Is Competent Farmer
Onp cannot spend a day with C.
T. Gilbert without appreciating
the fact that he is a competent
farmer, because his ideas on farm
ing arc fundamentally sound, and
they have met every test put up
to them in a practical way. -
On one occasion he told me
that if "WaldO Hills Guernsey
Farm," had done nothing else
than to make good farmers and
good men out of his sons, he would
be mighty thankful, and I thought
to myself, what else could have
been . expected with C. T. Gilbert
as a model and a pattern for the
boys to follow?
In Conclusion
Let those people who do not
know what real farming is, -and
who are not true farmers by nature.-and
who can see ns romance
in farming, go into an automobile
factory and sticx a bolt in the
hole as the hole comes by.
But we devoutly hope that our
economic and social system will
preseiwe each individually effec
tive farm citizen In order that our
country life and farming in gen
eral may hold their own and have
a chance to develop as they
should.

are the overhead costs for interest.

The Forces of the Cuban Junta of Sugar interests, Backed
by the Wall Street Barons, Are Spreading: Their, Poison,
With a View to Killing; the Beet and Cane Sugar Indus
tries in this Country Nation's Prosperity Comes From
Production Rather Than From Consumption
Editor Statesman: -
We are -enclosing a copy of a
publicity article that shows an In
timate knowledge of "sugar pol
itics." This article has, been pub
lished in a great number of pap
ers In the United States and is the
first thing of the kind we have
seen that even intimates there is
another side to the story besides
Cuban sugar.
For three hundred years sugar
has been grown in Louisiana.
Some of the sugar plantations, are
still In the hands of the descend
ants of the original owners.
Through good years and bad years,
through assaults, victories and de
feats both- in Louisiana and at the
nation's capital, these people have
carried on, 'defending their rights
to produce sugar against the cheap
tropical labor of the West Indian
Islands and believing that a na
tion's prosperity comes from pro
duction rather than from con
sumption. They are Fighters
Through an unfortunate econ
omic condition that people of the
northern states cannot understand
(the writer of this formerly lived
In the south), their political as
sociation has been with the party
whose policy, if followed to Its
logical conclusion, would effect
ually wipe their business "off the
map," bat they have courageously
"catrled on." Whipped to a stand
still during the first Wilson ad
ministration, they still refused to
give up.' The World , war saved
them when congress had to re
store the tariff. Organizing an
association for protection, they
took In as members every one even
remotely connected-with the pro
duction of cane sugar grown in
Louisiana, and even then J t is com
paratively a small association.
During the fight over the Ford-ney-McCumber
tariff bill in 1920,
when the beet - sugar people
through divided counsel were will
ing to compromise in their recom
mendations, this little association
resolutely refused, knowing a
compromise meant defeat.
Through their representative in
Washington they said they would
not give up but would carry on
alone if necessary. . Since then
misfortune has still further dogged
their . tracks. The mosaic disease
attacked their cane, production of
sugar dropped from 300,000 tons
to less than 50,000 tons; still they
would not give up; some of the
members became bankrupt, old
plantations that had been in the
family for generations were sold
under the hammer for a. song. It
only made them draw their belts
a little tighter? -they would ; not
yield. Cane that was resistant to
the mosaic disease was obtained
from foreign countries and put out
carefully to supply planters. Then
this spring floods came and threa
tened to destroy this supply. Par
tial success followed their heroic
efforts to save .some of' this valu
able seed cane. Still they are far
from ' being, saved. So poor are
some of these people that the ques
tion is how they are going . to -be
able to find money to pay for this
new seed cane. These men will
find a way somehow. They are a
remnant of the once prosperous
Louisiana sugar producers and are
far from beaten they are not
made of the stuff that gives up.
Will not Give Up
Mr. Kile in the publicity article
enclosed Is. wrong in thinking they
are out of the game." - When the
fight comes again, -and it will
come, you' will find them In Wash
ington battling against the Cuban
Interests and their New York City
allies.' who are seeking to destroy
their home, and their home-land.
A braver, a more courageous or
ganization of men Is not to be
found In this country. All honor
to them! " ' ' ' - f
The significant part of this pub

reason he does not consider them
very dangerous as antagonists to
Cuban sugar; - he even makes
mention that in the event- the
Louisiana cane people acknowl
edge they are down and out pos
sibly some other agricultural or
ganization would take up their
fight for them. We are inclined
to doubt this. The wooL men
will look after their own inter
ests, the wheat men after theirs,
and it is not likely they have the
time, the money or the know-
edge to interest themselves in
the sugar people.
If anything is done it must be
by our own efforts standing on

