lies along the northern boundary Of

was made the subject of paper by

PRICE OF SUGAR
is GOING HIGHER
YEARS CROP WILL BE TWO MIL
LION TONS UNDER THE
AVERAGE.
OUTLOOK IS VERY BAD
pRoUTHs IN GERMANY AND
FLOODS IN CUBA PLAY
HAVOC.

Western Newspaper Union News Service
Grand Junction, Colo.-According
to Fred G. Holmes, manager of the
Grand Junction Sugar Company. who
is in Denver arranging for cars for the
fall and winter campaign of his fac
tory, the price of this commodity has
not reached its climax.
In his opinion, the price of sugar is
to soar even higher than it is at pres
ent. and 1t is probable, he states. that
the price will remain high during the
winter and will not be materially af-
fected by the crop now maturing.
The outlook for next year also is
bad. from the viewpoint of the con-
sumner, as beet seed has doubled in
price in the last few weeks and the
prospects are that it will go still
higher. thus making it necessary for
the sugar companies and the farmers
to raise their prices on the sugar beet
crop for next year. according to Mr..
Holmes.
I'VE expect record crop of sugar
beets-on the Western Slope" said Mr..
Holmes. I'VE have contracted for the
entire crop, which probably will be
about 10000 tons. or nearly 10000
tons greater than ever before. From
this tonnage We expect to get approx
mately 100000 bags of sugar, each bag
containing 100 pounds, or total of
100000 pounds for the refined pro-
duct. $50
For this product the farmers of the
Western Slope will receive approx
mately 100000; the exact amount can
not be given as We pay on the sliding
scale, guaranteeing IS a ton regardless
Of the saccharine content of the beets
and paying more for each ton that
tests above certain per cent.
There are sixteen sugar factories
In Colorado and each of them will
have an unusually large crop to ham
ale. This will mean an exceptional
production and longer campaigns.
II cannot predict-in fact, will
not venture to do so-the total pro-
AUCTION OF sugar in this state this year,
but 1t Is safe to say it will exceed
that OF the last few years. However
large 1t may be. it will be but drop
IN the bucket when compared with
what Is needed for the worlds con-
sumption. 1t will have absolutely no
effect upon the price Of the commodi-
ty on the open market.
Back of the rise in the cost OF SUI
gar. both at wholesale and retail, is
the fact that this years world produc-
lion is approximately 100000 tons
Of sugar under the average. That Is
IN immense amount; 1t is almost be-
vond belief, and certainly beyond the
comprehension Of majority of the
people. There may be corner in
The market; probably there is, but the
shortage alone would cause material
Increase in prices.
Extremely hot weather and drouths
In the German districts, and floods in
the cane districts of Cuba, indicate
that the crop that natures soon will
be short many millions of tons.
1.-The shortage Of beets in the Ger
man districts can mean only that the
price will stay up almost beyond
reach, as the world looks to Europe
for its sugar supply. 1t also must
mean that there will be shortage in
seed, and the seed men are foreseeing
that shortage already. So much so.
In fact, that already the price has
been doubled"
