WASHINGTON PRODUCT BEST IN
Tue WORLD.
Result 81 Agricultural 0epsrsmeat
Experiments Given Ous-sss1S
the Ssssr Sect SEED Rslsed IN
the United States Grows IN
THIS State.

Washipgson. May 1.-The best sugar
beet seed in tho United States has been
producted in the state Of Washington,
and Secretary Of Agriculture Wilson
remarked in course Of . conversation
that this was . very significant fact
for the best sugar producing interests
In this country. Il may not DO geuer-
ally knewn that, although The best
sugar industry In the United States
has reached large proportions, nearly
all the seed for producing the beets
are imported from foreign countries.
Experiments in the production Of
sugar beet seed were carried On at
Fairfield, WASH, last year, and the
results have been most satisfactory.
In the state Of Washington last season
$4,000 pounus were produced, ont Of
q total of 100000 pounds for the whole
country. II has been found that. while
Washington has produced the largest
quantity, these seeds produce beets Of
greater saccharine strength, generally
speaking, than the seeds produced else
where in the United States or abroad.
It might seem that l62, 900 pounds Of
sugar beet seed would 20 q long way
toward supplying the demand Of the
United States, but such 10 not the case,
for 5000. 900 pounds are annually used
In this country, and the amount 10 in.
creasing. Secretary Wilson thinks the
United States will produce all of it,
sugar beet seed within q few years,
and the prospect 10 that Warrington
will continue TO DO the leading state in
this industry.
Some Of the seed raised in Washing
ton produced beets last year testing %
high a. "a per cent sugar. while the
average for all seed raised in this coun.
try was 1873 per cent. Yet tho aver
age for all beets grown in the United
States 10 only about II per cent. 20 II
may be inferred from this that the for.
eign seeds do not produce beets Of
nearly 20 large sacoharine strength.
