Clements Farmers
Wilt Raise Beets
PLANS FOR ESTABLISHING SU-
GAR BEET STATION DIS
CUSSED AT MEETING.

According to plans discussed Fri
day evening at meeting at Clements
the farmers of that vicinity will use
part of their land for the raising
of sugar beets next year. M. L. Pet
tbs who has charge of the sugar beet
stations in this county was present
at the meeting and he spoke of the
favorable conditions for the raising
of sugar beets on the land near Gle
mentsne The only drawback is the fact
that some of the farms are rather
large. 1t is believed that the tenant
problem can be met satisfactorily.
R. F. Benham, who owns large
tract of land near Clements, was
backing this movement and signified
his intention of signing up part of
his acreage for beet raising. Three
hundred acres are required to start a
station and while none of the farmers
were asked to sign up, over the re-
quired acreage was agreed to by those
at the meeting.
County Agent Sheldon was pre-
sent at the meeting and gave certain
Farm Bureau reports along with a
discussion of the meeting held at Win
dom Tuesday relative to price fixing
