Show MEET HL'OAll. The manufacture of beet sugar is an Industry that is growing in popular favor in this country, and it is to be conducted on an extensive scale at various var-ious points. We notice also that Canada Can-ada is to have a very large plant in the province of Ontario. That this industry indus-try can be profitably carried on in Utah there is not the least doubt, and we understand that arrangements are now being made to establish a large factory. This means the employment of a large number of persons, and a splendid home market for tho thrifty beet, which can be raised in great abundance in Utah soil. We should have at least a half dozen sugar factories, as there is a home market for the product. The manufacture Of sugar from beets is by no means an experiment. It has been a successful industry for years in Germany, and there is every reason to believe that it can bo made more profitable profit-able In the United States. There is now "nearly completed a sugar factory at Grand island, Nebraska, Nebras-ka, which cost $500,000. It is equipped with the very best machinery, and will be ready to handle this year's crop of beets. It has been erected by eastern capitalists who havo made the manufacture manu-facture of beet sugar a study, and consequently con-sequently they know what they are doing. We would suggest to the parties contemplating the erection of a sugar actory in Utah to make a visit to Oram! Island and inspect the great Oxuard factory at that place. |
