MONDAY, DECEMBER 10, 1934. PAGE SIX PLATTSMOUTH SEMI WEEKLY JOURNAL Counsels Rais ing Sugar Beets in This Section C. H. Thomas Urges This as a Means cf Developing Sources of Em ployment for Labor. To the majority of the American people, the sugar beet industry is of little or no importance. It looks rea sonable to believe that right now, while we have eighteen million peo ple on relief rolls, that the raising of sugar beets and manufacturing of HELP KIDNEYS IP your kidneys function badly and you have a lame, aching back, with attacks of dizziness, burning, scanty or too frequent urination, getting up at night, swollen feet and ankles, rheumatic pains . . . use Doan's Pills. Doan's are especially for poorly functioning kidneys. Millions of boxes are used every year. They are recommended the country over. Ask your neighbor! OOAfJ'S PELLS chinery uow perfected that will cut the costs of production at least $0.00 per acre along with the fact that the land has nroved itself in me our own sugar should be of vital im-! American Deet Sugar Company of portance. If the farmers cf the Cen tral West were permitted to raise enough beets on the river valleys at the fixed price now on sugar beets so that we would be producing 80 per cent of the sugar Ave consume in Etead of 27 per cent, we would see millions of dollars being spent build ing sugar refineries and thousands of people being put to work, in the fields as well as in the refineries. For it keeps one man plenty busy to care for 10 acres of beets where the same man could take care of from 60 to 80 acres of corn, which means that it takes C or 8 times the labor to produce the same amount of acres of beets as it does corn. And it keeps from 200 to 350 men busy most all winter in one refinery. There we have the Missouri River valley, the Platte, the Elkhorn be sides numerous smaller valleys that would raise better sugar beets dry farming than they are raising on their irrigated land in the western part of the state. Right here at home we have rail roads, running every direction, good highways, and possibly a waterway, one of the most convenient distrib uting points in the middle west. Now with our thousands of acres and people lying Idle and with ma- Mason City, Iowa, had a field of 40 ccrca nfar Hamburg:. Iowa, which produced 16 tons per acre testing 15 per cent sugar fat. Here is one in rftistrv that, if developed, will do more than all the river and dam pro jects put together will ever do, to help us out of the depression. Ask any banker or business man in any town or locality where they raise sugar beets and he will tell you that the people who arc paying their debts are the beet growers. Why not investigate the possibility of a home or government owned sugar refinery. Being3 our president has put a fixed price on sugar beets as well as raised the quota on home grown sugar, its at least a prospect worth of consideration. C. K. THOMAS.

No age limit has been established, but enrollment will be confined to younger men. comprenenslve, practical courses will be offered, said Biart. There will bo no "frills" in the curriculum, he said.
