Local Sugar People Investigating Con.
ditions in tie Big Horn Country.
Especial to the News. y

Garland, Wyo, Feb. 22.-Apostle
Abraham o, Woodruff OF the Nor
mon" Church, accompanied by George
Austin Of the Utah Sugar company,
has been here for the purpose Of se-
Letting the site for sugar factory
which will be built the coming sum
mer Beets are to be planted this
spring, and the plant viii be ready for
the crop, The factory will involve an
outlay OF 100000, and It will be the
first sugar factory In Wyoming.
Mr.. Cutler OF the Utah Sugar com.
pany was shown the above dispatch
this morning, and said II was only
partly correct. Mr. Austin had gone
to Wyoming at the request of himself
and others associated with local sugar
interests, In response to an invitation
from leading men IN the Big Horn
country. who thought conditions there
were favorable for beet sugar business.
Whether the country yet has the popu-
latlon, the soil and the water necessary
to make a success Of sugar factory,
was question which could only be de-
termlned after investigation, and Mr..
Austin had gone up to look the c0un-
try over. What his report would be,
no one could say until he returned. but
1t could be set down az certain that no
factory would be built this year. In
order TO construct factory during 1904
In Sugar City, Idaho, the Fremont
county Sugar company had to make its
contracts last fall, and even then, such
is the rush IN the iron and steel trade,
and such Is the congestion on the rail-
roads, the company Will be fortunate II
ats plant is ready as soon as the beet
crop commences TO be harvested.
