cial Club that q vigorous campaign
now be waged in interesting othel
capital in the matter, and plans were
outlined whereby negotiations will b<
taken up in the immediate future. II
is regretted that the Great Westerr
Sugar Company has seen fit to dela /.
the proposition. but they have nov
given their decision and the way is
clear for negotiations with other in
terests.
As will be noted from Mr. Petri-
kin's letter, the Great Western Sugar
Company still has q big heart" for
other territories and faint heart
for this section. They want US to
still continue to ship our sugar beets
to factories in other territories. The
Colorado Nebraska Beet Growers As
sociation has shown the sugar compa-
ny where We have ample acreage to
more than warrant the establishment
of sugar factory. and they do not
dispute this fact. But shall We con-
tinue to supply outside factories with
our products.
The Colorado Nebraska Beet Grow
ers' Association was organized for the
purpose of securing a sugar factory
in the territory which it embraces,
and from all present indications there
will be no quitting until the goal is
reached. Not stone is going to be
left unturned towards pushing the
matter of interesting other capital.
1t is true that it will cost more at
the present time to build . sugar fac
tory on account of the high prices of
building materials, but it is also true
that the sugar company is gettin4 a
much higher price for the product of
their factories-that of sugar. Con-
siderable time and expense has already
been incurred by the people of this
territory in their efforts to secure a
sugar factory, looking forward to the
further development of this section in
which they have their interests at
stake. and the nail is going to be hit
on the head now harder than ever.
The people want to be met half way
$~'N 0AS 6ohk W OCHlAIlu SUCH.
With over 10000 acres of available
land for sugar beets in this territory
with maps and data all prepared, it
shouldn't be such hard proposition
to interest some outside capital, who
haven't other nearby factories to feed.
to come into the territory and receive
hearty cooperation and realize 4
profitable investment.
Let US ally ourselves closer than ev-
er and not be too easily discouraged
by the Great Western Sugar Company
who seem not to be inclined to aid in
our development, and only show a
keen interest in affairs. when thew
think that there is chance of losing
territory which they wish to contin-
lie to use as feeder" for other fac
tories. Watch our smoke.
The trend of events will show
whether or not territory inhabited
by progressive people can accom-
plish much desired results along de-
velopment lines, with hard and con-
sistent efforts.

EVERY MINE IN COUNTRY COW
Erred BY ORDER-MlDDLEM
AND RETAILERS TO BE TOLD
WHAT THEY CAN ASK.
EXECUTIVE is EXPECTED
TO APPOINT OVERSEER
County Is Divided Into 20 Districts
and Prices Fixed on Cost Of Pro-
duction Estimates Furnished by
Federal Trade Commission
After Full Investigation.

Washington, Aug. 22.-Bituminous
coal prices have been fixed by Presi-
dent Wilson for every mine in the
United States. The next step in coal
control, a White House announcement
said, will be to fix the prices to be
charged by middlemen and retailers.
Prices were set on cost Of produc-
ton estimates furnished by the Fed
eral Trade commission after months OF
exhaustive investigation. The country
Is divided into % districts.
The President named no agency to
carr ut the provisions CT bis order,
but r, expected soon to appoint coal
administrator who will be given entire
control Of the coal industry.
The prices named for run of mine
coal in the large producing districts
average slightly more than 81. In a
few districts they are below that fig
ure and in the Western territory they
are higher Washington state is high
est with $3.25.
May BE- Revised.
The presidents statement said in
part:
"The scale of prices prescribed for
bttuminous coal at the mines in the
several coal producing districts is sub
ject to reconsideration when the whole
method of administering the fuel sup
plies Of the country shall have been
satisfactorily organized and put into
operation. The prices are based upon
the actual cost Of production and are
deemed to be not only fair and just but
liberal as WELL"
Costs In Central States.
Costs named for Iowa were So for
mine run; 1926 on prepared sizes, and
$1.75 for slack or screenings. Those
for Montana are $2.75 mine run; 1895
prepared sizes, and $2.45 for slack or
screenings.
The prices fixed ranged from 20 to
IS per cent uaaer the maximum price
Of So fixed by government officials and
operators at conference here more
than month ago. The So price agree
recently have ranged far above the SO
limit.
The fixing Of prices was the Presi-
dents second step In the direction of
coal control and was taken under au-
thority given the executive in an
amendment to the food control bill.
The first was taken when the Presi-
dent named Robert s. Lovett as d.
rector Of transportation, and approved
an order issued by Mr. Lovett direct
ing that coal shipments to the North
west be given preference over other
goods.

Philip APPEALS /
TO WILSON ON COAL
Governor Asks President to Com.
pei Operators to Ship In Sup
ply of Anthracite.
MUCH SUFFERING is FEARED
The Northwest Will Experience Hard
ship This Coming Winter Unless
Drastic Action ls Taken by the
Federal Authorities.

