for Allies"

Paris. Sept. 26.-The chamber OF
deputies in extraordinary session today

MOBILIZATION WILL
SHOW A DEFICIENCY
Army Will Be Short Of 687,-
600 Men Summoned.

Washington Sept. e6.-Therc is little
doubt now that large deficiency OF
men will he shown when the first in
crement of the national army, $4,000
men. has been mobiliZed.
The fighting strength Of the new d.
vision is now fixed at 1880 men. The
II guard divisions on that basis will
have a total strength of 437.500 men.
The guard probably brought into the
federal. service n total Of not more
than 100000 men, possibly less. 1t will
take, therefore. ut least $4,000 ma
tional army men to fill up the guard
divisions. Another 100000 Of the ma
tional army will go to the air service
and certainly as many more to other
special services. That would leave not
more than 100000 to form the 16 ma
tional army divisions. which should
have an aggregate war strength OF
4S3, 900.

MONTANA IS GROWING
A BUMPER BEET CROP
Product This Year Is Aver
aging High in Per Cent
of Sugar Content.
CHICAGO MANS VIEW
Agricultural Editor of Facts
About Sugar" Inspects
Local Plant.
CHICAGO MANS VIEW

With 10000 acres Of land in Mon
tana devoted to sugar beet raising and
with a promise of high sugar con-
tent, prospects look bright for a
bumper crop for the state this year.
This was the statement made yester-
day by J. Arthur Brock of Chicago,
agricultural editor of Facts About
Sugar" Mr.. Brock is in Missoula in
specting the local plant.
Mr., Brock said yesterday that the
farmers OF the state. when they be-
come acquainted with the raising of
sugar beets. can make it one of the
most nrofita BILE industries.
Other Crops Help Beets.
BY planting wheat after beets have
been harvested the crop can be in
creased ~ per cent" said Mr.. Brock.
Barley increases the beet crop SO per
cent, oats As per cent. potatoes 46 per
cent and alfalfa % per cent so it is
plainly evident that the farmer can
make the beet crop a paying PROPOSE
ton and not neglect the growing of
other products"
Mr. Brock explained that the farm
ers We're greatly benefited by having a
sugar factory in their community be-
cause the factory furnishes agricul-
tural experts to help them in growing
their crops and meeting difficult prob
lens
Factory Starts Here November I.
The beet harvest began in Billings
September 2i and factory operations
will start October 10. The harvest in
Missoula this year will start October .
and the factory will not begin work
until November I. The lateness of
starting here is due to the fact that
the drought was longer here this
summer.
Montana has the chance to become
one of the biggest sugar producing
states of the Union" said Mr.. Brock
''As soon as the farmers understand
the growing of beets they can make a
great deal out OF the industry. The
state has plenty of excellent beet land
and there Is no reason why the farm :
ers cannot make the sugar beet pay
ing proposition"
The beet seed which was formerly
grown in Russia and Germany Is, now
being raised in the state. The sugar
company has go acres in beets fol
seed this year and next year they ex-
pect TO have twice that amount Of lane
for this purpose.

With some companions he was playing

fell. and Just before reaching the floor
struck pitchtork that was leaning
against the hay. One tine of the fork
passed through his body on the right
side, penetrating the web which con-

bowels, and he is resting easily. He
is virtually certain to recover unless
