and increased yields can come only
from costly effort. This we need not
expect from an impoverished or I'M
happy rural population.
II will not do to take a narrow view
of the rural discomfort, or TO appraise
II from tho standpoint of yesterday.
This is peculiarly an age Of 1ux and
change and new deals. Because a
thing always has been so no longer
means that It is righteous, or always
shall be so. More, perhaps, than ever
before, there Is widespread feeling
that all human relations can be i'm.
proved by taking thought, and that It
is not becoming for the reasoning ami.
mai to leave his destiny largely to
chance and natural incidence.
Prudent and orderly adjustment of
production and distribution in accord.
ance with consumption Is recognized
as wise management In every business
but that of farming. Yet venture
to say, there Is no other industry In
which It is so important to the pub
nc-to the city-dweller--that produc-
ton should be sure, steady, and in
creasing, and that distribution should
be In proportion to the need. The un.
organized farmers naturally act blind
~ and impulsively and, In conse-
uuence, surfelt and dearth, accompa.
MED by dlsconcerting price-variations,
harass the consumer. One year pota-
toes rot in the fields because of excess
production, and there Is scarcity of
the things that have been displaced
to make way for the expansion of the
potato acreage: next year the punish
ed farmers mass their fields on some
other crop, and potatoes enter the
class OF luxurles; and so on.
Agriculture is the greatest and fun.
damentally the most important of our
American industries. The cities are
but the branches of the tree of ma.
tional life, the roots of which go deep
ly into the land We all flourish or
decline with the farmer. SO, when we
of the cities read of the present uni
yersal distress of the farmers, of a
slump of six billion dollars In the farm
value of their crops In a single year,
of their inability to meet mortgages or
to pay current bills, and how, seeking
relief from their ills, they are plan
ming to form pools, inaugurate farm
ers' strikes, and demand legislation
abolishing grain exchanges, private
cattle markets, and the like, we ought
net hastily to brand them as economic
heretics and highwaymen, and hurl at
them the charge of being seekers of
special privilege. Rather we should
ask If their trouble is not ours, and
see what can be done to improve the
situation. Purely from self-.nterest,
IL for no higher motive, we should
help them. All Of us want to get back
permanently to "normalcy;' but is 1t
reasonable to hope for that condition
unless our greatest and most basic in
dustry can be put on Il sound and solid
permanent foundation? The farmers
are not entitled to special privileges;
but are they not right in demanding
that they be placed on an equal foot
ing with the buyers Of their products
and with other industries?

The reasons for
such unusual values

All the buyers had this sale
IN mind when they went TO
market. Manufacturers, job
bers and wholesalers with
whom the Lutz store did busi-
ness for several years were
asked 10 cooperate with us.
We asked them for this one
sale 10 sell MS goods at cost or
below. They have responded
wonderfully and we doubt If
in al our history we have held
sale in which SO much staple
and desirable merchandise has
been offered below the market
price. The Sale begins Thurs
day morning the 10th and con
tinucs until Saturday evening
of the iweniy-fifih.
We appreciate the present
condition. We know people
must get the most possible for
their money. We also appre.
ciaie the remarkable patron
age extended 10 this store and
for these two reasons we are
going 10 make this a memor.
able sale The values will not
be equallcd again for many
,monthS.

The latest estimates for the 1929
beet sugar crop in the United States
give the output as only 900 long
IONS, the lowest figure since 1911.
This is principally due to decreased
acreage.
This result was brought about by
the drop in the price of sugar coupled
with the fear that protective tariff
would not be passed sufficient to per-
nit the American beet sugar industry
to exist in competition with foreign
supplies produced with the cheapest
kind of labor
Reasonable tariff protection was as
sured by the last Congress and while
its effect will have practically no bear
ing on increased sugar prices, it will
insure the American beet sugar indus
try against complete decentralization if
The price Of sugar drops to a figure
which, without tariff protection, would
allow foreign supplies to be dumped
On our market at a price completely
below beet sugars cost of production
here.
Farmers who have experimental
this year with other crops at normal
prices have been impressed with the
value of the sugar beet crop which
can b. contracted in advance at fig
ure profitable to the grower, which
assures him a definite return and a
recognized credit at his bank.
Next year will see more sugar beets
planted and increased disbursements of
money among western farmers for this
crop which will run into millions of
dollars.

Era of Cheap Land Forever Gone in
United States.

Washington, Dec. ls.-The frontiers
in America have vanished The era
of che-p lands will never return. From
now on the price OF land viii be in
creased because of the natural search
y of t.llable arcas nd the increas-
ing cost of cultivating land which is
tillable.
Accor .iing TO the United StHtes De-
rartment Of Agriculture, there are
20 100000 acres of absolute desert;
10000 900 acres of forest land end
100000 a-rcs of land which is
semi-arii and suitable only for graz
ng.
Those who wish new lands can find
plenty of it in cut-over sections at
prices ranging from SO to $50 per
acre. But it would cost all the way
from s35 to 5000 per acre to clear tho
land and place it ready for cultivation.
There are 81 100000 acres of undrain-
cd land that can be purchased cheap
ly, but the cost of drainage is almost
prohib;tive.

Death of Pioneer Woman.

Prowers county old time friends will
be much grievcd to learn of the death
at Alameda, California, on December
Z, of Mrs. Mary ]. Jones, widow Of
the late w. w. Jones of Granada. Mrs.
Jones was one of the real pioneer
women of this valley, her husband
having been western scout and pio-
neer in the days before the civil war,
and they together homesteaded land
and created large ranch on Granada
creek in the early 70s, when the In
dams were still making occasional
raids through this section and the peo-
pie had to take to the tall weeds every
once and awhile. After the town of
Granada was firmly established they
moved there and were for years among
its leading citizens. After Mr.. Jones'
death Mrs. Jones divided her time be
tween the home of brother in Kans-
as, her own home in Granada and that
of sister in California and it was
while visiting with the latter that she
died. A woman of many fine quHli-
tics, who had endured all the greatest
trials of the pathfinders of the west
she had large circle of friends
among the old settlers of all sections
of the valley.
