o. T. Trmble, Harry V. Pyle, Dave
Swenk and Charles Bear motored over
to Mancos Saturday evening to attend
the beet sugar factory meetin g. There
were number of persons present from
Durango. The meeting was held in
the Mesa Verde Club rooms and the
proposition was presented very clearly
to those present. In brief, the propo-
sition as presented by the promoters is
to secure thirty thousand acres of land
in the San Juan basin, land that is
suitable to growing beets, this land
will be paid for in preferred stock in
the sugar company that will be formed
to erect and operate the factory. The
proposition will be financed by bonding
the land thus obtained. This land will
be sold on long payment to persons
who are willing to plant certain
acreage to beets each year. Beside
this guarantee of five thousand acres
of beets must be secured for certain
number of years. 1t is also desired
that 100000. 90 of stock be sold to be
used in clearing titles to land that
may be secured. There is not much
doubt that the land and money could
be secured, as they only want land
that is not being farmed as it should
be, in other words they want the sur
plus land. But it will be probably
more difficult to secure the necessary
acreage of beets, as it requires lots of
work to grow beets. Those Durango
boys are live bunch and are going
after this enterprise in dead earnest.
A sugar factory at Durango would
benefit the entire San Juan basin and
open the way for more factories in the
valley,
