The following extract was taken from d
letter written by Prof. j. II. Shepard of
l}rookings Agricultural College: 1--WE
have harvested our sugar beets. The re-
turns obtained are surprising. The bects
in this vicinity arc giving us over 10 per
cent. sugar with a purity co-eficient of
over ID per cent. We now have it in our
power 10 bring this sugar beet work from
II scientific standpoint TO a close. All that
we need is to show what tonnage and
what The cost of raising the same is for
this state. / am satisfied that The showing
will lie so COOL that investors will come
here rather than c~lscwhere."
