Chief Agriculturist Austin of the Utah-Idaho Sugar Co., will be urged to come from Salt Lake City, and the culture o f sugai beets will be a subject for free discussion. Farmers who have grown beets this year will tell how they have succeeded, and the public will hear why some farmers have harvested 28 tons of beets to the acre while others have failed of profitable yield.

The distribution of excursion tickets (free) will be under the direction of Mr. Austin and the field men of the sugar company.
