ing campaign.
We know of no better way to
build up town than this meth
cd of drawing trade to our city.
The Grit Advocate wishes to com.
mend these merchants for the en-
terprise shown by them, and to
also state that they are deserving
of large patronage from the citi-
zens Of this territory at-large.
We are sorry to state that one
or two of our merchants have seen

gain day movement, which the
large majority of our business men
are very enthusiastic over. Else
where in prominent type will be
found a list of the merchants of
our city who have joined the Bar
gain Day event, and by 80 doing
are starting ing the foundation
for a bigger and better Julcsburg.
These merchants should have YOUR
first consideration when you come
to our city to do your trading.
If a community is to build
up its interests, there must be
some active interest shown. When
a merchant who is doing business
within our city absolutely refuses
to do his share towards building
'.up the city in which we all have
the welfare at heart, then we can
not understand why the commu-
nifty should cater to him in any
way whatsoever. The farmers
and residents of our town benefit
by Il Bargain Day held in our city
1t Is beyond question a splendid
enterprise for us all. 1t is true
that the merchant actually loses
on the article that he offers as
Bargain, and it takes more work
upon his part-but it is fact
that he directly benefits for future
business, aids materially in max
ing the town a better trade center
and secures the good will Of his
customers in different ways.
If "A merchant in our city doesn't
care to help build up the comnIu-
nifty, is afraid he is going to give
the customer something for moth
ing, then we state he isn't de-
serving Of the public's patronage,
for Community Interest is what
a largc ajority of our farmers
and business men have at heart.

SUGAR MILL Is
PROPHESIZED
BY GROWERS

IN taking WIN a NUMBER Vi
our farmers it seems 10 be con-
census Of opinion that the beet
growers of this section would like
very much to see sugar factory
built here. In fact the matter is
being generally talked Of, and a
factory is considered a vital need
to further the success Of the sugar
beet industry here.
The growing of sugar beets is
a profitable industry if the beets
are taken care of at harvest time
in a proper manner. 1t is fact
that the present factories of the
Great Western Sugar Company
are unable to properly handle the
immense amount of beets being
grown in this section, and it has
caused the beet grower a great
deal of inconvenience in harvest
ing his crop. We say that this
is not fair to the grower-and this
condition of affairs will have to be
remedied.
In the North Platte Valley at
Scottsbluff, Nebr., a large factory
is operated. Over across the river
two miles a new factory has been
constructed this year and still an
other is in the course of construct
ion at Bayard, Nebr. This makes
three factories within a radius of
IS miles. The beet growers in
that section have demanded that
adequate facilities be provided for
to insure the rapid handling of
their beets when they commence
harvesting the crop.
This section raises a large acre
ase-ef sugar keets as conditions.
now exist, and if conditions we're
bettered, a much larger acreage
would begrown. We don't think
that the beet grower is being given
fair play when he is compelled to
abide bv the delays which have
occurred in the valley this year. 1t
is is true that a much larger crop
is being harvested this year than
years previous, but that is all the
more reason that the facilities
should be adequate for the hand
ling Of the crop. When the grow.
er commences to move his crop,
he should be able to do so without
delay aud unnecessary expense,
ard our growers are alive to that
fact.
We are entitled to a new facto-
" in this territory. Enough
beets are grown here to warrant.
its operation-and a much larger
acreage could be contracted for IN
the event such an institution was
a reality here. We are informed
that the proposition is being agl-
tated-the direct need being felt
for the welfare of our growers.
This is one of the choice beet
growing sections and it should be
