der contract to the Great Western SUI
gar company are in excellent condi-
tion. according to ". II. Riddcll. agri-

too early to make an accurate estimate
of the average yield per acre. but the
growers and the company are highly
pleased with the prospect. There is
also every indication that the sugar
eontent of the beets will be high.
Harvest in October.
Harvesting win begin about October

bccts will be shipped to the factory as

Hard Work Needed.
Hard work. and a lot Of it. is re-
sronsiblc for the good condition of the
beet crop at this time said Mr.. Rid
dell yesterday. Nobody outside the
work realizes the obstacles that had to
be overcome this year. To begin with.
the season was late; we were almost a
month behind in getting the crop
planted. Then nearly all the ground
was foul--filled with weed and grass
seeds. And q large proportion Of the
growers were without experience in
raising beets."
