Washington. 1t is stated that
the plan adopted by former Presi-
dent Theodore Roosevelt to settle
the Pennsylvania anthracite strike
by military seizure of the mines
has been adopted by President Will
son in the Colorado strike situa-
tion at the ernest solicitation of his
advisers.
After giving Doth sides to the con-
troversy one more chance to arbitrate,
through five arbitrators-two to be Sc
lected by the mine owners, two by the
miners and one by the President-the
United States, if necessary, will seize
the mines and operate them as
military necessity
In taking this step the President
finally yields to his advisers, who have
pointed out to him that the situation
demands drastic treatment. Their ar
gument probably would have been inef-
fective had it not been for the recent
condition of disorder at Butte. This
has brought home to the President as
well as his advisers the fact that the
time has come when a conclusive step
must be taken to establish the rela-
tions of labor and capital on a safer,
saner basis than appears to prevail at
present Recent developments, mainly
the activity of red flag agitation, are
responsible for the growth of this con-
viction.
Another way of putting it is that the
administration sees the need of head
ing off the "inconsiderate rich" and
the radical labor agitators from pre-
cipitating a condition of chaos which
would work havoc in the industrial
world for years to come, and the Colo
rado situation presents the logical op-
portunity for the application of the
necessary preventive measures and the
psychological occasion" for making an
example of the individual it is desired
to reach

Denver.-Colorado fields last year
produced nearly one-third of the beet
sugar refined in the United States,
yielding enough to supply 5,5O0,000
people for year, according to a re-
port made public by the United States
Department of Agriculture.
Colorado factories produced 229,274
tons of sugar from 1,S40,653 tons of
beets. The total production of the ma
tion was 7S3,401 tons of sugar. Colo
rado led all beet-sugar states, Cali
fornia ranking next, with production
about three-fourths as great as Colo
radios.
The 1913 production in the nation
and in Colorado, too, was the greatest
in the history of the industry. Beets
were harvested from 16S,410 acres in
Colorado, the average yield being
1898 tons to the acre. The average
price to growers was 1857 ton, the
average price to the acre being s61.97
The price was 30 cents ton less than
in 1912, but IL cents a ton above the
price in 1911.
Each ton of Colorado beets yielded
249 pounds of sugar in 1913, against
263 in 1912 and 261 in 1911.
The return per acre to the growers
of beets in 1913 was as follows, ac-
cording to the government:
The Colorado statesman., 1914-06-20

OF the total domestic. production of
sugar in the United States in the past
three years, II per cent was beet
sugar and 90 per cent cane. This has
no reference to production in the coun-
try's insular possessions.
Colorado ranked fifth among all the
states in the country, June l, in the
condition of twenty-three crops re-
ported upon by the United States De-
partment of Agriculture.
The greatest gain made by any state
in the union was in Kansas where the
crop average was placed at 1929 COM
pared with the ten-year average. Cali
fornia, Mississippi and Nebraska were
the three other states whose crop con-
ditions exceeded Colorado's on June 1.
The crops included in this report
were winter wheat, apples, alfalfa,
sugar beets, barley, hemp, pears, rye,
peaches, raspberries, cantaloupe,
spring wheat, lima beans, hay, oats,
blackberries-all of which were 100
per cent-and above the ten-year aver
age, pasture, onions, cabbage, water
melons, sugar cane, clover and cotton,
all slightly under 100 per cent.
Government reports give an in
crease of almost $12,OO0,0OO over 1913
for the 1914 hay, rye, barley, wheat
and oat crop in Colorado. A 40 per
cent increase is estimated for the
states corn and sugar beet crop.
