their harvest. it is certain that between
$500, 600. 90 and $400. .00.00 will be paid
to the farmers for their beets this year.
Ihrec-fourths of this will be divided
about equally between Fort Morgan
and Brush, which districts produced
about So. 900 to 10000 tons of beets,
and Weldon Valley between Is, 900 an0
20, 600 tons. This seems to us a
mighty good result for practically the
first year. Next year with about
twice the acreage and the knopledge
gained there should come into Nor
gan county million dollars for sug-
ar beets. This with the money spent
for the new factories and the labor
in handling the crops should necessi-
tate the spending of at least 50, 800, 900

brown-hued subject of the Mikado,
who has been looking after the Japa-
nese laborers in this locality during
the beet season, collected all the mon
ey dne his countrymen from beet grow
ers and quietly left for the west. He
left some unpaid accounts at the local
stores, but only few of these are for
large amounts. Some of the people
to whom Ben owes money express the
belief that he will return and pay his
debts. others think that they have
seen the last of the dusky tinancier.
The amount of money he had when he
left is stated to have been about
81. 10000. most of which belonged to
Japs. who earned it in the beet fields.
