It has been alleged by some that the
main reason that sugar companies were
organized and factories established in
Idaho was because the state IS paying
a bounty on sugar manufacturing. This
may have stimulated the enterprise,
but it must be remembered the factory
now operating was commenced, and
nearly all the contracts for the raising
Of beets entered into with the farmers,
before the last state legislature passed
the sugar bounty law. This significant
fact shows that the real incentive TO
the establishment Of this industry here
was the favorable conditions OF this
valley with reference to the soil, cli-
