Beet Raisers Get
Great Returns On
This Years Crop

immigration Agent Howard of the
Burlington is back from the western
part OF Nebraska. having spent sew
crsl days iii the sugar beet districts in
the vicinity OF Scottsbluff and Ger
ms. According to Mr.. Howard, the
uect crop is enormous and is enrich
ing the tanners even to greater eX-
tcNt than is their wheat crop. Said
Ny, howard.
The beet sugar factories at Scots
blu% aHd Gering are running at ca
pacity both night and day and will
continue 10 do so until shout the first
Of the year. The tonnage Of beets
raised in western Nebraska this year
is record. Many OF the farmers are
receiving as much as 500 per acre
for the crop, ana ! heard OF some in
stances where the gross receipts
would he $l2S per acre. Beets are
running around FIVE and six tons per
acre and the contract price is $50 per
ton. The expense of raising the crop
is some $50 per acre, yet after paying
this, they have nice net profit. The
two factories will pay out close to
100000 TO the beet growers.
in addition to the profit on the
beets, there is a big profit on the tops,
as they yield about IS per acre as a
feed proposition, The tops are sold
to the cattle and sheep feeders and
the supply is nowhere as great as
the demand"

Fritz Kreisler, who is making a
tour of America this year, under the
direction of {. A. Ellis of Boston, is
to make his only appearance here at
the Auditorium on Monday evening,
December 4, as the third number Of
the Associated Retailers course.
Speaking of a recital he gave in
Symphony Hall, Boston, the Boston
Herald said:
"Kreisler's manner, like his play
ing, is always characterized by an air
of simplicity, strength and grace. 1t
was so yesterday. Usually in the past
there has been a certain personal
aloofness about him, however, that
has almost verged at times upon hau-
teur, but yesterday there we're few
signs Of this. The burning enthusi-
asm for his art and the music Of the
moment which he has heretofore re-
pressed beneath an intensely calm ex-
terror, seemed to burst all bounds,
Without an instant or trace OF
sentimentality, yet with ever glowing
sentiment; without a hint of extrava-
gance, yet with much more abandon
than has been his wont, he infused
visible fire into his work that made
all his playing memorable"

secured at Burgess-Nash Information
bureau.

Musical Notes.

The following editorial from the recent
Musical Courier tells something of the
community singing plan of San Francisco;
San Francisco is Joining enthusiastically
in the nation wide movement for the en-
enlargement Of community singing. and has
some very practical ideas on how to make
the scheme success Redfern MasonN Of
the San Francisco Examiner tells some Of
the details. He does not believe In the very
loose process OF simply calling people to-
gether and telling them to sing. Music
is an art, says Mr. Mason. the practice Of
an art requires skill. and skill only comes
with practice under good direction. It is
upon this well directed study that the COM
munity singing committee Of San Fran
cisco insists The classes are open to all
adults; no previous knowledge Of music
Is required; a charge Of 10 cents per lesson
will be made; Instruction will be given In
unison singing Of popular songs, especially
folksongs, including the learning by heart
Of chosen examples, both words and mel
odies by the classes; In the mastering of
the elements Of notation and rhythm; In
the progressive study OF part singing be-
ginning with simple harmonized chorals and
part songs and progressing gradually to the
singing Of numbers from oratorio and opera
and unaccompaned madrigals. The concur
renee of the singers with the responsible
directors in the choice of music will be
encouraged, so that the people may play as
large part as possible In their own musical
development The classes will ordinarily
be held In the public school buildings Of the
city. The administration OF the affairs Of
the organization Is vested In the committee
called together by THE Recreation League of
San Francisco"

EDITORS ALWAYS
ARE GOOD-NATURED
Not Even the Horde Which
Swooped Down, on Election
Night Could Peturb Them.
BUT ANYHOW, COME AGAIN
By A. r. GROH.


