O ONFj time sinco the Mail Tribune publiHlied n sum iiinry taken from the New York Times Khowitij? the averatre liriee paid for smrar beets in Europe, where the growers are paid upon a sliding seale, dependent upon tin; quantity of sugar contained in beets and the value oi sugar 111 the market. This year the growers are averaging irom $8 up per ton lor beets. The Denver Uoelcy Mountain News of June 30 eon laiiiH the announcement that two new million-dollar beet sugar factories are td be constructed in the district north of J)enver, one by a new corporation to be known as the Northern Sugar company, at Fort Lupton, and one, the tenth factory of tho Great western bugar company, to be located at Brighton. The new factories offer farmers a' minimum price of $(J a ton flat for sugar beets running from 12 to 17 per cent sugar, with 12l cents increase for every half per cent of sugar content above 17 per cent. The Utah-Idaho company is paying $5 per ton mini mum this year, and announce for next year $5.50 per ton for 12 to 15 per cent beets, and for each half per cent over 15 per cent an additional 10 cents. A .$(5 flat rate is paid in Michigan and other states, but with the fabulous profits at present in the sugar business the grower is entitled to share in the profits ol the nidus fry. The Great Western Sugar company in 1!)M paid $5.7.), as against S5'l.7; paid by the Utah-Idaho. In Wash inglon the price paid was $5.75. In California as long ago as 1911, $5.;J() was paid, while this year around $0 will be paid. According to a summary of the industry by James IT. Wolf in the Utah Survey, the average price received by the grower in the United States before i!)12 was $5.;I0 a ton more than offered by the Utah company this boom sugar year, when its stock has advanced in value by leaps aud bounds. The University of Minnesota agricultural experiment station has issued a bulletin on the cost of producing sugar beets by F. VPeek, which shows that in Minnesota the total cost of producing an acre of beets was $'17.05. On the average normal yield basis of f),82 tons per acre, the cost per ton was $'1.85. In addition to the profit, the producer received $7.7-1 per acre as land rent, and $23,111 as pay for his own labor, a total income over other expenses of $32.50 per acre. Where contract labor was employed the pro ducer had $15.31 per acre for rent, his own labor, and for profit. The tops averaged $'l.!0 per acre. It would seem the part of wisdom to require the TJtah rdaho company to pay as much for beets grown in the Rogue Itivcr valley as paid elsewhere with a sliding scale dependent upon the profits in the manufacture, so that the local grower would participate in the profits which his labor helps create. What Does Carranza Represent? An nrlii'lt' Iiiim jiihI lit'cn puliliHlicil in tlio prcHH which imrpniU to have of Mexico, juxt before his death, tell ing of Mexico's "neeil for n dictator" and ictunutr Tarrauaa aa the worst and moat welfiitlt of men. It so liapieus that 1 lutvr recently had a aeries or oouvHraationH with an American of ttbility, a woll known man of distinctly democratic mind wlui Iihh spent sovoral monlliN in a 'careful study of Mexico on tlio jrroiiiMl. He is a traiiuHt ohsener. lie has no financial iutcioeis in Mex ico. He line lived Hainan the for eitmera in Mexican cities, talked with them, and heard their aide of tlio Mexican eiluwIioH. lie has gone over the usual lines of Mexican travel, kas iieuented 1o the hack district in several states of Mexico, and has beea witii Carrnn xu armicH, has HcctuuiMiuied CarraiisM himself, weeks ut a time, has trie to become uciimiuted with the labor ing ami HHtn classes, and has made a Ioiir careful effort to understand the Mexican situation from the polut of view of the Mexican of all tdaasos I would as soon trust his judgment as my own if I bad had lu opsr- tuiiity; for 1 believe in his ability as an auasyst of facts, in Ilia intellect ual inlegjity, and in his sincerity of put pose. He went after facts, and he is the sort of a man who gets facta when he goes after them. "We hear u great deal of the Hv crty, famine and dcxolatUm of Me icii," subj I. "What aix the faets about tuulf" He told me that theie is undoubt wily much distress in the couutry, but that it is found mainly iu the cit ies iu thf merthnnt ond slioikeeiiug classes, ami among the forwer land owners uiid their deH'iideuts. Out iu the open eouutr), umong the peo ple who are actual prwlnters, the general standard of rout fort is hiW than it has been for many years. The former ieons now nr at work op their htud, aud are living off their products. Where the count r hux been ocirun by the onuif, there i much dtstiess even among the workers, for the armies aae had to ,eul. u t'Uch regions there is starvation and disease, ung all the other horrible accouiiuiuuueut of war. Itnt the M'opU' us n whuli ait eu- tllUMll-tli 1H tul till' IVXllllltlOl), bc- chiimi it has given them hack their lands ntul freed them from slavery been written by lluetta, tlio dictator They would not for anything go bank to llunrtn, or tho Diar. conditions "The rewdution," he khuI "Iihs gien the masses of Mexico a vision of freedom ami the right of land and free labor. Make no mistake, they ean nover he put hack where they were. They think that iiilcnontiou on the part of the United States would be for tho purpose of putting them Inii'k into "order" and the "poHeo" of the Piuic regime, and thoy would lime to he exterminated before tliev would submit. It is useless to say tliev are wrong about the inter vention of the United States. Nobody can convince them that they im wrong and if we so iu there to re store order, they will think of the "order" of peonage and land thievery and they will come on mid die under our iiiiiih in countless numbers. They will come 011 und on until the sluuv'lit er will sicken the soul of the Americ an peopl." This, to the Mexican, is what the revolution icprcseuts; ami to most of them, Ciirruusa represents the rexolutiou. It is striking! v like a French rendition or the old rcuilt out of which grew five Switicrlaud. I COMMUNICATION.

Of course, the filler is what makes a cigar. You don't realize it, often enough, but it's there just the same. Down inside the snug brown wrapper,, it lies. It's the heart of the cigar, ft gives the flavor and fra grance of the cigar. The wrapper, of course, is just the surface coating. Now in the OWL you get only long leaf filler, running the full length of the cigar. This enables the factory to get just the proper blend in every OWL something which is impos sible with short cut (scrap) filler. Moreover, this long leaf filler is clean. You can unroll an OWL and see the filler, if you want to. But you don't have to look to know that the filler is long leaf. You can tell from the way it tastes and burns. Remember that every leaf of this filler is time -cured and mellowed before you get it. Its flavor is insured by the million dollars' worth of leaf kept in constant reserve for the OWL. vEnfaSlgaW ! iiftv y i YlLBJ'"IB'll,'ll,lIM The Million Dollar Cigar M. A. GUNST & CO.
