(Continued from page 2.) cornea, of course, In the month of November, December, January, and onetimes February. No female help la employed In the factories, and this means (hat hundreds of men who find employment In the auminer rath- ' er an eaay thing to get are not forced to accept taska at Insignificant wages'. The force of this argument (If auch It be) losea Itself on the man from , tbe city became of the fact that (a moat large cities It la comparatively eaay for men to find work. Going back to the aubjoct of mort gage, hank depoalts, collection etc., It la a matter of record that few farm ers who depended upon th sugar beet crop had been forced to delay the payment of mortgages. The farm er who grows beets knnwa far In ad- vanro now mucn no win gei ior m crop. He knows that ho will get this money practically as soon aa he de liver his beets, and he can tell his creditors Just what date he will be able to moot their claims. The beet companies, never hovo been back ward about paying for their raw ma terials nnd there Is no reuson for bo llevlng that they ever will be. Grocers nre not forced Into carry ing farmers on their books until late in the fall or winter In order to get payment for bills. Growers of beets are bta to got advances on their crops, if they seed tho money, In or der to meet expenses. When a man grows a grain crop ho doesn't know in the spring, or summer for that matter, what ho Is going to receive. This always doponds upon the condi tions or, the market at tho time he sella, whether It be In winter or fall r ine lUilOWMIH KI'IiilK. limit, no in holding hla crop, his gr6cer la holding Win., In turn, the wholesaler 1a hold ing up the groccr and this results In general feeling of dissatisfaction. This additional ready money 're sults In Improved buildings, fences, drainage, otc. Sugar beeta need H that is well drained In order to thrive, and the well drained field al ao meana that the succeeding crops show Improvement. A farmer who does not gtva portion of his acre age over to sugar beets seldom goes to this trouble and thin It another advantage. The difference between the returns on an acre of wheat grid an acre tf sugar beets la shown by the atate ment that an acre of wheat brings ft R to the farmer; an acre of augar beets shows a return of $60. This ',' means that the assesRod valuation of the property la much greater and farmers are able to dispose of their land at heavier prices and greater margins of profit than In the days of the grain growers. D..II AvunKta of 41ia MlnMimn Afrrl- cultural college have proven that sugar beets, when growni In rotation with , other crops, ' leave the soli In hotter shape for the following season nnd other crops plunted later always show heavier yields than they would have had augar beets not been 'plant ed. The future of this Industry depends upon the people. While the Euro pean war la In progress sugar pro ducers have little fear because tbe growers and manufacturers across the Atlantic are too busy attending to other troubles to Indulge In a trade war. But ' ' . When this, war finds ita end there will have to be a tariff on augar or the beet augar Industry, with Its wide reaching benefits and Its heavy In vestment, and bright future, will slip back and Into the discard among manufacturing Industries. , This, It would seem, should an swer the question of the Man In the Street aa to the worth of tbe buslnem to the commonwealth of Michigan and to the I'nltcd States as a whole.
