BEET MEN UNITE ON PRICE.
Demand SO Per Ton Instead of So
Offered ut Menomonie.

The farmers have refused to contract
any sugar beets at 50 per ton. There
was a meeting of beet growers with the
officers of the Chippewa Sugar Company
in the company's Office at Chippewa Falls
to make contracts for this season. The
company offered So per ton. The farm
erS refused to grow beets at that price
and there were no contracts signed. At
the State convention of the American
Society of Equity it was decided that all
sugar beet growers should not sell their
beets to the companies for less than ST
and they are going to hold out. 1t may
be possible that the Chippewa company
may have to cease operations this year
unless they pay what the farmers want.

1t is bad policy to have cracks in the
poltry house. A draft on the fowls
while roosting will cause many COM
plants. A good waterproof cement
for stopping up cracks and leaks in the
poultry house is to mix two quarts of
freshly Stacked lime with one pint Of
cement. Moisten it with skim milk to
the consistency of mortar and apply it
literally in every crack and crevice. 1t
will soon harden and prove very serv-
iceable.
