Of our Colorado farmers have been
feeding sugar beets and mangels to
cattle this winter in connection with
alfalfa and grain and they are well
pleased with the results. More acre
ege than ever will be given this sea-
SON to producing crops for this pur-
pose because it is paying invest
ment. There is no preceptible dlf-
ference in the feeding valae Of these
stock beets but the greater yield of
the half sugar and corn-saver beets
makes them in greater favor. From
twenty 1--we Io thirty toSs of such
beets can be grown on an acre while
sugar beets do not run so high and
furthermore the stock beets are far
more easily cultivated and harvested
Every man who has bunch Of cattle
should provide a sufficient quantity
of these roots to feed in the winter

HIGHLY PAID TEA TASTERs
in Many Respects These Experts
Have the Easiest Job In the
Realm of Work,

Who has the easiest Job In the
world? - said a Philadelphia grocer.
.''NoW guess you will spring the
name Of some politician with a gov.
eminent or state sinecure, but don't
mean that gentry. Ny question should
read, WHO, outside of politicians, has
the easiest job in the world? Well,
think the tea tasters of Europe put
forth about the least amount of labor
to get their big salaries of anybody
ever heard of. The tea tasters are
paid anywhere from $4,000 to s25. 900
q year. and on account of the sensi-
Itiveness of their taste are able only
to work at their jobs about 20 or 80
minutes a week. Just think of that,
$4,000 year for working 20 minutes
week. l suppose they are busy with
the rest of their time blowing In their
$4,000. A faster simply sips his tea,
he never swallows it, and the most OF
them are on the hunt for new blends,
although, Of course, they must contin-
Ually test their old established blends
to keep up the standard. / suppose
wine faster or a coffee faster also
probably gets in the same expensive
class, but I don't think there is any
doubt that the tea experts have the
easiest job for the money in the

New York.-One Of the worst No
Vember storms in recent years is
sweeping up the Atlantic coast. Storm
warnings are displayed along the
coast from Cape Henry to Eastport,
Me. The storm was accompanied by
heavy gales that caused numerous
shipWreCks and by a heavy fall of
snow. The two combined to interrupt
wire communication over a wide
stretch of country, and for a time
many points in Pennsylvania were
completely isolated.
Washington was almost entirely cut
off from New York during a preater
part Of the day, the conditions being
not unlike those prevailing during the
storm Of March 4, 1909, President
Taft's inauguration day.
A 50-mile gale sweeping Mineola
aviation field brought damage to six
aeFOplanes and wrecked six of nine
tents erected for the air men.
Terrific gales, driving snow and sleet
across the Hudson and turning the
Palisades into a typical winter land
scape. marked the progress of the
storm for many miles north of New
burg, while down the bay and outside
Sandy Hook the storm was so severe
as to cause ocean liners to be delayed
and serious damage to the steamship
Honduras of the Compagnie Generate
Trans-Atlantique.
The steamship Honduras is reported
as lying helpless outside of Sandy
Hook. while seas pile high all about
her, the wind driving rain and sleet
before it at terrific rate.
The snow which fell in the Hudson
valley just north of Newburg was prac-
tically the first of the season.
The snow in eastern Pennsylvania
was reported at from eighteen inches
to three feet deep. Five of the seven
collieries of the Susquehanna Coal
company in the Shamokin district had
to suspend operations on account of
the storm. There was a heavy snow
fall in Scranton.
The snowstorm extended to Harris
burg on the west, but did not come
further east in damaging proportions
than New Brunswick, N J.
In Philadelphia a high northwest
wind sweeping through the streets at
from 80 to 40 miles an hour came as a
climax to the storm of rain. sleet and
snow that swept the city for SO hours.
At Baltimore there was a heavy
snowstorm with the wind blowing at a
40-mile rate The snowfall was par.
erai throughout Maryland.

Griffith Makes Recommendation
Before Kalmia Club.
ESTIMATED 100000 ACRES
Timber Would Be Preserved for Wood
Using Industries and Tired Work
ers of the Future Would Be
Sure of a Summer Resort.

