Admit your mistakes whet) you learn you are wrong. If-you can keep your (iep up this summer you ought to be in fine fettle when the cool breezes arrive in ;i few weeks. Then we sure ouglit to go on high. A .New Orleans girl has been selected as the most beautiful girl • of the universe. We suppose she will now have to go to Mars or some other planet to finish the race. It is reported that some twentyfive thousand people took part either actively or as witnesses in the Marion lynching which will probably make it a rather difficult matter to convict any of them. The great engineer should now appoint a commission to ascertain what portion of th? 122,728,873 people in the United States do not violate either the traffic or the prohibition laws. Data is about all they feed us these days any way. We seem to have reached the bottom. Any way the stock market is holding fast these hot August days when they usually slip. One of these days the folks will awaken to the fact that this is as- — ter all a great country with bil- _ lions of unmined resources and 122,000,000 to feed and then we will have another era of spending that will make every one feel prosperous whether they are or not. Thrift makes prosperity and it also makes power, wisdom, prudence, courage, faith, energy, freedom and opportunity. It strengthens and directs your mind, adds to your self respect, teaches you values, establishes your credit, keeps your money working for you so you may be independent in your older days, its the finest thing you can do for yourself and those you love even though you must at - timgs deny them some things they want.

A < TODAY’S CHUCKLE • (UiR ) « Vienna. —At the age of 70 Hugo Richter, a former colonel in the Imperial army of prewar Austro-Hungary, has taken ! orders as a Catholic priest. ♦ ♦ Beet Growers Association should prove a help to those engaged in that work for there are many things which would tend to their benefit the securing of perfect seed for the soil where it is to be used, the education of the public as to the fact that beet sugar is the equal lo any on the market, the establishment of a bureau in Washington and the general aid of those so engaged. It will mean also that many other farmers will become interested in the industry, once it .- given its right place. Mr. Fuelling who attended the meeting at Greeley, Colorado, is enthusiastic about tlu> work to be done and the good to be derived. Mob law is never the best thing tor a community and those who engaged in the lynching at Marion Thursday night will long regret any participation. When such things as provoked this affair occur people lose their heads and if such a crowd is led by mon who can keep their feet on the ground it is not unusual for lynchings to occur, but after all one crime does not warrant another and it is unlawful to take the law into hands other than those provided by the constitution. However the frequency of such crimes as those

charged against the three negroes —the murder of a young man and an attack upon his sweetheart—have become so numerous and th* punishment in many instances so long delayed and then comparatively light, that it is not to be wondered at that the Marion citizens did not hesitate to mete out justice as they saw it. Unless the crime wave is checked and there is more respect for law enforcement, we may expect further affairs like that which has just occurred, regrettable as this form of protection of society may be. President Hoover has appointed another commission. This one will be made up of business men, labor leaders and economists, who are to co-operate with the government departments in devising a method for the compilation of more adequate data on unemployment. This is a desirable step, but it should have been taken many months ago. Mr. Hoover has long been in close contact with the employment problem in this country. In 1921 he served as chairman of President Harding’s committee on unemployment. It was no surprise to him, therefore, when the industrial depression of last winter revealed the inadequacy of the employment statistics compiled by the department of labor. Yet he did not lift a finger to correct this situation. Instead he joined with Secretaries Davis and Lamont last February and March in belittling the unemployment problem and in trying to restore prosperity by proclamation. Meantime there were measures before congress—the Wagner bills—which provided for the compilation of more accurate information regarding employment, the long-range planning of public works and a na-tion-wide system of employment offices. In none of these measures did the administration show the slightest interest. Only one of them was enacted. Congress passed the bill enlarging the scope of employment statistics and the president has now named a committee to advise with the government as to the best methods to be employed for obtaining this additional information. Less than he could hardly do. More than that the country has had a right to expect.—New York World. o Estimate Less Wheat St. Paul, Minn., —(UP)—Wheat production in the Northwest was estimated as 20,000,000 bushels below the 1929 crop in the report of the Farmers Union Terminal Association.

