MORE EXPERT TESTIMONY. Sugar beet culture haa been a fo lux Industry In Utah and Colorado and other states tor many years past, and the ' beet as a crop haa been pretty veil established. It has be come just as staple la many sections as is wheat or corn In others, and the average yield that can be expect ed has been determined through years of culture. When experts lell at, therefore, that the nest beets eve! seen growing at the period of growth el those In the Rogue ralley are right here. It comes aa the strongest kind of a testimonial. Bishop C. W. NIbley has Just returned to Salt Lake city after rlslting the Rogue ralley, and the Deseret News says the fol lowing: "Bishop C. W. Nibley, who has re turned from a visit to Oregon and Washington, says the sugar beets be ing grown for the Grants Pass fac tory look unusually well, in fact the beat patches exceed any beets he ever beheld at the same time of year." The spring In the Rogue ralley, as elsewhere In the agricultural dis tricts, was not the best for the plant ing and early growth of crops, and It la moat encouraging to know that theee men who are experts speak ao highly of the Rogue ralley beets. It stamps this district as perfectly adapted to beet culture. The fact that' all fields of beets do not come up to, the mark should discourage no one. There were lessons to be learned, and the first year was the year to learn them. Next year there will be fewer mistakes made In the planting, for it is now demonstrated that, given a fair chance, our beets can distance all competition. It is freely predicted that records are to be made by Rogue ralley beeta this year -. 18 Pounds FANCY JAP RICE SATURDAY SPECIAL KINNEY !& TRUAX GROCERY Quality! First MURPHY .1 airs.

SENATE FOR BIG NAVY. (Tontloied from page 1.) ' OREGON AS AN EXAMPLE. California is already entering upon her next campaign against booze, with Oregon supplying much of the campaign argument for both sides of the question. In the face of the fact that practically every city In Oregon shows an Improved condition of fin ances, the banks have more money on deposit, Indebtedness ha. been de creased, and the general tone of busi ness Is much better than a year ago, it is difficult to see where the sup porter, of John Barleycorn will get much comfort from the purely indus trial side of the argument. Now comes the statement that the num ber of criminal, sent to tbe Oregon state penitentiary for the first six months of the year Is reduced by 41 per cent over a like period of last year. This Is ample proof that liquor is responsible for the most of the crime, and that without liquor there will be less expense upon the state through the operation of its criminal courts and of Its penal Institutions. The licenses received from the legal ized tale of liquor never did pay one half the added coBt of courts and of the care of criminals made such through booze. If the people of Cali fornia are not blinded through pre judice, they will see in Oregon a shining example of the benefits fol lowing the outlawing of the liquor traffic. ' California will soon join the procession. . ' ' finitely the pending difficulties or I the white out ahow. m tionL those that may arise In the future,!
