He explained that of the funds collected remains right in the county, to be used in aiding victims of the dread disease here. The other half goes to the National Foundation for research work in an effort to find a cure for the disease. "The Infantile Paralysis fund was not included in the recent United War Fund drive," Morrison explained, 'for the reason that this is not strictly a war activity, although its active and constant prosecution is of vital 'importance in our total war effort. The Infantile Paralysis Fund was a pro Ject before the war, and unless a cure or positive preventative is found, it will continue to be a worthy cause after hostilities have ceased. It Is not connected with the war fund in any way, and it is to be hoped that people will contribute generously to this worthy cause as the campaign gets under way." BEET ASSOCIATION COMMITTEE REC- d.

Shumways of Garland were Sunday dinner guests at the Jack Shumway home. During the past two years, farmers have been reluctant to plant the regular acreage of sugar beets, we believe principally because of a lack of assured farm help and because of higher prices offered for competitive farm crops. We are therefore happy to report at this time a partial solution to these farm troubles. Uncle Sam has requested a 42 per cent increase over our 1943 beet plantings in this area for the coming year. The government now sees a positive need for this Increase in our war effort, the necessity to produce additional sugar besides the forage and animal food produced as from the sugar beet crop. It is estimated by food economists that the production in manpower hours invested in an acre of beets give better returns than for any other farm crop. Now we have good reason to Box Elder County will get at least 300 Mexican nationals as our share of 60,000 that will be transported into the western states this spring. This help should be sufficient to replace the duties performed by the boys who have been drafted into the armed forces from our farms during the past year. There is no point in arguing the substitution of labor in this exchange, but it should be reassuring to many farmers who are bewildered at present where theif coming year's help Li relied upon. We have at present in the county sufficient housing facilities to accomodate these laborers. We hereby point out that perhaps a few of these nationals will be of a disposition to desire a share contract with farmers, but they should be able to supply enough help to prevent farmers from becoming panicky in competing for help by offering unreasonable high shares of their believe that (Continued On Page Two) Suggestive Fair Share Labor Beet Schedule 30 Tonnage 10 11 12 13 Labor Cost Total Labor Cost $38.05 39.08 40.13 41.10 $11.42 $497 1 4U)9 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 43.10 44.17 45.20 46.37 47.71 . of Labor Cost 49.05 50.39 51.73 53.07 11.72 12 04 12.33 12 00 12.93 13.25 13.56, 13.91 14.31 14.72 15.12 15.52 15.92 50.80 52.17 53.43 54.59 56.03 57.42 58.76 C0.28 62.02 63.77 65.51 67.25 68.99 Gross Contract.
