There fore, farmers wishing to grow beets this year must apply for an acreage allotment. Most sugar beet growers have already made their request for acreage. To those who have not yet requested an acreage for this year, they should make their request at the Nyssa, Oregon or Nampa, Idaho office of The Am algam ated Sugar Company or with the Sugar Company fieldman in your area. Requests for beet acreage must be made by not later than February 1, 1954, as after this date acreage requests can not be considered. Remember, the dead line is February 1, 1954.
