A GREAT CROP.
Sugar Beets Popular With the
Farmers.

Farmers.
From the Saccharinc Gazette.
The sugar beet crop of last year was
far and away the bcs, money producer
for the farmers of this section of the
valley.
The bee; crop has number of dis
tinctivc advantages over other crops
that is making it more than popular
every year. The price per ton is fixed
before the seed is put in the ground;
spot cash in lump on delivery of the
crop; no Chicago commission house
gets rake off; they don't have to be
Grated; the beet plant is rarely ever
killed by hail or wind storms: you
can plant them early or late aud get
good results.
Below we print i list of farmers and
lcsscers of Sugar City ani the Ord
way districts with the number of
acres grown and the total receipts.
Many of them average over 500 per
acre.

FREIGHT WRECK
DISASTROUS sMAsH-uP in the
LOCAL YARDS YESTERDAY
MORNING.

One OF the worst wrecks in the his
tory of the local yards occurred Sun
day morning about ten O'Clock. A
train of rs empties hauled by an en-
CINE of 22Oo class was pulling into
the yards from the east and when the
head of the train was just below the
scale house low spot in track let
the locomotive down so low that the
train parted between the tank and
first car. The first fifty-fve were air
cars, connected and working and
VIXEN the train parted of course the
brakes on all of these were set to the
emergency. Ascending light grade
at the time and the engine working
steam the slack was out and when the
air went on the rear end came against
the front with much force, deraiIing
four cars. One. Boston and Albany
box. was crushed like an egg-sheIl
and the woodwork was burned. The
other cars were more or less damaged
requiring repairs before they are
fit for service.
The Fairmont yard has been very
fortunate in the matter of wrecks
and the one yesterday was only a
minor affair and caused by no fault of
the local officials.
Relief Train Had Narrow Escape.
The Grafton train was summoned
and made a record breaking run, and
probably this train had the narrowest
escape that train on the Wheeling
division ever experienced. The train
was hauled by the 2240 and after ar
irving here the engineer in looking
her over discovered that tire on one
of the drivers lad become loosened
and had worked to the inside of the
wheel about an inch and a half A
fraction of an inch more would have
certainly lost 1t and the result would
have been terrible as an unusual rate
of speed was maintained all the way
from Grafton and 1t is more than like
ly that had the tire dropped more
than than twenty men would have
been killed or injured.
