A JUN 14 1947 . v> > X ä& 3Ä > ^ NO. 21 Amalgamated Is Increasing Size O f Piling Area Feeding Operations Mov ed; Nampa Factory Improved / Removal of residences and other buildings and part of the stock yards to new locations on the Am algamated Sugar company property have been completed. The livestock feeding operations were moved to a point near the river to make greater room for piling the increased tonnage of beets that will be harvested this fall from the greatest beet acreage ever planted in the district. Work in addition to the actual moving of the buildings and yards is yet to be done before the pro ject will be completed. An improvement and construction program which will increase the sugar beet slicing capacity of the Nampa sugar factory by 15 per-cent to 2500 tons daily, was announced by H. A. Benning, president of the company. The installation of a, continuous diffuser, similar to the one which operated last year in the company’s Nyssa factory, is well under way and will be ready when the 1917- 43 campaign begins in late Septem ber. With Nyssa’s daily slicing capacity now geared at 2750 tons, the two plants will cut 5250 tons dally. Mr. Benning said that a record crop in excess of 1,000.000 tons of beets is expeced in the Nampa-Nys- sa district, and it is believed both Nyssa and Nampa factories will each process over 1,000.000 bags <100 pound units) of sugar in the fall and winter campaign. The continuous diffuser replaces the old conventional type battery which has been used since the early beginning of the* manufacture of sugar from sugar beets. The proc ess of filling and emptying the old battery cells was mainly a labori ous hand operation, which .required seven men on each eight hour shift or 21 men per day. The neto dif- fusor is operated by one man per shift whose main duty is to watch the' quality of the beet eossetfs, read temperature gauges and regu late the slicing rate. SCHOOL ELECTION TO BE HELD MONDAY Two candidates Glenn Dowers and H. A. Diven, have been nomi nated for the position of director on the Nyssa school board and will be voted on at the annual el ection to be held June 16.
