A man is more apt than a woman
TO go crazy when be falls In love.
The Julesburg grit-advocate., 1921-09-22

interview, that under halfway normal
weather conditions the beet growers
can deliver considerable part of the
crop in November without hardship,
and at saving in fewer hired team
sters and teams.
Even with the restrictions we may
place on the delivery this season, the
beet crop will be taken off the farm
ers' hands with less delay and incon-
venience than any other staple crop.
For the benefit of the farmer we
have done everything possible in the
past few years to enable him, after
ne arrives at the dump, to unload his
beets with the least possible delay.
This has been done by providing large
numbers Of conveniently located de-
livery stations, most of them mechan-
ically well equipped The equipment
and maintenance of it represents
heavy capital expenditure by the COM
pany.
ION the other hand, the speedier the
delivery during the delivery season in
excess of the slicing capacity the lar
ger will be the quantity of beets to be
stored at the company's expense. This
expense consists of the actual cost of
reloading the piled beets and the su-
gar losses incurred during the pro-
longated period of storage in the COM
panys hands.
1.-The diminishing of this costly
storage Of beets can be done only in
two ways. One is to slice the beets
faster and the other is to receive them
slower. AS is well known, our factor
:es sliced last year at the highest ca
pacity known. This was made posi-
ole by the expenditure of large sums
of money for the necessary equipment
and maintenance of the factories, and
by an efficiently working operating
organization. The company, in other
words, has done fully its share.
1.-THE company very literally re-
moved more-and more restrictions for
nerly placed ,on early deliveries.
''In late years the growers have
spent an entirely unnecessary amount
Of cash to hire additional men and
teams besides raising wages for this
work beyond what was economical and
necessary. The result was harvest
