reaa made with the' btet-Bugar in-
dutry, in both Oregon and Waiih
ington, during the year 18l8j
quite fully treated in a ,now reporl,
of Secretary Wilson, of the agricul
ture department. In t be, opinion
of the department, Oregon is one 61
the most promising localities in the;
country for successful heet culture,
and Washington is said, to be, in
many respects, admirably suited to
beet oulture, although the advan
tage, small though it be, is in favor
of the former state. 'Tbo average
size of tbe Oregon beet's submitted
to the department for examination
was 20 ounces, and the content of
sugar was exceptionally high, being
reported at 141 per cent, while tbe
purity was equally high, being' re
ported Bt 83.4 per ee'nfcV The fac
tory at La Grande, Or.,, started op
and demonstrated its ability to work
up about 100 tone of bee te more per
day thani'; was originally designed
for, although it failed to receive
sufficient' fats' to test' ils".pap'acity.
Tbe season's product, ;. however,
proved that ''good beets ' could be
raised in that locality in quantities
sufficient to make the production
profitable to the farmers. :. .'f ?
It has been reported to the- de
partment that : Medford; Or.,. 'and
vioinity, grew sunar beete of a; very
fino quality, end it is (aid tbat Mr.
Sprcckels, ,tbe sugar! king, . is in
communication wilb the sugar men
at Medford, hoping to build a fac
tory there. . This is in the extreme
southwestern part of; Orraon, and
that country will undoubtedly I?pld
out strong inducements - for those
interested in this industry.' '
About 250 analyses . were made
during the past year of beets' grown
in Uregon, we experiments , peinjt
conducted under' the direotion 'of
Professor G;' W; Shaw ' chemwtj
The places in .tbe state . indicating
the best results and the beet- condi
tions for producing sugar beets are
Eastern and Southern. Oregon, pur
tioularly Union; Umatilla and Mai- ,
heur.: Counties,, jn',t)ie'' east, ,'ahd

experiments indicated tnat tne av

is about $30 per acre, with an aver

in Union County. There is strong

Ai present;, the of Oregon does
not offer apy. bounty ither on bets
or sugar j but there id pending be
fore the legislature"' a bill,, for ! a
bounty on beets, with a strong prob
. It is rather,, interesting to note
that beets weighing as much as' ili

thpe prices do not iholude rent ol
iana nor cost oi aeiivory to ine iac
tory'j the latter would probably av
erage 75 . cents per ton, and tbe
former would , probably raise tbe
average, cost to 138 per acre. . Jbqs
it is seen that it is not only poesible
for Oregon to produce beets rich in
sugar; but also an excellent' yield.
In the bake' of Union' County,, it;
c'p'etii less to raise"' them than at
most other points, a tbey require
less cultivation 'than in -Southern
Oregon. A sample' of beets from
that county tbat bad had no culti
vation whatever showed 18 per cent
sugar, and a purity coefficient of 90,
which would be considered excel lest
in a sample on which tne. most
careful attention bad been bestowed.
Beets giving such yields would
have brought $4 a ton, or $00- pt-r
acre, and assuming the cost of pro
duction to be 138, there is a straight
profit of $22, besides a fair rent tor
the land and- good wages ' for tbe
work, which would be participated
in by nearly all' members of fam
ilies, for much of the work can be
done by children as well as by men.
Washington, Jackson, Clnckamas
and Union Counties are used by I
Professor. Shaw for tbe sake of con
venience; they being typical of the
various sections of the state.' In
any oneof thece four localities theie
is ample land fur the production of
beets for large factory. '
Professor , Shaw says: r"In tbi
matter of the. preservation, of these !
beets, however, I fear tbere wimld
bea eerioiis. difficulty. ,. While ii
either of IheFe counties in the Wil'
lamette yalley it is certainly, poasi
ble to produce beeta rich in eugai
and with good yield, yet on account
of the early fall 'rains .coming on
very soon- after the beets mature
and-irV tone eases' even before ma
lurity, it is very doubtful if the in
dustry would bt a reliable one. '
t ''Any one of the- four localities
could furnish an abundant Bupplt
of water.' .There Ib rio question a'e
to tbe purity of the water in any of
thelocalities. except Union County
r;'"The rioBt of limeBtohe is an im
portant factor-; In Southern and
Eastern Oregon the price of lime
rock would not exceed $2 per ton
and' might be even lees. In the
Willamette valley it would be from
$3.50 to $4. ilTbere are no analyses
of the Southern Oregon limestone
at hand,1 butspiecimRnB which

One of the editors who visited
Oregon, a few weeks ago wrote the
Salem-Journal like' this:
"This whole trip has been a suo-
cejsibn I 'of surprises.' Toi many of
tbe visitors Oregon has beeu-a rev
elation. - Her' resources are perbaoe
more varied than those of any' other
state in the Union. ' With magnifi
cent forests whicb tbe mills "e'ahnot
manufacture into lumber as fast as
they grow; with her mineral re
sources which are just beginning to
be developed;' with her fertile1 and.
inexhaustible valleys';7 ; with'y her
wonderful fishing interests ftntf 'her
vast area of rich' grazing laridsshe
ctrtainly stands without a 'peer iu
the ereat sisterhood of eta tee." :Thia
is not said simply in "return for a
few railroad courtesies and as'aa
attempt to compensate a 'people
whose hospitality knows' no limit,
but it is the voice of a cenviciioa
forced upon me after' having'rav
versed this great state from east to
west and from north to south, and
studied with painstaking, care her
resources and her capabilities."
