PRODUCTION OF THE
LUSCIOUS SUGAR BEET
Report Of the Agricultural Depart
ment Regarding the Beet sugar
Industry Sent to Congress BY
the President.

Washington.-P President Roosevelt
sent to congress on Friday a report
on the progress of the beet sugar IN
dustrv in 1905. prepared by Charles
F. SAVIOR of the agricultural depart
ment The report says success mas
attended the beet sugar industry in
Colorado since the beginning. Inc
season of 1905 was better than usual
Colorado holds unique position IN
the development of the beet sugar IN
dustrv. It entered the field at COM
paratiyely recent date, but already
twelve large plants have been In
stalled, with a daily capacity OF 9'2Oo
tons. Three other factories-Brush,
Fort Morgan and Swinch-are being
built. with a capacity of 2,4OO tons,
and three others are to be built during
the present year. The fifteen facto'
ries will aggregate daily 1880 tons
of beets and 1926 tons of sugar, repre-
senting a money equivalent of $12,-
100000 The beet sugar industry in
that state has stimulated all sorts OF
improvements.
The reports show that Utah was the
third state to enter upon sugar beet
production. The start was made at
Lehi in 1891, and the growth has been
healthful ever since The over-pro'
duction of beets soon stimulated the
erection of other factories. The beet
districts of Utah are said to be better
irrigated than in any other state. The
five factories of Utah have a combined
capacity of 1000 tons. Utahs beet
production has been much damaged
by the white fly pest to which ento-
mologists of the department of agri-
culture will Immediately turn their at
tention in the hope of eradicating the
insect.
Idaho is one of the newest and least
developed states in agriculture, but
the installation of sugar factories has
given remarkable impetus to agrl-
cultural development generally. Idaho
soil has rare qualities for sugar pro-
duction. Prior to this season Idaho
had three sugar factories of 300 tons
daily capacity. Two others are con-
tracted for, one at Nampa for 1906 and
one at Payette for 1907
Wyoming is now under investiga-
ton Reefs grown are of high mail
ity, and Utah and Colorado capital
has turned toward that state because
of cheap fuel and good water. The
report says it is likely that Wyoming,
like Idaho, will suddenly jump into
prominence among the sugar states of
the west.

Moscow.-The congress of mon

with the adoption of series of ex.

In favor of the abolition of the privi
leges granted to the Films and of

Guiding them from all rights, such as
the purchase or renting of lands or
education in the middle school or uni
versities. The proceedings closed
with speech by Professor Nicholsky,
a noted reactionary, in which, to the
accompaniment of cheers, he prophe-
sled a counter revolution to restore
the old regime, which would cost tho
lives of 100000 Jews and Constitu-
tional Democrats.
