SUGAR BEES

The ranchmen are rather slow
in contracting acreage fer raising
sugar beets. The building of the
railroad will be commenced as
soon as the necessary 5000 acres
are contracted for and not before,

disposed to encourage the build
ing of sugar factory here to get

possible.
We understand that capital is
ready to go ahead as soon as sutti.

The old rule that nothing VEN
tured, nothing had is applicable
to the land owners in the Valley.
So don't wait for one another

Without meaning TO make disagreeable
criticism, observation leads me to believe
that II IL unconscious omissions Of etiquette
among women which cause trouble in the
many clubs and cooperative households
which come into existence in the summer.
More especially is this the case in clubs in
the woods and country, as well as at the
seaside, where three or four men take
a cottage 1t IL the wife OF one who stirs
up unpleasantness, and not uncommonly
dlsrupts the Organization, all because she
does not regard the place as the property

were her own. This Is tactless, II nothing
more, but when all the mon are paying an
equal share It Is Irritating. especially when
wives of other members observe scrupu-
lousy the bylaws OF the organization.
In summer clubs, shore places perhaps.
where men go often from town for sun
days, the members, when they are mar
ried. are apt to make their wives associ-
ate members, as 1t were, that the latter
may share the privilege Of the place. In
one such organisation Of four men. all
married, the club. after four years exis-
tsnce, Is about to dissolve entirely through
the Iack OF tact OF one Of the wives.

two or three days at time without her
