SUGAR BEETS.
Better Returns Reported Than For
Some Years Past.

Better Returns Reported Than For
Some Years Past.
Where climate and soil are at all
suited to the growing of sugar beets
the returns have been entirely salts
factory and much better than We're
hoped for few years ago, is the re-
port. given after due investigation,
by Orange Judd Farmer.
Sugar beets are now grown almost
everywhere, Colorado leading because
Of favorable climate and soil condi-
tions. Michigan is at the forefront
and is making good in spite of the fact
that 1t does not have as much sunshine
as Colorado and California. The farm
ers however. throughout the state are
becoming more and more interested in
growing sugar beets and find that they
net all the way from $50 to $40 per
acre. The help problem. while still
serious, Is not as difficult as it was
during the early stage Of development
Then very few people knew how to
prepare the land and cultivate the
beet. Now this knowledge is quite
general
OF BENEFIT to the Growers.
Sugar beet factories employ expert
agrcultursts, who spend all their
time among the growers giving sug-
gestions and assisting in every way
possible. This work, though rather
expensive, has proved profitable and
paid the factory well. 1t has been Of
N inst - h.
who, as rule, accept the assistance
gratefully.
The past season seems to have been
favorable one with few exceptions.
In some localities there We're too much
rain and cool weather. As rule, how
ever, the states that produce the most
sugar beets were favored with sunny
days and normal amount Of mOis-
ture.
The Yield of Beets.
A number of interesting features
may be noted. In the first place, the
yield Of beets is increasing from year
to year, due to better methods Of cul-
tivation and the use of better seed,
The sugar content Is also on the up
grade. A few years ago 1t was with
the greatest difficulty that most grow
ers could produce beets averaging IL
per cent sugar. Now Is and IA Der
cent Is the rule, and 10, 10, II and
even IS per cent Is not unusual It ID
still little early to give an estimate
OF the amount Of beet sugar produced
this season. The run does not end I'm.
til well INFO winter. Some factories,
Of course, close down along the latter
part Of November, but many of them
run well into December, and In some
localities where mild temperature pre-
walls they continue operations until
January.
