As a result it was decided to con.
struct 600 ton factory, just half the
capacity of the Billings plant, al
Lowell, Wyo. This institution will be
ready for operation October 20. Ii
will handle the beets from northern
Wyoming in the Big Horn Basin, for
merly shipped to Billings. It will be
one of the few factories of the kind in
which the fuel is gas. Natural Gas
plped from the world s large gas we'll
at Byron, will be used.
Development In Montana.
Having provided factory for sew
eral thousand acres in Wyoming
which had formerly been taken care
of at Billings, Mr.. Lawson and his as
socrates set to work to develop the in
dustry In Montana, and beet seed was
sent to every section of the state for
experimental purposes. In Western
and Northern Montana special agricul-
turists were assigned to assist the
farmers in securing the best results.
In the Great Falls district more than
1000 acres of beets were planted.
Tests have shown the experiments sue
cessful and the 1916 crop from these
experimental districts will be shipped
to the Billings factory for refining.
80 successful were the experiments
in western Montana that the company
decided to construct at Missoula a
factory of the same capacity as the
Billings institution, what is known as
a ZOO ton plant. A site for this has
already been procured, contracts for
acreage in 1917 are being signed and
it will be in operation next fall pre-
pared to handle the product from an
acreage OF many thousand.
I Other Plants to Be Erected.
On reliable authority it has been
learned the company is considering
still further extention of the beet
growing industry in Montana and the
probabilities are that within the i'm
mediate future factories will be erect
ed in central, Northern and Eastern
Montana. Experiments in beet grow
ing have been conducted in these dis
tricts this year. On recent trip over
the territory agriculturists are said to
have found most encouraging results.
Those, who are interested, have
hopes of developing a beet sugar in
lustry in the Treasure state that will
exceed in Importance the same indus
5ry in Colorado.

DDS and systems of rotation are taught
and the conservation of soil fertility
is emphasized. AS a result instead of
robbing the soil as So many crops do
sugar beet culture, with proper sys-
tenn of rotation, increases it's value.
The Importance of better livestock
is also emphasized. The feeding of
livestock is a very important part of
the beet growers business. He has
the beet tops to dispose of and they
are worth from So to 81 per acre and
then he is able to secure pulp from
the factory, which combined with the
molasses the company sells and with
alfalfa makes the very finest Of feed
both for growth and fattening.
At the Billings factory the pulp
and molasses are fed in large stock
yards adjoining the plant, but the
company has decided to equi p the new
Missoula factory with pulp press,
which will enable it to press the pulp
for shipment to farmers to be fed on
the farm. 1t is the intention later to
install such equipment at Billings and
In any other factories that may be
erected within the state.
History OF the Sugar Beet.
The sugar beet is Of humble origin.
1t might be said that it hasn't even
the advantage of gentle birth, though
it has age to it's credit. After the fall
OF the Roman empire, the returning
barbarians brought to Bohemia a
scruby little root, which failed
to attract any particular atten-
ton at that time and is not
again until 17O5, when
Oliver de Serre became convince
ed that it contained sugar. Nearly so
years later Marggraf, director of the
physical classes in the academy OF
sciences in Berlin, obtained real sug-
AZ from it, and in 1901 Aschard, a
pupil of Marggraf erected at Cunern,
oilesia, the first beet sugar factory in
The world. 1t could only produce six
IONS Of sugar per season and at 30
cents per pound. The modest little
root was not of much account for it
vas very small and contained only
about five per cent sugar. Tt grows
o great size now and runs frequent
y considerably above 20 per cent.
When the industry was first start
ID in this country the machinery was
imperfect and the sugar was not so
'ood as cane sugar. Now the machin- ,,
ny has been so perfected that the
inest sugar in the world is beet sugar !
md there is nothing in which sugar ,
$ used, where it will not bring
qually as good and usually better re- ,
ults than any other kind. !

President Wilson has signed pro-

Railroad Statistics.
Early this spring the Great North

ing Photographic reproductions Of
newspaper clippings quoting statistics
OF wheat and other grain crops over
in Montana for the 1915 season; a
great many cases were cited where
wheat threshed more than 50 bushels
to the acre. Thos. DAILY near Portage
who lives on a homestead had Is
measured acres that brought him 621h
bushels. James Dineen of st. Peters.

had 300 acres of Turkey Red wheat
last year which averaged IS bushels.
Seventy-two Bushels.
Five acres of a field owned by

so heavy that mowers had to be used.
W. B. Dolson of Bernard reaped a 60

MONTANA GRAIN
MOVEMENT

The movement of grain from
farms to country elevators and
distributing centers for the past
week was very limited on &C
count of storms and bad candi-
tion of the roads; but the deliv-
cries this week have been very
liberal. The receipts at the prin-
cipal stations in the state while
fair continue in marked con-
trast with the heavy movement
at this time a year ago.
While there is a scarcity of
cars all over the country the
railroads in Montana are max
ing an extra effort to furnish
cars as needed. Growers are
more disposed to sell, taking adj

Cost a Pretty Penny
to Take Shot at Deer

jamestown, Nov. 21-Mike Neys, of
Eldridge, was arraigned in Police Mag.
istrate Bigelow's court this afternoon
charged with hunting and pursuing
deer with the intention of killing.
Neys refused to plead not guilty and
was fined 500 and costs, the costs be-
ing $3.50. He paid the fine.
Neys was arrested by State Deputy
Game Warden Malcolm Sinclair. Ac-
cording to the evidence brought out at
the hearing the deer was first seen
about nine or ten miles north of ED.
ridge, on the Pipestem river. A farm
er named Wagner, in company with
Neys, secured shot gun and rifle and
started after the deer. According to
the story told by Neys, he shot at the
deer with the rife and Wagner shot
with the shotgun. Although the men
were within so yards of the animal
they did not hit it.
1t is supposed that the deer came
from the timber along the Missouri
river 100 miles from where the shoot
ing took place. Wagner did not ap-
pear as he promised to and it is very
likely that a warrant will be sworn
out for him some time this afternoon.
Deer are protected by law in the
state of North Dakota until the year
1920 and all hunting or shooting at
them is prohibited.

the specific charge being that he stole
an automobile owned by Fred Diddle,
father of Mary Riddle, with whom the

Late developments in the case, ac-

will be filed in federal court in the

caused the defendants arrest, as re-
suit of which he has been held in the
county Jail at Steele for approximate
ly % days.
AS the case now stands, Chance is

both testified, to elope again at the
first opportunity, while bench war
rant is out in Minneapolis for Sher-

there is considered the comparatively

The silver cup for the highest score
went to Carl Oscarhard of Devils

a possible hundred points Leonard

with $3.50.
There was an excellent representa-.
