SUGAR BEETs

In no beet sugar country | have
visited, have | found a disposition
to regret its establishment or the
money it cost to establish it. On
the contrary, it is recognized uni
versally as the father of modern
scientific agriculture, and the cul-
ture of beets has so greatly in
creased their yield of all other
crops grown in the rotation as to
make our yields look insignificant
in comparison.
The worn-out soils Of Germany
have been so rejuvenated by the
advent of sugar-beet culture, that
they now produce an average of
30 bushels of wheat to the acre to
our Is; SO bushels of oats to our
SO; 2OS bushels of potatoes to our
lO6; 39 bushels of barley to our "a
and 80 bushels of rye to our 1G
bushels. In 1907, from her 49,
0OO,0OO acres devoted to these five
crops, Germany harvested 3,O0O,-
100000 bushels, while from our
IS, 100000 acres devoted to the
same crops, we harvested but l.
S75 100000 bushels, or, in other
words, from less than one-haIf the
acreage, Germany harvested prac-
tically double the number of bush.
els which we harvested from ou1
virgin soils.-Truman G.. Palmer

THE NEW DEMOCRACY


Prof. Walter E. Weyl, Scotch
man, in his book, THE New Dem
ocracy," pays his respects to the
United States as follows:
-Four generations have passed
since CORVALLIS surrendered at
Yorktown. We have survived the
early test of poverty and inter
state pickering; we have grown in
wealth, power and prestige; we
cave issued triumphantly from
great civil war which put an end for
ever to chattel slavery. Our insti-
tutions have not become less pop
ular; our patriotism, though less
fervid, is perhaps deeper; our hope
OF equality is not quite dead.
Nevertheless to millions of men
there has come deep and bitter
establishment. We are no longer
the sole guardians of the ark of
the covenant. Europe does not
learn at our feet the facile Lessons
of democracy, but in some respects
has become our teacher. Foreign
observers describe our institutions
with CALLING lack of enthusiasm
and visitors from monarchial lands
applaud their native liberty while
condoling with us over our politi-
cal bosses, our railroad kings and
our senate oligarchies. A swelling
tide of native criticism overtops
each foreign detraction.
Even the masses of men-that
experimental, inventive but curl
ously conservative group of aver
age Americans though. voting in
stinctively, is beginning to feel
that in essential respects this ma
tion has not borne it's expected
fruits. No one believes after this
century Of progress that the child
rem of America are endowed with
equal opportunities of life, health,
education and fructifying leisure,
nor that success depends solely up
on individual deserts. Disen-
chanted with the glorious large
promises of '76, we are even like
our early European visitors begin
ming to ascribe all evils to political
institutions and occasionally the
unacknowledged thought arises,
is democracy, after all, failure
Is not the bureaucratic efficiency
of Prussia as good as the demo-
cratic laxness and corruption of
Pennsylvania Are not progress,
honesty, security, better than the
deceptive, inalienable rights? Does
democracy pay?'

GOOD ROADS NEWS

1t is now definitely decided that
an auto line will be constructed
from Alamosa through Monte Vista
Del Norte, Wagon Wheel Gap,
Creede and Lake City.
The state has appointed for this
work as follows:
Rio Grande county $17,5OO
Mineral county 10000
Hinsdale county 1000
1t is understood that each of the
counties will expend one dollar for
every two spent by the Highway
Commission. Rio Grande and
Mineral counties are prepared to
do their part. This is called route
No. 3S and is portion of the gen
eral plan for getting good roads
into and among the scenery and
trout fishing sections.
The route to Lake City is one
of the most attractive that could
have been selected and aside from
the Slumgullion, that portion from
the Continental divide to Lake
City can be cheaply constructed
and easily maintained.
The line on to Silverton, also
that crossing the Winnemuche
pass to Pagosa and Durango has
not been abandoned but will be
considered as soon AS the snow

NO PASSES

According to Chairman McDon-
aid of the republican state central
committee the railroads have solved
the transportation question for this
year. At a meeting of the repre-
sentatives of all the roads in Colo
RADIO held secretly Monday night
it was decided to decline to issue
any political transportation and in
stead to grant half rates to all con-
ventions. This means that the
delegates to the state, congressional,
judicial, county and other political
conventions must pay half rate.
For years past the custom has been
to furnish transportation free to
all delegates and alternates.

tions on his trip throughout the
