said in Colorado in support of sugar
beets. The price per ton to the
farmer is always the same, regardless
of the fortunes of the factory. No
other crop that can be planted by
the farmer offers the same induce
ment in this particular.
mo crop raised in any section of
the country except in Colorado ap-
proaches the beet crop for net re-
turns to the farmer. The average
yield per acre harvested in Colorado
for the past five years has been
close to fourteen tons at IS a ton,
making gross return of about $40.
The average cost of raising the crop,
according to reports from all sec
tions of the state, is about $35 an
acre, leaving a net return of about
$50. The returns from the best
corn in the east, which is more unre-
liable than the beet crops, do not
average better than $18 an acre, and
hail, excessive rain or hot winds
ruin crop after crop when they would
not affect the farm value of the
beet crop to any appreciable extent"
The Denver paper tells of the
great value of the pulp as feed for
stock Actual results show that each
ton of pulp costing 40 cents puts
meat worth 50 on cattle. 1t is de-
c'ared the best food that can be
given stock for fattening purposes.
There are many other by-products,
such as mofalfa and denatured al
cohol, that add to the wealth of
beet producing and manufacturing
section. And the prosperity extends
to the towns. The News-Times says
Towns Become Thriving Cities.
The farmers i'm Colorado and the
iaborers in the beet fields and fac
tories are not the only persons who
have benefited to marked extent
hrolgh the development of the beet
sugar industry. Every factory town
| in the state has developed into a
thriving city since the factory was
established and the large sums of
money paid every year to the farm
ers and workers connected with the
industry have done much toward en-
rlching hundreds of merchants, bust
ness men and manufacturers depen-
INT upon the factory town trade.

reason for the gathering, alleging that

The venerable and respected victim

that the suiiiciency of the evidence on
which the defendant was held was a
question for a jury to decide and was not
habeas corpus. He cited Florida re-
