New Yorkers need not lack for sugar in their breakfast coffee after all nor will there be a scarcity of bon bons along the Rialto. With the opening of 10 beet sugar plants in California, American productiveness nnd industry are again meeting a serious war emer gency in time to avoid hardship on the consumer, it was announced by sugar men here last week. There is an enormous shortage of sugar in the American market but the flow of beet and cane sugar produced on American soil has begun, and the immense army of serious American women also who have planned extensive canning and preserving campaigns may contem plate the situation with equanimity. The opening of the beet cutting plants in California is the beginning of the 1917-18 American sugar season, and the production of American sugar will continue practically throughout the year. Altogether . American soil produces 2,500,000 tons of beet and cane sugar, more than half of the sup ply needed here in America. It is es timated that this country will need this year approximately four million tons of sugar, importing approximate ly two million tons from Cuba. Fortunate it is that this protected infant industry has grown into lusty manhood in time to be drafted into the j country' 8 industrial war equipment. The usual pre-war surplus from Ger man, Austrian and Russian sources have been cut off for the past three years. French nnd Belgian beet sugar fields are under the heel of the enemy. England producs-no sugar, but has had to turn to Cuba instead of Germnny and Russia, with the result that Amer ica was face to face with a serious sugar famine, 'which only her own pro ductiveness nnd industry has prevented.

Emily News ML Emily, Aug. 29. (Special. ) There is much stock up here that is owned by well to do farmers down in the valley who ought in all fairness to look after it more than they do. Feed and water are about gone except in a very few places. The stock stays right around these few places where the owners live and is becoming an intol erable nuisance. As long as there is plenty of feed and water stock looks after itself and is little bother to any one, but after these are gone or about gone the owners of the stock should show a little feeling and pity for it as well as for the human dwellers in the mountains. Whenever stock eats off the, huckleberry bushes it's a sign that they are in need of other feed and they should be taken to where other feed can be had. The owners ought to, and easily could arrange things so that about this time every year the stock would be looked after by one of their number and driven to where there is feed and water. Cattle and horses are now too valuable to raise them on the principle of "root hog or die." People living in the mountains should not be expected to furnish free pasture for this stock and then be pestered to death by it when the free pasturage is gone. The owners are also subject to a heavy trespass fine when the stock grazes within the Na tional Forest which it often does. The long dry spell has caused a grass and water shortage a little sooner thnn usual. In many places water could still be had for the stock if the springs were curbed and the water led into troughs by those who should .take a little interest in such improvements. . The lack of rain nnd the over abundance of pickers have greatly re duced the supply of huckleberries. Totals are unknown but no doubt many hundred gallons were picked in this region. What are left are either in places hard to reach or else arc not yet ripe enough to pick. J. II. B.
