lothian Allen Takes Exceptions to
Beet Sugar Article.

lothian Allen, manager of the
Alma Plant of the Michigan Sugar
company, has taken some big ex-
ceptons to an article in The Lansing
State Journal of January 10, by c.
+. Alderman, and has submitted the
following article regarding the cam
paign of the local plant this year as
means of refuting some of the
statements made in Mr.. Ackerman's
story.
The article in the Lansing State
Journal of January 10 by c.. +. Ack-
erman, Big Field for Beet Indus
try" is so far from the facts that
do not believe there are many who
will believe it, but for fear there are
those who may think there is some
truth in it, | wish to submit a few
figures from the Alma plant for your
careful consideration.
Owe will pay the farmers this last
year for S7,933.29 tons Of beets and
dirt, and we have made from this
beet and dirt Is, 6SS,415 pounds of
sugar, which gives us 212.5 pounds Of
sugar per ton of beets and dirt. Now
] know this to be the truth myself,
as | have taken these figures very
carefully from our books. The aver
age sale price Of our sugar ! do not
know exactly at this time, but think
it will be trifle over $11.00 per 100
pounds in car lots as we sell it.
"Now, let us figure again: We
made this last campaign assoc tons
Of dried beet pulp from the 81
933.29 tons of beets and dirt for
which we paid the farmers, which
gives us just 20.07 tons of beets and
dirt TO one ton of dried pulp Then
again, we made 3OS6.42 tons of mo-
lasses from the above amount Of
beets and dirt, which gives us % tons
of beets for one ton of molasses.
