Rocky Ford enterprise., 1911-03-03

The question is often asked. "How
is the beet acreage coming?" The
answer is given below after taking
the trouble to inquire of the factory
officials, and from progress made it
appears that this year is opening in-
to one of prosperity in the entire
length Of the valley.
Alhiie it is still early to tell any
thing definite as to the total acreage
of the Rocky Ford factory district,
the returns to date, increases over
last years averages, new growers,
ETC.. give reason for expecting at the
least the twenty per cent increase
over last year. and later develop
ments. such as increased water pos
sibilities give reason for even better
increases.
The Las Animas factory district Of
the American Beet Sugar company
shows an increase already Of over
100 per cent; twice the acreage last
year, and signing is still going mcr-
rily on. Lamar also shows a cor
responding increase. In both these
communities everyone is interested vi
tally in the beet acreage. owing to the
fact that the communities did not
show the prosperity that has marked
the years of higher production.
The contract this year is on that
suits the farmers. and the feeling ex-
isting between the growers and the
factory is good. Manager Noble,
Rocky Ford enterprise., 1911-03-03
HOW THE BEET ACREAGE IS COMING
Will Be at Least 20 Per Cent Increase
Over Last Year
AN INTERESTING COMPARISON
Returns from Sugar Beets Ten Years Ago Compared
With the Present Time

while new in his position. has already
won the confidence of the residents
of this section, and as one farmer ex-
pressed it. "Hc is a mixer. and seems
interested in us as well as in the conf
pany." All of which is true, it would
appear.
Just what the total acreage will be.
or the length Of campaign is some
thino that is not known at the pres
ent time. The running of the Las
Animas and Lamar factories is of vi
tai importance to the residents in
those districts, and everyone is work
ing to run them. but it is still too
early to make any plans on whether
or not they will run.
Following is list of figures clip
ped from the Irrigation Era, publish
ed ten years ago last January show
ing returns from sugar bcets in this
section At that time. and also show
ing the figures of the present contract
figures on the sugar content of the
beets referred to. The increase runs
we'll along to s. ton between bcets
then and this contract, although the
increase granted this year. due to
markets. etc. which made it possible.
is by far the largest given. From the
figures ii will be plain why beet cul-
ture is again interesting the bulk OF
the farmers. especially with alfalfa
selling at low figures. as II is at the
present time.
