BEET HARVEST
HAS COMMENCED
Dumps At Julesburg. Ovid, Hit,
Sedgwick And Dorsey Have
Been Opened; Factory Starts
At Sterling Today.

The following it taken from last
Mondays Sterling Republican Advo
cate Daily from which will be notec
that the Great Westerns sugar fac
tory expects to commence operations
today. The beet dump at Julesburp
was opened last Monday morning, and
the dumps at Ovid, Sedgwick, Hit and
dorsey also have been opened and the
beet growers in this section have COM
nienced the harvest of the large sugar
beet crop in this territory; and beet
hauling is the chief industry in the
valley at this time:
"All is hustling about the offices of
the Great Western Sugar Company
this week. in preparation for the
starting of the factory. The several
telephones are kept constantly busy
with the arrangement of details con-
cerning coal, cars, beet contracts and
the countless other matters which
must be decided in the conduct of q
big business. But things are mov-
ing in harmony and when the wheels
begin to moved Thursday morning a
force of about two hundred people will
go to work.
1.-The beet crop, according to W. S.
Garnsey Jr., manager of the factory.
will fall slightly short Of that of last
year, but the sugar content may be
somewhat larger. A change in the
form of contract made with farmers
will enable the beet growers to utilize
a larger part of their crop than in
CORNER years, and the output of the
, factory will probably be as large or
| larger than last year. The new con-
tract provided for unrestricted de-
liveries after October 8, instead of Oc-
tober Is as formerly. This change
means a larger part of the beet crop
will be harvested before frost, mas
much as the more mature ones may be
sold earlier.
"The factory is better equipped than
last season by the addition of ware
house with a capacity of $4,000 sacks
| of sugar and concrete coal pit, with
a capacity of 5000 tons. The Ignite
coal will be stored under water and in
this way all danger of spontaneous
combustion will be done away with.
| "Only unfavorable weather condi-
tions will prevent the opening of the
factory Thursday. The railroads are
| bit slow in supplying the needed
cars. Other details. however, have
for the most part been favorably ar
ranged. Workers have been engaged
and tn" force which goes to work
Thursday will probably be kept busy
at the factory for three and a half
months"

PRICE OF SUGAR BEETS TO
BE MATERIALLY ADVANCED

Beet growers from the territory
supplying the Is factories of the
Great Western Sugar company in Col
orado. Wyoming, Nebraska and Mon
tana, were given an intimation by
Chester S. Morey, chairman of the
board of directors, at a meeting re-
Gently held in Denver, that there
would be substantial advance i'll
the price paid for sugar beets in 1918
over the contract price this year.
There were three beet growers in
attendance from each of the 16 fac
tory districts at the meeting held ic
the office of the sugar company, an!
The discussion took wide range with
intimations from the farmers that it
was imperative that the price paid
for sugar beets be advanced for the
1918 crop. In his statement to the
farmers, Mr.. Morey promised that ev-
erything possible would be done to ar
rive at price satisfactory to all
concerned, which he said, would be
considered at meeting of the direc-
tors Of the company about October 8.

MORE TRUTH THAN POETRY
The New Army
(By James J. Montague)


They do not grumble nor complain,
They do not strut nor pull heroics,
They just went down and took their
train
A quiet bunch of Yankee stoics.
They know what they are going thru
And that is everything there's to
it
They've been allotted work to do
And they are going out to do it.
They do not boast of glorious deed,
For boasts are vain and cheap and
hollow;
They know just where their pathway
leads,
But that's the path they're going to
follow.
No tears. no cheers, as they depart
They ask from those they leave be-
hind them,
AS each one, with steady heart,
Goes out to do the task assigned
him.
No staggering, no craven fear,
No look of savage exultation
You see in any faces here,
But only grim determination
No emperor across the seas,
However vast his sovereign powers.
Had ever soldiers such as these
To save the throne on which he
covers.

Third Contingent Entrains
for u. S. Training Camp
LEFT THIS MORNING AT EARLY HOUR
Julesburg Concert Band And Julesburgs Patri-
otic Citizens Give Boys Rousing Farewell
Seventeen Men Comprised The Contingent
Which Left at 4:3O This Morning.

At the sound of the shrill blast of
the fire whistle, the citizens of Jules
burg were awakened at the early hour
of three-thirty o'clock this morning
The occasion was the near approach
of the hour when Sedgwick county's
third contingent of her quota to Un-
Gle Sans National Army were to de-
part for the training camp at Camp
Funston, Fort Riley, Kansas.
BY four o'clock large crowd of
our citizens were on our business
streets in preparation to bid fare
well" to the boys who would leave at
4:3O a. m. on the eastbound passen-
ger, No. 16. The members of the
Julesburg Concert Band assembled at
the corner of the Citizens National
Bank and formed line of march to
the depot, the departing soldier boys
falling in behind the band.
Upon the arrival at the depot
a large crowd of people were in wait
ing to accord the boys patriotic dem
onstration. While the band was play
ing, there were many hand shakes,
expressions of best wishes, kisses and
tears-all heartily giving the sincere
expression of heartfelt interest for the
well-being of the Boys" who were
leaving this community to don the
khaki uniform and serve their coun-

now grasp the opportunities that are
before US.
If outside capital is willing to come
into this territory and help us reap
untold benefits by identifying them
selves with their money and efforts
along development lines, are we not
foresighted enough to see that all viii!
benefit by giving our solid co-opera-
tion to their enterprise. which would
naturally mean our enterprise.
Shall we "Get-Together" in ear

capital has made US, and thus receive
numerous benefits, or shall we see the
golden opportunity slip" away at
this time. to be greatly regretted la
ter, after the smoke has rolled away
and we have arrived at the sensible
conclusion, that Pulling Together" is
the only means by which we will get
anywhere. The time is short, and it
is up to the people of Sedgwick coun-
ty and tributary territory to make
their decision. Are we to get the big
things? Or are we not to get them !?
That's the question as we view it.

try in the present crisis, in which the
liberty of the world is at stake.
There were wives and mothers, fa-
theirs and brothers with tear-dimmed
eyes, who stood close to their boys,
and there were sweethearts, too, all
who assumed courageous bearing.
Then there were the many friends s.
moving here and there shaking hands
with now one. and now another of
the boys.
Each selected man wore the Nation
al Army badge upon his coat lapel.
There were II young men who left in
the third contingent. the eighteenth
man, Carl Wise, who was notified in
Texas by the local board to report
here, failing to show up, and it is
presumed he has been transferred to
Texas contingent, according to tele-
graphic dispatches. We do not know
what disposition will be made of this
matter; however the contingent leav-
ing here this morning was one man
short, the orders from headquarters
calling for l8 men from this county
The local board had no other man to
send as alternate at this time.
After the train had pulled in, the
boys boarded and from the platform
and the windows of the car, hearty
fareWells were exchanged B. D. Par
ker, Jr., president of the Julesburg
Commercial Club, stepped upon the
car platform, and led the crowd in
cheering the departing boys. Then
the train commenced to move, and was
soon on it's way eastward bound. The
boys were in charge of Ray johnson,
one of their number. They will trans
fer t" a special train at Grand Island,
where they will continue their jour-
ney to the training camp in company
with other contingents of various
counties in Nebraska.
Following is the list of the boys
who departed this morning:
Carl Edwin Franson. Edward
Russell Mason. Lee H. Matos,sh.
John Vernon Twomey. Tony Scha-
vone. William Critics, Charles

Good bye, Good Luck. and GCd

entire citizenship of Sedgwick coun-
ty to the young men who left at an
early hour this morning to serve their
country.
There yet remains four men to 20

at an early date, the names of these
