Prospects Good for Sugar-Beet Crop


Sugar-beet growers are contracting
their 1919 crop OF beets for delivery
at $40 ton, price which is from
$3.50 to SIS a ton higher than pre-
war figures. According to a repre-
sentative of the United States depart
ment of agriculture, who recently re-
turned from an extensive trip through
the sugar-beet areas of the United
States, the prospects for the 1919
crop are excellent. An acreage in
crease of from 20 to 25 per cent over
the paintings of last year is indicated.
Soil conditions are better than usual
at this time of year in all parts of
the sugar-beet belt. However, there
is not as much snow in the mountains
as usual at this season, and unless
more snow falls there is some danger
of mountain water shortage for irri-
cation purposes in certain parts of
the sugar-beet area.
The United States consumes about
100000 tons of sugar year under
normal conditions, and of this amount
approximately 100000 tons, consist
ing of both beet and cane sugar. are
of domestic production. Approximate
ly 75 per cent of the home-raised su-
gar is made from beet roots and about
25 per cent from cane. Previous to
the war Uncle Sam imported practi-
cally all of his sugar-beet seed, but
due to the curtailment of foreign trade
in sugar-beet seed and the develop
ment of domestic beet-sugar indus
try, he is now able to produce about
so per cent of the seed needed for his
annual planting. The domestic pro
Unptinn nf H..
oped rapidly, and the prospects are
that in 1919 new record for home
grown seed will be established.

DELEGATES GET TO AGREE
Question Of Preparations Is Bound Up
With Decisions Reached-Polish
Goods to Enter Without
Any Taxes.

Paris.-It is now possible to give
an authoritative outline of the i'm
portant clauses that are being written
into the economic section of the final
peace treaty.
Germany's afterthe-war relations
with the world will largely determine
her ability to pay the damages as
sessed against her, and also affect the
conditions under which the other ma
tons will be able to transact business
with her
Unanimous Economic Agreement.
| 1t is learned that there has been a
unanimous agreement on the part of
the economic commission on the fol-
lowing precepts, which have been ap-
proved by the council Of four:
That for period of at least six
months the lowest tariff imposed by
Germany against any other nation up
to the time of the wars beginning
| shall be made the common tariff
against all nations. This is to pre-
vent discrimination against any one
|
should prove to be the cause of weak
ening the German ability to pay rep
irrational claims she is to have the
chance of revising the schedule of the
tariffs after conference with a Joint
allied commission

right of the free and unrestricted en-
try into German territory. This to
allow period of the readjustment in
which Frances new accession can
find other markets for the products
that for 40 years have had their larg-
est sale within the German empire.
Polish Goods to Enter Free.
The third point provides that for at
least is months goods from German
territory to be ceded to the new Po-
land shall have the right of the free
entry into German borders.
The difference in the length of the
periods between the French and Pol.
lsh clauses is due to the fact that the
Polish economists asked only for a
short period, evidently believing that
their products would be absorbed
more rapidly than the French think
will be true in their case.
The fourth point covers the right
OF entry, at either no tariff or under
pre-war schedules, of the vegetables
and fruits exported by Italy to Ger
many for period of at least two
and half years. This is an i'm.
portant factor in the Italian trade
which found large market in Ger.

FOR NEW GUARD
Special Inducements Offered to
Army and Reserve Veterans
for Enlistments
TO WEAR RED KEYSTONE

Offering the privilege of one year en-
listments as induccment to veterans of
the United States army and of the
Pennsylvania Reserve Militia, prospec-
tive Junior officers of the new National
Guard of Pennsylvania are now seek
ing recruits. They desire to be ready
with skeleton units when Major Gen
eral William G.. Pr-ce, Jr.. gives the
word to begin the organization of the

made by General Price within short
time. Upon his return from the con
vention Of the American Legion. he will
announce the names of the lieutenant
| colonies. majors and line officers of
the new organization.
II is his plan to have all branches
of the service start the drive at the
! same timet as the War Department

ganization federal recognition until the
units are filed according to law. As
soon as company, troop or battery
reaches its minimum strength. an army
officer will be sent to its armory and
muster it in. irrespective of the condi-
ton of other units in the same rcgi-
ment.
Companies OF 100 Men
When the required number of units
for battalion or squadron is mus
tered in, it's major will be assigned
and colonies and lieutenant colonels
will be the last to be recognized by the
federal government, because they must
have their battalion and squadron or
CARNATIONS filled up and also have the
headquarters company. supply com
pany and machine gun company of
| their organization also mustered in.
Lettered companies Of infantry will
be composed of three officers and 100
enlisted men. While the state will
recognize unit of sixty men the fed
eral government will not approve of
pay and equipment until it fulfils its
requirements.
The army will give n physical and
mental examination to all civilians who
enter the guard as officers. but any
officer entering the state service who
has a proper discharge from the army
will not be required to undergo either
the mental or physical examination.
Allow One Year Enlistments

army will be permitted to enlist for
one year periods, and the same provi
sion is made for men who rave served
