SUGAR FAC.
TORY IS SEEN
in DISTANCE
In a Short Time Now
We Will Know Exact
Acreage of Lesiti-
mate Beet Land

The work of securing sugar
heet acreage for sugar factory
III this territory goes merrily on.
Reports are coming in which are
highly encouraging to the board
OF control OF the association. The
canvass is being made In care
fu! and conservative way, and
when the work is completed, the
board will be in possession of
complete data which will be ample
evidence that there is more than
enough legitimate sugar beet acre
age to maintain sugar factory
in the territory. For illustra-
ton, we might state that there is
no doubt now but what fully
twice as much acreage will he
secured as was expected in divi-
sion No. 4, which comprises the
Big Springs, Brule and Ogallala
territories.
Work will soon commence in
division No. 5, which takes in
the Lodgepole valley. When the
canvass is completed in this Sec
ton, the work of the new terri
tory in which the beet industry
will be expanded will have as
sumed big proportions. These
respective sections are going to
open up a most fertile beet rails
ing territory, and adding this
new territory, with the present
beet raising section, namely the
.Julesbrrg Irrigation district, there
will be easily enough acreage of
sugar beet land, to warrant the
building ofa sugar factory.
A sugar factory in this terri.
tory will be monument of our
prosperity. 1t will stand for the
manufacture Of home products,
advanced values in land and
prosperous conditions in general.
The territory will be benefited
as a whole and its people will be
proud of such an institution in
more ways than one. A large
number of new settlers will flock
here to play their part in aiding
the further development of the
expanded industry Better mar
kets will be created in which
there is bound to result mutual
benefit to the farmer, stock raiser
and the business man. All will
receive their proportionate share.
IF we were to announce in our
next weeks issue that ground
was broken for the foundation Of
q modern sugar factory, and that
no longer would the sugar beets
raised in this territory be shipped
to factories outside what would
your attitude be in the matter?
Would you throw your hat in

Much Money Is Lost Because Farmers
Do Not Use Business Methods in
Selling Their Produce.
By ]. F. Nicholson, Marketing Spe-
cialist, Extension Division,
University of Arkansas.

Farming is business and demands
the use Of business methods. A few
years ago farm products We're not 50
widely distributed as they are today.
Then the farmer could load his prod
uets on his wagon, drive TO town and
dispose OF them with little difficulty.
Now he generally finds that some
one else has been to his market. Can
taloupes are there from far distant
states when his cantaloupes should
have filled the demand Butter has
been shipped in from a large cream
cry hundreds of=miles distant when
his butter should have supplied the
wants of that locality and even the
bacon, thathe used 70 furnish. now
comes from packing plants that he
never heard Of before. This change
IS due to increasing competition on
the part of producers everywhere.
Groups of farmers unite their efforts
in producing given food crop. They
find they must seek larger and more
extensive markets They push the
products out farther and farther un-
til they reach every corner of the
earth. Unless the local grower can
compete in quality and kind, he finds
that the other fellow has taken his
place on his home market The local
grower Is soon convinced that he is
in competitive game Instead q
bemoaning his fate he determines
that to succeed he must follow the

Kenneth Eugene Plumlee was born
February 20, 1916, and died Septem-

Kenneth Eugene was the son of
George and Sarah Plumlee. He had
been i'll since December, and died at
twelve o'clock, noon, Sunday. The
body was laid to rest Monday in Zion
cemetery, with funeral services con-
Quoted by the writer.
He was an extraordinary bright
child, but as is often the case, the
brightest and most beautiful flowers
never bloom, so the brightest and most
promising lives never come to ma
turity. Jesus said: Suffer little
children to come unto me, and forbid
them not for of such is the Kingdom
Of Heaven" Kenneth needed the call
and has joined the Heavenly band.
To the father and mother let US say:
Weep not, but rejoice at the good
fortune of your child; for he is now
safe IN the arms of Jesus, free from
afflietion and pain and death
May Gods benedietion and grace be
upon the parents and all relatives and
friends who knew and loved the child
The child cannot come back, but you
can go to him
