The sugar-beet crop this year covers
almost a million acres as against the
five-year average of about two-thirds
Of a million; and the growing .condi-
ton on July was above the ten-year
average. There is more than half
million acres of sugar cane this year,
about half Of which is intended for
sugar and the other half for strip,
after deducting considerable amounts
for planting the next crop. There is
a substantial increase in acreage over
last year, especially in Louisiana,
where nearly all the cane sugar Of the
United States is made. The growing
condition Of the cane in Louisiana is
much better than last year, but con-
siderably under the average for the
past nine years.

SOLDIERS FOR WOOD
South Dakota and Kansas Veterans
to Back Him.

Mitchell, S. D.-SOldler boys who
saw service either in France or at
home are showing big enthusiasm for
the candidacy of Leonard Wood In
this state, according to W. II. King,
state manager, in statement here
today.
"This is surprising to some of those
who declared that soldiers would be
opposed to any army candidate" King
said. "But these boys know that Wood
Is totally different from some Of the
domineerlng officers Of the Second
Looie' type that they served under.
They know that he Is not milItarlst
In any sense Of the word, and those
who served under him In the Eighty.
ninth and Tenth divisions love him like
O father. Soldier clubs for Wood are
being organized all over the state and
J. ]. McGraw and Fred Stanley, Da,
tlonal vice chaEmen Of the Wood
boom, tell me that down IN Kansas,
where many of the boys of the Eighty
ninth lived, there is similar condi'
ton. Wood will win in walk'over In
