Much loss Iowa Sugar.

The plant of the Northern Sugar
Corporation at Mason City was clos
ed Saturday night in the completion
of converting the 1919 crop of beets
into sugar. Company officials say
that 100000 pounds of sugar
were made this year as compared to
100000 pounds in 1918.
Cause for the decreased produc-
tion this season is given as the low
sugar content of the beets This
is said to have run extremely low
tnis season, some of the beets failing
to average more than three and
one-half percent sugar content.
The mill works on a 24-hour day
during the refining season and en-
ploys two shifts of IL hours each.
Three hundred men have been en-
ployed at the plant this winter.
Fifty men will be retained during
the year to overhaul the plant and
make such structural changes as
may be desired.
No trouble was encountered by
the plant during the extreme coal
shortage due to the recent strike of
coal miners because the seasons
supply of fuel had been stored in
the yards early in the fall and was
entirely sufficient for the demand
placed upon it.

One Vote Cost Fire.

The vote of one man, cast several
years ago defeating proposition to
install a water system in the town
of Goodell, has proved costly to the
business men of that place.
An entire business block, con-
sisting of stores on both sides of
the street, was destroyed in two fires
in less than a week recently. The
loss is almost total, as little insur-
ance was carried, due to the high
rate incurred from lack of fire
protection. Several years ago
when the citizens of the town voted
on issuing bonds for the installa-
ton of a modern water system, the
proposition was defeated by one
vote.
