The funeral will be held at the M. E.
church, Friday afternoon at 2:3O o'clock.
Rev. R. S. McGregor, officiating. The
remains will not be viewed at the
church. but may be seen at the house,

The Sugar Co. Buildings.

The engineers of the Michigan Gen.
trail and Ann Arbor railroads and of the
Kilby Mfg. Co. have finally agreed up
on the location of the buildings for the
Owosso Sugar Co. and the manner in
which the joint sidetracks shall be laid
in the yards. The main building is to
be located near the southeast corner OF
the property, with the beet sheds di-
rectly north. The Ann Arbor has ma
terial upon the ground and will begin
the work of grading today. The Kilby
Co. will let the contract for the stone
work for the buildings the first of next
week, after which the excavating will
be commenced at once.

Senator Patterson on Reciprocity.

Senator Thomas Nj. Patterson, demo
crat, of Colorado, in recent speech at
Lamar, Colo, laid stress upon the part
the sugar trust was playing towards
the beet sugar industry. He demon
strated from the testimony before the
Teller Senate Committee that the pleas
for justice and sympathy for Cuba were
based not even upon imagination, but
upon deliberate falsehoods about the
condition of the Cuban people, circu-
lated by the sugar trust to manufacture
public sentiment to force demand
for the reduction of the duty on Cuban
sugar. The entire public outcry on be-
half of Cuba was the result of manu-
factured sentiment that cost the sugar
trust many thousands of dollars.
The Senator showed how beet sugar
was rapidly gaining control of the
sugar market. In 1856 there were
1902, 900 tons of cane sugar produced
and, but 241, 600 tons of beet sugar,
while in the years 1901 and 1902 there
were .3,SO0,0O0 tons of cane sugar to
$500, 900 tons of beet sugar. OF the
worlds supply of sugar 66 per cent. is
now made from beets No beet sugar
pays tribute to the sugar trust. Every
pound of refined sugar consumed in the
United States passes through the hands
of the sugar trust. Beet sugar is re-
fined at individual factories. while cane
sugar is brought to the United States
and passes through the refneries of the
trust. This enables the trust to fix the
prices of the cane sugar, but the beet
sugar is confounding their monopoly.
For every pound of beet sugar the trust
can prevent being manufactured, a
pound of cane sugar takes its place.
IF the trust can drive the beet sugar
out of existence" said Senator Patter-
son, ''the trust will control every pound
of sugar consumed in the country, and
this is what it is trying to accomplish.
The deliberate purpose of the sugar
trust is to ultimately secure the free ad-
mittance of Cuban sugar. The Su-
gar Beet Gazette.

a Strange Statement.

The Stephens murder near Shafts
burg this week is the first crime of the
kind in Shiawassee county since Muir
derer Sullivan was lynched for the kill
ing of the Leetch family nearly ten
years ago. Inasmuch as every other
county in the state has had from one
to dozen murders since then, it looks
as if an occasional judicious lynching
really had some effect in restraining
would-be murderers in the neighbor-
hood. Detroit Free Press.

Danger Signal In the Alns.

According to the international agree
ment recently made in regard to the
danger signal in the Alps six shots or
movements of light will be recognized
as call for assistance. In cases of
stomach, liver and bowel troubles, it is
always wise to heed the first danger
signal, and give Nature the assistance
she is calling for. The best medicine to
aid the stomach in digesting the food,
to stir up the liver, or to open up the
clogged bowels, is Hostetters Stomach

shiawassee Best For Sugar seets.

Expert Tower, Of the Lansing Sugar
Company, thinks Shiawassee county
contains the best sugar teet land i'll
Michigan. In conversation with Clay
ton Loring, recently at Lansing, Mr..
Tower said:
IF had factory to build should
place it in Shiawassee, where there is
more good land for sugar beets than in
any other one county in Michigan.
There is some fine territory in Ingham,
but the farmers to the south of us are
all pretty well fixed. They don'thave
to raise beets-and they don't"

day himself is affiliated with no denom-
ination.
His plan is to stay month in each
place. For the first two weeks he does
not give the invitation He tells the
people funny stories and amuses them
with certain bizarre methods OF preach
Ing The third week he devotes to an
exposition of sin as he has found II
among the people Nth whom he is la
boring. During the fourth week he shows
the sinner the way to repentance.
Iia is 1.-the. well built. swarthy chap
forty years old. and with the look OF a
man much younger. In the pulpit he
wears business clothing, we'll tailored and

not because he is warm .necessa rily.
but because it makes him different from

ainl-to be different. In Wheaton the
other night he made a running leap from

ed around the church. preaching all the
While.
This is a frosty town" he shouted.
but I am determined by the grace of
God to change it.
He did change 1t to some extent.
Wheaton is an aristocratic Chicago su-
burb, the seat OF the Chica go Golf Club
known Chcagoans. 1t is not the most
promising field. therefore. for evangelical
opera tons. But Mr.. Sunday thought
the people needed a moral jolting. and
he made arrangements to preach to them
for month. The first week the revival
there was rather a frost. Wheaton didn't
care much for funny stories and it had
little curiosity to hear the preaching OF
an eX-base-ball player. So Mr. Sunday
was forced to look into his resources.
He loafed around the drug store and the
postofflce for a few mornings until ne
got line on the moral condition Of the
place. Then he permitted some OF his
information to percolate through his ser
mons. The consequence was that IN
night or two Wheaton began to notice
him.
Next he attacked Sunday golf in such
vigorous fashion that the capitalists who
use the links of the Chicago club found
themselves without caddies on the Sab
bath day Card playing and dancing,
too. fell under the ban OF his eloqueace.
You can't waltz to heaven. ne SAD.
and neither can you tWo-step after you

respect for gamble, w:lo will sit in

in the morning as l have for a woman
who will parade under the garb OF re.
spectability at euchre or. cinch parties
This was peculiar preaching for Wheat,
on. but Cary Memorial Church was full
every night, and two hundred and i've
persons. mostly men, were converted In
one month.
