The Strang Beet Sugar company has es-

to give out contracts The price Of beot
seed Is fixed at Is cents a pound at Ames.
For beets with sugar content from Il to IA
per cent the price IS to be 81 per ton at tho
coeffcent of purity to be at least
as per cent. For beets with higher sugar
content an additional price OF rs cents per
ton for each one per cent above 1&4 Is
given. A lower price is paid for beets with
smaller sugar content and coef1lcient Of
purity. No beets are taken that are below
rs coeficient of purity.
The bsets are 10 be topped squarely across
below the lower leaf and delivered free from
dirt at the factory as they are wanted by
the company during the sugar season. These
prices are considered very liberal and the
company will undoubtedly get all the CON.
tracts it wants.
There Is some talk here among the busi-
ness mon OF a trolley line between Fremont
and Auaes or the new sugar factory. Be
sides carrying people to and from the beet
fields and factory it would do a good busl-
