EXAMPLE FROA COLORADO
The Orange J udd Farmer, published
at Chicago, New York and Springfield,
Mass, one of the most influential
agricultural . papers In the United
States, has the following Interesting
Item In its Issue of April 14 regarding
the ralslue of sugar beets and the
beueflt of a factory to a community.
At this time, an' Eugene and Lane
couuty are becoming interested in a
proposal to establish such an industry
here, It will prove a much-appreciated
eource of Information.
The great Importance of a beet sugtt
factory 111 developing agricultural
prosperity Is strikingly showu by the
results of the Colorado Suirar Man
ufacturing Co's operations at Grand
Junction. This comoany has $400,000
In vested In this factory, maohluery,
etc, and $80,000 in farm lauds. It
controls by ownership or lease WOO
aores, ot which 1000 will be devoted to
beets In 1900. In addition to this area,
3500 acres of beets will bo grown fur
the factory by outside farmers.
Some of these beets are grown at a
considerable distance aud slilpped to
the factory by rail, 75 miles being tbe
extreme limit of such shipments. Those
that are grown wlihlu seven miles,
however, are hauled on wagon. The
factory's capacity is 400 tons of beets
per day, and between 00,000 and 70,
000 tons ure needed to meet its require
meuts for a sugar "campaign" or
season. Of tliis quantity tbo company
raises about 15,000 tons, and the bal
ance, say 6U,0. J tous, is growu by
farmers. The price paid is $4 50 per
tou ut the lactory, muklug a total
payment to farmers of $-2u,0j0 annu
ally. In growing beets on its own
loud, the company employs 300
luborers, anil 130 are employed In the
faotory during the busy season
Altogether the concern pays 180,000 for
labor. This inakoH a total disburse
meut to farmers aud laborers of $800,
OOOeach year. Anyone familiar with
with the conditions that prevail lu the
furml ig sections can realize what it
meaus to expend $300,000 every year
iu a limited farming and villaire com
munity. It means prosperity with a
big P.
The entire cost of plowing, seedlug,
cultivating, thinning, hoeing, harvest
lug and delivery to the faotory Is a
little lees than $25 per aero In this part
of Colorado. This Is assuming the
farmer hires all his work and pays $3
per day for a man and two-horse team,
and $1.50 for a man and 75 cents lor a
boy. Delivery to fuotory Is estimated
at $1 per ton, but this Item of course
varies with the distance, and whether
shipped by rail or delivered by wagon
Rail freight rauges from 35 cents U
$1.50 per ton, according to distance
Tbe average yield is 15 tons per aore,
which -ot $4.50 per ton gives a return o
M7.60. Deduotlng tbe gross coBt of $25
there is u net profit of $42.50 per aore,
When the work la done by the farmer
aud bis family and with his own
teams, be does not feel the cost, because
It has been doue with a very small
outlay ol money.
In addition to this, tbe pulp or beet
refuse remaining after the sugar has
been extracted Is a valuable cattle food,
selling at the very low price of 50 cents
tier ton. This enables the farmer to
greatly iucrer.se his stock, and besides
making a profit on the animals, keep
up the fertility of bis land through the
manure obtained.
General agricultural prosperity is
most clearly shown In the price of
land. If farmers are prosperous and
have a reasonable expectation of coo
tii ulug so, the price of land rises
when tbey are losing money It falls,
What is the result at Grand Junction?
Before this faotory was established
laud was held at $30 per sore; now a
fair valuation for sugar beet land Is $60
tier acre. For all the farming land
here, the estimated increase In value
caused by the building of this factory,
Is $800,000, and the town property has
increased $200,000, making a total
Increase of $1,000,000 through the suc
cessful operation of this factory. The
Importance of the beet sugar Industry
to the farmer cannot be more strikingly
