SUGAR COMPANY SAID TO BIZ
PLANNING THESE
Berthoud May Soon Have Sugar
Factory Built By the Great
Western Company's
Capital

The following story appeared Fri-
day In one of the Denver dailies and
IL true will mean considerable mora
development in the beet sugar in
dustry In Colorado:
The visit of Fl. o. HavemeyeY,
head OF the sugar trust, week ago
to Colorado will mean the invest
ment of from $1,000, 900 to s5. 600, coo
additional money in northern Colo.'
RADIO.
The trust has practically decided
to locate another factory in Bert.
houd at cost of 81, 900, 600 and In
crease the capacity of each of the
eight factories now operated so they
may take care of the present product
Just now the capacity of the larg-l
est factories is 1900 tons of beets q
day, and they are in full blast from
September until February. Tho
extra investment decided upon wilf'
increase the tonnage onefourth.
Not only this, but there is little
question that the purchase price OF
beets will remain the same as this
year.
While Mr.. Havemeyer was I'M
Colorado he refused to be interS]
viewed. One of the heads of tbs
sugar company said this was becaus
the company does not care 10 ans
nounce it's policy pending a deinltea
decision on the tariff on sugaEa and
until cnntracts are sigasd sfOs ntaS
years. product. This year the prod
uct was greater than the eight
factories could handle. AS a result
only the farmers who had made con-
tracts with the factories could find a
sale for their beets.
This years crop was better than
that OF any previous year, running
all the way from fifteen to thirty
tons an acre. 1t was the most
profitable of any crop ever raised by
western farmers. With the increased
capacity for handling next year the
material prosperity of the sugar beet
districts should be nearly double.
Berthoud has been for some time
anxious for factory, and recently
several of her leading citizens raised
enough money to almost warrant the
building of an independent plant.
The sugar trust has also had its eye
on the town and the result is that
the trust has practically agreed to
add one more factory to its string OF
eight.
The trust has, during the last
wear, employed in the districts OF It's
factories ten expert agriculturists
who make it their business to visit
the various sugar beet farms, and not
only observe the conditions as they
are, but advise the farmers lust how
to get the greatest good of beets fiom
Next year the trust
proposes to furnish seed to every
grower of beets, taking the pay out
of the money derived from the sale
Mr.. Havemeyer while here eX-
pressed the opinion that the sugar
industry of Colorado could be IN
creased ten fold. AS subsidiary
of the trust the Great
Western company has also gone into
the purchasing OF water ana power

plants ---

The Chinese had the first zoo Me-
mageries are thought to W their
origin partly to the cult of sacred
animals and partly to the ambition Of
rulers to possess specimens of rare
and valuable creatures from foreign
Hands or savage beasts from their own.
In the simplest forms geological gar
dens were one of the earliest develop
ments of culture, and were familiar to
the Chinese, Indians, Greeks. Romans.
and pre-Spanish Mexicans in ancient
Simes. The oldest recorded menagerie
SIS Chinese, dating from 1850 B. c. The
den Of lions kept by Darius, as de-
scribed in the book OF Daniel, is an ex-
ample of one of those primitive me-
nageries, while the cult of sacred
white horses by the ancient Greeks
and Romans and that of so-called
white elephants in Burma and Siam
are instances of a second type. A live
giraffe was received at the menagerie
of Schonbrunn as early as 1928.

STATE APPROPRIATIONS.
Junketlng Committee Recommends
Sum Of $500, 7se.75.

Secretary Goldman of the junketing
committee, composed of Senator Dor
ris, Representative Norf1eet and Rep
resentative Woods, has completed the
report of that body, which was SUBJ
mitted to the general assembly. If Its
recommendations prevail the state in
stitutions will receive an aggregate of
5 3,601, 1875, which is one-third the
estimated of the state. Meth
institute. the state school for negro
youths, is taken into this calculation,
but this would not materially increase
the total, as the prison is practically
self-sustaining.
Two years ago, or rather for the
last biennial period, the states re-
ceipts from all sources were $11, 220,.
1887, but this included $475, 1878
received from the national govern
ment as reimbursement for a war
debt, and that is one large item which
a moi be included in the returns for
the coming biennial period, for which
the estimates put the figures at S10,-

ommendation for the creation of an
insurance fund of 100000 with which
to carry insurance on the state build
ings, m of which, except the execu-
tive mansion, is now protected. 1t
also suggests the appointment of an
expert accountant, who shall pay stat
ed visits to the several institutions,

ton being based on the ground that
the "junketing" committee is not al
lowed sufficient time on it's visits,
made every two years, to perform this
work as it should be done.
The largest single item in the re-
port is the appropriation for the state
university, $623,500. The school for
the blind, located in st. Louis, fares
fairly we'll in the report, which recon-
mends that it be given S104, 700. The
two new normal schools, created at
the 1905 session. one located at Mary
Vile and the other at Springfield, are
down for $500, 900 each, the amount
being necessarily large, because build
ings are to be erected and equipped.
The value of the buildings owned by
the state at it's several institutions is
stated to be IS, 5 900, and these have
been without insurance. The recon.
mendation for an insurance fund is
strengthened by the loss recently en-.
tailed upon the state by the burning
of the colony for the feeble-minded at
Marshall.
Two years ago the recommendations
of this committee were for a%ppropria.
tons aggregating s $500, 900, or $1,1O1,.
1878 less than is now recommended.
The report compliments the manage.
ment of the several institutions, and
makes no recommendations as to
changes in that respect.

His Practical Idea,

A benevolent old man who lived on
his farm in Iowa never refused shell
ter to any who might ask 1t Of him.
His many friends demonstrated with
him about this characteristic, know
ing that many INSCRIPTIONS hoboes
would avail themselves Of the oppor-
tunity, and that there was great dan
ger Of the old man being robbed. To
these remonstrances the old man re-
piled that he believed in practical
Christianity"
But" said one of his friends, this
seems very impractical. Suppose one
of these men took it into his head to
rob you one night?"
my dear young friend" was the re-
ply, II bid all enter in the name of
God, but / prove my belief in practi-
cal Christianity by locking up their
pants during the night"

Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory II the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, It is usually neces-
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and fneness of the fabric Is
hidden behind a paste Of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear-
ing quality Of the goods. This trouble
can be entirely overcome by using De-
fance Starch, as It can be applied
much more thinly because of Its great
er strength than other makes.

NERVOUS HEADACHES

Most Cases and Should Interest
Every Sufferer.

Nobody who has not endured the
suffering caused by nervous head
ache a realize the awful agony Of
it's victims. Worst of all. the ordin.
airy treatment cannot be relied upon
to cure nor even to give relief. Some
doctors will say that IL a person 10
subject to these headaches there IL
nothing that can be done to prevent
their recurrence.
Nervous headaches, as we'll as neu-
ralgia, are caused by lack of nutrition
the nerves are starved. The only
way to feed the nerves is through the
blood and 1t Is in this way that DR..
Williams Pink Pills have accom-
plished SO many remarkable cures.
Mrs. Addie Merrill, Of 80 Union
Street, Auburn, Me-, says: For
years l suffered from nervous head
aches, which would come on me every
FIVE or six weeks and continue for
several days. The pain was so severe
that l would be obliged to go to bed
for three or four days each time. II
was particularly intense over my right
eye. l tried medicines but got no re-
lief. had no appetite and when
the headache passed away l felt as IL
I had been sick for a month. My
blood was thin and I was pale, weak
and reduced in weight.
Il read about DR.. Williams Pink
Pills in a paper and decided to try
them. first noticed that they be-
gan to give me an appetite and I
commenced to gain in weight and
