Psalm 46 : 1. ; ., I FIFTY-FIFTY FOR GROWER AND MANUFACTURER Utah has-led the country in number of beet sugar fac tories. That state had up to last year nineteen, with Colo rado eighteen factories f .

And the Great Western has decided to build two inew factories, one at Johnstown , and the other at Ovid;, The one at Ovid is to cost over a million dollars.. Work is to be start ed at once, and it is to "be ready for the 1 920 crop. . Beets led all Colorado crops in money value last year; the total being 5132,015,097, with sugar, beets at $20,868;120. The wheat crop was valued at 18,849,329, and corn at $13,772,000. j VJ: ' -v---.- vV: v'j r I There is growth in nearly ail (the beat sugar, factory districts of the country; in acreage in sugar tonnage J per acre, and in sugar content, and steady improvement of ;fac- tory methodsj and in cooperation between manufacturer and . .grower. '!';' H::-; ':'vCj::hUV-l-J ('''''': The new contract between factory and jgrower throiigh out the biter mountain states is a strictly fifty-fifty proposi tion. The industry has been gradually working up to this. The grower is protected against loss1 by a guaranteed mini mum price of $6 a ton for his beets, estimated to cover actual cost of production. . Then there is an Jequal division of the net returns from "the crop, after deducting the selling expenses. j ' , , , . . L . : ; This makes the grower a full partner, and his interest in the industry is increased far above what it was when he got so much a ton and that was the end of Jit; ifte is inter ested in a high yield and a high recovery of sugar content. He is ready to cooperate to enhance the profits of the f acjtory, for he is in on the increase, fifty-fifty. - He wants lqw-freighfe rates and other costs, for the same reason. . , , All this is interesting to the Salem' district Rpransp the next bier forward movement here mu3t be jhe securing of beet sugar, factories. They, are needed for the people to whom they will give employment,: and the are especially needed to provide a cultivated crop in our schemes of rotation, and to aid in pushing forward Our live stock inter ests. with the use of the by-products, that is, the beet tops and the pulp and molasses. : ' 1 !l - . I The Willamette valley, could easily supply the beets' for as many factories as' Colorado has; and the first factory should be at Salem, and it should be built next year In time to take the 1926 beet crop. ! V; Si 33 5ri SILENCING THE CRITICS Long and loud have been the wails from the old game commission guard in protesting the, appointment of V.V L. Finlev to the commission. Circular letters sent broadcast over the state supplemented bitter verbal and press attacks on the Governor for making the appointment. Everything; connected with the propagation, preserya j tion ; and hunting of game was represented by the oljd re gime controlling the game commission as-sure to go to the bow wows, with Finley and a new warden ;on the jobj Pn 1': account of Finley's superior qualifications jf or he position i and his reputation for, straight-forward conduct of official I business the avalanche of criticism I hurled j at-him at first soon subsided. ; The fact that the former ! warden and his I assistant had been for some time operating a private fish ; pond for commercial purposes while working for thejeom ) mission helped also to tone down the shouts of the game n. barons.
