TO OUR BEET GROWERS OF 1915:
The 1916 Beet Contracts are now out
and We are ready to sign up with
growers. The fieldmen are handling
, them II their respective districts.
Owing to scarcity of seed, and to
secure sufficient beets to operate our
factories, we can only furnish II
pounds Of seed per acre, and no re-
plant seed. 80 we take this oppor-
tunity of impressing on our growers
the Importance OF an early and tho
rough preparation Of the seed bed
and Of having beet drills overhauled
and repaired as oon as possible.
Fall plowing should be worked with
Ion = straight toothed harrow as soon
as the frost leaves the land. which
will help to settle it and conserve
moisture. This should be done weekly
until planting time arrives. Spring
plowing should be commenced at the
earliest possible date so that the
plowed land may be exposed to the
elements as long as possible before
planting season, and worked weekly as
suggested on fall plowinE. A harrow
should be attached to plow, or II this
is not done, the new plowed land
should be narrowed at least every half
day.
The teeth on most of the harrows in
this district show only from to
inches through the frame, and the
. deepest they can work is four inches
when running perpendicular. Those
teeth should be driven through the
frame so that they can stir the soil
to depth of six to eight inches, to
. settle and put it in proper condition
for seeding.
There is no crop that responds to
good work quicker or better than a
sugar beet, and there is more necessity
for perfect work this season than in the
past. Our field force will examine
and approve all seed beds before plant
ing.
The seed indicators on beet drills
are very imperfect and it is imposs-
ible to tell the amount you are seed
ing without testing the drill before
seeding or by measuring certain
distance on the first four rows drilled
and weighing the seed for the test.
We have growers who only plant 10
to II pounds of seed per acre every
season with good results. They have
good stands, and We feel satisfied that
the same results can be attained by all
II we get right down to business by
keeping the seed in the sack until the
seed bed is in proper condition to re-
ceive it.
Call up this office or your district
fieldman any time you want informa-
tion or assistance along above lines
and we will be pleased to assist you at
any time.
Yours very truly,
r. NJ. BARR.

ID DEVELOP MINE
 0N P|GC0TT BAY
Additional Two Hundred Feet Tunnel on Gold Property.

H. c. Vance, who has been, con- nected with the development of the Jig copper mine at Bay of Isles, on Knights island, has purchased big outfit and will leave on the launch Shamrock Saturday for Piggott bay, where he will undertake the devel- opment of gold quartz property. He is interested with Sam Pepper in the option to purchase the mining prop erty owned by Daly and Bennett, and will arrange with the locators for running two hundred feet of tunnel in order that the values of the ore bodies may be demonstrated.
 Considerable development work has been done on the property by the locators, several hundred feet of tun- nel having been run into the noun tain-side to tap the lead at a depth of several hundred feet. Assay re- turns from numerous tests show that while the lead is not as large as some of those which have developed into big mines that the values are excep- tionally high.
