BULLETIN, -HOLLAND-ST. LJUIS SUGAR CO. _ TO [PROSPECTIVE BEET GROWERS DECATUR PLANT |

To clearly show the feeding value of the pulp of sugar beets, Wallace’s Farmer, of Des Moines, lowa, says in part: “Mr. C. A. Nelson, whom our dairy ’ readers will recognize as one of our 1 leading Holstein breeders, has for sev i eral years fed the wet beet pulp to his | cattle and sheep. They relish it and • eat large quantities of it daily. Somt of his cows, Mr. Nelson believes, eat i as much as GO to 100 pounds daily [ Pulp, he regards in much the same I : light as silage, although it seems to j be more watery than that feed. ‘Five hundred steers are being fed I at the factory (Waverly, Iowa), this j : year by Mr. Letts. These steers when j ! on full feed will each consume daily | about 120 pounds of pulp and four or I j five pounds of hay. About five hun . ! dred more steers are being fed in the j I neighborhood? AU beet growers have ; the privilege of hauling away free, i beet pulp to the amount of 80 per ■ cent of the tonnage of beets they [ brought in. To others the pulp is sold ! at 60 < ents per ton. Analyses give two j tons of pulp the same feeding values as | one ton of s>lage. Mr. Anttoult, who is three or four miles out of Waverly, has grown from five to fifteen acres of beets for sev eral years. He said that he would i grow- beets again next year. His great ! est objection was the expense of haul ing. ‘Do beets take your time when you ought to be cultivating your corn [crop?' was asked. He replied tha> , . there Was somewhat of a conflict be- | | tween the two crops, but that the time he spent in the beets brought him good money. ‘No, beets are not especially hard on the land,’ he said. He agreed wit hthe others who were asked regarding this point that oats and small grain after beets did better than after other crop and that corn '

seemed to be earlier. His greatest objection to the beet crop was the long haul. In this territory the average in come from beets was S7O. Besides this there are three or four tons of i beet tops, which are estimated as j having SI.OO per ton value for teedJ ing. Moreover there is the beet pulp that | may be secured at the factory; also: [ the small grains yield much better latter beets. Seveia". farmers went so I far as to say that the small grain doubled in yield when grown altei I beets. Beets root deeply and improve j the condition of the soil in much the i same manner as elover. The expense I of producing the crop in this regie;. [ was something like this; Fall plowing $ Luu i Harrowing, discing, planting. 2.00 I Seed, 20 lbs. at 10c 2.00 [ Drilling the seed 75 i Foreign hand labor 20.00 I Six horse cultivations 3.0" I Hauling (varies with distance and tonnage) ’ 6.00 Rent 5.00 Incidentals, depreciation and interest 1.00 Fertilizer, 125 pounds 1.7 C i Total $43.00 “Therefore the average net profit was something near $25 per acre. Th average income from an acre of corn , in this section (Iowa) is in the neigh I bothood of sl6, while the average cost of producing it was about $13.00, leaving a net profit per acre of about $3.6 If both sets of figures were approximately correct we find that it wiil take eight acres of corn to bring in-a much money as one acre of beets."
