BONUS FOR HIGH
PERCENTAGE BEETS
Sugar Company Offers Liberal
Inducenents to Farmers
Fer Raising Better
Quality Of Beets

Manager w. l.. Lawson of the local
sugar factory and head field superin-
tendent, w. F. Secor, were Denver
visitors the first of the week, along
with other managers and superinten-
dents from all portions of the state and
met with the board of directors of the
Great Western Sugar Company, and
yesterday announced for next season
an additional 12A cents per ton for
I 0eh half per cent in sugar contents for
beets that run over l5A per cent. This
means hundreds of dollars additional in
the pockets of the farmers who will
strive for quality as well as tonnage.
The payments for next seasons beets
will be practically altogether based on
the percentage of sugar and would give
the following scale of fiat rates and
percentages.
Beets running l2per cent and under
Is, s6.
Beets running Is and l5A per cent.
$5.25
Beets running l5a to 16 per cent,
$5.37a.
Beets running l6 to lsa per cent.
$3.50
This scale is in effect for all grades
as outlined above and the increase in
the same ratio applies to beets whose
contents is more than given in the scale
above. The company will pay l2A cents
for the half percentages and an addi-
tional whole percent will not be neces-
sary to get the benefit of the increase.
This is the second season that the
sliding scale has been in effect and it
has proven extremely satisfactory
