Just -heforo beginning operations Ihey made a wager with each other as to who would make tho "bigger catch or fish. Thoy had been fishing for about half an hour with little or no suc cess, when John, who was standing, lost his balance and fell off the pier.

All should make tho tost, as n boot sugnr factory is among tho valley's greatest needs, and nil effort will be made to secure such n factory before the year ends. A sugar factory hero would bo n paying proposition, viewed l'roni nny nugle. Not only in the impetus given to agriculture, stock raising and industry by its bi-produets, but in the homo market that exists lor the. sugar. Freight on sugar from Portland or San Francisco is o'OVi cents n 100 pounds, giving the homo fnofory n differential of this amount to meet competition. Medford nlone imports' about sixty carloads of sugnr n year, or 2,000,000 pounds. Jackson county's annual sugnr consumption probably totals approximately UK) car loads. The southern Oregon and northern California con sumption, in the territory served by Medford, will prob ably total 2oO carloads, or 0,000,000 pounds. At six cents a pound, this is over half a million dollars sent annually out of the country that could be kept here. To make this 250 carloads of sugar will alone require 2000 acres of sugnr beets, yielding, fifteen tons to the acre, containing 15 per cent sugnr. Therefore nearly half of the 5000 acres of sugnr beets required to sustain a factory will go to supply the local market, leaving the remaining to bo marketed in the torritorv ininiediatelv north and south, where tho freight differential in favor of Medford will per mit competition with San Francisco and Portland. It is evident, then, that a sugar factory in the Rogue River valley is a business proposition for sugar makers. Not only is the valley, with its wealth of sunshine and its favorable climatic and soil conditions, peculiarly adapted to boot culture, but its geographical location furnishes a local market for the output. While a local sugnr factory need not concern itself with foreign markets or production, conditions nil point to n continued high world market for sugnr. Fifty-throe per cent of the world's sugnr is produced bv the countries at war. Europe produces i)!t per cent of the beet sugar grown, most of it is produced in llernmny, Austria-Hungary and Russia. The United States is the largest per capita con sumer oL sugar, its one-sixteenth ot the world s population using one-titth ot the world s sugar, the per capita con sumption reaching over eightv-five pounds. The war has affected the Last year's Russian crop has export it. The industry in Poland, Belgium and northern France has been destroyed. Shortage in all European countries has resulted from the withdrawal of workers to the army, the destruction of factories to secure metal for war munitions, and curtailed planting. The prospective shortage will continue for veal's, whether the war speedily ends or not, assuring hifch price for sugar. Dad's Friend (Ben Larhptnnn in Gold Hill New.4.)
