BECOMING A BEET GROWER

BECOMING A BEET GROWER
Through the formation of the stoel
company to be known as the Grant,
Psss Beet Growing association. op.
portunity Is offered every citizen oi
the community to become a grower
OF sugar beets in reality. A great
industry has been built here. and |,
b the patriotic duty of all to put
forth every effort to make II the sue
cess which II can be made. The only
thing that stands between success and
fixture Of sugar factory is beets.
Given enough beets. the Grants Pass
factory win stand out as the greaA-
est success Of any yet constructed
Other conditions that are present
here do not obtain in most localities.
Our beets have . high sugar content.
and are in every way desirable from
the point Of view of the owners Of
the factory. Lime Of the best quail
ify Ii near at hand. There is plenty
Of good land and water for irriga-
ton. and the only thing lacking is
the planting Of the land and the dis
tribution Of the water for irrigation.
Here is where our people must
come into the game. The factory
was built at Grants Pass because it
was reasonable to expect that the
beets would be grown. And they will
: be grown. But to operate the fac
tory at anything like capacity it will
require that every available acre in
this vicinity be planted. Through
the incorporation Of the beet growing
company lands that belong to non
residents. or that for other reasons
might not be planted. can be made to
produce beets at 81 per ton. and
thus add to the prosperity Of the
community and the success OF the
factory. The man who has no acre
Of his own to plant can buy a share
Of stock in the new company and
grow beets without having to give
his personal attention to the opera
ton. He can collect his dividend
just the same.
And speaking OF dividends bring
up the vital question Of beet grow
ing. viii It pay? we told our peo
pie that 1t would pay at $3.50 pei
ton. Other districts had made 4
pay at that. Then the price wal
boosted, and boosted again. A tol
Of beets will now bring the grower
81. Irrigated lands, such as thi,
company will farm, will produce al
average, certainly, OF IS tons PEI
acre. Last seasons experience dem
onstrate that. So II is a safe bet tina
stock in the beet growing compan!
will be pretty good stuff to own. Th,
sugar company has agreed to suppl!
an expert foreman TO oversee tn,
work. II will also take care OF tn,
labor problem.
But bigger than the question o
making the stock pay dividend Il
the moral support which ownership
Of this stock will represent. It Il
every citizens duty to get behInt
the enterprise. and there is no wa,
he can do II better than by encour
