Beetgrowers Need Better Price

resolution adopted at the annual meeting of
the association in November s'that the sec
rotary of agriculture be requested to adjust
the consumptive estimate Of sugar required
to supply consumers in the continental
United States and take such other steps as
are necessary with the purpose of causing
such a rise in the price Of sugar as will
result in maintaining the domestic sugar
industry in accordance with the provisions
of the sugar act"
Without the domestic sugar industry the
United States would be dependent entirely
upon off-shore producing territories for its
supply of this essential food product Such
dependence would place this country in a
dangerous position in time of war emer-
gency Sugar beets are also of direct i'm
portance to successful farming program
on irrigated land. They provide an essential
cash crop that fits into the production rota-
ton. Their byproducts are highly important
to the livestock feeding industry of the west
1t is no exaggeration to say that western
sugarbeet acreage will certainly continue its
rapid decline unless the secretary of agri-
culture takes positive action along the line
requested by the growers association. #
the secretary is in doubt as to the urgency
of the situation let him take look at the
acreage statistics Of recent years.

comprising IA acres. Results have varied
with different conditions and different rates
of application. Maleic hydraulic sprayed on
IL one-acre plots at the rate Of 2 pounds per
acre early in May slowed the rate of growth
to point where only two mowings were
needed for the entire season. Adjacent UNI
treated sections had to be moved 10 times
to keep them in comparable condition.
Factors which will have to be evaluated
before the practical value Of the new lawn
treatment can be fully determined are the
effect of dosage on winter survival of vari-
GUS grasses, effect Of retreatment in sue
cessive seasons, optimum dosages, and the
time Of year for best effect on various
species of grasses.
In the meantime, scientists believe the
future looks decidedly brighter for hard
working lawn-mower pushers, whether in
town or country, thanks to the new chemical

It Makes Lawn Grass Stop Growing

1T HAS long been the dream of city dwell
= lers with lawns to NOW in the summer
time that someone would develop the kind
Of grass that would get lush and green in
the spring, grow to height of an inch or
two and then stop without the need Of
frequent cutting. Numerous farm people
who have lawns have also yearned for that
kind Of grass. And many more rural families
would develop plots around their homes if
it were not for the chore of keeping them
clipped.
While seed houses have not been very
successful in perfecting grass that requires
no cutting, an eastern chemist has discov-
cred that new chemical known as maleic
hydraulic will slow the rate of growth so
that only one or two clippings season will
keep the lawn in good shape. At least that's
what his preliminary tests indicate.
Experiments have been conducted dur
ing the past two years on So different plots

Editorials

"A NUMBER of factors contribute to the
- declining sugarbeet acreage through
out the domestic beet producing territory
But the most important one is the fact that
prices paid for sugarbeets have not kept
pace with prices paid for other products the
beetgrowers can raise In the opinion Of
leaders in the beetsugar industry both pro-
ducers and professors, the price of sugar
beets is at least So a ton less than needed
to maintain the industry in competition
with other crops.
There is provision for raising prices in
the present sugar act which was enacted in
1948 and recently extended by congress for
four-year period ending Dec 81, 1856. The
provision requires the establishment of the
consumptive quota for sugar by the secre-
tary of agriculture in order Ito provide a
supply of sugar which will be consumed at
prices fair to the consumer and which will
fairly and equitably maintain and protect
the welfare of the domestic sugar industry"
AS the Western Beetgrowers association
points out the consumptive quota for 1851
was set at a point considerably in excess
of the market requirements with the result
that prices paid for sugarbeets were so UNI
attractive as to drive many beet growers
into other lines of production.
There seems ample justification for the

Before You Sign an Oil Lease

But the important thing to do is to con-
suit a competent attorney who understands
oil leases and who can explain just what the
different provisions mean. It takes only one
tricky clause to leave you holding the sack.
In other oil territories landowners have
lost far more by signing too soon than by
taking time to get competent advice. AS is
the case with any other contract, there isn't
much you can do once you have signed your
John Henry on the dotted line.
The old adage still holds good-before
you invest or sign an oil lease, investigate.
Montana farmer-stockman., 1951-12-15

nIL FEVER is at . high pitch in many
~ areas of eastern Montana as a result
of recent discoveries. Lease hounds are
scurrying everywhere. Landowners are in
danger of signing over valuable oil rights
for song if they don't know what they are
doing and with whom they are dealing
Don't let anyone stampede you into sign
ing lease. After all there's no hurry. Your
lease will be worth just as much and per-
haps more a month from now, or two
months from now, or even year from now.
If new discoveries are made closer to your
place you may benefit substantially by
waiting.

