EUROPE NEEDS
BIG QUANTITY
OF SUGAR NOW
From Overseas Declares Dr..
Goerlings in Address before
the Indian Society.
,.y ...ee,.rro .srs.,


THE HAGUE, Netherlands; Jan. ..
Europe needs in the coming year
$500 900 tons OF sugar from over
seas, according to an address deliver
ed before the Indian Society OF The
Haugue by DR.. H. c. Prinson Geer-
lings. The speaker explained in de-
tail the effect Of the war on the sugar
position in the different European
countries, pointing out that France
had been the chief sufferer, since al
most the whole Of the sugar produc-
ing parts Of that country are In the
hands OF the Germans; the conse-
quence of which was that large ship
ments had to be made from the
United States and Cuba. In both
Germany and Austria the production
in the last year had been normal. In
peace time. Germany exported about
million tons annually; but It now
uses up all its surplus production at
home, largely as food for cattle and
as raw material for the extraction OF
yeast and spirits. Moreover, the
Belgian yield had been seized for the
use Of the German armies. and for
the civilian population Of the occu-
pied parts OF northern France.
On the whole, during the last year,
sugar prices in the producing coun-
tries Of Europe have not advanced
materially, except in the cases of
France and Of Great Britain, whose
governments, Immediately after Ger
many had prohibited the expectation
OF sugar, had bought 100000 tons
Of the commodity at high prices.
As regards the coming year, the
sugar production in France, the
said, Is estimated at only 10000
tons, or less. than one-quarter of the
normal consumption. Germany, even
with the use OF the Belgian crop, can
not produce more than barely suffici-
emit to cover its peoples needs; hence
the persistent inquiries for cattle fod-
der containing sugar. Germany can,
however. draw upon Austria, whose
production is estimated at a million
tons, of which nothing is available
for export. except, perhaps, to Ger
many. Russia will have a poor crop,
and will therefore have also nothing
for expectation.
On balance. Great Britain alone
will need to import 100000 tons,
and France over 100000 tons. All
far eastern countries show a steadily
increasing sugar consumption, and
according to DR.. Geerlings, there will
be bare half million tons available
for export from all countries east Of
Suez. Europe, therefore, has to look
for main supplies to the United
States, Cuba and the Antilles; but
even taking into account the export
able surplus from both North and
South Africa, there will be a deficit
Of roughly 100000 tons. Should
the war drag on for long time, the
European sugar production is certain
to be reduced considerably, to the
great benefit of the cane sugar pro-
ducing countries overseas.

Henry OIthoff Wins Case

Attorney J. B. Ormond has re-
ceived notice that the supreme court
has affirmed the judgement of the
district court in the case of Henry
OIthoff against the Great Northern.
This case was tried last spring and
a judgement of $41OO rendered in
favor or Mr.. Olthoff. The Great
Northern appeared from the order
of Judge Flaherty denying new trial,
and this order has been affirmed by
the appeal court.
Mr.. Olthoff was injured while
working as section man near Donnelly
in July, 1915. He and his companion
I'D left their handcar on the track and
were assisting an automobile stuck
in the mud nearby when the whistle
of freight train summoned them to
remUve the car. The train approached
so rapidly, however. that it struck
the car while the men were still in
the act of removing it, and the car
was demolished, and Mr.. Olthoff
thrown to the side of the track and
injured.

BIGGEST BRIDGE IN
COUNTY NEAR END
Flooring And Grading To Be
Done In Spring; Cost $500;
Is 100 Feet In Length.

The work of construction of the
biggest bridge in Stevens county was
completed this week. Cold weather
prevents the concrete flooring and
grading of the approaches that is
the only work to be done. This work
will be done early next spring.
The bridg' is south of Morris about
six miles on the state highway and
spans the Pomme de Terre river. 1t
is constructed of steel and concrete
and is 100 feet in length, consisting
of two so foot spans. The cost of the
bridge is SIS, 200. e
A force of twenty men or more
have been employed on the bridge for
more than three months. 1t was con-
structed by the Siverts Construction
Co. The bridge provides a more direct
route to Hancock from the west,
shortening the distance to that place
by more than a mile.

CHILDREN ASSIST IN
ANTI-"T. B." WAR
Grade School Pupils Sell Many
Red Cross Seals This
Week

Did you know that there is man
hunt being carried out in Morris :?
Are yoI sure that yuu are not one Of
the guilty persons for whom an eff
cient and merciless corps of grade
school children are searching every
crevice and Granny? Do not try to
escape; there is no way of evading
this company of youngsters who have
sworn binding oath to sell 10000
Red Cross Christmas Seals to the
residents of this city as Christmas
gift to Minnesota in the war on the
tuhercular germ, that is bieng waged
by the State Board of Health. "Down
with I. B." was the battle cry of
the "light brigade" that suld more
than 600 seals in the first SIX hours of
the campaign that started last Friday.
All the grades above the third grade
in the public schools are taking part
in the contest. A prize mas been off =
cred to the grade that sells the most
seals. Three pupils are chosen from
each room to sell seals. The pupils
select their own representatives.
Supt. Simonds who is directing the
campaign, hopes to sell the 10, 900
before the end of this week and send

a hurry up call for more ammunition
for the fight against the tubercular
germ.
Red Cross Christmas seals are the
real bullets of the holiday season.
Instead of causing death and mis-
cry they really save lives. People are
buying Christmas seals very literally
and they should; times are good,
business is lively and bank balances
are going up. Prosperity increases
our responsibility, as we'll as our
ability to help those who cannot help
themselves. To save the time of the
local businessmen, local campaign
managers are using the mail sale
method simply enclosing 100. seals.
This takes so we'll, that they often
receive a check for three or four times
the amount of the seals enclosed.
Only a few days remain before
Christmas. There is ample time,
however, for each one TO use a
number of seals. Buy just ten more
seals, and think of what it will
mean to the campaign. If each in
dividuaI in this prosperous commun-
ity would use just ten seals betwee zen
now and Christmas day, we could
win several of the awards offered
by the Public Health Association.
