SUGAR BEETS AS A CASH CROP. (Michigan Farmer.) My experience with sugar beets has ! been varied. But from uncertain re--1 suits at first, wli-.cli I find came from ignorance and prejudice, I have corns to put them r.rs: on my farm as n , money . in fact, 1 believe if the 1 fertility of the lane is to be taken Imo . consideration, they are the only mon- , ey crop I can afford to raise. In common with the majority of this community, 1 Had to learn that the conservation of the fertility of our soil depended upon a rotation of crops. In this rotation in Michigan sugar beets have their place. They are clearing moie cash to the acre than any other la. tn crop we van raise he e. Besidesthe money returns, the tops furnish just the green feed needed by cattle and other stock early in the winter, affording results similar to those obtained from ensilage. Dairy products ( are materially increased, and al! stock ( I put into good condition to endure our 1 severe Michigan winter weather. 1 j In addition to the above we have indirect results not so often .e.-og : J The hand wo; k done on the < c e: agitates ail weeds ami weed seeds. The deep plowing o' the sugar beet lifter in the fall acts, especially on clay ground, as a sub-soil-er, renewing the fertility of the field. Without further plowing we then have a ready surface prepared for oats pr barley, with which we may seed down , to clover. FARM- J'. ISO acres tor rent, 2ti miles; east of Monroe.

In this community the sugar beet has been a valuable educator. Every farmer who raises sugar beets, learns from them-the value of thorough cultivation, and applying that knowledge to his other crops the effect on the farm as a wnoie is soon noticeable. Here, the sugar beet is the mortgage lifter. That course of the Michigan farm seems at last to be about to disappear. Already farm buildings are improving. One woman and her children near here put in sugar bee s and bought a piano. A neighbor ot mine uses them to keep his sons oh the arm, allowing each one a certain number of acres for beets for his own. School 1)oas near here put in a patch of sugar beets as an experiment in at riculture, and outdoor exercise between Hase ball and foot ball seasons, and were surprised at finding them selves school boy capitalists in the j '>n. i myself am using sugar be-ts ’• ! buy land. Las- spillr.. etui.'. I bought j eighty acres waste stamp land whim; ; bad lain uselet-s-, for centuries, i congress will not interfere " ith om | beet business here. I can dear tb'ai land ai.l pay for it with sugar beets. Ten months after buying it we delivered the beets produced on the first twenty acres to go under the plow. The value of the crop was about $1,500. If any one can give such results from any other farm crop, I should be pleased to hear from him. “MACK.” Saginaw Co., Mich.
