| the crops gathered in California
have netted returns nearly as large
as for any previous corresponding
period, according to the report of r.

years output by seven refineries in
the south was 1,724.736 bags. or two

estimated that total of 100000 tons
of heets will be cut in the south; that
this will produce 2,115,000 100 pound
bags. valued at $4.620.000. The entire
state crop is valued approximately at
$7,0o0,000
