cents which shows a weak market for feeders. The cause of this is lack of rain.
 California has had but few scat tered rains and if the dry spell continues another 30 days the re- suit will be serious. Hay and grain is high and going higher and some ranches are very short on feed. A dry year in California will break the western feeder market for spring and fall, although the lack of rain will cause beef to advance in price.
 The market is strong on steers $50 to 6.oo, cows AIS to 500, veal 6.9o, canners $50 to 3.75.
 Phoenix and Imperial feeders will no doubt get their price this year, as dry weather will cause the packers to buy or go south to Texas. Of course it is possible if western prices advance too much that eastern packers can repeat their procedure of last year and ship in dressed beef.

produce this year an amount of sugar
greater than was the entire output Of
the United States from this source
only ten years ago. Fifteen million
dollars In round numbers will be
brought into the state from other parts
Of the country to pay for the output
Of the beet fields and factories be-
yond what is needed to ill the sweet
tooth of her home population. More
than 100000 is being paid to the
farmers Of the state for their beets.

tories, representing an investment of
over $2OOOO.OOO: give employment to
5000 men throughout the manufacture

well as on the agricultural side. there
fore. the making Of sugar has come to
be one Of the great industries Of the
state and an important factor in its
development and prosperity.
Means Added Employment.
It Is not only the farmers Of the
state aud the workers In the sugar
plants to whom the progress Of this
industry Is a matter Of importance.
The factories consume 100000 tons of
coal. besides great quantities Of lime
stone and other materials. The rail-
roads Of the state receive $2.OOOO 600 a
year for the transportation Of beets,
sugar, coal and other supplies. so that
the industry means added employment
to miners. railway workers and large
numbers Of other men engaged In In

to the manufacture Of sugar.

estate men familiar with conditions In
all sections report that land near
sugar factory Is almost uniformly
quoted at from $50 to $50 an acre
higher than land Of equal fertility and
equal irrigation facilities outside the
factory radius. 1t Is a conservative
estimate that the beet sugar industry
has added between $SOO0O.OOO and
$1OO,OOO.OOO to the permanent wealth
Of Colorado since its esta blishment
here.
Beet Pulp a. Feed.
Two Industries that have profited
greatly from the development of the
Colorado sugar industry are stock
feeding and poultry raising. 1t is
widely known that beet pulp is one of
the best feeds in the world for cattle.
and a great demand for it is growing
up among feeders and dairymen in all
parts Of the country. It remained,
however, for a Colorado poultryman to
discover the merits Of the sugar beet
for feeding chickens. discovery that
is especially important in New Of the
high price Of grain. he found that his
chickens were very fond Of beets, pick
ing to pieces the whole roots thrown
to them. A little experimenting
showed that with little corn on the
side sugar beets made an excellent
diet for poultry. and now a great many
poultry raisers grow a patch Of sugar
beets In order to furnish feed from
their own land. The saving Is 80 great
that poultry raising Is attracting a
great many persons in the neighbor-
hood. Of the cities or Of convenient

lions Of dollars that 1t has distributed
among her farmers, workmen and 9TH

than any other member Of the Union
in the preservation and development of
sugar production in the United States.
II the policy of encouraging the growth
within the United States Of the sugar
required to feed the American people
continues to receive the encouragement
Of the federal government, as it has for
the past fifteen years. there seems to
be no doubt that Colorado will con-
tinue to lead in this industry and to
add millions Of dollars year to the
returns from her beet fields and facto-
ries. That this is important to the con
sumers as we'll as to the producers of
sugar was shown plainly enough a
year ago. when sugar, which had gone
skyrocketing up to 10 cents pound In
the grocery stores and was being sold
at wholesale by the trust and other re-
fineries ut from $6.75 to $3.50 hun
dred pounds. came tumbling down to
its normal level as soon as the yield of
Colorado and other beet growing states
reached the market.

The gross grand list for 1911 falls a little short of the hundred million mark which had been expected, but reaches the total of $9e, ,494.5 517, which is an increase of $S, ,274, 4S3 over the grand list of 1910, and the largest in crease ever attained in a single year since the city went upon an ostensible hundred per cent. basis during the term of the late Mayor Walter B. BoStwick.
 About two-thirds of the increase is upon the property of manufacturing corporations. Such property is now as- sessed at SPA, ,997, ,506. It has a census value of $62, 900. 900.
 The wide discrepancy between the census value of this form of property and its assessed value for taxation led a number of men to make an investi- gation about five years ago, as the result of which it appeared that man. ufacturing property was much under taxed. Tie Farmer then conducted campaign for tax equalization, which was followed by the election of Mayor Buckingham, who began the work.
 The equalization Of the present year Is a continuance of that carried on by Mayor Buckingham 1t Is expected that the process of equa ization will property is brought up to 50,OO0, 900, which will be in about five years, ac- cording to the estimate of a member Of the board of assessors.
 Dwellings assessed at $4S, ,105, 900 con- stitute one-half of the grand list. A few years back these constituted al- most 60 per cent. of the grand list. It is estimated that at the conclu- sion of the er utilization process they should constitute not more than 35 per cent
