Santa Fe Wins Prowers Tax Suit.

Lamar.-Prowers county will have
to return to the Golfers of the Santa
Fe railroad system $15.437O5 by de-
cision of the United States Circuit
Court of Colorado. 1t is tax suit.
The trouble arose over the assessment
made for 1905. The company, on the
advice of it's tax agent, refused 10 pa
the taxes to that county on the ground
that the company was overassessed
relative to the assessments made on
other property in Prowers county.
On January II, 1907, authorities seized
four of the Santa Fe locomotives and
compelled the company to pay in a
hurry $22,S46.23 taxes and $2,2S4.62
penalties.

To Open Large Tract of Land.

Meeker.-Investiga by local Of
ficers of the forestry bureau of the De-
rartment of Agriculture has shown
that l29 sections of land included in
the White River forest reserve, in
northwestern Colorado, is suitable
either for grazing or for agriculture,
and as a result it is to be eliminated
and thrown open to entry. The land
lies along the northern boundary OF
the reserve for the most part, and III
it is much land that some time ago
was made the subject of a paper by
D. c. Beaman, who asserted that it
was not properly included in the re-
serve, being more valuable for other
purposes than for the timber growing
upon it.

Grand Junction, Colo.-According
to Fred G. Holmes, manager of the
Grand Junction Sugar Company, who
is in Denver arranging for cars for the
fall and winter campaign of his fac
tory, the price of this commodity has
not reached it's climax
In his opinion, the price of sugar is
to soar even higher than it is at pres
ent, and it is probable, he states, that
the price will remain high during the
winter and will not be materially af-
fected by the crop now maturing.
The outlook for next year also is
bad, from the viewpoint of the con-
sumer, as beet seed has doubled in
price in the last few weeks and the
prospects are that it will go still
higher, thus making it necessary for
the sugar companies and the farmers
to raise their prices on the sugar beet
crop for next year, according to Mr..
Holmes.
We expect record crop of sugar
beets on the Western Slope" said Mr..
Holmes. I'VE have contracted for the
entire crop, which probably will be
about 10000 tons, or nearly 10000
IONS greater than ever before. From
this tonnage We expect to get approXi-
mately 100000 bags of sugar, each bag
containing 100 pounds, or a total of
100000 pounds for the refined pro-
duct.
For this product the farmers of the
Western Slope will receive approx
mately 100000; the exact amount can
not be given as we pay on the sliding
scale, guaranteeing s. a ton regardless
of the saccharine content of the beets
and paying more for each ton that
tests above certain per cent.
There are sixteen sugar factories
in Colorado and each of them will
have an unusually large crop to han
die. This will mean an exceptional
production and longer campaigns.
Il cannot predict-in fact, ! will
not venture to do so-the total pro
iuction of sugar in this state this year
but it is safe to say it will exceed
lldl VI lue last lew years I1OWeNe,
large it may be, it will be but a drop
in the bucket when compared with
what is needed for the worlds con
sumption. 1t will have absolutely nc
effect upon the price of the commodi
ty on the open market.
Back of the rise in the cost of su
gar, both at wholesale and retail, is
the fact that this years world produc
lion is approximately 100000 tons
of sugar under the average. That is
an immense amount; it is almost be
yond belief, and certainly beyond the
comprehension of majority of the
the market; probably there is, but the
shortage alone would cause material
increase in prices.
Extremely hot weather and drouths
in the German districts, and floods in
The cane districts of Cuba, indicate
that the crop that natures soon will
be short many millions of tons.
"rhe shortage of beets in the Ger
man districts can mean only that the
price will stay up almost beyond
reach, as the world looks to Europe
for its sugar supply. 1t also must
mean that there will be a shortage in
seed, and the seed men are foreseeine
that shortage already. So much so
in fact, that already the price has
been doubled"
