BLOCKS CROWING OF BEETS.
Lsck of Railroads Prevents Oregon
Prom Becoming Sugar State.
Washington, Juno 28. According to
the United States Department of Agri
culture, lack of transportation facili
ties in Oregon is seriously retarding
the development of the beet sugar in
dustry in that state. Oregon today has
but one beet sugar factory that at
La Grande. Capital has been looking
over the Eastern Oregon Hold and sev
eral localities have been found where
thtf growing of sugar beets on a largo
scale would prosper if there were ade
quate facilities for getting tho beets
to a factory, uui uio almost utter
lack of railroad transportation is an
obstale too great to be overcome in
moat instancces. Tho department re
port Indicates that there is prospect of
tho installation of a sugar factory at
Enterprise, though no details aro given
and tho whole matter Istlll undecided.
Washington, like Oregon, has but a
single sugar factory at this time.
That ono is at Waverly. Thero aro a
number of places in Eastern Washing
ton, however, whero the building of
sugar factories is seriously contemplat
ed, among there North Yakima, Spo
kane and Thorp. Tho department re
ports that companies have been formed;
In some cases contracts have been
mado with the farmers to grow sugar
beets; considerable capital has been
subscribed: concessions have been
tentatively secured from towns, such
as freo bulldlnc sites, remission of
taxes for a period of years and other
privileges. All these project are
simply awaiting development or moro
opportune conditions.

APPLES IN DEMAND.

Horticultural society, who has Den
traveling through the East studying
the apple situation, both as to produc
tion and market bad a conference to
day with Secretary Wilson and other
Agricultural department official?. He
was assured on every hand that there
Is no danger of overproduction of ap
ples In Oregon; that the Eastern mar
ket is almost unlimited, but before the
trade can assume large proportions
means must be devised for getting
Oregon apples into the Eastern market
at less cost to the consumer.
They aro in great demand for their
quality, but the price la almost prohib
itive. Mr. Newell Bays after weeks of
study that higher prices in the East
arise from tho fact that apples pass
through too many hands before reach
ing the consumer and therefore pay too
many profits. He believes this can be
overcome. ,
