meut

On Monday and Tuesday of this week
the officers of the Alma Sugar 90. had
under consideration the resolutions re-
Gently presented TO the directors Of the
Central Michigan Beet Growers Associ-
alton bv committee appointed by that
assc citation, ard on Tuesday morning
agreed TO the following terms, which
were endorsed by the board of directors
of the association, Messrs. II b Angel.
ID Chisholm and b NJ. Coffin;
list The Alma Sugar Co will pay
81 50 per ton for all beets testing II pei
cent sugar and 33l., cents per ton more
or less for all beets containing greater
ur less amount of sugar, in accordance
with Act No. IS of the laws of 1897.
2nd The Alma Sugar Co will un'
load, free of charge, all beets delivered
in carload lots in their sheds; and the
company also agrees 10 pay 30 cents pei
ton of the expense of freight OF said
carloads.
3rd. The per cent. of sugar in the
beets shall be determined upon the basis
Of 90 per cent Of the Juice test.
Ii would seem that now the farmers
have had their demands granted, they
should not be at all backward about
contracting 10 grow beets and the acre
age should be trebled over that of last
wear. The company has conceded every
thing that was reasonable and IL is 10 be
hoped that there will not be the dissatis
faction among the growers that there has
been. especially from causes over which
the company had no jurisdiction.
