sugar beet industry in our

started it looked as If the sugar BUSH
ness would be crippled. Instead, it has
been better than ever and everyone is
prosperous in our section. We have
Russians to work the sugar beet fields.
one person TO the acre, and they work
for $40 an acre during the season. This
scale is liable to increase ather than
diminish, as the Russians soon learn
that they can do better in the factories
ana mills. If our industry is to on
ttnue to prosper there will have to be
a revision of the sugar tariff, for I am
afraid that the growers in our section
Will not be able to operate long under
the present scheme"

from both the manufacturers and the
public in the Made in E Paso' exhibit"

The music department of the Wom-

departments career present a funny
program at its next meeting" said Mrs.

One thing which has struck me
forcibly in regard to Ell Paso." said
George Z. Briggs, of Chicago, "is the
fact that the business men and mer-
chants have more generally accented
modern methods Of doing business. In
former years it vas frequently the Gus
tom to drag a man into a place of
business and compel him to purchase
something, whether or not he wanted
IL The modern method, however, is to
sell people only those things they want
and, If possible, to avoid selling them
which is not certain to give
complete satisfaction. Almost all of
the places Of business in Ell Paso fol-

to the public" said district attorney W
w. Bridgers. But to the lawyers and
court officials it serves available pur-
pose and it would be almost impossi-
bic to conduct courts without this as
sistance from the newspapers. The
city has grown so fast that the old
fashioned method Of notifying the peo-
pie interested in a case by personal
calls, or by telephone, has become in
adequate. The lawyers watch the case
settings and know when to attenu
court and when to prepare their cases"
