sugar beets we got fine quality of
butter The Importance OF this is in
the fact that the farmer needs TO use
a root crop in his rotation to clear
the ground. The cultivation required
by such a crop improves the yield Of
all succeeding crops.
Europe had learned the value of the
beet, and the northern continental ma

into the cabinet the United States had
produced only 10000 tons of beet
sugar.

sons to contribute beet seed to begin
investigations, and we found that the
two northern tiers of states had the
most favorable conditions for beet cul-
ture. We made elaborate inquiries.
sent seed in all directions and had the
beets sent back TO us for testings.
At the same time We started en-
couraging beet growing in the north
we began to stimulate the growing of
rice in the south. And l anticipated
that by this time our farmers would
be growing enough of each Of these

grow today substantially as much rice
as is consumed in the United States,
the beet crop furnishes only a small
proportion OF our sugar. 1t is more
difficult 10 educate our farmers TO
beet raising. 1t is n more complicated

Last year our sugar beet crop netted
500, 455 tons OF sugar, worth $50, 505,-

$2d,350.000 for the beets, a fraction

The race between Judge Frank
Park, Of Sylvester, and Roscoe Luke,
OF Townsville for the place in Con-
gress made vacant recently by the
death of Judge Anderson Rodden-
berry was extremely interesting, al
though not at all spectacular. 1t was
evident enough all along that the
race was between these two, as Judge
CoVlngton, while always sure OF a
good complimentary vote, never
seemed at all likely to win.
Judge Parks victory over the
Thomasville man was rather narrow,
but all the more TO his credit, be-
cause OF that, perhaps. Both are
strictly high grade men. and either
one in the National House could
hardly fail to make good.
In the earlier stages OF the fight
1t looked as If Luke had a shade the
better OF 1t, but as the race drew to
close IT became plain enough that it
would require a count Of the vote to
name the winner. The Thomasvllle
hackers OF Luke certainly stood by
their man to the last ditch, and they
never ceased to claim victory for him,
even after the polls had closed on
Wednesday.
The result OF this race leaves one
thing still in doubt, however; t. e.:
Is it advisable for a Judge Of the
Superior Court to resign his seat on
the bench before entering a race for
Congress?
