Morgan Farmers
Do Well With
Sugar Beet Crop
REDWOOD COUNTY VILLAGE
SHIPS 1000 TONS IN LAST
FEW WEEKS; AVERAGE OVER
IL TONS TO ACRE.

From just "morsel" of land about
thirty farmers in the Morgan COM
munity have hauled in the largest
sugar beet crop that has been raised
here.
1t looks as though 700 acres of
sugar beets in this vicinity will aver
age close to IL tons per acre. The
state over, the yield is averaging nine
tons to the acre but the crop around
Morgan was considerably better than
the average. There were a couple
fields that run from poor to fair, and
one or two others that are nothing
to brag about but the general run is
very good.
The beets look like a good grade
but the sugar content will not be
known until there are reports from
the factory.
After load is hauled in and dump
ed the wagon and dirt are weighed
back to give the net, and then the
per cent of dockage is noted on the
ticket so that as the beets are mar
keted the farmer knows just how
many tons of beets he will be paid
for.
The revenue, above the Minnesota
Sugar Co.'S guarantee, will depend
upon the sugar tonnage which the
beets yield, and the wholesale price
of sugar from October LIST. to Febru-
airy 1st., which is averaged UP.
The sugar price seems to be hold
ing up well and most of the farmers
are anticipating that the crop will pay
out good.
The. factory at Chaska which en-
ploys $50 men is handling one thou
sand tons of beets daily and produc-
ing $500 bags of sugar, according to
an interview which H. A. Douglas,
president of the Minnesota Sugar Co.,
gave the press. According to that
ton of beets yields about $50 pounds
of sugar.
This year $4,000 acres were planted
to sugar beets in Minnesota, a gain
of 10000 acres over last year. How
ever, there are 100000 acres of
farm land in the state so the per cent
devoted to beets is very small. 1t
is nevertheless all that the factories
can handle for otherwise there would
be much larger acreage for sugar
beets are proving to be a most &C

raised in any other county in the
state which entered the Minnesota
wheat crop survey last August. For
ty-seven counties joined in this survey
which was made by the State Depart
ment of Agriculture. When it comes
to protein value of winter wheat Red
wood county again showed up well
being third on the list. Winter
wheat is, however, a minor crop in
this county:
These statements are based by The
Messenger ON the report of the State
Testing Mill on the survey mention
ed.
In order to determine the milling
quality of wheat raised in Minnesota
this year county agents last August
were instructed to gather and send
in numerous samples from repre-
sentative fields in their respective
counties, the samples of which were
ground and tested in the State Test
rNg Mill at Minneapolis. Practical
ly all, if not all counties, in which
spring wheat is major crop respond
ed to this competitive test, nearly
fifty counties being listed in the re-
port.
Eleven samples were sent from
Redwood county, thirteen from Brown,
and various numbers from other
counties.
The average per cent of protein in
the Redwood county samples was
1894 per cent which heads the entire
list. Brown county registered IL. per
cent. Wadena had the lowest the
per cent being 9.65 per cent while
the average for the entire state was
11.5 per cent. It should be noted that
Redwood county was in competition
with the Red River valley wheat dis
trict, also.

Among the quiet hills;

Surcease from city ills
But all it ever brought to me

On many a pleasant ride,

And filled it full of seeds;

Fresh food for family needs;
But all that ever grew in it

Redwood Raises Best
Wheat in Minnesota

Redwood county has again demon
strated her supremacy in competition
with the other counties of the state,
says the Morgan Messenger. Spring
wheat raised in Redwood county this
year contains a higher average per
cent of protein and therefore is better
for flour purposes than spring wheat

PROCLAMATION
Sunday, December seventh, 1924
has been designated as Golden Rule
Sunday, by representatives of twenty
nations who met recently at Geneva
to determine the best manner of al
leviating the distress of the tens OF
thousands Of sufferers in the Near
East who were victims of the late
World War.
President Coolidge has officially in
dorsed this movement and urged the
people of the United States to parti-
cipate, saying:
81 believe that the information
al observance of this day may
not only save lives Of thousands
of destitute, but may possibly
have an even greater benefit in
the way of reflex influence upon
those who thus observe the Golden
Rule and help to establish it as
a reality in daily living. The
international observance of this
day might well contribute mat
erially to the betterment of in
ternational relations and abid-
ing world peace"
The orphans and other sufferers in
the Near East, are, in sense, inter-
national wards, but our own country
is enjoying greater material prosp-
Gritty than any other nation, and
should be able to do more than its
pro rata share. l sincerely hope that
Golden Rule Sunday will be generally
observed throughout Minnesota and
that the people of this state, who are
always generous, will be especially
liberal in this most worthy cause.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have
hereunto set my hand and caused the
Great Seal of the State to be affixed
hereto this LIST day of November,

United States Army flyers, wing
ing their way westward above the
thousand mile arc of the Aleutian
Islands that stretch off like giants
stepping stones between Alaska and
Asia. are bacI-tracking in most
dramatic way one important historic
migration and perhaps other equally
important prehistoric movements. -
says bulletin from the headquarters
in this city of the National Geo
graphic Society.
IF the island dwellsrS of lT9 years
ago could see the airplanes whirring
along in the path of the sun" con-
tinues the bulletin, they would no
doubt be even more impressed than
they were by the bearded Russians
who came in crude boats from
kamchatka.
The Aleutians served as a path
for Russian adventurers who had
made their way across Siberia to the
Pacific and were in search of new
fur worlds to conquer. When sur
vivors returned to Kamchatka from
Behring'S voyage which discovered
Alaska. horde of them hastily
threw little boats together and

natives in a mad search for furs.
With these white men came the
diseases of civilization, and before
many decades the 10000 natives who,
in 1745. lived contentedly in the
more than a thousand miserable
creatures continually harassed by
their masters. When in the early
nineteenth century Russia established
a sort of colonial government in the
islands and on the Alaskan main
land, and introduced Christian mis-
sionaries, the natives Jared some
what better; but the Aleutian Is
lands have never recovered from the
early days of exploitation, and most
of them are now uninhabited.
1T was because they were opened
up from the east that the islands are
known as the Aleutians. The name
is derived from that of a kamchatkan
cape.
Climate Not. Severely Cold.
although the Aleutians are as far
north as central Canada their climate
is not severely cold. Rather they
may be said to be always chilly
damp and fogsy. Fog is anything
but an asset to the flyer, but the
least, of being less dense than the fog
of more southern lands.
THE islands are of volcanic origin
and for the most part very rough.
They are treeless. save for few
scrubby willows along water courses.
Dense growths of grass and moss
cover The hills and mountains and
the small patches OF lowland The is
lands can be rather closely compared
TO the islands off the coast of north

those regions. could produce hay and
support cattle. The few Aleuts who
live on some of the isles now, how
