In notnoof tho Wedtorn HUttcn, ep cM' WIconln, NobrnNkn, Colornilo, find the Western part of Knnms, the growing of beets for sugar, ban becomo n recognized Industry. Largo factories for tlio conversion of tho beet Into sugar liavo been erected, and hero nro tmployed largo numbers of men during the fall and winter months. Colorado leads in tho production of beets. This can be accounted for by tho same reason that she Is noted for her cnntaloupcs; that Is, Irrigation and the largo numbers of days of sun shine. Tito sun shines on fully BOO days of tho year and the beet Is stim ulated to a wonderful growth. In growing beets Ui ground Is pre pared fn much the same way as for rantaloupes, a thorough breaking and imlreiixlng of th ground being neces sary for best results. After lsrellng the ground, which make Irrigation easier, the beet drill Is brought Into use. Tills drill In on the order of an ordinary groin drill, with the excep tion that It only plixTits four rows IS Inches apart nt n time, and ban no at tachments for drilling In fertilizer. On tho drill are two small shovels, placed so tlwt they make two furrows be tween tho two rows on each aide. These furrown carry the Irrigating water, which soaks back and moistens the seed. When through with the seeding, the water Is turned Into tho furrows mado by tho drill, between each two rows. Tho water Is kept running until the seed Is thoroughly soaked, core being taken that tho water does not over flow very much, as this causes the ground to take, and the sprouts cannot force their way through the crust thus formed. When plants have obtained the height of one-half Inch to an Inch, the cultivator Is brought Into use. This cultivator Is drawn by one THE ItOCKY KOKD horso and cultivates two rows at a time. It Is mounted on two wheels, each about 80 Inches lu diameter. Bc blud these wheels aro two horizontal bars, connected by two other bar to tho axle, on which they have a free up nnd down motion. There Is also a pivot which allows a sldo motion, con trolled with handles by tho operator. With the cultivator are several seta of knlvw, shovels, etc., any of which can be fastened to the horizontal bars, tho grower using whatever kind Is adapt ed for the kind of cultivation be wish es. When plants are a couple of inches high they are thinned out, leaving plants six to ten Inches apart. This work Is usually done by contract, the prlco paid averaging from (0 to $7 ler acre. In removing beets from the ground, a large plow or lifter Is used. This plow has a depth of 18 Inches or more, mado neevssory by the great depth to which tho beet penetrates the soil. It Is drawn by threo or four horses, and raises the boot partly out of the ground, so that It can be picked up by the topper. The beets are taken by local freight to tho factory, where they are dumped Into long ditches, which have n stream of wnter flowing through them. These Pitches, which are lined with cement. slope toward the factory building, near which they converge Into one largo one. The water In these ditches serve the double purpose of carrying and partially cleaning the beets. At the end of this large ditch, the bHts are raised from the water by nn elevating apparatus, which deposits them In n largo washing machine. This consists of an immense spiral revolving In a round Iron box. placed In n horizontal position, and with a stream of clear wnter flowing through IL Tho beets, rolling and tumbling, are pushed for ward through this wnter, nnd coming out freo from dirt, are deposited In a screw elevator nnd carried to the top of tho factory. Hero they And their way Into an automatic weighing ma chine, then dumped Into tho sllcer where they nro cut In small pieces. On tho next floor below tho slicer Is located tho diffusion battery, which Is composed of a number of Iron tanks, placed In a group. Tho tanks are con nected with each other by largo pipes, and each tank Is capable of holding threo or four thousand pounds of the slices, Tho drat tank Is tilled with slices, nnd has wnter turned Into It, This Is allowed to stand while tho second tank Is tilling with slices. Then the valve connecting the first tank with the second Is opened, and the wnter in the first tank, having absorb ed some sugar from tho slices, Is forced Into the second by fresh wnter being pumped Into tho first. This water passes from tank to tank ab sorbing a little moro sugar from each tauk, uutU It has gone through them im1 illiali t , Hi xjS Wi ii iHmki H m 'i'i h I I lfcsaWwHswnHIHwi i TWII ni" "Tr-'- T aMMWg?ff!Msg5ggS ii . Tgia II K all. The first lot of water turned Is? takes out 50 per cent of tho sugar, and tho second lot taken CO per cont of tho romalnder. This Is repeated ton times, and In tho end has exhausted nil the sugar from tho slices to within ona tonth of one per cent Tho sllcos re maining after this process aro dropped from the tanks and run through large presses, and tho partly dried pulp In deposited In cars and wagon to bo used for feeding cattle, It being a great milk and flesh producer. Tho Juice remaining la of a oVtrk In-own color, containing much organic matter not sugar. It Is ran Into talt tanks holding a couple thousand gal lons, and here the lime solution which takes out the organic matter, Is add ed. It now goes through a serlea of boilings, Altering and clarifying pro cesses, which leave the fluid a moder ately thick syrup, ready to be boiled down to sugar. The syrup Is pumped up Into large round vacuum pans. In side these pans are colled large copper steam pipes, and a large air pump produces a high vacuum and removes the evaporated witter so that tho syrup bolls very rapidly and at a very low temperature. This boiling mass Is watched through glass windows In the sides of the pans, and when small grains begin to appear they are fed by adding fresh syrup until they reach the required size. When the size Is light, and the water evaporated sufficiently, the steam Is turnod off, the pump stoppd, and the mas In allowed to run Into the, tanks below, by opening a valve at tlio outlet In the bottom of the pan. The syrup at this stage has the ap pearance of dark molasses, thickened with granulated sugar, and Is so thick that It will barely ran. This is put In to the "centrifugals," largo whirling drums having their aides perforated, and lined with gauze. As these ma chines whirl around, the sugar rises along the sides of the drum, and the ET SUOAIt FACTOKY. molasses Is thrown out through the holes In the sides, leaving tho sugar sticking to the gauze. The sugar is washed by spraying cold water and air against It ns It whirls, a little bluing being added to giro It brilliancy. Tlio machine Is stopped and the sugar now white and moist. Is dropped from the bottom of the machine and conveyed to tho granulator, where It Is dried. This granulator Is a large horizontal, revolving cylinder, heated by steam. While drying Is in process, the fine dust of sugar Is drawn out by a suc tion blower. The sugar passes out of the granulator through screens at the end, which removes the lumps. Tho sugar Is now placed In bags ready for shipment. The molasses which has been thrown from the centrifugals, Is either mixed with fresh syrup nnd boiled again, or Is boiled nlono and once more passed through the machines. Tho brown sugar resulting. Is refined by mixing with fresh syrup. In all beet factories, chemicals play an Important part, and the laboratory might be called the heart of the fac tory, as It Is through the agency of chemicals that the sugar la extracted from the beet All beets, Juice, syrups and boiled sugars, are tested, and the analysis of every pound of sugar Is known, and every loss located and ac counted for. Tho values of different soils and fertilizers for beet growing are tested, as are also all coal, coka and limestone used. At Itocky Ford, In Southeastern Col orado, Is located one of the largest beet sugar factories In the country. Tho buildings are built of brick, and aro surrounded by fine grounds and fine residences, where somo of the officers of tho company live. Like oil other factories, this one runs day and night, seven days in a week, ami only stops in case of an accident or to clean up. This fnctory, on an average, converts 1,100 tons of beets Into sugnr every twenty-four hours. One ton of beets will innko 200 to 275 pounds of sugar, and from 1,100 tons, this means about ISO tons of sugar each day. Williams port (Pa.) Grit. A lUotcraprtloal Dictionary.
