Sugar companies contributes the following views vieve to the tho Christmas Now News beet sugar factories were operated In tho the United States State this year The amount of ot sugar to be bo mode by these factories Is tons against tons In the season leason of ot proving conclusively that not withstanding several million dollars have been Invested In new factories and making Improvements In old ones the past pass year the tho Industry Is not making ns liS rapid strides In this country as all was expected These Thoo conditions havo have been brought about by many Influences In some localities a perfect mania 1 existed a n fow rew ow years ago tot for together n a n lot of or factories because ono one or two factories In that sec see tion had proven a n success with this re reo through crowding together they thy havo Interfered with each ench others othera acreage to that extent that none of ot them can oon bo made remunerative which necessitates each ench going till tar ther titer anti aM farther out for Its beets This Thill also ilso means that someone must pay railroad transportation on these beets boete and aM n corresponding Increase in the tue number of ot agents and I V IV people to look after acter them This expense Invariably falls rails upon tho the factory people and not upon the farmer armor Therefore the tho crowding together of factories Is Isery very ery A good rule to fol rol low In the location ol or a n factor factory Is to decide In ones own mind minI that not more than 20 per par cent of or tho the available land Jan In the vicinity of the tho
