Beets Bring Many Millions To Our Western Growers Growers in Utah and Ida ho Received Approxi mately $7,400,000 for 1936 Crop. Salt Lake Tribune In the fall of the year the rumble of thousands of trucks rolling toward huge factories that form industrial islands in an otherwise instinctive ly rural environment is heard throughout many sections of Utah and Idaho. The trucks are loaded to cap acity with sugar beets. They are bound for refining mills, where the thousands of tons of beets they carry will be turned into millions of pounds of sugar for nation-wide consumption. They will make the homeward journey as "empties," but pockets of their drivers will not be void. The rumble of the trucks spells dollars and more dollars for the farmers of the areas in which the beets were grown, for sugar beet growing in the intermountain coun try means a ready market for the grower, an assured and stable in come and a real aid in solving the problems of soil fertilization. That Utah and Idaho appreciate the value of this great crop is seen Bronchial Coughs in the thousands of acres devoted to its production. That they have pro fited by this production is seen in the fact that beets grown during the past have brought into their coffers millions of dollars, with pro fits swinging upward almost year by year. Receive $7,400,000 Restoring to cold statistics that need, however, no automatic stoker to warm them for the beet growers, t Is shown that the crop raising farmers of the two states will have received approximately $7,400,000 for their 1936 production, according to estimates of the United States de partment of agriculture. This is $1,833,000 in excess of the 1935 pay ments to the growers. The sugar beet production of Utah during 1930 Is placed at 511,000 tons by department of agriculture fig ures, The Idaho figure is set at 724.000 tons. Beehive state growers produced 506,000 tons In 1935 and Gem state growers 562,000 tons, in dicating increases in production in 1936 of 5000 to 162.000 tons, respect ively. The Utah beet sugar farmers were paid $2,570,000 for their crop in 1935. They will receive $3,014,900 for the 1936 output ,if departmental esti mates are correct. The Idaho grow ers received $2,956,000 In 1935 and.are figured to be paid $4,344,000 for the 1936 crop. The average sugar beet output in Utah from 1928 to 1932 was 611,000 tons, and in Idaho 449.000 tons.

At the Nyssa Pharmacy figures by 275,000 tons, while the Utah output drops behind 100,000 tons. $2,000,000 Distributed More than $2,000.000 were dis tributed by four sugar manufactur ing and beet purchasing companies to farmers for their 1936 beets last November. Utah growers were paid at the rate of $5.25 per ton and Ida ho growers received $5.50 per ton. Payments were $1 per ton higher than in 1935. Additional payments to be made later under sugar produc tion agreements will raise the Utah rate to $5.90 per ton and the Idaho rate to $6 per ton. Sugar manu|icturing' executives recently declared that the new era of activity in industry and business and better feeling in regard to the future of commerce and agriculture as a whole indicated a prosperous era in the beet sugar and beet grow ing industry. They assert that it is a settled fact in the economic scheme that the beet sugar industry is both wanted and needed and that it is supplying a definite and in creasing demand in industrial and domestic markets for its products. Profitable Industry The Dick Scctt family, who have befn living near the Lawe H.ll place on Boulder Creek, the past four or five months making cord wo;d. had the mlsfortdne to lose their cabin and all contents by fire. Nothing was saved except the clothing which they were wearing. Mr. Scott, his father- in-law, Mr. Carter; and brother-in- law, were all away at the time. Mrs. Scott was at the cabin of her sister across the creek, and the house was burned to the ground when they dls covered it. They moved to the Iron side cam]) jrcund on Wednesday. ,'r Scott Is employed at the A. E. Mo’ than ranch. Mrs. I.oyd Judy who has been at the home of her parents Mr. and Mrs. W. R.

On Thursday it snowed very hard with a fierce gale blowing, drifting snow on all roads and highways un til about noon. After that it turned much warmer with a wet heavy snow falling and a Chinook wind. The first thaw of the winter helped to clear away some of the snow. The Fred Fish family have moved into their new home which they have, been remodeling the past few/ months. Mr. and Mrs. Marsters, par ents of Mrs. Fish moved to the Clar ence Boor house formerly occupied by the Dick Scott family who moved into the cabin vacated by the Mar sters. All social activities.

Disease Resistant Development of white fly resistant seed has made it possible to grow beets in certain heretofore affected areas. No longer does the grower need to fear the ravages of this one time serious blight. Crops averag ing 14 tons to the acre have been produced in once affected sections through use of this resistant seed. Sugar beet growing has the ad vantage of freedom from many of the disadvantages experienced by the grower of other crops—freedom of need for grading, packing, ware housing and similar problems. A marked advantage also accrues in the time element, all in addition to a marked degree of certainty and adequacy of financial returns. Utah was one of the first states to begin beet growing.
