the weakness Of her defense.
Her mother-in-Iaw' response was
a shrug and a peculiar little smile
which Alison found irritating.

not been close friends" she insisted
Il don't like to hear her criticized

Jane laughed insinuatingly.

Mrs. Osborne sat up with uneX-

Alison. l think you are very un-

your loyalty and all that. and there
can be no misunderstanding here at

A Drop from The Clouds

Pres. Spreckles of Federal Sugar
Refining Co. says: Before the new
crop comes into the market we have
on hand 1,250OOO tons of sugar. Half
of Europe can purchase nothing. Su-
gar planters and those believing in
high prices have been living in FOOLS
paradise and have discussed high
prices so long that they see nothing
else. There never has been q real
shortage. Sugar prices, in line with
other commodities, must return to
normal and approach the pre-war fig
ure. Under government control, dis
placement of sugar caused apparent
shortage in certain localities"
There is more truth than poetry in
this statement and it would be well
for western sugar beet growers to be-
gin to understand the situation.
Scientific farming and maximum
tonnage per acre at a fair price per
ton must supercede war prices and
hap-hazard farming.

The Measure of Success

Chairman White felicitates the DEM

their committee came through with a
nrplus of fifteen thousand dollars. At
the same time Chairman Hays is ap-
pealing for funds to make up heavy
deficit. Financially. therefore. the
democrats seem to have made the best
showing. However. the main object
of political campaigns is to get votes
and Mr.. White has sad deficit in
chat line. while Mr.. Hays could trade
off enough Of his surplus at fifty cents
head to pay his deficit and never
miss them.
