special to the Denver Republican
from Greeley gives an idea of the
wealth produced in raising sugar
beets, as follows; To-day payment for
the November delivery OF beets was
made by the Greeley. Eaton and
Windsor sugar factories. The Gree
ley factory paid $4,000. Eaton s215,-
600 Windsor s179 0O0-totnI, $604 900.
The monthly payroll for workmen at
the three factories is $4,000 and the
expenses 100000, which added to the
foregoing. makes a total OF s739. 900
put into circulation by the three fac
tories in the past few days. The Sep
tember delivery of beets brought
siS5,000 and October $3t1.000 which.
with the monthly payroll and expens-
eg of the three factories. has made the
three districts richer by si,500.000 1t
Is quite probable that the December
delivery will equal that of November.
and 1t Will be February 1 before all
beets are delivered, which will pro-
long the sugar campaign into March.
All beets are dug in northern Colora-
dc and there is good prospect that
practically all will be used by tie
factories without loss to the farmers
from freezing or thawing."
