AS business Of an important ma

earnestly requested to be present.
H. E. ROE. Secretary
The announcement that the tang
led affairs of the sugar factory are
at last in a fair way to be straight
ened out and the way opened for the
resumption of operation of the big
concern, will be welcome news to
the people of this section, who have
never faltered in their faith in the
ultimate success of the venture
once the financial features of the
enterprise were adjusted. The cam
paigns that have been carried out
in the past have removed it from
the experimental stage and it has
been demonstrated that beets can
be raised here in sufficient quanti-
ties and of a quality that is not ex-
celled in any district in the country
The only drawback has been the un-
certainty existing in regard to the
money end Of the business. There
has always been a natural hesitancy
on the part of the local farmers to
enter heavily into the raising of
beets until they were assured that
the ability of the company to pro-
vide a cash market at harvest time
was placed beyond question. With
this doubt removed, there will be
no question that a large acreage
will be promptly forthcoming.
