SUGAR BEET
INDUSTRY TO
BE DEVELOPED
Association of Commerce To
Present Proposition to
Burleigh Farmers

Plans for developing the sugar beet
industry and promoting the growth
Of sugar beets in Burleigh county
were worked out at a meeting of the
board of directors Of the Association
Of Commerce last night.
A committee composed of o. E
Anderson, j. c. Taylor and J. P
Jackson was appointed to present tt
the farmers the proposition of plant
ing small tracts of sugar beets this
spring and to secure the needed in.
formation on the planting and cult
walton of sugar beets from state
agriculture authorities and sugar
beet factories
1t has been determined that sugar
beets can be grown successfully OF
all the lower-level land in Burleigk
county without irrigation or fertili
cation. The lands tributary to Bis
marck and Mandan, and lying direct
ly along the Northern Pacific Rail
road are especially adapted, both a.
to tonnage per acre production anG
a high sugar yield, according to au'
thorities.
One of the special benefits in su
gar production is that it rests the
s1il, clecns up all noxious weeds ana
when followed by a crop of wheat
rye or oats greatly increases thu
bushel production of these crops, b,
reason of the fact that it conserve!
moisture and increases soil fertility
agriculture experts declare.
The Association of Commerce com
mittee will furnish seed to the farm
ers this year. The farmers over tn,
county will be asked to plant small
tracks, about ten feet square, in or
der to determine the localities bes
adapted for growing sugar beets
Some Burleigh county farmers hav,
already notified the Association o.
Commerce that they will plant tes
plots this year and others intereste,
A. F. Bradley, secretary of the Asso
citation of Commerce.
Sugar beet consumption is increas
in production, figures show. In 1911,
tia 80 pounds; 1915, 81 pounds; 1920
81 pounds; 1925, los pounds. Tn
country is producing less than
consumes.
1t is estimated that an averag
acreage of sugar beets sown in thi
section and on land suitable woul'
average anywhere between $45 an
$50 per acre.
The board of directors at thei
meeting last night made preliminary
plans for a Prosperity Week cele
bration here this summer and tn
secretary was instructed to take vi
the proposition of getting a big cir
Gus to come here again this season.

The Colby Mule Kicks Garnet Up
Yale Picked to
Win Over Princeton
In Saturday Clash

New York, Nov. 11.-(By the
Associated ss)-Two Of the casts
Oldest rivalries will spring into fame
this week on the gridiron while 9TH
er major battles of the coming Sat-
urday feature intersectional or
championship interest. Both of
these ancient football feuds, how
ever, also involve title hopes. with
Princeton's rampant Tigers aiming
to break the Bulldogs grip on "big
three" laurels at New Haven while
Amherst seeks to snap the chain of
Williams triumphs in the conclud-
ing game of the little three" series
at Williamstown, Mass.
The Princeton-Yale dispute is the
older, in fact the oldest of all exist
ing gridiron rivalries. The Tiger and
the bulldog first clawed and snap
ped at each other back in 1873. In
forty-eight struggles since that time,
Yale has triumphed in 70, Prince
ton in Ii, while nine have ended IN
deadlockS
The Ellis, decisively victorious in
the past two years, are favored to
advance toward their third straight
big three" championship by taking
Princeton's measure although the
Tiger, spurred on by his smashing
triumph over Harvard last Saturday,
can be expected to put up a desper-
ate fight.
Amherst, beaten for four straight
years by Williams, seems about ripe
for revenge and a victory that will
carry with it the little three" title
Amherst swamped Wesleyan, $50
after which the latter conquered
Williams, 1912, but comparative
scores have not been a trustworthy
guide this season.
These ancient rivals have met for
ty-one times since 1884, with Will
liams carrying off twenty-three VIC
tories and Amherst fourteen, while
four games have been tied
Harvard and Brown renew anoth-
err of footballs fixtures, this time in
the new Providence stadium, with
the Bears out to make it four
straight over the battered Crimson
forces. Brown has yet to win one
of the major games in its all-home
schedule this season, having lost to
Pennsylvania, Yale and Dartmouth
Among the smaller colleges, the
Tufts-Bowdoin feud, begun in 1891
and the Hamilton-Union contest first
started in 1893, also figure in this
weeks program.