the subject of the beet industry,
lie spoke before the Salem Rotary
club last year. The subject he
writes about is of deep concern to
the people of the Salem district
and the rest of the Willamette
valley, because we , must develop
the beet sugar- industry here in
order to get our slacker and idle
acres to work -in order to make
our valley really great and pros
perous. The following is the pub
licity article he refers to, written
by O. M. Kile, Washington, D.
C.:)
Cuba Junta Marking
"Already the .free trade sugar
interests are beginning to .suggest
that rather than; rehabilitate the
Louisiana cane region, why not
take the tariff off of sugar and
buy it from Cuba?
"Of course, this argument ig
nores the sugar beet - industry,
which last year supplied 810,000
long tons of the 6,500,000 tons of
sugar consumed in the United
States. But Cubans realize that
their most severe Opposition to
free trade has in the past come
from the Louisiana producers
rather than from the beet produc
ers. This may not be true at the
present time, but, with the Loui
sianians out of the way, the chance
for Cuba to get free access to Am
erican markets would certainly be
greatly increased. i
"Farm leaders recognize iin this
situation a serious problem from
the national agricultural view
point. Just now, when a, great
effort is being made to find crops
to substitute for corn and -wheat,
particularly . crops that we can
consume at home, -it would be a
serious setback to have the sugar
industry killed off or curtailed.
The corn belt is .interested more
than ever because of the recently
developed possibility of growing
artichokes as a sugar crop.
"It appears now that a new
drive for free sugar may be made
next winter when congress gets
under way, and that one of the
stalwart bulwarks agalnBt such
drives in the past will find itself
in a crippled and weakened condi
tion. it Is- believed, however, that
farm Interests from sections of the
country not heretofore particular
ly interested In this questfon, will
rally to the eause and aid their
Louisiana brothers."

VEHCH BEET
The Feeding of Beef Cattle Requires for Its Substantial
Growth the By-Products of Sugar Beet Growing and
Processing This Applies Also to Sheep Feeding and
Dairying and the Breeding of Poultry; . . ;r
"The change in the complexion
of cattle and sheep raising," said
Townsend Monell, of the Western
Slope , BeetvGrowera association
of Colorado and f Utah., in 1925,
"adds to the gravity of the prob
lems facing the growers of sugar
beets. We have to raise sugar
beets on our irrigated land every
four years to free it of weeds and
suit it for grains and, other crops.
Furthermore, .the nation's meat
supply .is becoming more and
more interlocked with the sugar
beet problem. - - j r r"'r:;w
"Add to these considerations
the fact that we now produce only
one-fourth enough sugar to supply
our domestic - needs,: and are " de
pendent on foreign. sources for the
other seventy-five per cent, and
it becomes easy to see the im
portance of preserving the budding
domestic industry 4'
Mr. . Monell'a association gives
the cost of raising beets per acre
as follows: plowing $3.95; level-
! f ft n . J mm no.

preciation of stock and equipment
$2.00; interest on stock and
equipment investment 35.00; taxes
on equipment $1.00; fertilization
$10.00.
These costs total eighty-six dol
lars an acre. The sugar beet grow
er is paid in direct proportion to
the price of sugar.
Not Higher Here
One of the highest authorities
we have in .this country says the
cost of growing sugar beets ought
o be somewhat lower in the Wil
lamette valley, especially in seas
ons and on lands requiring no
irrigation. The profits .depend on
several things, including fhe num
ber of tons grown on each acre,
the sugar content per ton, the
price of i sugary and the uses made
of the, pulp from the grinding of
the beets, the tops, and the mo
lasses; the by-products.
The iWillamette - valley, is in
position to make good use of the
by-products, in the" livestock in
dustry; ! in Increasing beef and
mutton and milk ' products and
poultry products.

not rob the .land. They get their
sustenance fro m the rain and the

: The beet industry -will. In build

Ls, Thau -a-' Sixth - -The
reader will notice that Mr.
MoneU'said in 1925 that we pro
duce only a fourth of bar sugar
supply. ; We now produce less than
a sixth of It in the form of beet
sugar in this country; Our sugar
consumption is ,now-' about six
million tons a year; .slightly over
that, and growing every year. We
produce In this country less than
a million'' tons -of beet sugar. ; We
get from the Philippines, Hawaii,
and Porto Rico, and from 'Louis
iana, enough' cane sugar to make
up about another million' tons.
Nearly all of the balance, 4,000,
000 tons, we get from Cuba;;cane
sugar. .... . . : . .'-.i v
The United States is the only
'great nation except England, de
pendent on outside sources for
most of Hs sugar supply. Eng
land, normally a free trade coun
try, three years ago put a bounty
of 4.24 cents on all home" produced
sugar, in the hope of developing
the domestic industry.
This in addition to a high tar
iff duty; higher than ours.' This
is having the desired effect.' Eng-
land has built up a bigleet sugar
ndustry, which keeps adding new
factories and adding new acreage
in sugar beets.
There is just one thing that will
quickly make the Willamette val
ley a leading livestock' country,
and Salem a live stock center,
and that is the building up here
of a great beet -sugar -industry,,
and no other one thing will give
more in direct and indirect bene
fits for the -Salem district, and
the whole valley.
