pertinent station of the highest type
 'Tft introduction of the sugar cane and the sugar bee: exhibits the high est type of applied agricultural sci ence that has yet been created. old fashioned slip-shod methods of pro- ducing wheat and cotton and corn are still in vogue in over ninty-five per cent of the country devoted to these industries. The growing of these crops until within a few years could not have been ranked as az riculturc but rather as highway rob- bery of the soil. As q result the average production, per acre, of these crops has fallen to a minimum. It would be impossible for farmers to cultivate sugar cane and sugar beetS in this objectionable way. They are driven by the necessities of the case to scientific methods of culture and fertilization
 Tn case of sugar beets the crops which are grown in rotation yield very much larger returns than when the old fashioned system of agri- culture prevailed. The culture of sugar producing plants thus becomes center of influence which teaches it's beneficent lesSions to all surround ing agriculture. The reflex action of this influence becomes a benefit to American agriculture the value of which it would be difficult to mea- sure in dollars and cents. To para lyze the sugar industry means to withdraw this splendid example and to leave agriculture to struggle fot q -of fr, he h. lens which without the aid if sugar culture it has been unable to solve. "The blow which free sugar would deal to the agricultural industry oi this country will be only partly felt by those directly engaged in the culture and manufacture of this pro- duct. Its staggering and numbing i influence would pervade all branches of agriculture and put back the ert I of development for years to come.
 In the past it cannot be sait l that the farmer has been the chic l beneficiary of the protective tariff i In fact. I believe he has never hat | his share of it's benefits. If adjust ments are to be made, and l would not say for d moment that such ad juStments are not necessary, let a. much as possible be saved to tn | farmer His efforts to make boti ends meet are becoming more ard uous each year. He does not ac cumulate great fortunes and mos frequently only a mere competence His voice is not heard in organizes protest against threatened danger | Even if Ire be the first to feel tn injury which legislation may Worl he is usually the last to protest.
 While there has been genera tendency toward reduction Of dutle this tendency has not reached il many cases the extent of the aboli ton of import duties altogether Thi
 is true of the greater number o changes which have been propose' in the duties of manufactured ar ticles. Why then, may we ask a farmers. has such an extreme mea
 sure been contemplated in respect t sugar?'

SEWER STORY
EXAGGERATED

Notice has been received by Mayor
Mayher from the state board OF
health calling attention to an open
sewer in the Clayton addition in the
north end OF the city. The refuse
from the canning factory and from
several residences empty into the
open ditch.
The city council tried to have a
sewer put in about one year ago and
the matter has been up again lately
1t is probable that the sewer will be
put in by the city and the charges
assessed against the property
An article appearing last night
in the Denver Times would lead &c
believe that the city sewers are in
bad shape in Greeley. when, as a
matter of fact, the open sewer in
question is in the extreme limit oi