Matlison.-GovernOr Philip, after
conference with the other members OF
the state council of defense and acting
as head of that body and as CHIEF
executice of the state, has made q de-
mand on Washington that coal prices
come down and the supply be in
creased.
Governor Philip sent the following
Telegram to President Wilson with In
structions that 1t be delivered to the
president personally:
Honorable Woodrow Wilson, Wash
ington, D. c.:
1.-THE hard coal supply In the state
of Wisconsin is not adequate and the
indications are that unless something
drastic be done by you this state and
the Northwest will be very short OF
anthracite coal during the coming
winter and much suffering will follow.
The receipts are short at all lake ports
and there is no indication now that
transportation will be available be-
tween this date and the closing OF
navigation, which Is little more than
ninety days from now. On behalf OF
the people of the state we appeal to
you to give such orders to coal prOduc-
ers and coal carriers as will insure q
reasonable supply of hard coal for this
section. The soft coal which the rail-
roads can bring to us is being used by
manufacturers and will, unless the sup
ply can be materially increased, be
continued to be consumed for that puf-
pose.-Emanuel L. Philip, Governor
of Wisconsin"
Direct to Wilson.
Because of the immense correspond
ence which the offices Of the president
are receiving some difficulty has been
encountered In reaching the chief exec
utive except on matters Of the most
vital importance Other matters are
handled by his aides.
Governor Philip Is determined,
however, that this appeal from the
state council of defense shall go direct
to President Wilson. He Is confident
that the president feels his interest is
demanded by the great states Of the
Northwest and that his personal action
will follow.

nection with the state fair will be that

This department will be under the SUI
pervision Of Fred w. Luening of Mil

ricultaral interests in the state a COM
prehensive view Of the markets Of the

and handling, as we'll as its relation to
health, will have large place in the
exhibit.

efforts plus the efforts Of the states
industries, which have prepared,
packed and made ready for the table

Of the industries related to agriculture
meat packing, canning, milk con-
densing retail dairying, sugar making,
etc.-should prove a revelation to the
fairs visitors.
Markets and their needs will be de-
picted. The farmer may study them
and Judge where lie his best opportuni-l
ties. The housewife may learn some
thing Of the economies Of buying. The
Industries themselves may have means
Of coming into contact with both the
producer and the consumer.
Exhibits will include: Meat and Its
preparation; milk, Its preparation.
condensing and conversion into butt
ter, cheese and other products; cold
storage. its proper use, Its advantages
and Its meaning to the farmer and city
consumer; the milling industry and
the consumption Of the grain OF the

In the interchange of foodstuffs; SUI
gar, the needs and achievements of the

Woman Workers Gain

The number Of woman employees
In Wisconsin has been increasing rap
idly, according to reports received by
the state Industrial commission. This
increase has been most marked In ma
chine shops.
Many large firms In Milwaukee and
elsewhere which have never before
employed women, during the last
month have placed women In their
shops at light operations. The reports
indicate that wherever women have
been tried they have given satisfaction
in processes not involving too hard
manual labor or high degree Of skill.
One great difficulty which the machine
shops have met with IN extending the
employment of women has been that
of getting competent forewomen-

Investigate Bakeries Of State.

A thorough investigation Of the bak-
cries Of the state has been under way
for the past two weeks. On August l,
the bakeries of the state were placed
under the supervision Of the state
dairy and food commission, and an
investigation of the methods used in
the operation of the bakeries was or
dered at once.
"In some Of the bakeries Of the
state we have found that the food
products are not properly stored and
we have already ordered this condi-
ton corrected In many cases. said
State Dairy and Food Commissioner
George ]. Weigle. '"These raw prod
ucts should be so stored that rats and
mice have little or no opportunity to
get at them. In some places in the state
we have found that sanitary rules have
not been fully observed.
1.-THE investigation which we have
ordered covers all phases In the OPP.
GRAFTON Of bakeries. One warning Will
be given to clean up. The second
warning will find the offender in court.
It has been necessary to bring one
Madison baker into court twice In the
last ten days and the next time we
will have to ask for the Jail sentence.
The people are entitled to clean food
not unsan1tary, wormy food. The
department invites the cooperation Of
the public in the enforcement Of the
food laws
There seems TO be feeling current
that since the war is on 1t Is permits
sible to foist adulterated products on
the public. An attempt has been made
to substitute glue for gelatin IN the
manufacture Of ice cream and gum
drops. Other schemes are being tried
under the war scare to force through
adulterants. Such will not be tolerat-
ed. We are having the fullest inves-
legations made Of oil food products,
and With the aid Of the public every
adulterator will be brought to court"

Road Building Experiments.

To find the best bodybuilding mate
rails and the best methods Of road
maintenance for the 5000 miles Of
state trunk line highways which 1t
will assume charge of next year, the
wisconsin state highway commission
has decided to conduct some unusu-
experiments In road-building and road
maintenance this season.
The most novel of these will be the
placing Of O carpet Of old straw, hay
or grass on the sand roads near Rio,
columbia county, and bind and pre-
serve the carpet with road oil and as
phatum. Another experiment, which
will be carried on In Milwaukee coun-
ty, will be the use Of metal REINFORCE
ment in concrete roads, the purpose
being to prevent the concrete from
cracking and to reduce the cost Of ma
terial by using less concrete, which
has doubled in price during the three
years past.
