The return of $112, 2,S42,536 to
those engaged in agricultural pur-
suits in the state will be equivalent
to a distribution of more than $135
to every person in the state. while
the average for the entire countr!
will be less than $50.
Crop conditions in the state this
year have been so much better than
they were in 1911, resulting in an
increase in both acreage cultivated
and yields, that ten crops, quanti-

The value of the 1912 corn crop

is more than double that of last

FACTORY
EXPECTS
BIG RUN
EATON SUGAR PLANT BEING
BROUGHT UP TO DATE FOR
FALL CROP-MANY IMPROVE
MENTS BEING MADE

Eaton, Aug. although the
10000 acres of beets planted in the
Eaton district will not yield over
10000 acres at the time of digging,
preparations for the fall run in the
Eaton factory have not slackened.
More repair and construction work
10 being done in the buildings this
summer than ever before.
Many devices are being installed
that will curb the waste that has
gone off in by-products. A failing
crusher is being installed to dimin-
ish the waste of sugar that was
carried away in the small ends.
This machine utilizes the smallest
parts Of the beets that are torn off
in the washer. Because there was a
shortage of water in the Eaton fac
tory last year. the flume water that
carries the beets into the washer
from the sheds, will be diverted
back and used over again. Small
sluice ways are being constructed
of cement to divert the water.
One important piece of machinery
is being set up that will conserve
much of the waste sugar that went
with the pulp. This is known as a
pulp extractor. The sugar that was
carried off in the pulp will be boiled
with the other syrup.
Thirty-five men are working in
the factory getting the machinery in
shape for the fall campaign. The
Des Moines Iron company is INSTALL
ing a sprinkler system and 165
foot water tower. A huge molasses
tank is being made to contain the
syrup that Is boiled at the end of
the fall run.
The damage that was done by the
recent hail storm is being repaired.
New windows are being placed in on
the west side of the main building
and the roof of the warehouse which
was damaged is being patched.
