High Quality Sugar .Beets
Can Be Raised In Northern Wis.,
consin. Proved By
University.

The successful growing of sugar
oeet> of an unusually fine quality on
the University of Wisconsin agri-
cultural experiment sub station
farm at Iron River. Wis, seems to
be the solution IF the problem of
finding profitable crop suitable to
the climate and soil of northern Wis
consin lands formerly covered with
timber.
The analysis of beets grown on
the Iron River experiment farm
shows a higher percentage of both
sugar content arr purity than beets
have yielded in any other portion of
the state. The sugar content OF
these northern Wisconsin beets was
1919 per cent: as compared with 17.7
per cent, the average for Wisconsin.
The purity percentage was also ex-
ceedlngly high in the Iron River
beets, being 1913 against 1877 per
cent, the average of the beets pro-
duced in all parts of the state.
Both the sugar content and the
purity percentage were higher for
these beets of northern Wisconsin
than for those grown under the
most favorable conditions at the
Madison experiment station farm,
The results indicate that, with prop
err agricultural methods, sugar beets
can be made to weld excellent re-
turns from land which has been idle
and unprofita BILE since the timber on
it was cut.
On the Iron River farm the beets
were planted 30 inches apart, which
is much wider distance than on the
Madison farm, and the yield was nine
tons per acre. If closely planted
they probably would have equalled or
even exceeded the 16 or Is tons per
acre yielded on the Madison station
farm. Next year the beets will be
grown with view to getting larger
tonnage. The aim this year was
merely to see if beets could be raised
at all in that climate, and no special
scientific methods were used.
One of the interesting features of
the experiment as it will be contin-
ued next season is the tests to be
made of various fertilizers and of
muck and peat in enriching the red
sand soil which is typical of the Iron
River district. A sparing use of
the common black muck and peat
found in swampy places, it is thought
will be found Of much benefit to the
crops. as it largely increases the
capacity of the ground for retaining
moisture.
