According to the ancient custom, dating
as far back the Middle Ages the
younger Hohenzollern princes waited upon
the emperor and empress, the king and
queen of SaXony, and the bridal couple,
and at dessert the aged head of the house
arose and proposed the health Of Prince
and Princess William in terms tender

And where, meanwhile, was the BRIDE
groom? With that martial coquetry which
has been characteristic of so many great
soldiers, Prince William had determined
to greet his fancee at the head OF his
company of Foot Guards, those gigantic
soldiers whose towering peaked shakos Of
white metal, and uniforms prodigal of gold
and embroidery and trappings-and there

SUGAR BEETs PUTS
MONEY In CIRCULATION

In view of the fact that Durango
is making an effort to secure beet
sugar factory, 1t will be interesting
to know OF the business the industry
Is making in other towns. A dispatch
from Greeley to the Denver Post
says
"The farmers were paid yesterday
for beets delivered during the last
month to the Greeley. Eaton and
half dug and will be gathered during
the next two weeks. but IT will be
January l5 before all the sliced beets
are taken to the factories. This
means that the factories will be oper-
ated until well into February. Yes
terday's payments aggregated nearly
a third of a million dollars.
twenty-five thousand tons was the
output for the Greeley factory, 1900
tons for the Eaton and 21.000 for the
Windsor factory"
A dispatch from Fort Collins says:
"Ten thousand tons OF beets were
delivered at the local factory yester
day, this being the largest single
days receipts since the plant was
built The total number OF tons de
livered this season has reached 100,
900, nearly two-thirds OF the entire
crop for this district this year. The
factory will be operated until abou
the middle OF February"
The Telluride Journal has the fol
lowing about the Grand Junction fac
tory:
THE Grand Junction beet suga
factory today paid out to the grower
Of sugar beets 100000. This is tn
first payment on the seasons crol
| and is one-half OF the total, the re
| mainder being paid later. Thi
| money goes to the farmers OF Mont
rose, Delta. Mesa and Garfield cour
ties. $4,000 Of the amount being re
tained in Mesa county. Today tn
factory passed the 100000 poun
mark, or $4,000 bags for this seaso
and the crop is about half worked NJ
This is considerably more than tn
entire yield for the factory's first an
more than two-thirds as much suga
as was made last year"
