In European factories where large nnmititiea of aturar boets are consumed daily, says the American Agricultur- the oost of turning off the product has been reduced to minimum. A delegation of Freuch sugar manufac turers recently visiting some of tbe Gerniau factories has set forth a state ment that the general cost of manufao turiug a ton of beets into sugar is $1.60 to 1.75 per tou. Thi. does not in clude the interest on the capital in vested, nor any sinking fuud to cover depreciation iu value of the factory. Where these items were included the cost was estimated at t'i aud $3.10 per ton of beets, although large fuotories have turned off sugar, at a cost much less than the first named. Au average estimate of the cost of working beets, iIlcindiiig interest and sinking fund, is piace(j at por tou. Enormoua Interrat In lleet Crops. The crop of beet sugar iu Europe has increased enormously during the last fouryeara. In 1877-78 the yield was 1,420,827 tons. The crop of the sea son 1804-U5 reaches 4,800,000 tons, an increase in seventeen years of 850 per cent. Sugar production in the temper ate zone has been the one great possi bility iu agriculture that haa not been coin plot ely developed.
