AT the annual meeting Of the
stockholders of the National Sugar
Manufacturing Company. held in
Sugar City last week. the directors
were authorized to increase the
daily capacity of the plant from 800
tons to 1000 tons. Although these
improvements can not be made
ready for the present campaign, it
is the intention to commence work
on them at the earliest possible date.
The company handled fifty thousand
tons Of beets at the Sugar City fac
tory last year. but the indications
are that it will handle this year the
largest beet crop in its history. Five
years ago the company undertook a
big proposition when they built a
sugar factory on the plains Of Colo
RADIO. miles from a human habita-
ton. but they made such a success
of the experiment that the stock
holders are now willing to double
their investment.
