"Nothinq But the Truth9

If you want to have an unusual experience, try telling the absolute truth in reply to every question asked you for 2t hours, and then you will be able to more than appreciate Max Figman. the clever comedian, whom Maxwell Amusement company will present at the Elks' theater next Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, February 19, 70 and T. in James Montgomery's version of Frederick lsham's latest work. Nothing But the Truth. Mr. Figman will be seen as q young stock broker, who bets $10.- 000, the money belonging to his fi- ancee, that he will positively tell the truth for 24 hours He makes the bet with his partners and one of their customers. and from that time on they try to trap his in every con ceivable Way But he beats them and turns the money over to his sweet heart, and all ends happily.
 Alr. Figman is a well known actor of farce and 1t is claimed by his managers that this play meets his quiet style of humor better than any thins he has ever done before. A capable and carefully selected cast will assist in the merry making.

More Profitable Taan wheat.

While some farmers FASTENED to
plant wheat instead Of beets those who
stayed with beets made more money.
In some sections Of the west beet
growers got as high as six to twelve
dollars an acre for the beet-top for
age.
When wheat returns TO near the
dollar mark the farmers will return
more largely to planting the sugar
beet.
II is interesting to note that while
the beet growers of Northeastern
Colorado will have received for this
years crop Of beets, approximately
81 100000 or about Sl.240,000 more
than they received from the 1917 crop
the fact remains that there were some
thing over 23.OOO less acres grown
than in 1917.
In other words, Colorado will have
received approximately ~ per cent in
creased gross proceeds from the beet
crop and produced about 20 per cent
less than in 1917.
The average price Of beets in 1917
in Northeastern Colorado was s7.35
per ton. The beets averaged 12 tons
to the acre thus yielding the farmer
S8s.20 per acre bross.
The 1918 price was $1,000. or $4,000
per acre gross on same tonnage.
