line troops. but are nov rushing
heavy reinforcements from the west

They express the opinion that the
issue depends on whether these arrive
In time.
Berlin reports the failure Of tho
Russian attack ON the forts east Of
Darkehmen in East Prussia, with

Colorado Produces Nearly ons.third Of
Total In United States.
Washington.-The Department ot
Agriculture estimates the beet and
sugar production of Colorado this year
rs follows: Area harvested, 1872, 900
acres: total production Of beets. 1.5S2.-
600 tons; average per acre, III tons:
value, tS.642.O00; average price per
ton, $5.57.
Sugar production. $4,000 tons: per
centage Of sugar extraction to beets.
1913; per short ton. Of beets, 246
pounds.
A statement by the Department OF
Agriculture also says:
Reports from sugar beet factories,
based chiefly upon results for the be-
ginning Of the campaign, indicate that
the area of beets harvested for sugar
making in 1914 will be $4,000 acres,
and the production s.147. 900 tons. The
total sugar production, according to
these preliminary returns, is expected
to be 664,000 short tons. which is about
5000 tons less than in 1918, and near
ly $4,000 less than in 1912.
while the beet crop is approximate
ly 100000 tons less in 1914 than in
1918, the average yield per acre in
1914 was exceeded only twice in the
past fourteen years; once in 1906,
when the average yield was 11.26 tons
per acre, and again In 1911, when the
average was 1868.
The average yield Of sugar per ton
Of beets promises to be practically the
