To i!io Kdiler:
1 have watched the Mnil Tribune
vei-y closely for everything that him
been sniil ertiiiiiin: to the srewinj: of
sttfnr beets ami buildinjj n o.tghr fac
tory in loj:ue Ittvcr valley. Think
ing it may help to break the scales
from the eyes of some land owner
uho is standing in the wav of hi own
prosperity, ns well as thnt of the
whole flof-no Iliwr valley, by roftis
iiifr to kirh tip his ncrcnuo lor stmnr
beet), wish to stnte just one in
fduneo out of ninny in tliis vicinity.
tjS 1(10(1 Profit Itcnllco
A friend of mine here raised seventy-three
acres of miar beets this
year, and he told me yesterday that
Ins lieet erop netted nhovo all ex
pense $1000 from the Nevcnty-three
ncrcs, or nearly $flft per aere. lie
further said that the other crnpi
;:rnwii on the mii'dt timely paid cost
of piodnetioa. I was at his place
wIihh the beets were licinjj harvested,
and while one field averaged twenty
nine Inns per acre, a much lnrper
field was so choked with Ih'rmudn
urn km and other weeds that the nv
diajfo yield was greatly reduced. He
expects to June the weeds subdued bv
the time' one more clop of beet? has
been grown, so Ji;it the yield can be
largely incren-cd
All lllicd .atioe
This crop wan grnwji without irri
gation in n eoiintry where every year
is a drouth year as compared with
llou'ite Uivcr valley, for the normal
laint'nll here is imly about one-half
that of your valley. The eiop of
beets I have been writing of was
. grown on land owned bv the I.imon
eria eompnny and eerytliin;; is done
by hired labor.
The llnyue Uiver valley rancher
should be able to do even better,
where he has hi, own familv to as-si--t
in enltinitin mid hane-tin the
orop.
Kend a Delegation
I think Mr. dates should -.elect a
committee from the men who ate
most prominent in opposing- the .sugar
beet proposition and end them down
here, where they can have the evi
dence at firt hand. If what they
eonld see and learn would not con
vince Hi cm of the advantage a beet
sugar facial v would be to the Kogue
Jtiver valley, nothing would do it.
1 cannot believe that the people of
the Valley will remain so dead to their
liert intorcts as to let the two great
est opportunities that have ever come
to them, namely, it ligation and the
beet sugar plant, fail for lack of sup
port. C. W. I'OTTF.U.
