INTEREST FARMERS
IN BEET GROWING
VISIT OF SUGAR COMPANY MEN
MAY START NEW INDUSTRY
HERE.

( The representative of the Anal
gamated Sugar company, Job Pingree
Ogden, field superintendent; F. G
Taylor, manager of the La Grande
factory and f. S. Bramwell of La
erande, are much e couraged at the
prospects resulting from the meet.
lngs held in the valley this week,
especially those at Enterprise and
Lostine.
Unfortunately the hour was not ad-
vertised for the Wallowa meeting
and many of the farmers had gone
home, but arrangeme ments were made
for another meeting there to be
held soon.
AT Enterprise, such landowners as
Hon. j. H. Dobbin, R. F. Stubblefield,
R. d. Sanford, Carl V5hitmore, Wm.
Maxim and others manifested great
interest in the subject, and consider
able land was offered for rent, and
some acreage pledged.
At Lostine there was a good at
tendance and the farmers were inter
ested. The Joseph meeting was held
Monday and Mr.. Pingree explained
the proposition to the assembled
farmers.
In all the meetings, the growing of
beets was the principal topic, the
kind of soil best adapted, climate,
water etc. The visiting gentlemen
explained the unsatisfactory expert
ence of farmers in certain parts of
the Grande Ronde, where lack of
water and use of soil that had lost
its fertility resulted in small re-
turns.
1t was stated that the Wallowa val
ley is most promising field for the
sugar beet industry. Soil, climate
and abundance of water all favor,
and with proper cultivation 20 tons
to the acre would not be an uncom-
mon crop.
The company will pay $3.50 a
ton for beets delivered on board cars,
the same price paid in Union county
1t will also undertake to furnish all
the hand labor necessary in car
ing for the crop, leaving only such
work as can be done with team
for the farmer.
