Las Anima. Sugar Factory to Run.

Las Rntmd6 Su0dT fdCloTy TO Kun.
Las Animas.-The outlook for the
beet crop in Bent county this year is
by far the best of any previous year
The weather conditions thus far have
been SO favorable toward this sugar
product that it leads one to believe
that the tonnage an acre will be great
er than ever before. The high price
paid on this years contract by the
American Beet Sugar Company for
beets has induced many who hereto
fore would not sign contracts to grow
beets. That the Las Animas factory
will be in operation this fall is now an
assured fact, as the company has sew
eral hundred more signed up by the
farmers thar is required. The Ameri-
can Beet Sugar Company has near ST.
000,O 900 invested in the Las Animas SUI
gar factory. 1t is equipped with the
latest and most modern machinery OF
any factory in the valley, and has ca
pacity of 700 tons of beets day. The
local factory was established here in
1907 and handled the beets of this
district during three successful cam
paigns following, since which time, ow-
ing to climatic conditions, it has not
been possible for the company to Sc
cure tonnage enough to justify its op-

New High Record Marks Are Made
by Canadian Pacific and
Other Stocks.
By THOMAS c. sHoTwELL.

New York, April L-Some new high
records were made to-day and many net
advances were recorded in active market.
The fact that tomorrow is a holiday
did not worry the traders. Trading con-
tinued on a heavy scale up to the very
close Of the day, and the last prices were
in most cases near the best figures.
Among those making new high records
for the year were Canadian Pacific,
American Canning common and pre-
ferred, United States Rubber. and st.
Paul. Steel led the market most OF the
day. There was an evident desire
among spectators to get out of Anal
gamated Copper and the copper list in
general Most OF them were OF the
opinion that the price of copper metal
longer a bullish. argument Utah, Copper
alone showed signs of accumulations,
but II has been held back while others
were rising.
Among the reasons for optimism was
the announS >ment that the British coal
mine strike Is TO be ended officially. The
defeat Of Socialism at Milwaukee also
continued to help sentiment, as its i'm
portance had not been fully realized the
previous day. Perhaps the greatest ar
gument for optimism Was the great flood
in the Mississippi Valley. The flood
promises To break all records. It will
cause millions OF dollars OF damage, but
It will do ten times Rs much good as
harm by enriching the valleys that are
flooded Furthermore. IL is a proof that
there Is an abundance Of water in the
country, and that insures big crops. Big
crops are the only thing needed TO make
a business boom absolutely certain.
Activity OF Steel shares was very large
~ the result of discovery on the part
OF some important interests that the net
earnings for the quarter just ended will
be somewhat better than expected. Wall
street estimates Of the quarters earn
ings have ranged between SIS, 9,O00. 900 and
s2l. Goa. .Oo0 1t Is more likely that the fg-
ures will be S24O0O.O00 or better. While
prices for Steel have been low. the ton
mage has been large. Besides. the profits
on cement made by the steel company
known to make II certain that the divi-
dend on the common stock is not in
jeopardy.
Strength of all the railroads was due
to the revival Of trade everywhere. In
some sections the unusually good aGrl-
cultural outlook helped. as, for instance,
in Rock Island. The ST. Paul advance
was due TO further evidence of the
statement made in this column some
time ago that ST. Paul affairs have
turned definitely for the better. In Wa
bash there was a demonstration that
surprised the street. but that should not
have surprised II. The preferred ad-
vanced pa points. and the per cent |
bonds were up more than a point.

CHEAP GAS WILL
COME In BOTTLES
Recent Discovery by Government
Chemist Will Reduce Price
Of Heat and Light.

Bottled light and heat that can bt
utilized anywhere in any climate at q
minimum cost is now possible through
a recent discovery OF a method OF lique'
flying natural gas by DR.. Walker A,
Smelling. the noted government chemist.
Incidentally. the discovery paves the
way for commercial use of millions OF
cubic feet OF natural gas that go to
waste in the petroleum fields Of the
country.
The discovery was only made after
DR.. Smelling had Hquefied several hun
dred cubic feet Of the gas. stored II in
a thick glass bowl and lighted his ONCE
in Pittsburg with 1t for several months.
The cost was less than common Hum
mating gas. The method Of liquehcation
has been embodied in pamphlet by the
Federal Bureau of Mines. and is now
being distributed generally through the
petroleum fields.
The gas is gathered from petroleum de-
posits by a pump and forced into a long
coil of steel piping and then to a COM
pressor, being gradually cooled two de-
grees centigrade. At the same time the
gas In the compressor Is subjected to be-
tween 100 and 500 pounds pressure to the
square inch- When the gas reaches
complete state of liquefication in the
course OF several hours. It is drawn on
In metal or thick glass containers capa-
BILE /of high internal pressure. In this
condition II can be shipped TO any climate.
All that Is necessary to secure the gas
Is, to tap the plug Of the container.
According to the government experts
the commercial possibilities of the dis
covery are unlimited.
The purest form Of natural gas, ideal
for lighting and heat. is passing into the
air as absolute waste at the rate Of
|. l.ooc 10000 cubic feet day throughout
the petroleum fields Of the country"
said DIR. LIS White. State geologist OF
West Virginia. The waste Is a national
II comes from uncontrolled
gas wells. petroleum wells. giant fam
beaus. and hundreds OF other ways too
TO mention. When one real
izes that the heating value Of Loo. .0Oo. 600
cubic feet Of natural gas is equivalent
to nearly 100000 bushels Of coal. the
enormity OF the waste can be imagined.
Any discovery that will utilize uncon-
trollcd gas for any sort of commercial
purpose. such as the Smelling discovery,
will open up a new and profitable field
In the petroleum industry"
