HISTORY OF THE
BEAR RIVER CANAL.

Dooly OF salt Lake purchased Garland's
interest and during the ownership OF
Evans and Dooly they improved the
canal system at q cost OF $4,000,
The Utah Sugar compan yin 1901 pur-
chased the interests Of Evans and Dooly
and also bought some 10000 acres of
land In the valley since the purchase
by the Utah Sugar company the whole
country has developed more than
during the whole time previous.
The Garland sugar factory has
been built, a ready market found
for beets and lands that were sold from
1893 10 1897 for $50 to $40 an acre, are
now worth from SIS to 1925 an acre,
caused through the beet sugar industry
In this valley.
MADE GOOD THE WATER RIGHTS
Ana one magnanimous act Of the
Utah Sugar company was the compro-
mise made with the receiver Of the
company in making good all the water
rights that had ever been issued to the
farmers without any expense to them.
Inc sugar company Is now furnishing
water 70 the farmers on the east side
Of the Bear river through the bitches
of the Hammond Canal company This
company buys the surplus waters and
sells to the farmers above Brigham
CITY, Lands which have never before
mad water brought upon them, have
Deen irrigated during the past summer.
and the Sugar company has received
many good beets from this section.
PURCHASED BY SUGAR COMPANY.
The deal through which the Utah
Sugar company came into possession OF
the Bear river canal system ana the
10000 acres Of land that went with II.
was consummated on May 3. 1901
by this purchase the company came
INTO possession OF property that had
originally cost S3,000,0O0. Almost i'm.
mediately thereafter, the directors OF
the sugar company authorized its
agents to contract with the farmers
who resided I'm the valley, and whose
lands we're under the bitches OF the
canal, for a crop Of beets
THE FIRST BEET CROP.
During the year 300 acree were plant
cd and successfully cultivated under the
direction OF the company's resident az
rlcuiturist In season, the crop was
harvested and shipped 70 the Leh fac
tory to be reduced into sugar. Analys-
Is showed the beets 10 be OF a superior
grade; and, in the following year, 1902,
contracts were entered into with the
farmers for the crop from 500 acres,
while the company, on It's own account,
cultivated and harvested 1000 acres.
The success achieved being equally as
pronounced as II was during the pre-
vlous season; which proved to the ON
clals OF the sugar company that the
Bear elVrr region Wag I'm every way
adapted TO sugar beet culture.
CONDITIONS WERE PERFECT
The climate could not be more per-
feet and there were no elements Lack
ing In the soil for the proper propa-
CATION OF the beet plant. I'm many re-
speCts the country seemed TO have It's

except the drawing Of the cash due
them which comes direct from the pay
master OF the sugar company after the
crop is delivered
COMPANY SUPPLIES SEED.
The Sugar company supplies all the
seed for planting I'm the spring, maxi
ing charge Of $2,t5 per acre. which
Is deducted from the returns from the
sale OF the first lot Of beets. with the
company supplying the seed n uniform
variety from the best selected grades
Is maintained, thus working 10 the
mutual advantage Of both the company
ana the grower.
TT PAYS TO RAISE BETS.
That the raising Of sugar beets is a
profitable business under ordinary
circumstances, is readily evidenced by
the record made In the Bear River
country during last year. While the
expense Of producing n crop OF beets
is great deal there is nevertheless "A
good profit I'm it.
Resident Ayicuturist William d,
Lewis, VINO has been n resident of Gar
land almost from its very beginning,
told the writer not long ago, that tho
cost Of producing an acre OF boets can
not bee undertaken for less than about
$40 and oftentimes IL costs more But
that figure, he states. can bee called
fairly good average Of the expense.
PROFITS or LAST YEAR.
In 1904, Mr., Lewis declared, the beets
roised I'm the Bear River region brought
an average net profit OF $40 per acre
TO growers Figured on that basis,
.4IU. .I.. ..I

