RAISING SUGAR BETS.
A Branch Of Agriculture That Pays
Enormously.

A Branch Of Agriculture That Pays
Enormously.
The Sugar Beet.l
When we consider that 800, 100000
pounds Of sugar were made last cam
palgn in Louisiana, that the average
yield some years since was 100 pounds
to the ton, with IL to Is tons to the
acre land is now, in many cases, 200
pounds sugar to the ton, and 20 tons
cane per acre), the natural question
is, Why does not more capital center
in this Louisiana industry? The fac,
is, the constant Tariff tinkering has
resulted in want of confidence in the
future. The annual consumption OF
sugar in this country is about 81
pounds per capita; it was only 1881
In 1875, SO the increase has been 1876
pounds annually more than Great
Britain consumed during the same
interval.
Respecting these figures, it is in
teresting to notice that in the latter
country the consumers have been
both man and beast, while in the
United States the consumption has
been limited to man. On the one
hand sugar entered free; on the other
it was Protected. Taking this amour,
as near the truth, we may estimate
from several standpoints what money
fuel, area, raw material, labor, SC.
would be required to supply the sugar
we consume. AS years pass the mum
Der of inhabitants augmeEts, and the
aggregate demand for sugar becomes
greater. For sake Of argument, we
shall admit that the Louisiana, and
SO forth, production will supply the
increase. Without considering Eu.
ropean experience we may discuss
the question from an American stand,
point. The Western Beet>Sugar
Company Jacksonville, CALI and
Oxnari Beet Sugar Company Grand
Island, Neb J have each a working
capacity of over 800 tons per diem
The Alameda Beet-Sugar Company
(Alvarado, Cal is capable of hand
ling $50 tons beets in "a hours. The
average capital needed to build and
run each of the foregoing factories is
at least 100000; cost of 10000 tons
beets per factory during 100 days
campaign, $4,000; 5000 tons coal
5000; working expenses, including
fuel, 100000; a total, with beets
(raw materially l,2SO,00O.
At least 200 men and 5000 acres Of
Wood River times. [volume] (Hailey, Idaho) 1882-1915, 1891-03-21

land are required for each plant. To
meet our home demand for sugar 700
such factories would be required, and
they would need 2l,OOO,OOO tons OF
beets, an area of at least 100000
acres no allowance being made for
rotation of crops). To cultivate and
harvest the beet crop, an operation
lasting six months, about 100000
men would be required, besides huns
dreds Of thousands Of carts, horses,
etc. The railroad traffic arising from
this cultivation would alter the bal
ance sheets of many companies now
nearly bankrupt. This new freight
on railways would give occupation to
those directly employed, but also to
Others engaged in furnishing raw ma
trrial. The total capital required for
700 beet-sugar factories would GER
tainly not be less than S35O,OOO, 900,
portion of which would be annually
in circulation aud expended. For
example, $lO5,O0O,OOO for beets;
working expenses, including fuel,
SOL 100000; total of $lO6, 100000.
1t would be impossible at present
writing to enter into details, or even
estimate labor, etc., required to
mine and carry to destination
100000 tons of coal, annually
needed at such factories. Besides
coal, iron, copper, bricks, betting,
etc, required for the first building OF
the plant, 700 factories would need
an army of bricklayers, carpenters,
mechanics, gas and steam filters, etc.
We cannot, for the same reasons,
enter into the question of the refining
OF sugar and the labor connected
with it, nor the question of fattenlng
cattle, value of refuse pulp, cheap
ness Of resulting butter and milk, nor
of the labor and fuel used in these
very important auxiliary branches of
the beet-sugar industry. Farmers in
the Northern aud Western States are
at last realizing that there is none,
in beet cultivation. When we cons
trast the $3.50 gross receipts from an
acre of corn with $40 to $50 from
same area in heets, there can be no
wonder that the prejudice against
the spt cial crop is fast disappearing.
Capitalists of Nebraska and Kan
sas are tempted to invest their money,
in order to avail themselves of the
State bounties of one to two cents
granted; this, with Government
bounty, brings the bonus up to three
to four cents per pound-for every
pound of sugar made that polarizcs
80 to 90. The rapid progress in beet
sugar making in the United States
becomes more evident from year to
year; for example, in 1887, the total
beet sugar made was about 200 tons :;
in 1888, it rose to 1900 tons; 1889,
to 5000 tons; and it is believed that
the total for campaign lS9O-91 will
reach $4,000 tons, or 24,OOO,OOO
pounds. These sugars have been pro.
duced for 81 to 5 cents a pound, and
ere many years the cost OF production
will certainly be as low as in Germany
and France, where beet sugar is made
at l.5 cents per pound.

RATE OF INTEREST on The BRIDGE LOAN
70 BH INCREASED.
Tbs Finances Committee Holds Meeting, and
Orders q New Ordinance Sent to Council
This Evening, and Thence to
the PsOpls.

1t looks as though the rate OF interest
on the stone bridge bonds would have TO
be advanced to six per cent.
The attempt to float city bonds at four
and half per cent. has failed.
The Council Committee on Finance
met last evening, and as the first busi-
ness called for the report of the sub
committee to negotiate the AZ per cent.
bonds. Mr.. Maxwell said he could do
nothing at Al per cent. Mr.. Pollock
said he had written three letters, one to
New York, which had not been answer
ed, and two to Cleveland. W. j. Hays,
of Cleveland, wrote they could not make
Did at AZ per cent. II the rate was
made 5 per cent. they would be glad
to make a bid. Lamprecht Bros, OF
Cleveland, wrote asking that a blank
enclosed be filed out, when they would
consider the matter. City Clerk Thoner
said he had answered about fifty such
blanks, since the Issue Of bonds were
authorized. Mr.. Farrell said Mr..
Emsheimer had written to the Scottish
Union and National insurance Com
pany, and they replied they could not
make use of the bonds. Mr.. Emsheimer
also has two other letters out.
Mr.. Maxwell said il the rate was 5
per cent. exempt from city taxation, he
thought two parties In this city would
be willing to take them all, as that
would be equal to $50 per cent.
Mr.. Kenney said the estimate OF the
contractors, due tonight, would not be
as big as it was heretofore imagined
that it would not reach $4,000 Mr..
Hoge was sent for, and responding, said
the estimate would be about $4,000.
Forty cars Of stone and the arch sheet
ing were ready for delivery.and the south
abutment was two-thirds completed.
Fifty stone had been laid Monday, and
as many more would probably go down
to-day. Mr.. Hoge said the town OF SUI
perior, Wis, of &c, ZOO, and with debt
of 81, 200, 900, had Just tloated AZ per
cent. bonds.
Mr.. Pollock was in favor of submit
ting new ordinance, at per cent, to
the people, but Mr.. Kinney said he was
opposed to that, until another effort
had been made to sell.
There was a general discussion on the
situation, during which Mr.. Pollock
said he would say that henceforth and
forever, he would be opposed to the city
borrowing any money for any purpose.
He would vote and work against rails
ing any more money in that way.
1t was agreed that Council could order
the estimate paid, and an order be
issued to the Commissioners Of the loan,
who could pay out what money they
had on account.
Finally, Mr.. Maxwell said the only
thing the city could do was to increase
the interest. Mr.. Kenney said he would be
willing to have the Solicitor draw up an
ordinance and let the committee meet
again this evening and send it to Coun-
ell. He did this reluctantly, but as the
only way out of it, he would make as
motion that the rate of interest be six
per cent. he wanted to keep work on
the bridge going at all hazards.
Mr.. Maxwell seconded the motion,
and it was adopted, Mr.. Farrell voting
70.
The committee then adjourned.
