BLAME BROADCASTING FOR BAD WEATHER IN ENGLAND LAST YEAR Matlock, Eng. (INS) —In the belief that tadio broadcasting is responsible for the prevalence of bad weather in England at the present time. British spas propose to petition the Government to forbid broadcasting for one month to test the effect of radio on the weather. There is an increasing canviction that the bad weather experienced throughout Britain during 1927 and up until the present time has been due to radio broadcasting. It is pointed out that the eally mornings are usually fine, but that once the general radio progtam begin the weather breaks, and usually becomes worse as the day progresses and more programs are broadcast.

MAKES $65 PER ACRE CN BEETS Farmer Near Monon Tells About Experience In Growing Sugar Beets The following aitlclo regarding the growing of sugar beets, was wilt ten by Charles Kelly, of the Internatiomil Live Stock Association, Chicago Stock Yards, Chicago, and published recent ly in the Monon, Indiana newspaper '■('omplying will, your reqiicst to give you a detailed statement of our "experience and operation with sugar beets the past season will state that about u year ago we m-de a deal with the Holland St. Ixniis Sugar Company of Decatur, Indiana, to plant ten acres in sugar beets as at. experiment. They furnished us the seed free and contracted to pay us |6.75 per ten aboard cars Monon for all the beets we raised. They then entered into an agreement to furnish us Mexican lalm.r to weed, block and hde the beets, also top and put the beets in piles when harvested. For this service we paid then. |23.00 per acre. The Mexicans blocked and weeded the beets and later on hoed them one". By actual measurement we had in 10 4-10 acres. "We harvested the beets and shipped them the second week in October and theie were 145 tons and 16SH pounds net weight, or a very slight fraction undet 14 tons per acre. We received gross $94.28 per acre for the beets. Deduct from that amount $23.00 paid for the Mexican labor, also , $5.50 per acre worth of commercial fertilizer used, leaves a net of 65.78 per acre. Here is what we did for that $65.78 pe racre: “Prepared the land, distributed the fertilizer anil planted the beets. We I (dewed them seven times dining the season.

something on the order of ti potato digger, on<> row being lifted at u time. The Mexicans topped the beets, putting them In idles in u king row. (22 rows in one) Then our men forked them Into wagons, hauled them into town and loaded them aboard cars. We usoii n corn iluinp for loading aboard ears and Is worked fairly satisfactorily. ‘ When H comes to harvesting beets witli dry seiisonnble weather inot counting the Mexican labor) the work <iir men did was not <|ulto as much ss it would have been to husk and deliver aboard railroad cars corn of sufflcluet value to make It equal to hei-ts. However with bad warm rainy weather, which would make the field vety soft and muddy, it is oijr opinion Hint Hie work would be more that a like amount of corn. We think that iho rich, black, sandy loam land in out section is exceptionally well adapted for "root crops" The tonnage wo laised last year bears out that fat-t and wo are making our arrangements to put one hundred acres in sugftr boots this spring. Raising sugar beets in not a boy's job and if a man is not going to egrtectly prepare his land and properly cultivate them he hud better not start However, the amount of income a farmer gets per acre from sugar beejs in our opinion will warrant selecting his best land, properly fertilizing It and then cultivating same throughly. "We think very highly of the Holland St. Louis Sugar Company. They certainly treated us square in every way. "Trusting that the information given you above is what you desire, but if we have not covered all points, let us know and we will take another try at it.” o Get the Habit—Trade at Home, It Pays