off OF So acre patch or $4,000: this az
ter he had deducted every expense con-
nected with the raising OF the crop ana
even to the payment OF the taxes on his
land. Previous to the building OF the
Garland sugar factory Mr.. Holmgreon
followed the pursuit OF stock raising,
but after this experience with beet cul-
ture he was not long I'm making up his
mind that Is sometimes pays TO inject
the policy Of expansion into ones daily
life. Without first making an inyesti-
cation OF the subject Mr. Holmgreen
took II for granted that his time and
energy could be applied more profit
ably by continuing the vocation OF
stock raising. But he thinks different
ly now.
CAN ANYONE BEAT IT?
The Utah Sugar company through
Resident Manager Moslah Evans, Of
fered a substantial prize to anyone that
could come up TO MIR. Holmgreen's beet
record, but so far the challenge has
not been accepted, From off % acres
out of his So, the present holder OF the
record obtained an average of 80 tons
and ass pounds Of beets, his gross re-
ceipts from the full acreage aggregated
the sum Of $500.
HAS MADE COUNTRY PROSPER.
Indeed, the introduction OF the sugar
beet industry into that region has
wrought many changes In the Bear
River valley and likewise, Will do so
for the Malad Previous to the bulld
ing OF the Garland factory, the region
was sparsely settled and those who had
gone there to ind homes experienced
no end Of discouraging hardships,
many Of them had a difficult time TO
make ends meet
As was the case In Utah county
when Lehi became sugar making
town. the people were given new hope;
new opportunities We're opened 10 them
by the Introduction of beet culture the
door Of prosperity was opened wide TO
them; now settlers came into the coun-
try and with their aid the desert be-
came rapidly reclaimed. The influx
still continues and ere long the Bear
River valley will become one of the
most densely populated, as well as one
OF the richest sections OF the state.
A trip through the country from
Garland north to Malad, confr0nts one
with a picture of prosperity; 1t is in
evidence everywhere, In the older de-
reloped beet zones, the proofs are
perhaps more perceptibe, for the in
habitants have later improvements and
they are now making them in a great
many places. Those who have tasted
the bitterness OF adversely, or, perhaps,
at some time have deprived themselves
Of tho necessaries OF life that they
might pull through 10 another harvest
are now reaping their reward and are
providing themselves, II they have not
already done 80, with new homes and
new environments. Indeed, the past

yelopment OF Cache valley was be-
gun, President Brigham Young COM
sidered the possibility Of bringing
out the great Bear river canal through
the Bear river canyon, but saw the Inn
possibility OF raising sufficient capital
to develop this stupendous work. and
abandoned It for the time being,
Later on Mr.. John w, Kerr, banker
OF Salt Lake, had preliminary surveys
made TO take the water from Bear river
near a point which Is known as the
natural dam about one mile from
where the present power plant OF the
Utah Sugar company Is now locate

was the financing Of II, he also aband-
oned the project az II was very din

John r. Boutwell,. Of New York, spent
some time In the valley, and filed on
the waters OF Bear river and Bear lake,
and was successful IN promoting the
project through the financial agents
Jarvis g. Conkln, then OF Kansas city,
who sold two million worth OF bonds
FOR the building and equipment OF the
canal and the ogden waterworks. The
corporation was known as the Bear
Lake q River Water Works a. Irriga-
ton company, with Jarvis & Conklin
ms trustees.
CRASH CAME ~ 1893,
IN 1893, when the terrible financial
avalanche swept over the world, Jarvis
a. Conklm failed for about 100000 900,
and the Bear River company being one
Of their projects, went to the wall; they
were not able 10 pay mp one OF their
contractors, who was Mr. William Car
land by $4,000 and he filed q mechan-
los lien for this amount, which kept the
company IN litigation for about five
years, and the supreme court OF the
United States decided I'm favor OF Gar
land during the interval ~ this ltga-
ton, on Jan. 4, 1898, Mr. w. II, Rowe,
who was then assistant superintendent
Of the z. c. NJ. l., was appointed re-
relver of the Bear Lake d River Water
Works g. Irrigation company. when Mr..
Rowe took possession OF It for the
bOndholders, the canal was In an UNI
finished condition and no took a trip

from the bondholders to finish the ca
nal, I'm September, 1894. the Bear Lake
business was foreclosed and was
bought IN by representatives OF the
bondholders, and a new company was
organized IN the name OF the Bear
River Irrigation X Ogden water Works
company. Through great efforts, the
land under the Rear river canal was
developed and many farms sold; the
development OF the valley would have
been much more successful had not the
Garland litigation been pending for the
ave years past, MS all the water rights
we're being sold subject to the Garland
