FIRST BEET CROP
SUGAR COMPANY BEGINS
SEEDING AT ECHO.
Land Has Been Leased From C. R.
Lisle Seven Teams Now at Work
Preparing the Land First Beet
Ever Planted In Umatilla County.
The first sugar beet seed that over
came Into Umatilla county, In any
quantity, was unloaded nt Echo yes
terday and will bo planted Immedi
ately on the farm of C. n. Lisle, near
that place.
The La Grande sugar factory peo
ple sent over twven teams, all the
necessary plows, harrows, planters
and drills, to begin preparing the
land for tho first beet crop of this
county. The sugar company has
lpased a tract of land from Mr. Lisle
nnd will prepare It and seed In tho
proper manner, in hopes of demon
strating beyond a doubt that this Is
sugar-beet country.
ThO Echo peoplo who have con-
Iracted to plant beet crops this year
will joUoiy the instructions and Imi
tate the practices of tho sugar beet
people in order to get the benefit of
their wide and profitable experience.
The beet seed used in tho county
at this timo comes largely from Ger
many. Some small farms in Utah
are devoted to seed raising and the
Eastern Oregon Experiment Station
at Union, has on hand several tons
of native crown beet seed which
will bo sold at cost to tho farmers.
Tho season In Umatilla county Is
fully a mouth earlier than in Grando
Hondo valley, ami experienced beet
misers say that the young plants
will get such a good start beforo tho
dry season arrlveB that drought will
not affect them oven whero tney can
not be irrigated. It will bo moro
than n month beforo tho crops will
bo planted in Grando Hondo valloy.
ljxsl year It was so cold thoro that
tho seed rotted in tho ground after
It was planted. Tho warm soli hero
will avert any such a disaster to tho
crop.
WILL ARRIVE TOMORROW.
