LAWRENCEBURG, IND. . 86 PROOF Sugar beet growers were urged last week at the annual Utah County Sugar Beet School at Spanish Span-ish Fork, to get their contracts signed immediately for 1954 acreage. acre-age. H. J. Sanders, South Utah district dis-trict manager for the Utah-Idaho Sugar Company, told more than 200 growers at the meeting his company is being pressed constantly con-stantly by all districts for new acreage for 1954, especially now that acreage is being restricted. He advised that by getting contracts con-tracts signed and returned, grow ers would stand a better chance of maintaining their acreage In future years if acreage allotments are enforced by the government. Mr. Sanders also declared that growers need not be too concerned concern-ed about spring labor this year in view of the work done In past seasons by the mechanical thinners. thin-ners. "If growers would spend as much time learning to operate machines mach-ines as they spend with their labor, la-bor, they would soon have their labor problems solved", said Mr. Sanders.

UTAH Supply of the beet fields, Boin Tolman, Salt Lake City, general agricultural superintendent of the sugar company, com-pany, expressed the importance of maintaining close spacing of beets to keep tonnages high. "Unless your beet count after machine thinning is more than 150 beets In 100 feet of row you should not have any beets removed remov-ed by hand labor, but should use the hand labor only for removing weeds by long handled hoeing", said Mr. Tolman. Mr. Tolman told of some growers grow-ers who had excellent results with mechanical thinning by leaving more than 150 beets per 100 ft of row. He also said that if growers grow-ers are determined to mechanize they can make a success of mechanical mech-anical thinning. To Illustrate this point, he told of the new Columbia Colum-bia Basin area In Washing where his company recently opened a factory. Growers in that area were faced with an acute labor shortage and had to rely almost entirely on mechanical thinning in 1953. The growers successfully completed their mechanical thinning with out lowering their high yields. In many cases, he said, mechanically thinned beets out-yield hand thinned thin-ned ones because of closer spacing. spac-ing. Mr. Tolman said that 3000 acres of beets were completely thinned by machine In 1953 In the Utah-Idaho Utah-Idaho Sugar Company, districts, and that 30,000 acres had considerable consid-erable amount of mechanical thinning thin-ning to supplement hand thinning. He predicted that In three or four years farmers would look back on hand thinning of beets "like we look back on hand harvesting now." Regarding the ajilication of fertilizer Mr. Tolman said that the procedure of putting commerleal fertlier on beet fields is not as Important as "getting It applied". He said that tests Indicate many more advantages of applying ljoth nitrogen and phosphorus fertlizers before planting, however. Also speaking at the meeting, J. Rex MacKay, Taylorsville, Utah, president of Utah Sugar Beets Growers Associating, told of the need for adjusting the U. S. Sugar Act of 1948. He said that the present sugar act does not give domestic (U.S.) sugar producers any consideration for annual in creases in sugar consumption In the United States. The sugar act, as established In 1918, limits U.S. sugar beet and sugar cane prod ucers to 1, 800,000 short tons aa year. The consumption above that quota, as estimated and fixed by j the Secretary of Agriculture be fore the beginning of each year Is supplied by "off-shore", sugar, produced outside the continental U.S. The Secretary of Agriculture estimated that total consumption of sugar for 195-1 In the United States to be 8 million short tons, said Mr. MacKay. Mr. MacKay said that since 1943 the annual consumption of sugar in the United States had Increased one million short tons. Under the present sugar act all advantages coming from such increases go to "off-shore" producers. He urged action to modify the present act enough to permit promotion pro-motion increases in the United States in accordance with annual increases in consumption of sugar. Karl H. Alleman, Spanish Fork, president of the Utah County Su gar Beet Crowers. Ass'n, told the group that recent research indi cates the old Idea of eliminating sugar from tr.e diet to control over weight in human brings is not rizht. The research shows that overweight is a result of overeat-j in 2 and that overweight is caused j by hunger brought on by lack of j sugar in the blood. He said the sugar industry is now advertising in leading magazines of the nation to lace this information before the public. j At the meeting the fji. owing board members installed by the Utah County Eeet Growers Ass'n.

M. M. Steele returned Monday from Los Angeles, where he had ac companied two cars of fat hogs for market. He experienced some hard luck entoute there, as the tracks had been washed out at different points, causing several de lays and eight days had clasped before getting them on the market The shrinkage in weight as a consequence was near 2000 pounds and this together with the expense of feeding enroute counted up considerable con-siderable against the profits.
