WHY NOT TRY SUGAR
BEET CULTURE HERE
For several years the Amorican
Beet Sugar company of Rocky Ford,
bas tried to interast the growers of
Florence in the zaising of sugar beets.
This scems to be an especially favor
able year to give the subject some
consideration as wa are looking for
other crops besides apples.
The Rocky Ford factory will buy
sugar beets of the Florence growers
and’ pay exaotly the same price de
livered at the cars in Florence as is,
paid to the grower who lives in thei
city limits of Rocky Ford. |
This seems emineuntly fair and puts
the individusl grower at home on as
good a basis as if we had a sugar beet
factory at our town.
The company wants o make oon
traots with grcwers here for a de
finite number of acreage. Last year
this company stated that Its oon
tracts could be secured for 150 aores
an agrioulturist would be sent here
at the expenso of the company to
assist the farmers {in getting the
best results possible.
So with all these oppertunities
just as good as 1 we had a sugar
faotory in this section it seems that
n good many people might become
int erested in the crop.
It has been proven that Fremont
county soil is ocapable of growing
a8 many beets to the acre and a
quality of beet with as large per
cent of sogar as any section of
the state.
But our people have all run to high
prioced crops, and have depended al
most entirely on their apple orops.
1t would have been better for the
community if a third of the land had
been put to beete and other aunual
orops.
The beet orop is a good thing for
the grower and for the town.
The grower can by careful ounlti
vation realize from $75 to SSO per acre
for his beeta.
The beet orop is a good thing for
the community for everv dollar paid
for the beet crop lis spent within the
ocommunity. There i{s no expense
exoept the labor and so every dollar
paid out by the grower goes direotly
to support the residents here.
A beet orop is not a difficult crop
to) raise. Ita suocess, however, de
pends upon the care and oultivation
of the grower.
Shortage of water is the greatest
drswhack in most sugar beet sections.
That would not trouble our growers
in the least and we should get the
maximum crops here,
The American Beet Sugar 00. pub
lishes a oircular giving the names,
amount raised to the acre and
amount of ocash received by each
per acre for his orop and is now
advertising in The Daily Tribune
for Florence acreage
Here arc a few of the Rocky
Ford growers, showing amount real
ized per more by each:
R. N. Harrla - - #2190

W. L. McOlimans - - 1656
J. W. Belew . - 147
8. W. Hood - - - 148
G. W. Fenason - . 18!
And many others running above
SIOO por acre,
The company olaims thare oanuot
be no overproduction as it will con
tract to buy all beets raised.
Of course some land about here s
too valuable to put out in this crop
but we havea lot of land that would
do well and give good retuine In
beets 1t is & quick orop. Plant it
in the spriog and reap it In the fall,
There is no danger from drouth here, |

matter.
HIGH SCHOOL CADETS
AND THEIR UNIFORMS
1o talkimg with Msjor Oriddle,
commandant of the High school'cad
ets, our reporter learns that there
seems tc be a misapprehension on the
part of a few of the parents rogard
pg uniforms. Wliile a beautiful cad
ot grey uniform was adopted as a
dress uniform, it was not at all in
tended ‘tu confine the membership to
those who buy uniforms. On the con
trary, all the pupils who are williug
to work, learn the diill and. obay
the regulations, are gladly welcomed,
whether they have uniforms or not.
Of course the sooner all are equipped
the better, but many of che parents
do not care to buy uniforms until fall,
and in such cases they should not de
prive the boys of the privilege of the
drill, as they will be given the ssme
oare and attention as¢ those who have
uniforms.
For a service uniform, which can
gradually ke acquired by the boys
withont extra expense, the officers
think a pair of khaki trousers with
kbaki colored shirt, and inexpensive
hat or cap of uniform design, is ad
mirably adapted.
Many if not most of the younger
‘boys wear overalls to play in and 1u
stead of using blue overalls, they can ‘
for about the same money, buy the |
uniform above mentioned, from the
local stores, and they oan be worn
to school and on the atreet, for or
dinary wear, leaving the grey for
dress and the grey suits can be pro
vided, when new suits are needed for
the boys, even if one at a time. 1n
this way without any special expense,
the boys will all be lin uniform and
& little later will have both a dress
and service uniform.
We are greatly pleased to learn
that a cadet corps has been organized
here, as it works to the benefit of the
pupils physically and mentally and
we hope in time to see an orgauiza
tion equal to those in other cities.
FOURTEENTH ANNIVERSARY.
The Dally Tribune is fourteen
years old today, in other words it
was the first day of March fourteen
yoears ago that the first edition was
struck off the presses, and in all that
time the paper has been issued with
out interraption. We will let the
reading public be the judge as to
whether the paper has. fulfilled its
mission as & newspapor and family
periodical. Such small oities as
Florence, usually, do not have daily
papers as long as this city has had;
they usually start up, run a few
months and then die aborning.
But through many adveristies,
The Tribune is sti!l alive and {a
atill a hoalthy paper. 1t has al
ways fought for the bost interesta
of the city and its people, never
at any time forsaking the news
features. Of ocourse there are times
when news is not very plentifal,
but that is due to conditions, and
since any newspaper is a record of
the transactions of the city, and
the only complete one that can be
secured, it is not the fault of the
paper when the naws isnot printed.
Indications are av this time that
The Daily Tribune will continue
its careor of usefulnes in Florence
for years to come.
