Misinformed Us Here
When the farmers of Bingham
county were troubled about what
to do regarding beets in 1905-06-07,
some pretty good farmers assured
them that if they raised sugar beets
they would exhaust their soil and
they would be ruined. They had
seen it done in Colorado, and it
would be done here if we stuck to it.
They said the beet crop was tit only
to be raised by poor people with large
families who we're willing to make
slaves of their children thinning and
hoeing beets and topping them in
the fall. They forgot to tell us that
they were not we'll informed, that
they were not sure, that they were
only speaking of certain hand-picked
farms that had been abused, and
they forgot to say that they were
prejudiced against intensive farm
ing. They forgot to say that the
beet seed of the future was going to
be planted thinner in the rows and
there would be less thinning. They
forgot to say that better implements
were being made so that the hoeing
would almost all be done by horse
power and later by gasoline power.
They forgot to say that a combined
puller a nd topper would be invented
that would speed up the beet harvest
and cut down the expense while at
the same time the yield and the in
come would be doubled and trebled.
Can't Stop 1t Now
But l am getting ahead of my sto-
nv. What that old Russian discov-
cred about beet roots is only the
small end of what I have to tell
you about the beet crop and what 1t
will do for us if we 60 at it right.
1t is not superior smartness on my

Did Not Tell Us Why

own country have kept telling us that
France, Belgium and Germany were
increasing the average yield of their
crops and that ours were diminish
ing, but they did not get the mes
sage to us that this wonderful i'm
provement had been going on just
when and where they had raised
sugar beets, mangels or turnips to
loosen up and fertilize the soil.
Fifteen years ago when people in
Bingham county had raised one or
two crops Of beets and were sick OF
It, the sugar company told us that If
we would keep on raising beets our
soil would improve, but they said
it would need to be fortified. None
of us wanted to spend one-half OF
our time hauling dung and the other
half bending over the sugar beets
at back breaking job, and we balk-
ed. They told US that our soil need
ed to be plowed deep, and that II
we kept on raising sugar beets the
soil would loosen up and get better
all the time, but they did not tell
us the beet roots would do the big
end Of the job. We thought we had
to do all that with horses and plows
and with the hoe, and good many
men told the sugar people where to

] PARIS.-I am able to give SOM
detailed figures showing the ingen
iousness of the allied proposal tina
America cancel the interest payments
on their Indebtedness to her. The
figures further show not only tina,
the United States would be the only
real sufferer and would pay the
lions share of the war costs, but
also that Great Britain would be
the chief beneficiary we're the
scheme now so energetically advo-
Gated in the inner councils of the
allies to 60 through.
If the United States cancels the in
terest payments, the loss will be
| 1885, 100000. If it does not cancel
them it is predicted the allies will
simply take their own time. paying.
The United States loaned out a
total of $1,000, 100000 to the allies,
as follows:
To England, $4,220,OOO,000.
To France, $2,S95, 100000.
To Italy, $1,611, 100000.
To Belgium, $339,000,000.
To Russia, $188,000,000.
To Serbia, $27, 100000.
To other nations, $136,000,000.
AS compared with this total, Eng
land loaned out $8,575, 100000
among her allies. But England owes
the United States only 1920, 000,-
600.
France, on the other hand, loaned
out $1,515, 900, 200, but owes the
United States $2,895, 900, 900.
France owes England $3.50, 000,-
600. Financial experts figure that
if America consents to cancel the
interest payments, England stands
to gain 1925, 100000 and France
1920, 900, both at Americas ex-
pense.
The semi-official Temps is urging
England to take the initiative in
cancelling interest payments, argu-
ing thus:
while naturally benefiting the
debtor nations, this arrangement
would become advantageous to Eng
land, because it would create pre-
cedent which the United States, once
the political tumult of the elections
is over, would be forced to follow.
England would then receive,
from the cancellation of the interest
payments owed America, sum in
excess to the loss occasioned by the
cancellation of the sums owed Eng
land by Europe, and, in addition,
she would have the credit of estab-
fishing the financial world upon a
firm basis, which is essential to Eng
lands financial and commercial
prosperity.
In view of the economic crisis
facing the world, we appear to Pre-
mier Lloyd George to undertake this
generous act"
A we'll known diplomat, comment
ing to me, said
THE scheme has found instant
favor in England, whose clever dip
lomats realize that Britain will find
it easy to be generous with Ameri-
can cash."
