BEET SUGAR INDUSTRY.

The beet sugar factory which has been
IN course OF erection for the past six
months by the American Beet Sugar
company lthe Oxnard'z), at Rocky
FORD, Colo, is rapidly nearing COM
pieIion. IL will be, when ready for op-
Grafton, the most complete beet sugar
Factory in the world, every feature Of
its equipment being of the most ad-
vanced and scientific tyne. me beet
crop which Is now maturing will be the
largest tributary to any Of their five
factories. The yield per acre and rich
ness OF the beets not only indicate a
remarkable adaptability of the soil and
climate or the Arkansas valley to beet
culture but ensures a handsome re-
turn TO the farmer on every acre planted
to this valuable product The percent
age Of failures this, the first year is
phenomenaliy low, lower than has ever
been recorded In every other section
where beet culture has been introduced
there has been a small loss to the
farmer the first season. or he has bare
~ come out even.
The Introduction Of beet culture and
the establishment of this, one Of the
try, in this section, is due to the efforts
of the Industrial department of the
Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe railway
system. the main line Of which runs
through the center of this remarkable
valley.
For this industry 100 specially built
cars were turned out of the Santa F'e
shops here not long ago They are made
with drop doors so that the beets may
be transported from field to factory
and unloaded very quickly by gravity.
