HOW IT WORKED IN OHIO. Paulding Banker Shows How Sugar Beet Culture Increased Prosperity. That the'eefnbUshment of the sugar beet industry in oijio will result in an

i Increase of ffiOOOUgOQO ia the value of ' farm hinds in the state !y the eud Of the present year is the stare meut of C : EL Alleu. a banker of Pauldirg, O. 1 "Ohio and Indiana should Income as great producers of sugar as Mi higau." said Mr. Allen, "and they will unless j hostile legislation by congrena inter1 feres with the natural development of i this industry. In Faulding county ! alone, although the beet sugar facto: jf (here has beeu in operation only tv. o years, the value of farm property has

increased $ooo,000 as a result of the introduction of sugar beet culture. Another result has been the investment of $ö,t)00,OUO or more in other beet sugar factories in this section of the state within the pent ye:ir. which in turn will vastly Increase the value of the

J farm laud surrounding them, adding $20,IKJU.O(M) or more to the agricultural

wealth of this region. "Aside from the direct tinancial re-

f turns that have followed the estate

lishment of the sugar beet industry iu Ohio, there are numerous other beneü Is

nh, though not so direct, are no ju porta nt. To obtain good results peet culture farmers hare found

it necessary to put more hand labor on the laud. The result is that thousands of men. women and children are being taken from the overcrowded sections of the cities of the state and set to work on the land, a back to the farm movement that is of real practical value. "This increased tillage of the soil is the very best and, in fact, the only effective means of overcoming the weeds that are the chronic enemies of the farmer, choking his crops and exhausting his soil. Besides all this, we have found that every other crop raised upon land that has been put into sugar beets shows a greatly increased yield. "Upon a piece of land that had been In leets the previous season I myself raised seventy bushels of oats to the acre, while across the fence one of my neighbors, on exactly the same kind of land, got a yield of not quite fifty. Last year on another piece of land that had been used fw sugar ieets I grew fifty bushels of wheat to the acre whereat he ordinary crop is between twenty-two and twenty-live bushels. Farmers have learned so well that sugar land increases the yield of oats that when they are in conversation among themselves and one reports a yield of from seventy to ninety bushels an acre the other will reply: 'You have raised it on sugar beet land. That accounts for it' 4,This year there will be taken from Ohio cities to the country to work ia the beet fields over 5.000 people, and yet this Industry is only beginning ia the state. Ohio ought to have twentyfive beet sugar factories, and Indiana, equally favorably located and with land peculiarly fitted to this crop, should have an equal number."

PLANT THAT IMPROVES SOIL.

The Sugar Bent Increases Yield of Other Crops. How sugar beets improve the fertility of the soil and increase the yield of all crops grown in rotation with them is explained in tin National Magazine by Truman Gr. Palmer, Who has spent the past ten years in studying agricultural methods in Europe and America. "The sugar beet being a deep rooter, says Mr. Palmer, "a prerequisite to its culture is that the soil be stirred to a depth of ten to fourteen inches. The tender beetlet having to undergo the shock of thinning soon after it comes up in order to leave but one beet to a place, it demands a well prepared, mellow seed ld. Gathering the sugar, in Its leaves from the atmosphere by the aid of the liuht nnd storing'it up in the roots, It will not thrive if the light is cutoff through being shaded by weeds, and their eradication means not only a further stirring of the soil by cultivation and hoeing, but they are removed before going to seed, thus leaving weedless fields for succeeding crops. Being plowed out in autumn gives an extra fall plowing. a which leaves the land in condition to absorb instead of shed the fall and winter rains and store up the moisture for the following season's crop. With the removal of the main root myriads of fibrous roots are broken off and left in the soil to an average of a ton to the acre, and in rotting they not only deposit humus In the lower strata of soil, but leave minute channels through which it Incomes aerated and henee fertile. The roots of subsequent crops follow these interstices and draw nutriment from two and three times the depth of soil formerly reached, and hence the farmers double and treble their soil output without increasing their acreage."

Beet Pulp as Cattle Food.

Beet pulp that is, what remains of the beet after the sugar has been extracted has beMi rrovl to be the finest feed yet diicovered for milk cows and for fattening cattle, sheep and other farm animals. TWl Is true whether the pulp Is fed in Its wet state as it comes from the factory or
