Beet Factory Review
Tells Conditions
This Season

In a recent financial article in the
San Francisco Chronicle an idea of
what IS doing in the beet sugar fac
tories about the bay district is shown.
The article being of interest in this
community at the present moment,
and the factories operating not be-
ing as well made nor as costly as the
Fallon plant, gives a chance for home
specnlation:
With slicing in Full swing since
early in August, it is possible to esti-
mate, with fair accuracy, the prob
able output for the year of two of
the important beet sugar companies
of California, whose stocks are trad
ed in regularly on the San Francisco
exchanges.
The Alameda Sugar Company
should manufacture this year ap-
proximately 1880 tons of beet
sugar, while the production of the
Union Sugar Company is estimated
at about $1,000 tons.
Sugar is being refined at both
plants, and is moving into the hands
of the consumers very rapidly.
The Steffens process at the Union
Sugar factory at Betteravia is work
ing ont we'll, and it is reported that
il is giving far higher extraction OF
sugar content than was obtainable
under the old process in use in this
beet-sugar refinery.
Figuring this years output of
these two companies rated at the
present price of beet sugar, gives q
possible profit for the year fer the
Alameda Sugar Company of $780,
600. The Alameda has 0,OO0 shares
of stock outstanding. The Union
Sugar Company should earn this year
a profit of about 100000, as agains.
which there are 10000 shares of
stock outstanding.
In short, the outlook for both COM
panies is excellent, and some of the
principal stockholders seen expressed
themselves as greatly encouraged.

Sees Big Possibilities

The following letter addressed to
the Consolidated Independent Sugar
Factories by l.. Herman, chief agri-
culturist of the Scandinavian Seed
Company & r. Wiboltt, Ltd, grow
ers of Danish sugar beet seed, with
offices in Copenhagen and New York,
is of special interest:
II have recently made a survey of
the Fallon district in Nevada near
the sugar factory to which you have
recently acquired the title.
For some time we have been
looking for territory in the United
States which, in our judgment, would
be ideal for the raising of sugar
beets and demonstrating Danish
methods of beet culture. 1t goes
without saying that, in order to pro-
duce satisfactory sugar beets, of high
quality, it is absolutely necessary 70
have ideal conditions. both as to eli
mate and soil.
MY survey of the Fallon district
has convinced me that this is an
ideal location for the raising Of
sugar beets, but my concern would
not care to invest heavily in this dis
triet unless it can be assured that
the Fallon sugar factory will be op.
Grated. When your firm can assure
us that you have contracted suffi-
cient acreage with the farmers in
the Fallon district to assure the op-
Grafton of the factory, we desire TO
lease approximately one thousand
acres in that district and will place
expert Danish beet raisers on this
acreage.
Our purpose in making this move
is the fact that we contemplate in
the near future raising sugar beet
seed In this locality for use. in the
western part of the United States
because a native seed will, as a rule,
produce a more satisfactory result
than seed grown in foreign countries
where the climatic conditions are not
the same.
THE fact that there has been
some appearance OF what Is known
as the Eutettis tenella, commonly
known as "curly leaf'') in this dis
trict, would make no difference with
our plans, as we do not consider this
serious menace to the raising of
sugar beets in this territory"

opinion of many experts insuch mat
tiers that such an association could
render great assistance in the produc-
ton of silver in all of the Americas
and in its orderly marketing, so as
to meet seasonal demands and pre-
vent unfair and detrimental control
over its price. These experts believe
that the formation of an association
of this character would do much to
avoid the necessity for additional leg
islation for the encouragement of sill
