ADVANTAGES OF SUGAR BEET
PRODUCTION

The growth of the sugar beet indus
try will mean over 500, 100000 to wes-
tern farmers this year. With proper
encoura cement and development of
this industry this amount could be
doubled and trebled in a short time.
Those who have made a careful
study of the subject are agreed that
the introduction of sugar beets into the
agriculture Of a region results in good
il many ways. In the European coun-
tries where beet raising has seen its
greatest development, agriculture has
a stability that is not found in the
newer countries where sugar beets
have not been introduced
The fact that the farmer has sure
market for his crop at a price known
in advance. enables him to judge more
accurately the value Of the land. Ex-
perience shows the approximate yield
of beets he may expect and cost Of
production.
The raising Of sugar beets Is not
consistent with poor farming.
In all the farming communities
work is more pressing in the summer
than during the winter. In order to
have sufficient help to care for crops
during the busy season there - an
excess at other times. This means
that ordiaarily some of the hands are
idle and that winter wages are low.
II there is a sugar factory in the
community. it uses a great number OF
men during the winter and the conges-
ton is relieved. Those who would
otherwise be Idle are given employ
ment and the entire winter wage scale
for the community is advanced.
Sugar beet raising calls for the in
tensive farming and promotes dense
population. This makes possible a
better educational facilities and more
desirable social opportunities, there
by reducing to a minimum some of the
chief disadvantages OF farm life.