Support Of farm programs by labor or
CARNATIONS is weakening fast. The execu-
tive council of the American Federation of
Labor issued statement recently announc-
ing that the AFL could no longer aid farm
organizations in backing farm legislation be-
cause farm groups have too frequently sup
ported "anti-labor legislation" The farm or
CARNATIONS directly attacked in the state
ment are the American Farm Bureau Fed
Grafton and the National Grange. AFBF re-
piled that it "devotes its energies to the
solution of the fundamental problems fac
ing America and all Americans"
Those who are indifferent about price
support program now may change their
minds if surplus problems return. A fire ex-
tinguisher isn't necessary either until the
blaze starts. Experience of the 192Os and
'S0s demonstrated the need for dependable
standby support plan that can be put into
operation quickly when the need arises.
With both labor and industry in position
to maintain the prices of their services, ag-
ricultural producers would be in a critical
position if serious price trouble found them
with their supports down. And the whole
economy would soon suffer.
The wealth Of democracy lies in its
people, not in its government or its goods.
The product of democracy is Self-acting
men and women The well-being in progress
of society requires that every citizen, of
whatever age, may have the opportunity to
discover himself and to make use of himself
largely in his own way Any theory Of the
state as the end of society or as a motive
of government leads away from democracy
as darkness leads away from the light. -

Turkeys were strictly holiday" birds
until comparatively few years ago. About
80 percent of the annual crop was con-
sumed at Thanksgiving and Christmas. But
today only IS percent is sold for holiday
consumption. The remainder goes into con
sumner channels in fairly orderly fashion
during the rest of the year. Per capita con
sumption of the birds has been increasing
steadily. Sale of turkeys in sections and de
velopment of smaller bodied birds have
helped to increase year-around demand.
If you don't provide for transferring your
farm or ranch within the family before you
die your heirs will almost surely suffer
from your neglect afterward. Life is I'M
certain. 1t may be later than you think.
Farm and ranch labor supply will &c
still tighter during the coming year. The
draft will take more and more farm, as wei
as city, boys.
Willingness without action is like
cloud without rain-there may be lots 0
thunder and lightning, but no parchet
ground is watered. 20. B. Blackledge.

After the war he decided to
stay in the Navy because he was
given shore duty. This happened
only a year ago and we settled
down. He works long hours, comes
home late and tired. We just sit
around-once in a while go to the

He took little part in home life,
but this did not keep him from
wanting to dictate everything that
was done. Hes like his father
in that respect" she commented.
He would buy things for the
kitchen without consulting her.
The climax came when II took
our little girl TO visit my parents.
When I came back I found our
bedroom completely redecorated
with modernistic furnishings that
I particularly hate. He traded in
the old furniture-for $22-and
with 1t went the old walnut
dresser that belonged to my great
grandmother; the only link with
the past that I have. 1t almost
killed me, Mr.. Popenoe.
I'VE went to the store to see IL
we could get it back. but they had
already sold it to an antique
dealer who asked such an OUT
rageous price for it that my hus-
band refused to buy it back. And
that's the way things go in my

see why the wife had become cold.

It's hard for a husband to know
his place and keep it! Some take

some, like 1t. T., take too much.

HOUSEHOLD BUDGETING.

From A. g., Alexandria,
AS a wife and housekeeper I

by the husband and wife. Whether
this is a popular practice by the
people who sincerely strive to get
along. regardless Of the incomes
say that are not so fortunately
large that there is no budgeting
needed.
Our income is not of the pro-
fessional bracket. 1t is, of course.
not in proportion to present day
living conditions. Which seems
to me to point out the need for
Ia complete understanding between
two people who must live under to-
days conditions. AS a wife who
lis interested 100 per cent in thrift
Iiness I find it very disconcerting
that there is no budget and no
desire on the part of my husband
as to the spending of money pro-
|portionately to the income. That
is, a specified amount set aside for
the dire needs. After many years
the thought Of my husband has
always been the same "easy way
out" or what does it matter, it
goes anyway" I ask a simple
question: What would the average
woman Of average intelligence
think about that? To my way Of
thought it is not a good sound
basis for maintaining a home and
definitely not sound thinking
How do wives interested in saving
feel about this? The old saying
may be true: Those who do not
save a little from little save
nothing from much" In other
words, I have wished for years
to sit down and figure things out
together but have seemingly lived
in the dark. It is assumed that
little is saved now but I still be-
lieve that a so-called budget
is a necessity.
