This Is most extraordinary rec
ord and shows what our so called arid

in sugar beet and beet sugar produc.
tion. II the Investigation in Nevuda
during the last three years had shown
that some Of the beets could be de.
pended upon to reach the &c high an
alysis they would have been most
satisfactory, but the whole average
for each year has been high as stat
ed. and i'll many instances the percent.
age of sucrose i'll the beet juice was
above 20, and i'll several instances
above 2l.
at scarcely requires much gift OF
prophecy to forctell the early and i'm.
mensc development Of the beet in.
dustry in Colorado. Idaho, Utah, Ne.
vada, Wyoming, Montana and Cali.
fornia. Thes Sc states seemingly have
the climate, the soil and the water to
produce beets far superior in quality
to those OF Central Europe"
The above is very encouraging to
those connected with tho work in this
State. and it seems that it ought to
be an incentive to our people to foster
this industry and make il one of the
leading factors in building up the in
