FIGURES ON the COST Of
PRODUCING SUGAR BEETS
Agriculturist PREM Gives Out Some In
teresting Information on the I'm
portant Subject.

p. J. PREM. agriculturist of the North
Yakima Beet Sugar company, in re-
Spouse to a request for information rel
ative to the cost of planting, tending and
marketing sugar beets, submits the fol-
lowing, which should be preserved by
all who contemplate growing of beets
for the factory which will be built here:
"What does it cost to raise an acre of
sugar bcets? This question comes up
so frequently, and is of sucl, Importance,
that ! feel called upon to answer it
promptly and as fully as possible. and
! trust that every farmer will be able
to figure ont after he reads this how
much money he must spend in order TO
raise and harvest one or more acres of
sugar beets
1.-The seed costs fifteen cents per
pound and from Is to 90 pounds are
necessary to the acre. The average
cost of seed per acre is 1866; this cost
to the farmer when the beets are de-
livcred in the fall If the company does
the planting also, the added cost for
this service is fifty cents per acre, which
will also be deducted in the fall The
total cost of seed and planting per acre
would then be $3.l5. This has proven
to be the expense of 25 per cent of the
beet growers in Colorado. because those
farmers were able to do the entire work
connected with the culture of sugar
bcets themselves. They do not under
take more than they can care for, and
l know many of them who cultivate
from 5 to 10 acres and some even more.
"A farmer with a 90 or 40-acre tract
who puts in five or more acres in bets

and it leaves him more time to spend in

that one person lin field which is
not too weedyl, can thin onethird of
an acre day and a boy of 10 or IA
years can do as much work as grown

this heavy yield Yas that the land has
been used continuously for beet growing

in this way good four horse team
should be able to haul five tons per trip,
and I think that anybody can figure
out the proper price per ton knowing
the number of trips that can be made
in a day; taking for example an aver
age of sixty cents per ton--on twenty
five ton crop the expense of hauling per
acre would be $l5-thus we have a
total expense up to this point Of $34.l5.
Il hope now that everybody under
stands what it will cost him to raise one
acre of this crop on his own place and
under his conditions. These figures are
only good in reference to an irrigated
country, as the work in the fields is less
and the returns 100 per cent greater
than where the farmer must depend up
on rainfall for sufficient moisture. The
reason that the work in beet fields is
less in an irrigated country are many:
"First-You can do the work at the
most practicable time, and you always
have the sun to kill the weeds after
they have been cut by cultivator or hoe.
You are not compelled to wait weeks
on account of heavy rains before you
can get into the fields to work, by which
time it may require twice the effort to

a foot high and have already injured
the young plants.
"Second-The farmer can always reg
ulate the moisture, and keep the beets
growing from early spring until late in
the fall without stop on account of
excessive rains or drought For these
reasons the yield per acre is consider
ably increased.
81 do not doubt that these figures will
do this work at less expense than
named above while others may find it
little greater. The most economical way
to raise large crop of beets is to take
clean and rich land. 1t cannot be too
rich. Even that which will grow 40
tons per acre is all the better. 1t has
been my observation that old alfalfa
land invariably gives heavy returns. If
you get SIS per ton for beets and the
yield runs from twenty to thirty tons
per acre, which is not unusual under a
good ditch and with careful attention,
you certainly will receive profit suf-
fcient to pay you for your trouble. l
have divided the sugar beet growers
practically into three classes: The
first who have not more acres than they
can take care of and the entire expense
out of whose pocket is $3.l5; the second
class, those who have to hire the thin
ming and topping done, who have to
spend about Sl3,65 per acre. and third
class who have to hire everything done
except cultivating and irrigating and
who must spend about $34.l5 per acre.
Following are some of the results
obtained by beetgrowers in the last sea
son in Colorado:
IF. S. Mccoy of Longmont raised on
o acres $l013.54 worth of sugar beets;
S. per ton, about ~ tons to the acre
y. +. Withrow of Loveand had re-
turn of $23744s, or $lls.47 per acre,
from 90 acres. The total expense for
the season in planting. maturing and
harvesting the crop was 1894.
"W. II, Smith of Holly. who reported
early in the harvest yield of 81 tons
per acre, found as the harvest pro-
crossed, several acres of his field which
yielded 81 tons to the acre, leaving him
a net profit of $3.50 per acre.
