The Blonde EskimOs
From the New York Sun.

From the New 1Ork Sun.
 Nearly 400 specimens of hunting im- plements, domestic utensils and cloth ing made by the blonde Eskimosn of Coronation Gulf of Victoria Land, col lected by Capt Joseph Bernard while cruising for five years in that little- known Arctic region in his small trad ing vessel. the Teddy Bear, have just been purchased by the University of Pennsylvania for it's museum. In the opinion of experts the collection is the most noteworthy of the western hemi- sphere.

FARMERS WEEK
The Final Week of the Farmers
Course Proves a Big Success

This week is the last of the five
high school and the programs are in
charge of practical farmers. The whole
course has attracted much attention
and been of great practical benefit
to the young men, but the final weeks
programs are attracting the presence
and attention of the leading farmers
of all sections of the county and prov
ing big success. Dry farming day
brought large delegations from both
Baca and Kiowa counties and a num-
Der of exhibits showing some of the
wonderful results obtained by the
farmers and stockmen of those sec
tons.
Professors Mccain, Human and
Glover of the Fort Collins school and
p. X. Blinn of the Rocky Ford expert
mental station have been here all week
and all have been active in the work
and are giving much valuable inform
alton. The chairman of the various
sessions are active farmers and bust
ness men interested in the special
work treated at that session and are
giving much care and thought to the
preparation of their programs. The
most polished orator of the week prov
ed to be W. A. Brookshire, the land
locator and dry farmer, whose adj
dress of welcome on dry farming day
was a hum dinger.
Tuesday was dry farming day and
the morning program was in charge
of Hayes Williams, the afternoon of
Manager E. G. Meyer of the Helvetia
plant, and the evening E. E. Brown,
county agriculturist.
Dry Farming Day, Wednesday, the
morning chairman was N. Conner
Jones of Two Buttes. The fact that
Prof. H. w. Campbell was unable to
be present was a great disappoint-
ment, but the balance of the program
was carried out and gave many new
ideas as to the methods and success
of dry farming in this section.
Some of the leading points brought
out in these discussions will be given

Another Democrat Heard From

When New York's democratic rep
resentative in the senate said the
Wilson administration honeymoon
was over and the president would
have to look out, he expressed truth
that is becoming more evident with
each day that passes. About half
the prominent democrats in Washing
ton occasionally cast brickbat in the
direction of the white house and with
quite a few it has become a regular
habit. The latest to enter the lists
is Congressman Hobson of Alabama,
who boldly proclaims that Wilson is
the democratic party's greatest liza
bility.

Beet Growers Meeting

There was a large attendance of
growers at the meeting Monday after
noon in the commercial club rooma.
and the talk by o. H. Baxter, secre-
tary of the Otero County association,
on the cost of raising beets and SELL
ing the product on the markets was
listened to with close attention. He
first stated the growers in Otero coun-
ty with few exceptions were standing
out for Sc ton, and if all the grow
ers of the valley were of the same
mind and determination they would
surely get the price asked. Mr.. Bax-
ter said the sugar company gave out
the statement that they had paid the
farmers $1,500,0OO, harvested POI, :

Stockgrowers Meet

The annual meetning of the Bent
and Prcwers County Cattle and
Horse Growers Association was held
in Las Animas on Monday of this
week and was more largely attended
than any meeting of the association
for several years. Much interest in
the affairs of the organization was
shown and all seemed enthused with
the idea that the prospects were
brighter. The old officers were re-
elected as follows: Jas. Cushney,
president; H. Glasebrook, LIST vice
president; A. N. Parrish, End vice
president; p. G. Scott, treasurer; NJ.
j. McMillin, secretary; j. W. Moore,
assistant secretary.

All that is required to be transpor-
tation magnate now is to own a Ford
car. In nearly all of the large and
many of the small cities the "jitney'
bus is cutting into the profits of the
street car companies and making the
owners of autos rich. When it was at
first suggested that owners of ma
chimes could make any money carrying
passengers for five cent fare it was
thought to be impossible. A few,
wiser than the rest, started "jitney''
lines with their machines. 1t has been
demonstrated in San Francisco that
the owner of a car can clear from six
to ten dollars a day by carrying pas
sengers at the 'jitney" rate. In most
of the cities these buses follow the
routes of the regular street cars and
are making trips on regular sched-
ules. A 'jitney" by the way, is a
nickle, five cents.

sugar If this statement were cor
rect then they paid S7.44 a ton, but
as they paid only about $3.50 ton
the actual amount paid the growers
was $1,06S,480. The best authority
gives the cost of growing and mar
keting an acre of beets at 5000. So
if we multiply the 1900 acres by
S70.40 we have $1,196,S00 as the cost
to the farmer to get 81 ,O6S,4S0 which
the sugar company paid him, or an
actual loss of $12s,32O For the $780,
900 bags of sugar the company re-
|ceived 1926, 900, for the pulp $685.
42s, and for the syrup $110,Ss0, or a
total of $2,789,308 the company re-
ceived for 1900 acres of beets. To
manufacture these acres of beets into
sugar cost S6O4,SO0. Now add this
sum to the S1,O68,4S0 paid the farmer
and we have at total cost of 81 ,673,-
$50. Substract this sum from the
amount the company received and we
have a total profit for the company
of S1,116,02S.
W.. S. Ellenberger OF McClave, was
an interested listener, and at its con-
clusion made the growers a talk that
gave them new life and hope. He said
this was the time for the farmer to
stand firm and strong for his rights
and demands, that the war in Europe
would keep the price of sugar and
wheat up for several years, and now
was the time to stand together. He
thought the growers should create an
executive committee with full power
to make contracts with the sugar COM
pany, and that growers should turn
their acreage over to this committee.
As it now is the company makes the
contract and sets the price and deals
individually with hundreds of growers.
An executive committee could meet
the sugar officials, discuss all ques-
tions in business way, and the re-
suits he thought would be better for
all.
His remarks were received with ap-
plause, and Immediately the faces of
the auditors were frightened. Steps
were Immediately taken and an active
campaign will now be started to pool
all unsigned acreages. And one man
remarked that next year when this
Executive committee with 1900 acres
of beets in their control asked the
sugar company what price per ton
they would pay the grower might rest
assured that they would receive a sat
isfactory price.-Las Animas Demo-
