|| BULLETIN, -HOLLAND-ST. LOUIS SUGAR CO. | TO | PROSPECTIVE BEET GROWERS DtLATUR PLANT

(By Truman G. Palmer.) | Washington, D. C., May 17—I be- ' lieve we are on the verge of an agricultural revolution In this country. It will be a bloodless revolution and one whpliy beneficial to the country at large—a revolution in farming methods. This will not be brought about by wonderful inventions of farming ! machinery or the discovery of new ati rlcultural ideas. It will simply result i from the application of a principle accidentally discovered in Europe a century ago. The principle has really revolutionized agriculture in Europe. It has doubled and trebled the yield per acre in the five staple crops of wheat, corn, oats, barhey and potatoes during the past sixty yea-s. 1 refer to scientific rotation in connection with the culture of the sugar beet. The culture of sugar beets in Eu- : rope was started by Napoleon, when, j after ten years of experimentation, his scientists discovered that by growing sugar beets on the land every fourth year, the yield of all other crops • grown during the three remaining i years was- increased from forty to one 1 hundred per cent. At that time, Eu- ' ropean fields were at their lowest | stage of productivity and economists were in despair because of their growing inability to feed the increasing population. At the same doe that Napoleon decided to prohibit the importation of sugar from the British colonies, he issued a decree appropriating a million francs (s2o<',ooo), wi.h which to teach beet culture and manufacturing methods to farmers and manufacturers and in two years’ time ‘ he had 331 factories in operation. After Napoleon’s downfall, the Ccs- i sacks stabled their horses in the ( French beet sugar factories and all , but two suspended operations. But | the farmers had learned how greatly 1 the culture of sugar beets increased ' their yields of other crops and as I soon as political conditions became | more settled, the industry revived in: France, and from there spread over all Europe. America has lagged behind Europe in learning this important agricultural lesson. But now- the farmers of the west and middle west are realizing its value. 1 have gathered reports from hundreds of these farmers showing their yields in the staple crops before and after rotation with the sugar beet. The figures are start- ' “I NOTICE TO PUBLIC. We, the undersigned merchants of the citv of Decaf:. agree to close otir respective grccety departments at - m., except Saturday nights.

ling They indicate that if the av- - erage American farmer followed the lead of his beet-raising brethren, the t production of our fields would be in- > creased over 100 per cent. Our crops t in the five staples would show an in- - creased value of $3,817,603,000 annualt ly. This stupendous sum may arouse ; t skepticism, but it is simply a deduc--1 tion from cold figures. 1 Here are the results of my inquiries, ■ averaged. They show the average " yield per acre in bushels and after the culture of beets: Before After P. C. In. ' Wheat 28.88 13.07 49.1 " Corn 41.6 53.1 27.6 Oats 40.9 60.6 4 I Barley 38.97 59.4 52. Potatoes 151 97 222.2 4'l. | ibe larmers who kept reports ena.I img them to furnish the required ini formation were all high-class men j Even before they cultivated bee", ; their yields showed a productivity far ’ above the average in the United ( ■' States. They were producing yearly , 50 per cent more wheat per acre than , | the average farmer, 60 per cent more corn, 25 per cent more oats, 60 per . I cent more barley and 50 per cent more potatoes. ■ The sugar teet, in itself, is a valuable cron, in addition to its aid to the t productivity of the farm generally. Many beet farmers report a great-i ..’otit per acre from beets than from jay other crop. The farmer sells bis beets to the beet sugar factory at a price fixed before he plants his see.!, thus making him independent of the i I speculator. The beet tops and the : pulp left over after the sugar has been < ; extracted from the beet, make excel- I ' lent fat mi ng fodder for the stock. So ; nothing is lost to the farmer. I believe w e are about to enter upon 1 an era of wonderful agricultural devel- ' opment with the sugar beet as a ba- * The old' city hall building, corner | ments realized the value of the sugar beet they forced its development by I heavy export bounties on beet sugar and heavy protective tariffs, against the import of the can product of the tropics. If our government cintinues to give the American farmers a tariff protection against sugar grown in foreign countries under the cheapest a bor in the world, the sugar beet industry will in a comparatively fewyears reach proportions comparable to those it has attained in Europe. _____ i AWAY WITH CATARRH; A FILTHY DISEASE ' A Common Sense Treatment Quickly 1 Relieves all Distressing Symptoms. i " i F you nave any symptoms of ca- , tarrh, stick as stuffed up feeling in the. head, profuse discharge from the nose, s phlegm in the throat, causing hawking and spitting, cull pain in the head, or ringing in the ears, just anoint the nostrils or rub the throat or chest with a little Ely’s Cream Bairn, and see how quickly yen will get relief. • In just a few minutes you will feel " your head clearing, and after using ’ the Balm lor a day or so the nasty dis- : charge will be cheeked, the pain, sore- ' ness and fever will be gone, and you ■ will no longer be offensive to yourself 1 I and friends by your constant hawking, * • spitting and blowing. * Shake off the grip of catarrh before it impairs your sense of taste, smell and hearing and poisons your whole system.
