lions paid for beets for the liquid
alton OF all sorts of obligations. SO
why should our farmers take un-
necessary risks and gamble on any
uncertain crop For the past thirty
years the value and entire depend
ability Of sugar beets has been clear
ly demonstrated.
There are, however, still other ad-
vantages derived from the sugar beet
crop that the farmer does not obtain
from any other. The money he re-
ceives for the beets themselves, is
but one part OF his income from this
crop. The by-products alone from
an acre Of sugar beets will produce
as much human food In the form OF
meat. as will the entire product OF
an acre OF corn. Dairymen and cattle
feeders are always eager to obtain
the tops, molasses and pulp from
sugar beets, as their value is univers-
ally appreciated.
Another phase Of the Sugar Beet
Industry is of interest. Utah Sugar
Companies produce approximately
four and one-half million bags Of
sugar each year. or this amount
very close to IS per cent is sold ous-
side Of the State. Thus every year

It is not known what price the crop
will bring. The farmer takes a
chance and hopes for the best, and
often that turns out to be not very
good. Indeed, the situation this fall
as regards potatoes is typical Of what
frequently happens. A bumper crop
comes and the price consequently
drops so low that 1t doesn't pay 10
complete the harvest, and the farmer
often can't sell his crop at all. This
situation might very possibly occur
with any Of the crops mentioned, but
1t never could occur with Sugar
Beets. That's what we mean by des-
ignating the Sugar Beet Crop as the
only dependable crop.
The Sugar Companies are always
ready to buy all the beets produced
regardless OF how great the quantity
may be. The rrice paid is guaran-
teed and no bumper crop can depress
that price. There is always an i'm
mediate cash market for beets, and

orally has come to look to the mil.

thinks, that 1T is better that they
should build such for themselves than
that he should do 1t for them, 1t il
for this reason that he pays them "a

/ that he cut the wages OF your people
and give what he saves thereby to
you, or that he keep up the wage and
let you look to the people for the
money with which to carry on your
work." Put that way, they thought
the wage better than the gift.
Labor does not take kindly to the
man who is spending money IN "up-
lift" work. 1t prefers to be given

There seem to be but three ways
by means Of which a man Of large

money to philanthropic purposes. He
can establish a foundation and leave
i the disposition Of his benevolences to
experts. He can personally listen to
and investigate every request made,
provided he has nothing else to do.

and hew to it. This Henry Ford has
done He decries charity. He makes
no attempt to conceal that fact. He

right to exist. Just what effect this
