Soc Per Ton Is
Additional
On 1919 Crop

Glen w. Yeager, chief agri-
culturist, Holly Sugar corpora
ton, today announced that a
supplemental payment with re-
spect to the 1949 beet crop
would be made March Is to all
growers in the Hardin factory
district. .-,.,@~~
The supplemental payment
will be at the rate of soc per
ton. This payment, together
with government ntS
made pursuant to the Sugar
Act, will bring TIE total grower
receipts to date to approximate
II $11.72 per ton, or $147. 81 per
acre, based on a 1916 ton crop.
The average yield for the
district during the past year
was slightly over 1876 tons,
Yeager said.
Company officials explained
that pursuant to the terms I'M
der which sugar. beetS are pur-
chased, an initial payment is
made shortly after the sugar
beets are delivered and that
additional payments are made
from time to time, depending
upon market conditions and the
quantities of sugar sold. Final
settlement is made after the
conclusion of the sales year,
which ends on September 80,
1850. #
The Secretary of Agriculture
has estimated consumption re-
quirements for 1850 to be seven
and a half million short tons
of sugar, raw value.
This figure is exactly identi-
cal with the estimate with
respect to 1949 which prevailed
from mid-Seotember until the
conclusion of the calendar year.
Sugar distribution in the Uni
ted States for the calendar year
amounted to somewhat more
than the estimate of consump-
ton requirements. It is hoped
that 1850 will again be a sue
cessful sugar beet year.

"On account of the warm
