THE WEALTH Of
WITH SUGAR
State Saves S15,OOO,OOO a
Year by Growing Own
Sugar and Supplies
Outside Markets.

Ten years ago the people Of the state
Of Michigan were paying $15,0OO,00O IL
year for sugar. The sugar was grown
OH plantations In the tropics, was re-
fined in the great trust ref1neries on the
Atlantic seaboard and was then
brought nearly Il thousand miles by
railroad to reach the domestic market.
Practically all Of the $15,0OO,OO0 went
out of Michigan and stayed out.
Today Michigan itself produces more
than $15,00O,0OO worth of sugar yearly
1t Is grown OH Michigan farms by
Michigan farmers, 1t is refined In fac
tories scattered through the farming
districts of the state, owned for the
most part by citizens-and partly by the
farmers themselves. Michigan not only
produces enough sugar to supply her
own people, but has a handsome sur
plus to sell in other states.
OF the $15,000.000 a year that is thus
saved to the people of the state the
farmers get more than half, a plump
$S,O00000 year of real money. Thus
the rapid growth Of the sugar produc-
Ing industry, which Is recognized as
the greatest agricultural development
The Yale expositor. (Yale, St. Clair County, Mich.) 1894-current, 1912-10-31

Of the state In recent times, has shifted
the balance of trade S30.0O0,OOO in
Michigan's favor. Its full effect has
been much greater than this, for It has
led to the building up of important
subsidiary Industries and to Il great in
crease in the agricultural and manu-
featuring wealth Of the state. Thirty
thousand Michigan farmers are now
raising beets ON their land, sixteen
sugar factories are in operation and
plans for four more plants have been
prepared.
While the whole state. of course. Is
better off for the development of the
new industry. the farmers apparently
have benefited more than any other
class. Figures collected from MI parts
OF the state show that the average in.
come from an acre of sugar beets runs
from $50 to Sti5, while the cost of max
ing the crop, if all the work is done by
hired labor. is about $50 an ncre. leav-
ing u net profit to the farmer of S25 TO
$50 an acre. which Is far better re-
turn than he can obtain from any Of
the staple cereal crops such as corn,
wheat or oats. In many instances much
higher returns are secured. Reports
from forty-Gve representative farmers
raising beets for the Sebewaing factory
showed that they realized an average
or sos an acre from their crop last
year The majority Of farmers en-
gagged in beet culture raise only as
many beets as they can care for by the
labor Of their own families or their
regular help and so are able to retain
the whole OF the proceeds of their crop
at the end of the season. This is shown
by the fact that the average size Of
Michigan beet fields is only five acres.
Although the beet sugar industry has
distributed vast sums annually among
the farmers and laborers Of Michigan.
Its greatest value to the state ultimate
~ will come from additions to its agri
cultural wealth through increased
yields of other farm crops grown in
rotation with sugar beets. That the
acreage yield of wheat rye, oats and
other crops grown on land that has
been devoted to beet culture is increas-
ed from 20 to 40 per cent is a recog-
nizef fact among farmers in the sugar
belt, who usually follow rotation in
which a given piece Of land is planted
to sugar beets one year in four. If this
rate of increase in the yield Of farm
crops were applied throughout the
state It would meanyan addition of over
$25.000.O00 to the annual return from
Michigan farms.
Many Of the farms in the regions
where the sugar beet has been intro
duced were heavily mortgaged ten
years ago. The mortgages have been
paid or so rapidly that today almost
the only farms that are not debt free
are those that have been bought with

FOR
STATE SENATOR.

David A. Fitzgibbon, of Port Huron,
was one of the strongest and most influ-
entail members of the last House of
Representatives. Mr. Fitzgibbon was
elected to I'LL vacancy caused by the
death of Charles NJ. Green, who died
during the regular session and while
Mr.. FitZgibbon did not have an oppor-
tunity to serve all of the regular ses-
sion, during his short career he demon
strated that he was legislator of
marked ability. lie was always found
advocating those measures that were
most beneficial for the majority of his
constituents. Being "A lawyer and fam
iliar with public speaking and fluent in
the use Of the English language, he was
looked upon as an active advocate on
the floor of the House when bills Of inn
portance were up for passage. Mr.. Fitz-
gibbon worked and assisted in the pass
age of the following bills:
\. Bills for the purity of elections,
among others the Copcly Corrupt Prac-
ticc Bill, which was similar to the Wis
consin State Law
b. a bill providing for shorter
working hours for women and children.
G. A bill providing for married
women retaining their own earnings.
u. The railway efficiency bill.
Il. The Safety Construction bill.
r. The Stephenson bill, which pro-
vidcS for Il specific tax ON vessel prop.
erty.
Mr. Fitzgibbon worked and voted for
the presidential primary and voted to
give it immediate effect. lie favored
and voted for the initiative, referen-
dun and recall. During the general
session, through his efforts men en-
ployed in railway shops and ON docks
and wharfs where dangerous machinery
is used, were included in Il bill provid-
ing for recovery to persons niured
while engaged i'm this extra hazardous
employment Mr.. Fitzgibbon was the
only member of either branch of the
Legislature TO secure important amend
mcnts to the Workingmcn 5 Compcnsa-
tiOn Law as originally drafted, all of
which amendments had Il tendency to
benefit the workingmcn and simplify
their method of securing just compen-
sation. lie was largely instrumental in
defeating the bill which gave Water
Power Companies the right to condemn
private property for their use and
benefit.
Mr.. FitzgibbOn, though n lawyer, was
invited to the meetings of the farmers
club and advised and voted with the
members of the House who were organ
lied for the purpose Of securing benc-
fetal legislation for the farmers of the
State. His work in this direction was
of such Importance that the Grange
Forum, in one of its issues, stated that
Mr.. Fitzgibbon was one of the ablcst
and most reliable men in the House ana
otherwise commended his record as Il
legislator.
Withal, Mr.. Ftzgibbon s record has
been one of accomplishment accompan-
led by the rare traits of pprSistcncy,
honesty and courage. He is not an cX-
pertinent. Your interests will he well
protected if he is elected to represent
YOU in the state Senate.

Why has John j. Bell been elected

on, naturally strong republican city A?
Because the people, irrespective of
party, have learned that they can trust
him implicitly and know he is alive
every minute and that while he is on
guard no scheme detrimental to that
interest can be struggled through with
out his vigorous protest.
Because he has all eye single to the
welfare of the whole peoble. No fac.
ton or clique can control his action.
His sole question on considering a
project is evil it benefit the people" :?
Ii he is satisfied 1t will, he will work
night and day for its accomplishment.
If he thinks it will not be in the inter
est Of the people he leaves no stone un-
turned to accomplish its defeat
Because he led the fight in behalf of
the people of the city against the cor
porations seeking and enjoying special
franchise privileges in the city and
what is more to his credit, he fought
SO vigorously that he won out in every
instance.
These are some Of the reasons why
Port Huron wants him for Mayor as
long as he will consent to act
Don't you think these are the quail
ties you want in your representative in

Elect John j. Bell to Congress and
you will have representative whowill
