I5IVESIMEHT Riant Is Bisnnial and Roots Do Not, Undsr Normal Conditions, Send Up Seed Stalks and Develop Seed " Until Second Year. (Prepared by the United States ' Department of Agriculture.) One of the first requisites of a per- inmanent and satisfactory dustry is an adequate supply of seed of good quality. It has been scarce and as a result the production of sugar-bee- t seed in the United States has made rapid progress during the past few years. The present annual requirement in this country is approximately 16,000,000 pounds, of which about 50 per cent is within the " nations borders. With the continued development of the sugar-bee- t industry more and more seed is required each year, but It is confidently expected by specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture that eventually the total American requirement will be grown in this country. In. order to encourage the seed and assist growing of sugar-bee- t in its development along proper lines, the department recently published Bulletin 1152, Farmers Growing Sugar-Bee- t Seed in the Rocky Mountain States.", Investment Required The development of this industry has been greatest in the Irrigated secof Colorado, Montana, Utah and tions u&ukftj. ibOuJ ofift thm, 99 ftijt Idaho, and special reference is given in the bulletin to the growing of sugar-bee- t seed in this region.

HEN in 176 the president of the Second Continental Congress put his John Hancock to A Declaration by the Representatives of the United States of America in General Congress Assembled he wrote it so large and ,so plain that he then and there gave to the American language a new and enduring 'synonym. There ! said the delegate from Massachusetts, George III will be able to read that without his spectacles. And as he touched it up and blackened the heavy strokes of the quill he remarked to his fellow delegates ; But we must be unanimous; there must be no pulling different ways. We must all hang together. "We must Indeed all hang together, replied Benjamin Franklin of Pennsylvania, or most we shall all hang separately. ' We Americans of 1921 can read a lot between ' the lines of these two historic utterances, if we do a little digging into American history enough digging to get a clear idea of what brought about the Declaration of Independence. And it Is every good Americans patriotic duty to do that same digging and do lit now. Of course were not all tarred with the same brush but to use more American similes Its dollars to doughnuts that the average American doesnt know enough to last jhlm across the street about the causes leading up jto the Revolution. And as for the Declaration Itself he couldnt to save his life tell what half of ilt means. This is a bad business In itself and its , especially bad right now. ; For we are going to have a new kind of Fourth of July celebration in the United States of Amer-.- . lea. The Fourth has quit being the day of fireworks and casualties. And in the new kind of Fourth of July celebration the Declaration of Independence will come to its own as the crowning touch of public observance, The American Revolution is the greatest stepping-ston- e in the march of the centuries toward freedom and the Declara-;tio- n of Independence is its symbol. Though the Declaration of Independence Is to 'come back to its own, the new Fourth will not be the day when the American Eagle screams and the orator bawls because Uncle Sam handed John !Bu11 a K O a century and a half ago. There are two reasons for this. One is the World war. John Bull and Uncle Sam now stand shoulder to shoulder in defense of all that our common race holds dear of personal freedom and political Ideals. ' The other is the fact that the Revolution was not a quarrel between two peoples the British people and the American people. It was, in its earlier stages at least, a strife between' two different political and economic systems. It was no unrelated event, but formed a part of the history of the race on both continents. There was a Brit- - l8h revolution at the same time there was an American Revolution. The British revolution was to regain liberty. The American Revolution was - to preserve liberty. On both sides of, the Atlan tic the king's prerogatives were the aim of revi olutionary attack. Now, as to the many things that may be rend between the lines of what Hancock and Franklin said, here's just a hint: Hancock was a rich merchant. It was part of the purpose of the British troops at Lexington and Concord to capture Hancock. At that time Hancock was respondent in the Admiralty court lit suits of the, crown to recover nearly half a million dollars as penalties alleged to have been Incurred for violation of the laws of navigation and trade. Hancock had Inherited his fortune from his uncle, Thomas Hancock, who had become wealthy smuggling tea. So it was no more than right that John should sign his name large and plain Hancock to the- document which, if made good, would save him from financial ruin and give him free commerce with all the world.

He made a clever is Jest, but no man there knew better that there many a true word spoken in jest So the truth is that on our side of the ocean the fundamental causes leading up to the Revolution were both political and economic and posarsibly quite as much economic as political., To folrive at the main features of the situation,' the : ' , lowing chronology Is helpful 1760 Accession of George III.

Truck for d centers and secure the commodities which he must obtain from these same centers, specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture have found. There has been a keenly felt need in many rural communities for such a means of transportation. While in most places trucks are owned and operated either by the farmers for their personal benefit, or by private individuals who hold themselves ready to haul for the public generally at an agreed rate, it Is believed that many rural communities ' would find it more economical to form motor truck associations. Many fanners who live within 10 to 25 miles of consuming centers raise berries, fruit, and truck crops, and most of them deliver their produce directly to the city markets. During the busy season this requires several trips each yeek. To make the trip by team means a long, hard day for both men and , , horses. Before undertaking the formation of such an association, specialists of the department advise that a survey lie made to determine that an actual need exists and that there will be sufficient business to warrant operating at least one truck. It must be remembered, too, they say, that the personal factor will in a large measure determine the ; ultimate success of the association.
