Manager sr Witoi i« 1 IRRIGATION PROJECTS IN WILLIAMS COUNTY (Continued from page 1.) '^rops are harvested he may put it off a year or even two, thug having twelve years' time in which to make his ten payments. Did any govern ment, at any time, in the world's history, every make such a provision for its people? It is no wondler Pres ident Roosevelt lauds the Act which provides for all this. Wherever irrigation is being carried on the culture of the sugar beet has been found most profitable. With over twenty million acres under irriga tion in the United States today, the average farm consists of ^ess than 30 acres. On these small farms intense cultivation is naturally the order of things and from five to twenty acres of sugar beets are grown annually. From 15 to 20 tons of beets is a fair crop and from $4.75 to $5.00 per ton is the running price at the factory. Labor, which has been the great draw back to the sugar beet industry in the west, is well provided for in the irrigated districts of the west. Japa nese labor, highly skilled at the work, contracts to take care of the beets from seeding time until they load them on wagons, for $'20.00 antj $21.00 per acre. Plowing the land, seed and hauling to market will cost the farmer not over $16.00 per acre, leaving him a net profit »f from $34.25 tot $63.00 per acre. Experiment® with sugar beets in Williams county have brought as high as 22 per cent saccharine in a beet weighing 4 1-2 pounds. Operators and owners of lax-ge factories have been over the county and are so well satisfied with the prospects that they have agreed to erect a one million dollar plant at Williston as soon as the government irrigation is under way and the re quisite acreage obtained. As beets will be grown and shipped from both the Buford and Nesson projects, a very large acreage will be secured. Irrigation means more to the west than any of the easterners can 9 ii BUSINESS NOTARY PUBLIC—INSURANCE JlGENT: PHONE NO.} 'MONEY TO LOAN—Largest amounts at',J. rates loaned from one to ten years.

It means th«| sooner or later the eastern farm^ will dispose of his high priced eastern land and go west, where, from a fin ancial standpoint and even from social standpoint he can better him self to an untold degree. PATRONIZE YOUR HOME MERCHANTS (Continued from page 1.) In short, will they do anything to provide a market for what vou hav«# to sell, and thereby keep the value of your estate? Will they do anything for school, church, t\r government support, or do they take your dollar out of the community with no returns except the goods you buy? After you have paid the express or freight on these goods, how much cheaper are they than if you had bought them of home merchants? It is just the same rule with the home merchant and manufacturer who sends away to get their letter heads, bills heads, en velopes, etc., printed) when such work can be done at home. Let us put this patronage of home merchant# and industry in this way. Are towrt halls, high schools, hotels, public li*. brarles, churches, doctors, etc., deslr-' able in your neighborhood. Destroy the home town "Industries and th^f, home spirit languishes and dles.Wltli' the town gone the people go.

Who will keep up the churches? They -Will go where the people are. Where' are the people going? To the larger cities. Why? Because too many times persons are sending their money to large cities. When money goes to large cities, the good teachers, good^ preachers, good doctors, follow ajpl to get the money—your money. 3 5 3 S I '•i -rH ih i*
