HIGHEST PRICE EVER
Next Years Contracts at
Grand Island Provide for
Six Dollars Ton Flat.
BIG SEASON is EXPECTED

Grand Island, Ncb., Dec. 2.-(Spc-
cial Tclegram,)-Six dollars per ton
fiat for bccts, with ST in addition for
beets that are sliced is the 1917 con-
tract of the American Beet Sugar
company, announced today by the
company The contracts are already
in print This is the highest price
ever paid for beetS and the company
expects to have no difficulty in getting
all OF the acreage it wants in shorter
time than ever before.
The announcement is also taken to
mean that with the shortage in the
production of sugar in European
countries, the assurance of no change
in the tariff and the monopoly of the
sea limiting imports, ther will be
no appreciate decrease in the sugar
market before the 1917 crop is on the
market.
1t has become known, at the same
time, that all beet growers this year
are receiving practical bonus OF
50 cents per ton over the amount
called for in their contracts, the sum
total for the Grand Island factory be-
ing about $4,000.
The first price paid farmers for
beets was 81, then came a sliding
scale, then S. fiat, which has been the
highest hitherto. The local factory
is in full swing and will continue
night and day and Sundays until
about January 10. 1t is grinding up
about 430 tons per day.
