! The beet sugar factory project is CO.
ing forward NICELY and there are many
reasons for believing it will materiaiize.
Frank Do Coninck, now in San Fran
cisco, the representative of q large
French syndicate which is interested in
the manufacture OF beet sugar machin-
cry and the handling OF refined sugar,
has been induced to take hold of the
enterprise at Aberdeen and has received
assurances FROM his people that they
stand ready to construct the plant when
a bonus of 5000 acres of beets in this
vicinity is guaranteed. Mr. Narregang.
of Aberdeen, Mr.. De Coninck and
others believe these conditions can be
met, and that the immense plant, which
will be Of great benefit to the farmers
as we'll as others OF this section, will
some day, 'ere long, be constructed and
operated in Aberdeen. The French
syndicate has sent an engineer to this
country, and it is promised that he will
visit Aberdeen. Mr.. Narregang has
distributed some 200 packages of beet
seed among the farmers, and the agri-
cultural college at Brookings has put
out 2 600. If the reports Of the engineer
are favorable, 1t is thought work on the
factory will be commenced the coming
winter. That the reports of the farm
ers Will be so, no one doubts. for re-
peated experiments and analyses at the
college at Brookings has pretty we'll
established the fact that the sugar beet
can be cultivated in South Dakota with
the very best results. The cultivation
Of over 1000 acres has already been
promised, and MIR. Narregang says that
50 or more contracts are now in the
hands Of agents who are securing the
signatures of farmers, and he doubts
Ijnot that over one-han OF the 5000 are
already provided for.
