A RACY RECOMMENDATION
In the matter of the suggestion from
Street Superintendent Drain rerSNve to
the paving of First street between Hill
and Broadway. we would recommend
that the said street be paved. with as
phalt as per specifications on file in the
city engineers office in order that the
present generation of the honorable
street superinten endent may derive the
advantage of rolling smoothly and
n,oiselessly into the city Jail; whereas
they are at present numerically jolted
ir1to the gates ajar by the city's spring
less patrol wagon.
This recommendation was pemed
as a reply to the communication filed
with the council by the street Superin-
tendant and by that body referred to the
board of public works. In his commune
cation Col. Dram recommended the paw
ing of the block in front of the city jail
because the resurfacing of Sixth street

ing that as the work would have to be
done eventually he would like to see the

Average Average

The factory did not run on the 23d, oath
and 25th.
The figures are taken from very re-
liable sources. Such an attractive in
vestment cannot fail to attract other
capital until the thousands of acres
of equally good land as Los Alamtos
are growing sugar beets for factories
with sufficient capacity to buy all the
farmers produce. On the line of the
Terminal railway south of Clearwater
Lies magnificent body Of very fine beet
land and the Terminal railway affords
all the needed transportation facilities.
Los Alamitos pays the farmer 1925 for
beets containing II per cent sugar and
25 cents additional for each / per cent
over IL. Consequently is per cent beets
are worth to the farmer $475 per ton.
Abroad, where labor is cheap, the cost
of operation, that is the cost of extract
ing the sugar from the beet, is less than
81 per ton of beets. Here it costs from
$2.10 to 81. so per ton Take the maxi
mum and we have the following results:
Cost.
One ton of beets, Is per cent t........S475 as
Cost of extraction. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS 25O
Iotal .........'.............. ST 20
The rule generally in modern factories
is to estimate the actual extraction as,
IS per cent of the total saccharine; con-
sequently an Is per cent beet would
yield 13.40 per cent in dry granulated
sugar. The price in the market today is
(as we are informed) $5.25. Assuming
that it is possible to extract rs per cent
of the saccharine, each ton Of IS per cent
beets will yield 26S pounds of dry granu-
lated sugar, worth 81 cents per pound by
carload:
Sugar in one ton of beets, 26S pounds;
worth Observation-Disclosures. $14 .07
Cost of beets and operation of extrac-
llOH Observation-Disclosures. I.25
FRONT Observation-Disclosures. 6.S2
How many thousand tons Los Alamitos
factory controls this year is not known,
but $4,000 tons is fair campaign for the
size of the plant. If the present price of
sugar holds during the season and the
factory slices $4,000 tons of beets, as rich
as those reported in the first seventeen
days of operation the profits will reacl
the enormous sum of $341, 900.
/ But more startling still is the appica
ton of the same figures to the grea
Chino and Claus Sprecklesl plants, re
| spectively. Chino authorities state tha
| they have 10000 tons of beets in sight
They operate in connection with the
| regular sugar factory a "Steffens" pro-
cess, by which they claim they extract
2 per cent more sugar than by the regu-
lar diffusion method. So it is quite safe
| to figure the results of both the factories
named by the rule used in estima ting Los
Alamitos profits:
Chino, 10000 tons of beets; profits,
S6.S2 per ton. n......................... $3.50 900
Spreckels, Watsonvile, $50 900 tons
of beets; profits s6.s2 per ton..... !, ,023, ,00O
Klondyke isn't in it. No legitimate in
dustry in the United States is in 1t com
pared to such figures. There is need and
| room for five more factories in Southern
California.
| Six hundred thousand dollars will be
paid to farmers in Southern California
this year for sugar beets.
