IRRIGATION PRODUCES SWEETS.
Beet Sugar MakIax in the West I. I.

Beet Sugar Making In the West L. q
Very Interesting Process.
In some Of the Western States, espe-
cially Wisconsin, Nebraska, Colorado,
and the western part Of Kansas, the
growing of beets for sugar, has become
a recognized industry. Large factories
for the conversion Of the beet into
sugar have been erected, and here are
employed large numbers Of men during
the fall and winter months.
Colorado leads In the production of
beets. This can be accounted for by
the same reason that she is noted for
her cantaloupes; that is, irrigation and
the large numbers Of days of sun
shine. The sun shines on fully 300
days Of the year and the beet is stim-
ulated to wonderful growth.
In growing beets the ground is pre-
pared in much the same way as for
cantaloupes, thorough breaking and
pulverizing of the ground being neces-
sary for best results. After leveling
| the ground, which makes irrigation
easier, the beet drill is brought into
ordinary grain drill, with the excep-
ton that it only plants four rows 1S
inches apart at time, and has no at
tachments for drilling in fertilizer. On
the drill are two small shovels, placed
SO that they make two burrows be.
tween the two rows on each side
These burrows carry the irrigating
water, which soaks back and moistens
the seed.
When through with the seeding, the
water is turned into the burrows made
by the drill, between each two rows
The water is kept running until the
seed is thoroughly soaked, care being
taken that the water does not over
flow very much, as this causes the
ground to bake, and the sprouts cannot
force their way through the crust thus
formed. When plants have obtained
the height of one-half inch to an inch
