love each other to the last breath Of
suffering and beyond 1t. You may die

spoke Of companionship.

band, Nadia, you must have leisure,
Leisure means money. You must have
properly trained servants, a secretary
or two. You must not have to worry
about your clothes, about the expenses
of entertaining and travelling. about the
impression you make on people who
matter. You must put your whole
soul into this companionship II 1t is

SQUABBiE OVER

COMPLICATIONS Arise That Would

Poplar Bluff; Mott will take
modern Solomon TO untangle the COM
plications that have arisen over the
shipment of a corpse from this city 10
Nashville, Tenn, and then back TO
Poplar Bluff. A judge of the Circuit
court already has ruled that a jury
that tried the issues here, as TO who
shosld pay the transportation charges
on the corpse for the round trip made
a faux pas. and has ruled that
new trial Is In order and has so de-
creed.
The body In question was that or
man murdered here some time ago
and believed to have been Theodore
Murray. who had been missing for
months from his home In Nashville,
Tenn. Mrs. Mary Murray, the mother,
heard of the finding of the body and
wrote to the Frank Undertaking com
pany, asking that II furnish her with
a description of the body. This was
done and the description was such as

his hatred on his wife. Finally, she
said she could stand his beatings no
longer, so she went to the home Of
her parents. planning to return later
for the children, and then to begin
proceedings for a divorce.
Huguet heard Of her plans and went
to see her, begging her to return TO
him. Upon her refusal, he threatened
TO do something which would cause
her death within q few weeks. He re-
turned TO his home and, at midnight,
drowned the four children, taking the
seven-month-old boy first, then the
two-year-old son, then the five-year-
old boy, and finally, Marie, seven,
his only daughter.
The two older children sensed the
tragedy and begged for their lives,
but their father was Obdurate and,
after beating them with a club, he
threw their bodies into the pond. II
Is improbable that he will mount the
guillotine, as it Is believed he is in
sane and that a jury will send him
to an asylum for the rest Of his life.

I'm DENVER WITH GROWERS

ment That 1922 Beet Contract Is Very
Favorable To Growers; Initial D..

DENVER, COLO, Feb. 16-A slid
ing scale contract paying IS per ton

with growers representatives.
Additional payments would be made
if the sugar content or net price is
higher. Small reductions would fol-
low lower price or sugar content, but
in no case would the grower receive
less than $3.50 per ton, the initial pay
ment on delivery of all beets from

dividual growers beets, will be used
as basis because of the prohibitive
expense of testing each growers de-
liveries.
The sliding scale gives the farmers
the benefit of good sugar content and
higher prices. The initial payment Of
$3.50 relieves the grower from the
largest portion of risk in case Of un-
favorably low sugar content and low
sugar prices.
Contract hand labor for beets in the
coming season is expected to be OBJ
tained for $18'or less, per acre, COM
pared with $22 last year.
The portion of the high freight rate
from distant territories, like Belle
Fourche, McCook, Oshkosh, Wheat
land, Kimball and Lewellen, which the
growers in these outlying district have
always paid, was not announced for
the coming season. It is expected
that such growers will share in the
benefits of any reduction in freight
rates announced by the railroads prior
to the delivery of the next beet crop.
The following sections are taken
from the proposed sliding scale:

intermediate steps are in proportion.)

In presenting the contract w. D.
Lippit, general manager of the COM
pany, said:
eve believe this is very favorable
contract for the growers. The slid
ing scale is now generally recognized
as fair method of fixing beet pric-
es. The growers participate in the
benefits of high prices and good sugar
content.
"After earnest consideration given
to existing conditions in agriculture
the company has decided upon an in
itial payment of $3.50 to protect the
growers from the effects of any un-
expected decline Of prices and sugar
content below the pre-war averages.
"The proposed contract will pay
growers $500 per ton when the aver
age net price the company obtains
for sugar is $3.50 per bag and the
average content of all beets sliced in
the district is 1914 per cent. Both
this price and content were exceeded,
on the average, in pre-war years.
eve have every reasonable ground
for the belief that the future holds
promise Of recovery for the sugar
industry. But no prophecy Of future
sugar prices is needed because the
sliding scale automatically admits the
grower into his share of high sugar
prices, and the initial payment of
$3.50 leaves the grower unaffected by
declines which would prove very de-
trimental to the company.
