TO BEGIN MAKING CHiCORY
schuyier's Factory VIII Pay $40 Per Ton
for Chicory Roots.

After being idle for three years, the
Nebraska chicory factory at Schuyler
will resume operations. The board Of
directors has decided to offer to con-
tract with the farmers for chicory roots
at $40 per ton. Formerly $3.50 per ton
was paid and many farmers tried to
raise them. but often with poor sue
cess, mainly because of unpropitious
seasons. aLtely there have beer nu-
merOus calls upon the company for
chickory products at prices that would
have made good money. Prices were
formerly so low that the business did
not prosper and was finally sold under
execution and bought in by seven di-
seasons. Lately there have beer nu-
paper. at a cost of $3.50. The plant
cost S12. 600.
This year there is a good prospect
that the factory will be abe to run at
a profit. as the farmers are taking con-
siderable interest in the offer of the
Lodrd of directors, believing that they
can VIII afford to raise the plants at
SO per ton.
