of the largest stockholders sold out at less than 4 per share and many other transfers took place at between 4 and 5 manager thos R cutler was in the city today and said to a news representative that the outlook was favorable for the th largest production this fall that the company had yet made the crop of beets was in splendid shape since the factory began operation in 1891 it had turned out
