T Eight Million Bafts Jn'lft Years The "completion of sithe "nine teenth campaign gives gorge inter esting totals in the operation of the plant. During the; period of 19 years, 8,33,784 bagof sugar have been mad. The factory has used. 586,174 tjons, of ciial, nearly all from Montana; 206,280 tons of lime rock, 20.435 toils of coke and ;i,9 93999 pounds i of sulphur. There has also been produced 712,143 tons of pulp, enough to fatten 101,735 cattle or 915,975 sheep, To fatten l be same amount of ' stock would require 91,562 ton3 of hay which,' at 18 a ton. would have cost $732,496. In the 19 years, 17,280 men were required to operate the mill. These men, r with' their' families would have made a city with a population of 52,170, There, were; also employed 31,000 laborers in I the fields. If each of these labor ers spent only $75 in Montana j they left in the state $2,325,000. Future Hoems Bright : i' ' In speaking of the year's cam paign ;, W. P. Hogarty, general manager, said: "The outlook for the beet sugar Industry is the best in years. Resulfs have again shown ; that with', a beet Crop in proper rotation a farmer on 160 acres can make more money than when it Is left out of his plans. Big Acreage Next Season ; "The. acreage grown.. in 1925 in Montana will be even greater than in ine year past aue to the stimu lative effect of the two other fac tories contempfated on the Lower Yellowstone and the Milk river districts. "In spite of the decline in sugar markets, prospects are looking to ward better prices later on. have every, reason to believe that farm ers win receive a very., satisfac tory price when the final pay ments, are. made. Future prices are( looked upon by manufactur ers as likely to be good for an in definite period. ; - " ' ' 1 " '"The season which . has closed has been the largest and best in our, history and to its success farmers and laborers and the men in .'every . department have con contributed. Both harvest and campaign were "brought tb a close without delay or losses and in rec ord time, considering that the total output of sugar' gave an increase of 36d,00O " bags over last year. With the enlarged capacity of the plant, new records were made in speed and efficiency, and the local factory has climbed to- first place in sugar production." In addition to!
