Cat load after carload has reached the factory during the past week and an extra large force of bIiovcI ors aro ke t busy unloading. For several days last week about 200 wagon loads cnine.in and were unloaded. Theio arc from Lehi fnrmcis vlio aro digging as fast as they can and report that the crop is turning out well, many reporting as high a8 20 tons per a:rc. This rush will probably continuue for ten days or two week.8 longer. This has been an i leal fall for the sugar beet, in fact it has been an excellent year and no bettor season could be found anywhere on earth for this crop than we have had here. Such an excellent showing will surely mean more factories for Utah . Though thcro has been a constant stream of beets into the sheds there has been another ono out into the factory and every hour since Sept, 8 tho beets have been tunbling oVer each other down the flumes eager to reach tho sugar Backs. Since the start 18,000 tons have been made into sugar and every 24 hours tho pilo ia lessened over 400 toiiB, The record lor tho past week is ; Monday 460 tona, Tuesday 438jtons, Wednesday 451 tona, Thursday 420 tons, Friday -lCt tons, Saturday, 445 tons, iunday, 431 tons.

Theee mothers are tho bent beots which coino to tho factory and particular caro is taken ia their selection. It possible Supt. Valloz ''ntendh to get about 300 tons which he will set out for feel on ground especially especial-ly prepared last spring. This is a much larger amount than ever selected for seed before and will mean considerable extra work nest summer. Supt, Vnllez is pleased over the decision de-cision of tho board to mako a number of iiuprorements in tho factory next year which will enable them to work more beets. These changes can be easily made mid will be a great benefit. This will give the farmers a chance to increase in-crease their acreage and will moan several thousand tons of beet) more for the seaBou'B run. Mr. Valloz cau not elate at present just what those changes will be but will remedy all the weak points . 1 Tho factory people aro nnxiouH to hear ot the Ogden factory but air information comes from private sources aatha papers never say a word about it.
