UTAH AND IDAHO To the people of Utah belongs the distinction of being pioneers not only In exploring and settling this Western country, but of, establishing the sugar Industry of the inter-mountain states. In 1852 the Mormon Church brought machinery to Utah from France for the purpose of making .sugar. This machinery was hauled' across the plains by. ox-teams at a time when the cost of hauling freight from the Missouri Mis-souri River 4o Salt Lake City was 1500.00 per ton. Ellas Morris was In charge of this shipment from Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, to its destination. desti-nation. . The machinery was set up in the Southeastern outskirts of Salt Lake City, and it is because of this fact that this locality Is now known a Sugar House. , The people at that time failed In their efforts to' produce sugar . from beets, although for a year or two some molasses was produced. It was not, however, until 1889 that attention was given to the establishment of the beet sugar Industry In Utah, Arthur 8tay- ner being one of the pioneer en-Spanish en-Spanish Fork in about 1886 or 1887 to Spanish Fork In about 2886 or 188? to produce from, sorghum cane, He made sufficient brown sugar to secure a territorial bounty; otherwise that enterprise en-terprise was also a failure. Then he turned hie attention-to beets end-was largely responsible for Investigation and formation of a beet sugar Com pany. In 1889 the Utah Sugar Company was organized In Salt Lake City, with Ellas Morris, President; Francis Arm strong, Vice-President; James Jack, Secretary; Arthur Stayner. Treasurer, and Thomas R. Cutler, Manager. Anions: others who were ' active In fostering this Industry were Wllford Woodruff, Heber J. Grant George Q. Cannon. R, K. Thomas. Henry Wal lace. H. Dlnwoodey, L. O. Hardy, and Moses Toaioner. All of the difficulties of pioneering were encountered by this organisation, but with the assistance of President Woodruff and other, officials of the L. D, S. Church, the Company finally erected a factory at Lehl, Utah. The corner stone was laid on December 26. 1890. with brass bands and due ceremony, for the first sugar factory in the inter-mountain country; the first sugar factory In the world to pry duce augar from Irrigated beets. This factory was completed In the fall of 1891 and . sugar was, produced in November of that year. It has operated oper-ated every year since with success. President Wllford Woodruff tooan active part la establishing this Indus-rr Indus-rr and vis nresent at Lehl when the first sugar was sacked, and alUieugb nearly ninety years of age, be snowed a keen Interest in the various processes process-es of manufacture. It Is Interesting to note that the first bag of sugar produced In Utah Is now in the museum of the Bureau of Information -on the Temple Block at Salt Lake City. It was formerly the property of the late Spencer Clawson, he having offered 50.00 for the first aack of sugar manufactured In Utah. The men who actually- made the first sugar in Utah are worthy of historical recognition. They were pioneers in very deed. Mr. E. F. Dyer was Factory Superintendent; v. a. Granger, Assistant Superintendent; George Austin. Agricultural Superin tendent; M. W. Ingalls, Master Mechanic; James H. Gardner. Sugar Boiler. 8otne of the difficulties these men met with and overcame . wiere well niah heart-breaking,, and atan out of the way place such as Lehl If anything went wrong It took all the Ingenuity they possessed to get things fixed up. - Mr: M.W; Ingalls. who is still with the Utah-Idaho 8ugar Company, Com-pany, tells how the lime kiln, engine broke down one night and lie found that it would Uke-aeveral days to repair re-pair it. They couldn't think of shutting shut-ting down the factory, so remembering remember-ing that threshing was going on in a nearby field, In the middle of the night the mechanics went over and secured the threshing, machine. and lined it. up In place of the lime kiln engine and the whole plant was operating before morning. . . Neither did the loyal farmers of those early days, who Frew beets for this new enterprise have the advantage advan-tage of experience and machinery common to their successors of today. Growing sugar beets was a new proposition pro-position and for the first two or three years they did not average over five or six tons to the acre, as compared. With twelve to fifteen tons nowdays. The original beet sheds were cover ed, and at one time more beets came In than the sheds could hold and were, therefore, piled In the open. However, How-ever, there was great nnxlety for fear they would freese. To prevent this h large- gang of men were set to work cutting bull rushes along the Jordan River, which were woven Into a huge mat and thrown over the pllo of beets to protect them from the cold. N'ows- days beets must be piled for weeks In the onen each year In tremendous Quantities. , ... t:. When the Lehl factory was built the United States government was paying a bonus of two cents prr pound for a'l sugar produced In" the railed ' State.' and the Territory of Utah also offered a bonus of one cent fr pound for all sugar made in Utah. NWwIthstnndlng the Inducements, the first two years of the operations of the I.phl factory were a decided failure, except as a matter of education. The first year's production wa only 10.9-49 bags of sugar; the second year about 15.000 baits were produced, as the beetonlvi averaeed about 10 percent sugar with about 77 per cent purify. Abrtiit this flm. however, the people began to reallro that thla new lndufrv va a good thing for the community, and the- 'V..,i! V I OF THE third year the output waa 47,000 bags. Seven, years elapsed, however, before another mill was built at Ogden. In 1898. Five ysara more before the first mill In Idaho war erected near Idaho Falls, in 1903. From these small beginnings sugar production has grown until It la now one of the most Imporant factors in the West There is hardly a community of these inter-mountain inter-mountain States that doea not benefit either directly or Indirectly from the beet augar Industry. At, the present ,. time there. ... are twenty-seven sugar factories In Utah and Idaho, located as follows: Year Factories Lehl, Utah Ogden, Utah Logan, Utah .

Nevertheless, the crying need, economically, of the industry In Utah and Idaho It more beets, more beets. The twenty-seven factories now built could easily work two and one-half million tons of beets In ninety days, from which should be produced six and one-fourth million bags of sugar. If sufficient beets were grown for the present mills, Utah and ; Idaho could furnish thirty per cent of the country's crop of beet sugar.
