! One of the most attractive features
of the Grand Valley as fruit raising
proposition is the fact that while the
orchards are growing the owners can
keep up their living expenses by rails
ing vegetables and other products
between the tree rows; many are
planting out raspberries. straw ber-
ries and other small fruits which
come into bearing long before the
trees are large enough to shade the
tables are quite popular but the crop
for which there is a sure market ev-
cry year is that of sugar beets for
the local factory of the Western Su-
gar and Land Company.
The factory at Grand Junction is
the oldest In Colorado and more than
twelve years ago our citizens demon
strated the fact that there was a
splendid opening here for a factory;
they insisted that the beets could be
grown here with better results thar
anywhere else and they kept at work
until factory was finally establish
ed. Fer several years it was not \
success because the growers were not
educated in the cultivation of the
crop, but with each succeeding year
the crop has increased until this past
season there were over two thous-
and acres liz cultivation and the av-
erage yield per acre was a little over
thirteen tons for which was paid five
dollars per ton. One man in this
valley raised thirty tons per acre but
that is an unusual yield. The fact
ory this year will pay the growers in
chis county about a quarter of a mil
lion dollars for beets while many
other thousands of dollars are paid
out annually for help-in the oper-
alton of the factory. The run this year
has been the most successful in the
history of the plant. 1t began slic-
