What Is the Cause of Short Beet Crop?

that had anything to do with the
shortage of the crop, as the beet
growers do as a rule. Ninety
five percent of them do try their
best to raise big crop, notwith-
standing the high-price of labor.
There was plenty of help to take
care of the growing crop and no
one stinted in that respect"

years seed side by side with this
years and cannot determine any
different results. Others have
done the same and find one seed
does better than the other. We
have all had more or less trouble
with leaf spot, but 1 am of the
opinion that this is caused more
by the climatic conditions than
anything else"
c. H. Powell, who has raised
beets for twelve years, mostly in
Nebraska, where irrigation is not
practiced, said:
II planted three kinds of seed
this year. one of last years strain
from Nebraska and one each of
last wears and this years issued
by the Holly Sugar company,
and l find that the beet seed is
sued by the local company this
year gave better results than
either of the others. I attribute
the conditions to the shortness
of the season, the over-anxiety of
the company to get an early
start, as their acreage was so un-
usually large, making it neces-
sary to quit irrigating August 1,
instead of continuing the moist
ure until the beets were natural
ly ready to mature of their own
volition. In my experience l
find that beets must grow about
100 days in order to produce re-
suits satisfactory alike to the SUI
gar company and the farmer. and
this could not be this year, as
the late spring made growth i'm
possible until nearly July I. l
understand the Holly factory is
having considerable trouble with
the beets that lie for a couple
davs in the open air. These are
of rubbery condition and it is
next to impossible to slice them,
then the syrup cannot be extract
ed, nor will the sugar grain as it
should,
"1n my experience in both the
field and factory (being thoroly
conversant with the matter as
we'll as the former) l am led to
believe that beets planted in
February and March and then
encountering the cold. wet
weather such as we had last
spring would not produce any
satisfactory crop, no matter what
the seed sowed might have been.
think, too. that that is the cause
IF the disease known as leaf

sun crossed the line at the vernal
equinox and then encounter such

that this year the farmers plant

next three months"
H. c, Mccrecry, president of
the Holly Commercial club,
which is investigating the dwarf
seed" matter with the farmers,
in order to promote the interests
Of the valley in general, said;
There has been so much
alarming talk by some of the
growers OF beets in this section
that the Holly Commercial club
has decided to meet the farmers
and has therefore appointed a
committee of six for this pur-
pose. These men, some of the
most prominent in the city, have
investigated the conditions and
find that the sugar company is
just as much disappointed over
the outcome as are the farmers,
for it is not making money out
Of this grade Of heets. Instead
of the percentage of sugar rum
ming high, as some farmers as
sert, 1t is averaging very low for
marketable beets. with purity

]. A. Pierce, one of the early
settlers in the lower Arkansas
valley, said:
81 do not believe there is any
thing in the cry of dwarf seed
that seems rampant now. Any
one who has watched the beets
grow this season and seen them
develop to a certain stage, then
partially die down, is readily
convinced that it is due solely to
climatic conditions that have
never heretofore been encounter
ed. They did not seem to be af-
fected at any one certain time,
but seemed to succumb to what
ever disease has caused this
dwarf condition at about the
same stage of their growth. At
this time the beets are taking on
new growth, which of course,
has tendency to reduce the SUI
gar content therein, and they
have grown more within the past
month than during the entire
summer"
August F. Buck. another pio-
neer here, residing six miles
north of Granada, said:
Early in the summer there
was much talk regarding the fur
nishing of dwarf beet seed to the
growers by the sugar company
in lieu Of that heretofore sup
piled. I have a neighbor who
has some Of the last years seed
which was left over and he plant
ed this aide by aide with some of
this years and the results OBJ
tained show conclusively that
dwarf seed was furnished. The
sugar people have been working
for a sweet beet and the ideal is
more nearly approached in the
dwarf variety.
Il attribute the poor quality of
this years crop Of sugar heets

totally exposed to the extreme

baking the ground SO that the

The Holly chieftain., 1907-11-01

A. L. Fryberger, president of
the East Prowers Beetgrowers
association, said:
At your request | will give
you few Of my ideas as to the
cause of the short beet crop and
its low percent in sugar. There
are several causes. First, the
cold backward spring and the
lack of rain. The cold weather
retarded the growth of the early
plant at least three or four weeks
and injured the plant. Thru the
lack of rain we had no equaliza-
ton of moisture. When we wat
cred thoroly the ground would
get very dry and crack open be-
fore watering again, hence the
beet would stop growing. The
constant checking and starting
to grow again. in connection with
the so-called leaf spot, is what
has lowered the sugar percent
age. as we'll as the tonnage. The
so-called leaf spot seems quite
a puzzle. 1t is caused by the ex-
treme hot weather after irriga-
ton. 1t seems to affect the early
beets the most. We have been
planting little too early. From
April IS to May 20 is good time
for planting,
Gas to the seed, ! would say
this; We farmers thought some-
thing was wrong, as there were
so many things we could not un-
derstand about the crop. Why
it should promise so much and
yield so little was beyond our
comprehension. Some thought
the company. had changed the
seed to dwarf and in short
time everyone was of the same
opinion. | wish to say that /
have investigated pretty thorely
=and am ceHvineed that evE seed
was the same as formerly plant-
ed; My advice would be to try
growing beets another year"
