guesses Everyone is mystified while
Samson. that WileX wizard who plans
the surprise, Is going about chuekling 10
himself.
Last week the finger Of suspicion
pointed at two OF the seasons debutantes.
Both o. these young women are on the
list OF the princesses Of the court Both
are attractive brunettes The one is the
daughter OF prominent wholesale mer-
chant; the other, the daughter OF we'll
known banker.
Bun now suspicion lie shifting and CEN
tering upon another daughter Of omaha-
a petite brunette OF the dainty type, who
made her debut two years ago This
popular young woman is the daughter
Of wealthy Omaha banker. Strangely
enough, sher name does not appear upon
the list OF prinoesses. II Samson has
selected this young woman 10 wear the
royal crown, he will be DEPRESSING from
the custom OF former years which has
been 10 chose a young woman who Is
both a debutante and one OF the primo
esses OF the court.
II is rumored too that the custom OF
choosing the king from among the board
OF governors will not be followed this
year as in former years.
One Of the innovations in connection
with the ball itself win be that OF giving
the past queens OF the kingdom OF

SUGAR BEET TROUBLE
ANICABLY ADJUSTED
Farmers and Company Finally
Get Together and All
Is Serene.
Special TO The Tribune.

Special to The Tribune.
OGDEN, Feb 2l.-Concessions from
the beetgrowers and the officers OF the
Amalgamated Sugar company have re-
suited In an amicable adjustment OF the
differences which arose early In the sea-
son and which came near resulting in a
final decision on the part Of the farmers
to plant no beetS this year.
According 10 the announcement today,
a satisfactory settlement has been
reached by the committee representing
the heetgrowcrs of this section and the
officers OF the sugar company, after
long conference.
The beetgrowers have agreed to ac-
cept the so-called sliding scale OF
fered ty the sugar company early in the
season, or a fat rate OF S4.1o a ton, with
the understanding and agreement that
tho company will make number of i'm
provemenrs in the matter OF loading and
delivering beets. Beets to be delivered
TO the sugar factory before November
will be bought at a fiat rnte OF So q
ton regardless OF the Saccharlne quail
ties The sliding scale. which Will be
come optional after that date: provides
for the payment OF So ton for l. per
cent beets. s4.75 for IA per cent beets.
IL per cent feets fob. factory.
While the farmers have always con-
tended that II Is impossible for them TO
raise Is per cent beets at profit on
Weber county soil. and for this reason
have been demanding fat rate OF s. a
ton they have, through their committee
now optionally accepted tho sliding scale
or the S4.75 per ton fat rate. Officials
OF the sugar company say that II proper
care is taken in thinning the beets carly
in the season the growers can easily
raise tubers containing II per cent sac
charIne qualities. The company agrees
TO make the loading stations satisfactory
10 at least 15 per cent of the farmers in
terested in every district; TO take off
the three-and "a half pound limit as 10
weight Of beets from the contracts this
wear: 10 allow the beetcrowers TO en-
ploy chemist who. with the factory
chemist. Shall decide the per cent of
gaccharine and purity in the beets OF
each farmer; TO build a dumping plat
form and apparatus at each loading sta
ton where contracts are made for 500
acres OF bee,s.
Owing to the fact that the sugar com
psny is under contract with other in
terests for the beet pulp. the farmers
have receded from their demand for n
portion or the pulp output The sugar
company and the beetgrowers will each
select man who shall act as a media
tor and 20 whom all grievances shall he
taken. The expenses of both such rep
rcsenta tivcs is to be borne by the com
pany.
The foregoing agreement has been
signed by ]. L. Robson, J. r. Beus,
David Hancock and IT. F. Peterson, as
the committee representing the Weber
county beetgrowers. and the Amalgamated
Sugar company by Emil S. Rolapp.
