1.-The stockholders are to be con-
graduated on the favorable showing
made the last few years, especially in
view Of the hardships through which
the industry passed in 1916. The to-
tai cost of beets was heavier than
ever before in our history. due to the
advances made in the price per ton
and to the large amounts allowed the
farmers whose beets were frozen.
many Of which are still In the ground,
to say nothing OF the other increases
in the costs OF production. Added to
that was the fact that the beets ran
about l per cent lower in sugar con-
tent than the year before. which en-
tailed a heavy loss to the company.
Still another factor was the tremen-
dous shrinkage in the beets paid for
before they could be worked. This
ran as high as II per cent against an
average OF per cent in previous
years. The price paid for beets dur
ing the coming year, under the new
contracts. will. Of course. be much
higher than last year, the basis being
81 per ton which. with freights,
shrinkage. etc, will raise the aver
age total from s7.75 to IS per ton,
but, in spite Of this we hope that
there will be large increase in the
acreage planted which, II the plant
ing and growing conditions are favor
able and fair crop is harvested, will
enable the company to make good
showing for the year to come"
