SUGAR BEET INDUTRY
MAKES GIANTSTRIDES

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 15.-Ernest
Grotkass of Magdeburg, Germany, a
representative of the German Agricul-
tural association, said at the ST. Fran
els hotel yesterday that the sugar beet
industry of the United States had ad-
vanced with giant strides during the
past IL months.
Grotkass, who was here a year ago
in the interests of the German assoc
citation, sees great advances in the in
dustry since then. He said that al
though few years old in America, the
industry if carried on as at present will
become vast source of income to the
producing farmers in the future.
In talking on the advance of the in
dustry in Germany, Grotkass said that
the German agricultural association,
with headquarters in Berlin, had a
membership of $4,000 and every year
sent representatives to different por-
tions of the world to study foreign
methods and learn new ways He has
been twice in the United States He
says that the conditions of beet farm
ing here and in Germany vary consid-
erably therefore the advanced Ameri-
can machinery would not in all cases
be available.
Beet farming in Germany, where il
is more than 100 years old, is carried
on practically in the same manner as
a century ago. Grotkass supports the
plan of the German and European gov.
ernments in providing a subsidy fol
sugar beet farmers. AS a result of the
policy he points out that the sugar pro
duction in Germany is the greatest il
Europe and amounts to three timeI
the amount required for home con
sumption. A great portion of the sur
plus is exported to England Japan ant
the Orient. Other successful producer
of beet sugar in Europe are Russia
Austria and France, where the farming
operations are conducted on much tn
same lines as in Germany.
Grotkass spoke yesterday of the re
markable progress made in this line o
farming in Idaho and Colorado, iron
where he had just come.

Some religions excommunicate on
ceremonial grounds, but we may pre-
sumo that the theosophical society does
not wish to copy their examples. Re-
ligions leave to the civil powers the
punishment of offenses and strive to
reform and purify rather than expel.
Shall the theosophical society descend
below the level common to religious
bodies and proclaim itself in need?
"A penal code among us would be
the denial of brotherhood. Spirituality
proclaims the unity of all. Just in pro-
portion as we are spiritual shall we
feel our unity with saints and sinners
alike.
I'VE are all eager to feel our unity
with the gods, with the Christs, with
the saints, but no such lop-sided unity
is possible. Only those can be one with
the highest who are one with the low
est; by the one spirit that dwells in us
all, our brothers sins are our sins, our
brothers shame our shame.
IF we make a rule expelling from
the society our undesirables, we shall
sink below the level of all great re-
ligious bodies, even below the level o
ordinary scientific, philosophical anC
literary societies.
For my part, / shall steadily resis
any attempt to impose a penal cod
upon the society, l stand for the affirm

ments, making it easier on them and
saving them the heavy costs; but John
son doesn t seem to be the man to hold
out this amount. He says that Holt
should send a deputy collector over
each time the men are paid and work
the coupon racket after the men have
been handed their money. Sam doesn't
propose to be unpopular with the vot-
ers if he can help it.
Collector Holt shows a copy Of let
ter which he wrote early in the year
to the Supervisors, suggesting that
they cooperate with him in getting
the taxes in a way that would be east
est for the workmen, but their reply
letter is non-committa and nothing
ever came Of the thing.
1t is clear that the Supervisors do
not want to become unpopular any
more than Johnson does. So it looks
as if the voters will have to cough up
to the Collector direct even if it is
through process of law, and the costs
will nearly double the amount they
will have to pay. Holt points out that
inasmuch as the Counties get $3.50 out
of the S. Of poll tax they should be
willing to help collect it.
The tax Office has been having more
success than formerly in collecting the
taxes from the Japanese fishermen
