Western Newspaper Union News Service
Washington. D. C.-Methods of cul.
ture for the sugar beet in the Central.
the United States are dealt with in the
Department OF Agriculture's new bulle-
tin, Sugar Beet Growing Under Irri-
CATION" This is the second bulletin
Of interest to sugar beet growers
which has teen issued recently. The
other was entitled: Sugar Beet
Growing Under Humid Conditions"
and was of interest more particularly
to the northern portion of our coun-
try. where most OF the present sugar
beet crop is grown.
While there is a feeling Of safety In
having an unlimited supply of water
for irrigation purposes. 1t must always
be remembered fhat irrigation costs
money and labor. says the govern
ment's Investigator. Such precipita-
ton Of moisture then, as there Is in a
ocality should not be permitted to es-
cape from the soil with the idea that
more water can always be applied
when needed. All moisture that falls
upon the ground and is received and
retained by the soil acts upon the
plant foods day after day and accomp-
fishes most for plant growth. Precipi-
tation IL natures gift. and should
never be despised. The ground in irri-
gated sections where the sugar beet
plant is grown should be plowed to
good depth In the fall and every effort
made to retain the moisture in the
soil from the time the previous crop is
harvested until the beet crop is laid
by.
Much depends upon the condition Of
the soil as to whether or not 1t is able

several inches Of rainfall in the aggre-
gate. and yet they may have accomp-
lished little. II any. good SO far as
crop production is concerned, because
they failed to moisten the ground to .
sufficient depth. On the other hand,
one or more heavy, dashing rains may
show . satisfactory total rainfall for

tirely unsatisfactory from the stand

upon 1t and then to make every ef-
fort to retain that moisture in the

Points to BE Considered.
Other points to be considered by
growers of sugar beets under trrigar
ton are the following:
Sugar beet soil should be selected
with reference to its fertility, its phys
ical condition, its previous cropping,
and its ability to be properly drained
and irrigated.
The seed and root beds should be

Beet ground should never be

The soil should be we'll supplied

Beet seed should be planted In moist
soil, but not more than one and one

WILSON SAYS TOLL EXEMPTION
10 MISTAKEN ECONOMIC
POLICY.
Executive Tells Lawmakers Repeal of
Exemption Clause 10 Necessary
to Hold Respect Of For
sign Powers.

bency Of the White House, President
Wilson personally appealed to Con-
gress, assembled in Joint session, to
sustain the national honor of the Unit
ed States. in upholding treaty obligae
tions by repeating the Panama tolls
exception against which Great Britain
protests. He asked Congress to do
that "in support of the foreign policy
of the administration" and added that
an exemption for American ships not
only was mistaken economic pol
ICY" but was in contravention Of the
Hay.Pauncefote treaty. President Will
sons address, the shortest he has yet
delivered to Congress, exactly 42O
words. was as follows:
Gentlemen of the Congress- have
come to you ON an errand which can
be very briefly performed. but l beg
that you will not measure its i'm
portance by "the number Of SEN
tences in which l state 1t. No
communication I have addressed to
the Congress carried with 1t graver or
more far-reaching Implications to the
interest of the country. and l come
now to speak upon q matter with re-
gard to which l am charged In a pc
culiar degree. by the Constitution
itself, with personal responsibility.
Il have come to ask for the repeal
of that provision of the Panama Canal
Act of August "a, 1912. which exempts
vessels engaged in the coastwise trade
of the United States from payment Of
tolls, and to urge upon you the Justice
such repeal with the utmost earnest
ness of which am capable.
I'm my own judgment, very fully con-
sidered and maturely formed, that ex.
emption constitutes mistaken eco
nomic policy from every point of view.
and is. moreover, in a plain contra
vention of the treaty with Great Brit
ain concerning the canal. concluded on
November 18, 1901.
But have not come to you to urge
my personal views. l have come to
state to you fact and q situation.
Whatever may be our own differ.
ences of opinion concerning this much.
debated measure, its meaning is not
debated outside the United States. Ev.
erywhere else the language Of the
treaty is given but one interpretation
and that Interpretation precludes the
exemption l am asking you to repeal.
We consented to the treaty; Its Ian
guage we accepted, II we did not origi-
nate it; and we are too big, too pow
erful, too self-respecting nation to
interpret with too strained or refined
reading the words of our promises
Just because we have power enough to
give US leave to read them as we
please.
"The large thing to do is the only
thing we can afford to do. a voluntary
withdrawal from a position every
where questioned and misunderstood.
We ought to reverse our action with
out raising the question whether We
we're right or wrong. and so once more
deserve our reputation for generosity
and the redemption of every obligation
without quibble or hesitation.
II ask this of you in support Of the
foreign policy Of the administration.
shall not know how to deal with other
matters of even greater delicacy and
nearer consequence II you do not grant
It to me in ungrudging measure"

BUSY SEASON BEGINS
IN MONCURE's OFFICE
Collector OF Internal Revenue Asks
Early Payment of In
come Tax.
PAYABLE BEFORE JUNE 80
Richmond District in Scven-N1illion-
Dollar Class-Als0 Time to Apply
for Special Stamps for Liquor and
OleOmargarine.

Collector OF Internal Revenue Rich
ard c. l.. Moncurc and his office force
have entered upon what promises to
be the busiest season in the history
OF the Richmond Office. Tho income
tax. which has been assessed against
individuals and corporations. Is due
and payable on or before June 80, and
the rush to pay these taxes has al
ready begun.
Some idea OF the enormous amount
of work cntailed In the collection of
this money may be obtained when it
is known that every individual and
every corporation In the eastern half
OF the state Is required TO remit TO
the local Office of the internal rev.
cnuc service. While 1t is true that
many OF the taxpayers in the district
will avail themselves OF all OF the
time allowed By tho government, Col
lector Moncurc desires that payments
be made as early as possible. in order
that the accounts may DO handled
promptly and receipts issued quickly
TO the taxpayers.
To avoid penalty and interest, taxes
must be paid TO the collector in such
"A manner as will enable him TO deposit
them not later than the close OF bust
ness June 80. Payment may be
made in currency. post-ofiicc money or
der or certified check, and IL should
be borne in mind that the collector
cannot accept checks which are not
certified. When rcmittances of this
kind are received. they are invaria bly,
returned. subjecting tho taxpayer as
we'll az the revenue office TO consid-
cradle annoyance.
THIS DISTRICT IN
THE 100000 CLASS
This internal revenue district Is In
tho 100000 class. and stands we'll up
as one OF the big revenue producers
OF the country, and IL is thought b.
the local officials that the new income
tax paid by individuals and the big
Increase in the number OF corpora
tons liable 10 this tax will add Il
large sum TO the regular receipts.
Collector Moncure is ready to issue
all special tax stamps for the period
beginning on July !, 1914. and end
Ing on June 30. 1915. The law re-
quires that everybody holding special
tax stamps shall have them renewed
some time during the present month,
and included are all wholesale and re-
tall liquor dealers. malt distillers.
brewers, rectiiicrs and wholesale and
retail oleomargarine dealers. Tho at
tcntion OF cigar and tobacco manufac-
turers and leaf manufacturers is also
called to the requirement that they
must register for the coming fiscal
year.
Collector Moncure expects a rush OF
people 10 tho Office TO pay the neces-
sary corporation taxes. and, as the
special stamps VIII also be issued this
month, he has requested that the pay
mcnts he made as early as possible.
