BEET SUGAR FACTORY; NEXT TO LINEN MILL
Next to a linen mill,' Salem's-very best bet now is a beet
sugar factory r.-.- I ' ? ;
Because, like a linen mill, it will get its raw materials
as an annual crop from the land, and it will employ labor
all the way up from the land to the highest of the finished
products; much of .the labor, at big wages; and it will make a
reliable, substantial, enduring industry; and: ft .will with its
by-products nd indirectly in other ways benefit every other
industry on the land and help the growth "and permanent
prosperity of our towns and cities. ' - 1
Sugar beets exhaust the soil less than any other major
crop for they literally get their sucrose i(sugar) content
from the winds and the rains j their carbon from the air and
their hydrogen and oxygen from the water-! being made lip
of those three chemical elements. : I i I
Beet sugar making buildls up .the dairying and, other
live stock industries as no other industry can both the tops
and the pulp of the beets being excellent dairy feedi and feed
for other live stock. There is bo! waste; as there is no waste
in flax, not even the shives, ujftder late methods, j
The project of securing a pet sugar factory in Salem has
been too long delayed. A great tonnage of sugar; is used in
Salem each year. Our canneries Mand fruit packing concerns
alone use over 3,000,000 pounds of sugar j a year, and the
amount is growing and will grow '''!.
And'we are a great sugar consuming people. The United
States consigned about five million long tons of beet and cane
organized as a protest AGAINST some of the thin-s that bad
been developed in urban 'communities. The old Populist
party was such a protest, thftddevelopment during- the last
fifteen years, however, has not-been one of protect. There
has come into existence a constant driving force, attacking
rural problems and attempting to find a solution. The major
effort of rural organization during this period has; been con
centrated upon a SOLUTION of rural problems, rather than
PROTESTING against the activities of i urban centers."
At the recent conference of representatives of some of
the nation's industries and agriculture, neld in Cleveland
the following resolution was unanimously passed : V-
.' We record ourselves without reservations as approving
the principle that in better understanding, to be brought
about by frequent conference and frank statement, of our
views, lies the most effective method of solving our problems
and prompting general welfare."
1 In these efforts there is encouragement
branches of industry represented. Each should be mindful
of the other's difficulties and problems. And out of the
better understanding resulting therefrom there I will come
valuable cooperation. -
' Great progress has been made in cooperation between
the merchants and farmers of the various communities '"of
Oregon and of other states. That the success of ihe farmer
means more business for the merchant, banker and urban
enterprise generally is now an acknowledged; fact.! "And this
cooperative effort is seen in livestock loans, th6 fostering
of the boys and girls calf clubs, corn clubs and other farm
activities by bankers and other city business men.) It is seen
also at gatherings where both merchants and Tarmers-dis
cuss in common parlance their relationships and shortcom
tags as each sees them. Out of these cooperative pfforts and
helpful attitude there will continue increased good for alL

The experiments made last year and being made this
year in the growing of the new varieties of sugar beets in the
Salem district are; scarcely necessary. - r j : :
1 - - Representatives of the sugar' interests of Utah came
to Salem before the war arid proposed toxbuild here in Salem
a beet sugar factory. They told a meeting of men represent
ing the business and" property ; and banking interests here
that they had been carrying-on experiments, arid that they
had found that a large acreage; here was comparable in this
respect with the best sugar beet lands of Germany; and that
there is no better jn the world. I They stated that at the then
prevailing prices of sugar, lower than thejr have been at any
time since, the proposed factory would pay expenses and
overhead, and pay back the cost of the factory itself above
the charges named, EVERY, TWO YEARS
- Ir -The chances for, a reliable and reasonably profitable
manufacturing business in the making of beet, sugar here in
Salem are greater now . than they were then; because
there is a home market for the total output; of a sugar factory
t in the fruit concerns herej and in the "larger population of
the Salem district. ft '-.H j." I ;"'::":! :--
This matter ought by all means to be followed up vigor
ously. There should be a beet sugar factory in Salem, and it
should be owned cooperatively or at least controlled, by our
fruit growing and manufacturing interests and our home
people generally It would pay good dividends in two ways;
in the profits of manufacturing, and in the indirect profits
from the cultivation of 'the land with a crop that is a good
rotation crop, the employment of a large number of extra
laborers' in both country anc qty. and in a wonderful growth
of cur dairying ancl live stock industries - 1 ; ;
Salem ought 'also to have a sorghum mill and a syrup fac
tory; The growing of sweet sorghum is 'feasible on certain
of our warm soils. Also, wej should have broom factories, and
we can and should raise pur broom corn,1 which is a species
cf5 sorghum.

Does Help Them !
Editor Statesman: " fc
- In last evening's paper I noticed
that some one had a spasm, caused
by his or her artistic senses receiv
ing a severe -shock. r It is a pity
that some people's hearts are not
as soft as their brains. (I won't
say as large.) Then there would
be no necessity for the "ballyhoo"
on Salem's streets In the name of
'sweet charity." j I don't under
stand how "sweet" could be used
in connection' with it, as it has
been a bitter proposition for both
the helpers and the helped.
The other evening a high class
entertainment was given. ' The net
proceeds were to go to the Salem
Associated Charities. . One citizen
guaranteed the expenses and was
stuck for about 1140. The artistic
ones are evidently in the minority,
as this merry-go-round sems to be
getting the money.
'There has been appeal after dp
peal made for aid, and the re
sponses have been few and far be-

' It may be that this same merry-go-round
will accomplish more
than the mere raising, of a tew
