FARMERS BALK
ON BEET RAISING
GREAT WESTERN SUGAR COM
PANY HAVING TROUBLE GET
TING INDUSTRY START
ED in HILLS.

Lead, S. D.-According to Philip
Dale, agricultural superintendent of
the Great Western Sugar company, at
Belle Fourche, estimates on the sug-
sugar beet yield on the experimental
acreage, are said to average from
eight to fifteen tons per acre, tests
showing the sugar content to be from
Ia to 20 per cent. The entire crop
will be harvested by Nov. Is.
Acreage contracts for next years
crops are being let by local farmers
to representatives of the company,
though the plots are smaller than an
ticipated, and in many instances, the
farmers are showing marked reti-
cence in letting ground for beat Gull
tivation. This is considered serious
handicap, for the Great Western com
pany has expended large amounts in
experimental work. They desire now
the cooperation of the farmers and
IA guarantee tonnage of sugar beets,
before considering the erection of a
refinery.
The argument that sugar beet
factory means quicker development
for the country, a higher value on
lands, and bigger gains for the farm
er are purported to eventually arouse
universal interest and reasonable CO.
operation.

The getting back was lighter work

There was a deal of veied irony In

THE RESTORATION OF POLAND.

A Berlin wireless dispatch on Sun
day told of the proclamation of the
new and independent kingdom of Po-
land. 1t was pictured as momentous
event. Germany and Austria thus con-
fer independence upon a people who
have had more tnan their share of
persecution and suffering. The Ber-
lin news agency says of the pro
nouncement:
Thus the ancient kingdom of Po-
land, from which in the past came
famous rulers like the Jagellones
"a dynesty founded by Jagello which
reigned in Poland from 1886 to 1927
and glorious soldiers like the great
Sobieski (John III, King of Poland
in 1674-1696), is now resurrected
to new life.
THE Poles are free from Russian
oppression, no more to be tradden I'M
der the heels of the Cossacks. The lib
erty that had been destroyed CEN
fury ago on Russian instigation now
is restored The rule of the knout
has been abolished. Poland has been
given back to western civilization"
1t will be recalled that in the early
part of the war, the Russian car
issued proclamation extending au-
tonomy to Poland. Though Poland
was at that time IN the control of
Russian troops, no further move was
made to give to the Poles their own
government.
Germany a little later indicated
that she would insist upon an indie
pendent government for the Poles
and unofficial outlines of Germany's
peace terms have always included an
autonomous Poland.
Germany is quite willing to set up
this buffer state between herself and
the great Russian bear. 1t is not at all
difficult to accept Germany's SINGER
ity in her proclamation of Sunday
OF a new Poland with her own gov
eminent.
On the other hand, Warsaw and
Lublin are provinces which Russia
can i'll afford to lose Poland includes
the great manufacturing districts of
Russia. Warsaw was easily the most
important city in all Russia in the
amount of manufactured products.
The creation of an independent king
dom in Poland would be a severe
blow to the Industrial interests OF
Russia. Therefore we can all expect
that Russia will do all in her power
to bring the Polish provinces back
into the Russian Kingdom. So far as
this is concerned the neutral world
will hope that Russia will not have
her way. The Poles have had an hero
ic and yet a tragic history. Their state
has Dees, the football of princes for
centuries. Through it ALL they have
clung to their national aspirations
and await only the opportunity to
create a new and worthy nation. 1t
does violence to their racial distinc-
ton to be governed by some other
people. Their government belongs to
them and should not be appropriat-
ed either by Russia or by Germany.

ably set himself up as real genius
in foretelling coming events. But if
the truth is known, nobody knew

presidency was concerned. And not