Editors are the best-natured class
OF men in the world. The proof of
this is the fact that they didn't kill,
injure or even speak sharply to any
OF the scores of self-invited guests
who crowded and cluttered up the Of

the telegraph and other editors,
bumped against their elbows, looked
over their shoulders, got in their
way when they rushed to the COM
posing room with sheaves of dis
" patches. Yet never peep" did these
good-natured editors give. They
just kept smiling and even answered
questions.
This doesn't refer to you, my dear
sir, if you were in the office. We're
always glad to see you, even on busy,
buzzy election nights. But did you
notice those other fellows standing
around? They're the guys l refer to,

like the giant Jefferis, big Baldrige,
peaceful Palmer, bucolic Ben Baker,
learned Learned, jestful Jerry How
ard, gregarious Greevy and many
others.
Getting Of the Goat
But that maverick bunch that we
never saw before would have gotten
the goats of any class of people on
earth except the editors. Their in
terrogations, argumentations and ex-
carnations filled the office.
THE supreme court has held
acclaimed wel-known member OF
the Economic league, sitting on the
edge of the telegraph editors desk
and shaking disputatious finger at
a leading member of the Philosophi-
cal club. It's case of an irresistible
force meeting all immovable body
when an Economic Lacquer and a
Philosophical clubber get to argify-
ing They quote the supreme court
+ and Henry James and Magma Charta
freely and neither ever convinces
t'other.
"How's TIL lection going?" gasped
a cadaverous young man, who was
out of breath from rushing up the
stairs. Being informed by one of the
good-natured editors, he told his
terrible situation. V
Bets on Hughes.
9TH reason I'm anxious is that I've
got 81 up on Hughes" he said. It's
amazing how he endured the long
suspense.
Say, George, can't you move your
convention back, away from the desks
a ittle?" one of the good natured edi-
tors remarked to an oracle who was
telling just how the final results
would be. That was the nearest that
these good-natured men came to re-
buking the crowd. Imagine what
would have have happened if this had
been behind the scenes in theater
or anywhere else than newspaper

"
Undoubtedly excellent musical Of
ferings have their share in the devel-
opment OF a musical public, but to
cook your goose you first must catch
him, and if people are not interested
enough to attend musical affairs at
all, or at best very seldom, it is not
much that they are going to learn to
know or like about music in that way,
nor are they going to support the
events. The real force in the devel-
opment of a musical public is the
growth of knowledge of the art in
each individual which goes to make
up that public. His delight and in
terest in it develops in due proportion
to his knowledge, and the desire to
know to what heights it is possible
for persons to rise in music and to
understand and enjoy the finished
product of it is what adds him to its
membership.
Not infreque ntly the question bobs
up about how long pupil should
study with teacher before the teach
err is fairly justified in putting him
upon a pupils recits! program as
his own pupil. Last year a case came
up in which a pupil had studied for
three years with one teacher and
through a disagreement left him and
went to another, who, after three
months put him upon pupils recital
as his own.
This hardly seems fair on the part
of the second teacher, as by this
probably thoughtless act, the public
might be led to believe that he was
better or worse teacher than he
really was, and he consequently re-
ceives credit or blame, that really be-
longs to the previous teacher. Some
teachers for this reason do not feel
justified in presenting pupil as their
own under a years training, thus CIV
ing the pupils time to assimilate their
ideas, and the habit of using them.
Other teachers feel that if they have
taught the pupils the numbers which
they are to present, they are justified
in presenting them as their own upon
pupils recital program in a shorter
period of time.
Frequently and by various instruc-
tors it has been suggested that all
doubts in any case would be removed
if teachers would only state at their
pupils recitals the amount of training
each pupil has had, both previous
training, and training with them.
Now comes the case of teacher
presenting some pupils in recital who
have studied many years with other
teachers as his own pupils after eight
or nine months training. He might
be justified in doing this, according
to the second point of view, providing
he had taught them the compositions
in which they appeared, and that all
the work Of technical mastery in the
difficult places and Interpretation had
been done by him. But when it comes

49, tons visit us and meet with
great proportionate and av-

and financial standpoint. The con-
certs and operas already given this
season have been unqualified sue
cesses and the artists who have al
ready been announced to appear are
among the greatest of the present
day. The Retailers course and that
of the Tuesday Morning Musical club
have already been announced. An
other series of concerts is announced
today. If plans carry Alright we will
have two and possibly three more
grand opera companies in the next
few months to come. Besides these,
other visiting artists will come, some
under municipal management, some
independently, and several troupes OF
ballet dances, Russian and classic,
each carrying its own orchestra to
play the classic music it aims to in
terpret by the dance. Symphony Or
chestras will be heard and perhaps a
little chamber music to gladden. the
hearts of all who love this kind Of
music. Several local recitals will also
be given, many of which are in the
course of preparation. In order to
