Soldier Bonus Is
Sure to Pass.

The national legislative committee
of the American Legion says the soldi-
ers' bonus is sure to pass at the COM
ing session of congress. A careful
canvas made by the committee shows
that the house will put it across at
about eight to one and the senate will
pass it by a majority of eighteen.
The report of the committee to be pre-
scented at the annaul meeting at San
Francisco will read in part as follows
There has never been any question
about the overwhelming desire of the
house of representatives to repeatedly
pass our bill and a CAREFUL check
shows that as result of the elections
it will pass the lower house in the
coming congress by a vote of seven
or eight to one. The situation in the
senate is also greatly altered and our
bill will pass the senior body with at
least eighteen votes to spare"
An analysis of the senate man by
man, carried in the report, shows that

Sugar Beet Rails
ing near Olivia.

Several carloads of sugar beets have
been shipped from the Minnesota
Sugar Beet Company weighing sta
ton at Olivia since the sugar beet
raisers began marketing this years
crop. The shipment of the sugar
beets is made to the Company's re-
finery at Chaska, MINI. The estimate
of beets that will probably be shipped
from Olivia this year is placed at
forty-five carloads. This estimate is
based on the approximate amount that
was shipped from here last year The
yield per acre this season is estimated
to be lighter than last year but an in
crease in acreage planted will in all
probability bring up the total yield
to that of year ago.
Four or five farmers in the vicin-
ity of Olivia have been raising sugar
beets for market the past five years
and three years ago the amount mar
keted was sufficient to warrant the
company putting in a weighing sta
ton and elevator loading apparatus.
The total acreage in this vicinity this
year is two hundred forty three acres.
The farmers engaged in raising
sugar beets and their acreage are list
ed at the weighing station as follows
Otto Braun 10, Clarence Emerson Is,
Andrew Fox Is, John A. Frank So
Anton Kieffer 20, Earl Maxwell %
J. C. Maxwell 80, VIM. j. O'Neill %,
L. ]. Pulls 5, Tauber Bros. 10, C. F.
Wagonmaker 25, and w. D. Springer
5.
Many of those who have large acre
ages employ Russian or Mexican fami-
lies to take care of the sugar beets
and pay them a certain amount pei
acre for their work. This cost am.
cunts to about $22 per acre.
This years yield is from eight te
ten tons per acre and some yields are
reported even higher. The price many
of the sugar beet producers are ex
pecting this year is about $3.50 tt
$500 per ton. The contract the suga,
beet raisers have with the company
is such that the minimum price thai
they shall be paid any year is not less
than $3.50 per ton. Another arrange
ment is such that the sugar beet rails
ers get price in accordance with the
proceeds from the company's sales o.
sugar over period of four months
extending from Oct. LIST to Feb. LIST.

highest wheat prices on the Chicago
markets. Every month in the year
is honored sometime but May has been
the best guess; January topped the
market seven times, February seven;
March two, April eight; May 16, June
three, July four, September four,
October seven, November three, De-
cember 10.
It is hard to sell on raising mar
ket. To know just when to let go
would make anyone rich. Men have
been guessing at that since markets
began. Economists have figured that
the one who holds his crop every year
until the supposed high prices just
before the next harvest will not get
cost of carrying charges enough times
to make it pay. And the figures just
presented show how hard it is to guess
just when the top price will be. And
these top prices may be only cent
above price some months previous.
So if this is not speculation, what is?
Are these fluctuations in prices due
to manipulation of the market?
They are not. The supply is not con-
slant and cannot be made constant
or steady because demand is what
induces supply to flow to market.
And demand is not steady. Demand
depends upon the sale of flour, and ex-
port needs. Neither of these are any
where near steady. from day to day,
week to week or month to month.
When demand thus violently fiuctu-
ates. it is certain the prices will.
Any pooling arrangement will have
to meet exactly the same proposition.
Who, managing the pool, will know
just when the price has reached the
top? Any hopes of gains by such
tactics are doomed to failure. But
pool selling on daily demands, so that
all growers may share in the years
totals of sales, will probably net
more than any single sale at any
time. Speculation is legitimate CUES
sing on uncertain markets. Gambling
is another matter.
