Sugar Reets in Missouri.

Columbia, Mo, Dec 29.-Sinee
1880 the Missouri Experiment Sta
ton here has been making expert
ments with sugar bets sent from
ell counties OF the state with q view
to ascertain the per cent of sugar
contained in the beets. To-day the
authorities gave out the result of
their experiments of the last seven
years. The results demonstrate that
it will not be profitable for the
Missouri farmer to raise the bets
for sugar purposes, if he intends to
erect. factories to develop the sugar
The per cent of sugar in the beets
is not high enough to justify the
risk OF loss to the farmer. Many Of
the beets anals zed here showed q
high per cent, but as whole the To
suits were rather Disappointing for
the prospects Of the beet industry.
The station intends, however, to
continue the experiments next year
on larger scale. Beets sent from
the northeastern counties of the
state show the highest Per cent Of
sugar. The counties of Lewis,
Scott, Schuyler, Sullivan and Clark
sent the best beets. The highest
average where three or more SAM
Piles were received belongs to Schuy-
Ter with an average of Is 8 per cent
of sugar Sullivan county leads
among those sending in but two
samples, with tn average OF 16 1.
For the sugsr beet to be profitable
it must contain II per cent Of sugar.
The average Missouri beet does not
contain that amount
