Pointers On
Sugar BeetS
Valuable Advice For Farmers In The
Milk River Valley Section

The following extracts from an
address made by w. l.. Petrikin, be-
fore the Fifteenth Annual conven-
ton OF the American National Live
Stock association, is interesting to
The men who have land capable of
irrigation in the Milk River valley.
Professor Henry, in his Feeds
and Feeding" makes the following
statements: "A farming community
which will intelligetnly grow beets,
and utilize the pulp resulting from
them in the feeding of cattle, will
be able to grow as large crops, in
addition to the beets, as were pro-
duced before adding that industry,
and to maintain many more cattle
,han was possible before beet-farm-
ing was inaugurated This state
metn is warranted by the conditions
prevailing in the best districts OF
Europe. Beet culture means more
cattle and larger crops generally,
rather than less, provided always
that the pulp from the beets is prop
erly utilized"
10 sum up: An acre of sugar
beets produces from 1000 to 5000
pounds Of granulated sugar, worth
on an average from four to five
cents per pound at tthe factory, or
from $50 to $50 per acre; in addi-
ton to the possible production Of
300 pounds OF beef, worth form SIS
10 SIS per acre. There is no other
staple crop today whose market is
practically unlimited, which can
produce such values per acre. These
values produced per acre Justify the
expenditure Of large sums of money
on tn efarm and in the factory.
The hand labor on 10000 acres
of beets occupies at least 400 fam
lilies for half-year. The working
up of the crop in the factory and
the maintenance Of the factory dur
ing the idle season, will necessitate
at least the labor of 1875 wage-earn-
ers the whole year: not mentioning
the labor necessary to mine the
large quantities OF coal and lime
rock, OF which about $4,000 tons
coal and 10000 tons lime-rock are
cosumed per 10000 acres, nor the