Ind., August 9 —(UP) A new state income tax law, providing $19,000,000 annually, which would avoid necessity of a constitutional convention, is the aim of H. H. Evans, Henty County representative, who has drawn up a bill that he believes constitutional and sound. Evans' bill is patterned after the income tax statute of Georgia. - t — - - - -' • -—f >— ——— The Wrong Theory Portland, Ind., -—(UP)— A hen that lays double eggs is owned by C. V.

Instead, A two headed rooster was hatched which eats twice as much feed and lays no eggs.

EEET GROWERS ORGANIZE TO FURTHER TRADE (CONTINUED FROM PACE ONE) from now until January by which time it is expected the association will have sufficient funds to carry on the work. The plan agreed upon for securing finances was to levy a charge of one cent per ton on beets grown by tl»e members. All growers will be Invited to join the state organization and thus participate in the benefits to lie derived from tlie national association. Mr. Fuelling stated that the western beet growers certainly extended the hand of hospitality to the eastern delegates and left nothing undone to make the occasion a pleasant as Well as an instructive one. It was quite fitting that the National Beet Conference for the organization of a National Beet Growers Association should have been called to meet at Greeley, Colorado. It was reported to us that on a slight eminence a few miles west of the town, one could see on a clear day the smoke stacks of five large sugar factories, some of them slicing 2.500 tons every 24 hours and having an average slicing campaign of about 110 days each year. The altitude of Greeley, 4.500 feet, assures the beet field the cool nights and warm days, so necessary to develop sugar content as well as tonnage. Some 25 miles west from Greeley lie tlie foothills of the Rocky Mountains. The roads wind along the river canyons in your ascent to the higher mountain ranges. On tlie highest ranges, such as Long's Peak, over 14,000 feet, the snow lies tlie year round and can be seen even from the lieet fields on the plains 50 miles away. The higher altitudes, up to the timerline, are covered with timber, principally pine, cedar and spruce. The snow here falls sometimes to a depth of 15 inches in winter. It packs under its own .pressure, and shielded . by the timlw-r. remains to thaw during tlie hottest' mouths of the summer. Thousands of sheep and cattle, ate fed in this territory/, principally from the beet pulp, molasses and alfalfa.. Dairying has been ga'ning ground very rapidly and there are a number of milk condeiisaries scattered over the district. The farmers thought this virgin land producing often 20 tons of beets. 50 bushels of wheat or 300 or 400 bushels of potatoes would never wear out, but it is being exhausted eVen though feeding is car-

pled on extensively and many farmers are beginning to use fertilizer for-their beets. I believe I found something unusual, and tliat is that Weld county, in which Greeley is located, never had one dollar of bonded indebtedness. The fine fire proof up-to-date court house, in which the Beet Association held its session, costing, when construction was at the lowest figure, about a half million dollars, was paid for by an extra levy in two or three years. It was really wonderful to see beet fields irrigated by one good stream of water passing between the rows and probably covering eight or ten acres a day. This irigation district lias canneries for tomatoes, sugar peas, beans, corn and pumpkin. There are very large cherry orchards as you approach the foothills. But the success of the crop depends upon the winter snow falling upon the mountain ranges. As you continue to go up the mountain until you attain some 11,000 feet, you reach the continental divide, which means that tlie waters on one side go to the Mississippi and the Gulf while a few feet away, the water will finally reah the Pacific ocean through the tributaries of the Colorado. You are

indeed on top of tlie world and i probably only 80 miles from the beet fields at Greeley. The beet fanners in this terri-1 tory, extending probably 200 miles fpom Denver to Julesburg in the | northeastern part of tlie state, have a successful beet association, not i only negotiating contracts for the price of beets with the sugar com-: pany, but participating in matters j of tariff legislation, freight rates 1 and even undertaking to sell their sugar near the point of production. The membership was about 4,000,1 but the association had recently put on and is putting on a campaign for membership in which 1180 contracts had just been secured, and that in about 50 days. The I association thinks that they have i one member who is the argest beet grower, belonging to any association in the United States. He raises annually about 1450 acres of beets. • o rind Mastodon Jaw Hastings, Neb., — (UP) — The large jaw of a mastodon with teetir still in place is the latest “find" to be placed in the Hastings museum. It was discovered by Curator A. M. Brookings, who spent several days on a research expedition near Franklin, Neb. A hundred boys, camped nearby, aided in digging ' out the relic.
