DUMPING SUGAR TRUST

Some people seem to assume that
if the sugar trust in the west were
compelled to sell sugar at the same
price they receive for it after freight
ing it two or three thousand miles, it
would have the effect of closing their
mills and this great industry would
be lost to us. Such an assumption is
ludicrous in the extreme. 1t is stated
by persons in position to know, that
sugar can be produced at $500 per
hundred at some profit, so that if the
trust were compelled to sell all it's
product at $500 per hundred, it
would still be making 100 per cent
on it's entire output, which is not
usually regarded as very bad ratio

SNAKE AT SPRINGS

swimming at Alkali springs. While
near the springs last Sunday he had
peculiar experience. He ran across
joint snake in ravine and hit 1t
with a rock OF course every joint
flew apart and started to wiggle off.
Frank, just for joke, picked up
one of the joints and put it in his
pocket and then slipped off behind
the rocks and waited to see what
would happen. In about ten min
utes he heard a sort of low whistle
and then a rustling The head of
the joint snake came out of the sage
brush and looked around. 1t then
made a peculiar whistle and another
joint backed up and fastened on to
the head.
The head whistled twice and joint
No. came out, and so on, SO many
whistles for each joint, until it came
time for the one Frank had in his
pocket At its call the thing thresh-
ed about in the pocket like all pos
sessed, but couldn't get out OF
course, without the joint that fit, the
snake couldn't get together.
Frank said the last he saw of il
the head had taken charge of one
half and the tail the rest and had
gone off in different directions to
look up the missing joint. Frank
started to return to the springs and
had almost reached there with his
joint when an automobile footed
down the road This either scared
the joint or it was its coupling on
signal, for Frank says it managed to
flop out of his pocket and get away

HARRY LAUDER ON THRIFT

Harry Lauder, the famous
Scotch comedian, who has made
millions laugh, and who COM
mands a fabulous salary for his
vaudeville sketches, believes in
thrift. He wouldn't be a Scotch
man if he did not. Easy come,
easy GO" is the rule in profess
sions where big money is made
for little effort. The theatrical
profession is noted for it's spend
ing propensities, but Harry be-
lieves in saving. Out of his
earnings he accumulated enough
to subscribe $4,000 to the British
War Loan patriotism at four
per cent.
Harry has a few homely max
inns on thrift that have been
widely circulated during the war
period, in the hope that his fol-
lowers would profit thereby.
