inadequate railway facilities at Som
ers The railway company did much
to improve the conditions at Somers
last fall without application to the
railway commission. The tracks were
extended so there is now room to load
about forty cars at time. The road
way was improved as far as it was
possible under the prevailing weather
conditions by applyir nearly forty
car loads of gravel. The farmers did
not lose anything by shortage of cars
nor want Of track room. The loss fell

having capacity to handle the beets as,

railway company. This year under
their contract the growers will not be
allowed to deliver beets faster than
the factories can handle them.
