US. j INCORPORATED g A delegation of Sugar licet lioost- icrs from all parts of the valley at tended a gathering at Grants Pass i Saturday as guests of the progressive citizens of that city. !n the morning I the party was taken through the i splendid new factory said to be one of the finest sugar beet factories in the country and a practical demonstration of the businesB of making sugar was i given. It is safe to say that the factory In Its extent, equipment and lmprcs slvcncss surpassed the most sanguine expectations of the visitors. The en tire process of sugar making was ex-. plained by Manager Alex Nlblcy and Ills associates, the visitors being led through the tremendous establish ment from the beet bins where the sugar beets are gathered to the large store house where fine granulated sugar ready for the market Is stored in hundred pound sacks. The building is as clean and sani tary as an operating room. Employes dressed In white arc busy at the var ious machines, chain lifts and oleva itors are busy contlnously carrying up i beets, convoying pulp, and carrying jtne bags to tho piles in the store house. The process Is too complicat ed to describe In this article but even 'lo a layman It Is most Interesting and , tho general air of efficiency and fin ancial power most Impressive, j The visitors were given a dinner at the Commercial club and churches of 1 1 do city and In tho afternoon a meet ! ing wa3 held at the Tabernacle, ad dressed by Alex Nlblcy and others. Several growers gavo their exper iences in beet culture and a general appeal was made for the entire Rogue I Uiver valley to secure an extensive Irrigation system so that the factory may be made a success. The local neets are of good quality giving about 150 pounds of sugar for every ton of beets, but the company is convinced that without Irrigation successful beet I growing In southern Oregon is Impos sible. Tho visitors from Medford and the outhern part of the county wero most 1 enthusiastic over what Grants Pass has accomplished and were united in their determination to do all In their power to secure an extension of irri gation and get a sugar beet factory In this part of the valley. John Mills of Talent won the title ;f the "banner su-nr beet grower'' at the beet growers' celebration held in Grants Pass Saturday. He report ed n crop of 28 tons per acre, yield ing a gross return of .flol per acre. the cash outlay beiiv only $li.T9 per acre. Mr. Mills' experience was one of those related at the big meeting held in the tabernacle ns n feature of the sugar day celebration. OBITUARY .1. M.
