The most common ailments OF

WHICH SHALL IT BE?

The hundreds of millions of dollars which the American beet sugar industry distributes among American farmers and laborers for beets grown and sugar pro- duced under American conditions in field and factory should be taken into serious consideration when considering protective tariff for this industry which will allow it to compete on an equal basis with sugar produced by Cuban growers with cheap foreign labor.
 The American beet sugar in- dustry saves this nation from being left entirely dependent on the foreign growers and specu- iators for our sugar supplies.
 It is impossible for this in- dustry to exist in competition with sugar produced on an is- land few miles from the United States with the cheapest kind of labor and shipped here in free competition with our domestic product.
 
 is a tariff sufficient to equalize this desDarity in cost of produc. tion and allow them an even break for the business with American consumers.
 One of two things must take place if our sugar tariff fails to give American farmers and su- gar manufacturers this protec- tion. Either the cost of labor in Amercan beet fields aud sugar factories must be reduced in proportion to the Cuban wage or the American beet sugar in- dustry will go out of existence.
 This fact was recognized in the passage of the emergency tariff act which increased the duty on sugar from s1 .OO to $1,Y 60 a hundred pounds and the ex- tension of this act as a perman- ent policy is essential if a do- nestle beet sugar industry con- tinues in this nation. The Man ufacturer.

ARIZONA MINERAL OUTPUT.
Arizona, fifth in area and for.

Arizona, fifth in area and for ty sixth in population, ranked twelfth in value of mineral pro. ducts for 1919. The net value of mine products was $S6, ,95O, ,O55. which was an increase of 164. 8 per cents over the correspond ing figures, $32 ,847, ,26O, in 1909. The amount given as value of products includes S752, ,152, which was received for mineral by pro ducts, for custom milling, power sold and miscellaneous services performed for other enterprises.
 Mineral by products were as follows. Manganese ore from a silver mine, silica from limestone quarry and rare metals (tung sten) from copper mine.
 Copper in 1919, with net value of products amounting to S82, ,689, ,OS5, represents 95.1 per cent of the net value of all min eral prod uctS in the state. Fur thermore, Arizona ranks first among the states in the produc ton of copper. The only other mineral industry of importance was gold and silver mining Oode mines) for which products valu ed at $3, 523, 447 were reported. The metalliferous mines are widely distribu throughout the state, but were most import ant in 1919 in twelve districts, in Cochise. Gila, Greenlee, Pima, Pinal and Yavapai counties.
 Of the total mum Der of mining enterprises in Arizona, 1O.3 per cent had DO wage earners and TAI per cent had fewer than 1O1 wage earners each, and these enterprises employed only 88 per cent of the total number of wage earners. On the other hand, enterprises employing more than 100 wage earners con stituted only 15.5 per cent of the total number of wage earners. The copper mining industry in cluded S7.5 per cent of these large enterprises.
 The eight hour day prevails generally, and the normal hours of labor per week are 56 in a majority of the mines and 48 in most of the remainder.

TB QUICKLY HANDICAPPED.

That testing cattle for tuber- culosis and the cleaning up of infected herds are having a per. manent effect in reducing the extent of the disease is shown conclusively by figures recently collected by the United States Department of Agriculture from inspectors in charge of the erad. ication work in various parts of the country The inspectors were asked to supply figures on the results of three or more tests on badly diseased herds, those that had not less than 10 per cent of reactorS on the first test. The first test on more than 58, GOO cattle in these bad herds showed that 26 per cent had tu- berculosis. Another test six months later on the same herds, from which the reactors had been removed, showed only 6.9 per cent of the disease. By an. other six months the percen tage had gone down to ? 8. A fourth test on more than 25, ,OOO of these cattle showed only 1.8 per cent of tuberculosis.
 The reports from which these figures were taken show that under normal conditions herds very badly diseased may be es- tablished as relatively free in a short. time. They also show that eradication work can be carried on without destroying the cattle industry as is some times thought. Erratic results were obtained on a very few of the 1882 herds tested, the list of this class containing less than 100. Out of the 126, 668 herds under observation December l |, 1921, there were only very few that had not shown satisfactory improvement as result of test ing.

DOUGLAS SHELTER STARTS.

Bisbee, Feb. 1.-Douglas resi- dents awakened this morning and, for the first time since last April, saw smoke pouring from the big stacks of the C. & A. smelter Two big reverberatory furnaces at the plant were fired up at II o'clock last night and today force of approximately 32O men, of whom 25O have been taken on during the last few days, will be at work at the re- duction plant.
 Ia the mine here, the c. & A. has taken on quite a few former employees since the announce ment of Colonel John c. Green way, general manager, that pro- duction of copper would be re- sumed today. Former memb bers of the c. & A. forces, and par ticularly ex service men, are be- ing taken on first. The increase in force by both the c. & A. and Copper Queen will probably be gradual. as ore bins at both the big smelters at Douglas are al ready we'll filled and additional output by the mines will not be needed for several weeks, at least.

Phoenix, Feb. 6.-GoverDor Francesca S. Elias of the border state of Sonora is determined to put a stop to depredatious along the international boundary, he informed Governor Campbell of Arizona in letter received Sat urday.

 wish to assure you that | will co operate to the fullest ex- tent of my authority to the end that such depredations be stop ped; for that purpose my gov ernment has created guerilla" of eight to ten men each to oper- of Sonora. The guerillas are under the orders of Lieutenant Colonel Manuel Aguirre, whose residence is at Cananea, and who has been instructed by me to notify the Sheriffs of counties bordering this sta te of any rob- berries that come to his knowl- edge and, to void any delay Tn handling these matters, he is authorized to, without further orders: arrange with the Sheriffs the return of any property be longing to the United States.
