Steamboat Rock.-The 800 acres Of
sugar beots planted IN the vicinity
OF Steamboat Rock will be worth
$4,000 to $4,000 at a conservative
estimate of ten tons to the acre. and
some farmers think the average will
be nearer twelve tons to the acre.

$50 or more received per acre they
pay SIC per acre for the hand labor
OF wedding and hoing, which is done
by Russians who make their homes
on the farms during the season. The
seed costs $3.50 per acre and the
commercial fertilizer $1.50 per acre.
The beet sugar company furnishes
free use of a seeder. The farmer
buys special beet plow and litter.
While 1t is thought by some that
beets are injurious to the land, H.
"A. Gellhorn made trip to Hampton
recently, to find out about the effect
Of the beets on the land for his own
good. His Investigation proved fav.
orable as he contracted for forty
acres for next season.
