"The average American consumes

eighty-two pounds of .sugar each ye:ur

and onlv ten pounds ot that ration are now produced in this country. The farmers 'of the country should keep that money at home in other words, put it in their own pockets." The foregoing statement appears in a bullet In which the Department of Agriculture has just issued reviewing tho proKH'ss of the beet sugar industry during the pant year. Tho report proceeds to point out that while the production of sugar from beets has advanced very rapidly, more than 5,000,000 tons oi boots having been grown last season, 2,000,000 acres additional should bo devoted to this crop In order to produce at home the sugar now purchased from abroad. This is a subject oi' particular interest to Indiana for tho reason that this state lies in tho center of one of tho must important boot sugar producing sections of the country. Not on'y have repeated tesls in sugar buöt growing demonstrated that Indiana Boll is adapted to tho production of this valuable crop, but tho successful operation during tho past season of tho stale's first beet; sugar factory has proved it conclusively. Although tho season was an unfavorable one and most of tho farmers growing beets

3H AN (DIANA ßütlAU WHKT.lfllCM). were unfamiliar with llio handling of this new crop, tho results obtained by the new plant at DecatiLrNjhow that Indiana i?4 capablo of maintaining a beet sugar factory liw every county, throughout a large portion of the stale at leant, and that tho slato could easily produce not only all the sugar required for humot consumption, but also, if neeor.su ry, could grow aud manufa'turo half of all the sugar required by tho Culled Stales. Some figures from tho actual operations of tho beet sugar plant at Dotiuv durlm: the pat year will give foni) KiiggoMtlon of the possl bill ties of this Industry for Indiana. Aside from tho investment of $1,000,000 or more, which tho !!:tnt itself represents, the factory paid out to the farmers who grew boots about $550,000. Some $75,000 was paid out In wages to factory and Üohl upora lives. The railways oi' tho state received from the transportation of boots, sugrnr and supplies over $100,000. while considerable sums were distributed for limestone, cotton bagging nnd other articles required in tho prooe of : ::umfaeture. Thus about tli ret qu ü -tors of a million dollars was dls!rl!n" ! ' V-'Lrh various channels

tvy a n result of tho of n single beet sugar

fa t i v wi Iwiniers of the state. A ; Ui ; : t!i" estimates of the statists. ; I bmvjius it Washington the !Hhi1o of Indiana consume over 100,000 tons of sugar a year for which they pay $i:l.."VHO0D or more. Previous to this year ' all of this money Avent OUt.Ide the state, most 6f it to tho great trust rofiueries of the eastern seaboard. M-st of it still goes there.

Indiana produced from , only enough sugar for her home population all would go into the various

channr of home Industry, and it tt'OsuY ike aejjrj,dÜIej:eiice of S2u.ÖöTU? "IB rss titüciq T)annice or iHo state. That Is only one. and the less Im portaut, of the beneficial results that would follow the utilization of a comparatively small portion of Indiana's farm lamis for the production of the sugar, which the people of the state are consuming in yearly increasing quantities. Of still greater valu uotild be its effect An adding tremen dously to the farm wealth of the state by t rrrasing th yit!i of other crops grown In rotation with sugar beets. Experience in countries like France and Germany, where sugar beets have been grown for many years on a Urge

Of l.üli. : eslai';s?:

scale, show that from land which la 'planted to this crop one year in four the yield of wheat, oats and other cereals grown in the intervening years is increased from 50 to SO per cent Kecords collected from American farmers in sections where beet culture has been followed for a number of years show thai the yield of other crops grown in rotation with beets has increased an average of M por cent. The yield of wheat on these lands advanced torn 20.0 bushels per acre to 43.3. Corn went up from 41.0 bushels to 53.1 and oats from '10.9 to GO.O bushels. The effect of the deep plowing and thorough cultivation required by sugar boots in boosting the yields of the other crops grown in successive years is all the inoro striking, as the yields obtained by those farmers beforo beginning sugar beet; cultivation woro well above the average. Applying this rate of increase to Indiana farms would moan that the agricultural wealth of the state would bo Increased S'Jo.OUO.OOO a year by tho genoral adoption of sugar beet; growing. Not only does the establishment of tho sugar beet industry add directly to tho wealth of the state from the money it brings In or keeps at homo

and Indirectly through the incroaso of other farm crops grown in rotation with beets, but It also adds greatly to tho market value of farm lands. In Michigan, where the sugar beet industry has reached such proportions that tho slate produces all its own sugar and ships a considerable amount to other markets, lis effect upon farm values und business prosperity in the sections surrounding tho factories is clearly marked. Many of the farms In those districts were heavily mortgaged ten years ago. Tho mortgages have been paid off so rapidly that today almost the only farms In the sugar country that are not debt, free are those that have been bought In tho. past few years by newcomers who want to share In tho prosperity (hat accompanies this crop. Hank deposits have gone up. Tho sellers of agricultural implements, dry goods men and dealers in all other lines tell of improved sales and report that collections of bills are made -with much greater promptness wherever the

sugar Industry has been Introduced.

0. A. Dugnn, a banker of Decatur, who has watched tho development of the Industry there, keeping careful record of busbies transactions in the city, hits estimated that the value of land In the city and on the surrounding farms for a distance of several miles has risen nearly 25 per rout since tho faclory's establishment. This Is not surprising in view of the fact, that; In ov

cry enso where the beet sugar Industry

has been established in any part; of tho

country a gain of from 30 to lüO nor

cent has taken place In land values

within three or four years. When the boot; sugar fact' r, at Paulding, 0 not far from Decalm. was started two

years ago tho same upward tendency of land price was observed, and It has been found ilirit the Increase since that time has ftalod more than S5.-

The adjoining s':ite of Michigan,

whose sull prod noes beets In no way suporlor to tkcwo t.f iudhna, now has seventeen 1 eot smiar factorlos. Indiana could supper; im I ;? than 100 if all the available ' m? tre used for the crop only one e.v in four. While this figure represent i .1 distant possibility, there is no reason why th stale should not have from fifteen to twenty-five such eslablushmonts Taklug the lowest figure. r,t!e factories would !

mean that when they were well under way the stale would hove a yearly income of $j..uxi.ono a year for sugar alone.
