Save The Beet Crop Adams-county has produced this year from the standpoint of torrnngt what promises to be oile of the best beet crops in its history. Due to the unusual weather conditions encountered so far, the crop is only about half harvested. The season is growing late and it is for this reason WE APPEAL TO ALL FOR HELP AT TH IS TIME. A 1 ittle co-operation on the part of all will save this big crop. We particularly appeal to those who have already succeeded in harvesting their crop to lend a day or two to your neighbor who is not so fortunate. Any one who lives near a man who has beets will show a real neighborly by offering to help. We recommend particularly that the beets be lifted and piled in the field so that the laborers can top them should the weather freeze. Tn places where the fields are TOO WET to use a lifter, we suggest that you use topping knives equipped with a hook that the beets may be pulled out of the ground. One grower with a vvet field has already piled half his crop in this manner to our knowledge. lopping knives can be supplied on short notice. Laborers are arriving daily to assist in saving the crop. Wherever we can assist, feel at liberty to call upon us. The Holland St Louis Sugar Co E. J. Fricke, field superintendent
