BEET SUGAR MAN :
ON CLOSING FACTORY

Mason City, Jan. 19.-This vicinity
has furnished very large part OF the
beets which were made into sugar by
the Iowa beet sugar factory which Is
located at Waverly. (
1t is evident from the statement
made by General Manager Earl c.
Moore, that there will be no more beet
sugar made by this Waverly factory
under present tariff conditions. A
good many farmers around here fig
ured that their beet crop was their
most profitable crop and they were
anticipating larger acreage than ever
until the receipt of the information
from the general manager. 1t Is as
follows:
"Suspension is due to the unfavor-
able condition of the sugar market,
and the prospect of further decline in
sugar prices. We have been obliged
to sell sugar from Csc to zoe per hun
dred pounds less than the price of a
further reductions You understand
in the beet sugar business we are COM
PEELED to anticipate the market one
seed from foreign countries, and we
have to contract with the growers and
make arrangements for labor nearly
one year ahead of the time we have
sugar to sell, and with the present
prospects it is simply a straight bust
ness proposition with us that we are
obliged to- close down. This is a
severe blow to the beet growers who
have furnished us with beets, to the
men we have furnished employment
to the citizens of Waverly and indirect
ly to the whole state of Iowa. Iowa
was so we'll thought of as beet sugar
state that in 1911 and in 1912 party
of men with sufficient capital has de.
c:ded to build factories at Usage and
Clear Lake. No one will now invest
a dollar in beet sugar factories under
present conditions"

Grinnell, Jan. 19.-While skating on
treacherous ice, Myron Thompson, a

drowned before aid could reach him.
A search for the body was made by
the fire department, and at o'clock
Saturday morning recovered the body
from the water There were two
holes in the ice at the scene Of the &C
cident; the search for the body was
made at the larger opening for hours.
Early Saturday morning cap was
seen in the small hole and it was only
few minutes before the body was re-
covered.
Thompson had large cut on the
back of the head and it is believed that
he was unconscious when he fell in
the water, which was only about five
feet deep.

eral services Saturday afternoon at

DISLIKE MEXICANS

Fairfield. Jan. 19.-Some eighty Bel
gian moulders at the plant of the Iowa
Malleable Iron Works declared they will
not return to work unless the Mexican
laborers employed there are discharg-

on the head with a heavy iron screw
and painfully injured. The blow was
struck in the back of the head by one
Of the MeXicans.
Following this disturbance the Bel