Madison.-State Forester E. NJ.
Griffith talked before the Kalmia club
in the residence of Mrs. a. o. Smith.
He made clear the lack of care
with which Wisconsin forests have
been treated; he compared the waste
in American forests with the con-
servation of similar tracts in Belgium
and other European countries; he laid
stress upon other values of the forest
than the mercantile values, mention
ing the immense amount of good
which invalids experience from excur-
sions into the forest tracts; he told
how the forests conserve the rainfall
and keep it to neutralize absence OF
rain for long periods.
wisconsin should have forest re-
serve OF approximately 100000 acres
in the splendid lake region, largely in
Oneida and Villas counties, in order to
protect the headwaters Of our i'm
portant rivers. provide q perpetual
supply Of timber, so as to keep our
wood-using industries within the
state; and, last, but not least. build
up a great resort region for the peo-
pie of Wisconsin, and also for the
thousands that will come from less
favored states.
THE lands within the forest re-
serve area, which are not owned b.
the state, are largely held by non
resident owners, and are absolutely
unprotected and therefore the danger
point from which start most of
the destructive forest fires. No
systematic forestry management is
possible until these lands are &C
quired by the state, and it is the poor
est possible kind of economy to put
off their purchase from year to year.
as they are deteriorating rapidly in
value, through recurring fires, and in
their present condition they block all
forestry progress.
1.-THE state must take broad, COM
prehensive stand if this great work is
to be carried out successfully, and in
order to provide the necessary funds
to purchase the lands and replant the
denuded areas, so that the reserves
will yield an increasing revenue to
the state, the legislature should pro-
vide for a general state tax of two
tenths Of a mill for a period Of 20
years.

SIX ARE HIT IN BIG
COAL LANDS FRAUD CASE
Gov. GiIIett and Congressman Nc
LachIin Are Alleged to Be In
Volved in Alaska Claims,

Spokane, Wash = Six men were
indicted by the federal grand
jury here charged with conspirng to
defraud the government of coal lands
in Alaska valued at s200.Oo0.000
Among those who were alleged to
be assignees Of one or more of the
claims are:
John H. McGraw, former governor
of Washington (died last JULY: Gov.
James N. Gillett. California; Congress
man McLachlin, California;: Henry T.
Oxnard. president of the American
Beet Sugar company; Harry White,
former mayor of Seattle.
The men indicted are:
Harry White, Raymond Brown, Spo-
kane; William L. Dunn, Spokane:
Charles F. Doughton. Seattle: Charles
A. Mckenzie, Seattle; Donald A Nc.
Kenzie. Washington D. C.
The indictments charge that the six
men had agreements with the claim
ants whereby they were to have
half interest in the claims. which
would give them more land than they
were lSSdlg SuliLl6O u. 106SS men
are said to be the controlling factors
in three groups Of coal lands known as
the NJ. A. Green property in the Kayak
mining district, each group represent
ing i31 claims OF 160 acres each.
The promin ence of the names In
volyed created a sensation here. as it
has been predicted that the names Of
the men who were really the "ones
higher up" would never come out in
court. The northwest and the west
coast are now wondering whether the
grand jury Of Spokane will take still
further radical steps in its recon-
mendations.
1t is not. however, the first time
that these names have been publicly
meutic.e ed in connection with the al
legged frauds. About year ago in a
magazine article the charge was
brought that Governor Gillett owned
coal land claims IN Alaska.

Wasted Time

Wasting time is not a usual flaw IN
the makeup of Chicago millionaires.
but concrete indictments can be made
from evidence on hand.
For instance, the estate of one resi-.
dent on the Lake Shore drive is en-

is Of large circumference. but it is
placed on the wall of the garage at
a point where few save the domestics
IN the kitchen can make observations.
Above the carriage door of a barn on
the Lake Shore drive is a huge clock
which is Illuminated at night. But
the shrubbery is so thick at the front
Of the yard and the clock is set so
low that the benefits derived by the
passing public are small. The time.

Price Of Ivory Increasinn-

Ivory continues to make rapid gains
sn cost and may sooner or later be in
a class with gold At the sales in
Europe the tremendous demand
pushes up the price. The allotment
for each sale seems to be the same.
and with a gaining consumption it is
logical to expect a price advance.
This will continue until a substi-
tute ivory is discovered OF ivory is Sc
cured IN greater quantities. Although
we buy { great many tusks for piano
keys and use the very latest method
Ct cutting and bleaching, the margin
of profit in finished key ivory is ex.
ceedingly small With the best of
skill in blocking the waste is enor.

tails in connection with key ivory man

money.
