Show Gunnison Valley Factory Sacking Six Hundred Bags Sugar Daily The first bag of "Extra Fine Sugar" Sug-ar" to be produced by the Gunnison Valley sugar factory was expressed to the main office at Salt Lake yesterday yester-day morning. The hag will be kept as a souvenir and will be plr.eed on ovhitolion and as an advertisement of what Gunnison Valley, the pride of Southern Utah, can prodaie. With every part of the machinery working to perfection, beets flowing in in great quantities and pure, crystal crys-tal white sugar being turned out at ;he rate of nearly fiOO bags daily, the outlook for the first year's campaign is most encouraging. At present the factory is slicing an average of 300 tons of beets daily and by the first, of the coming month this will be increased in-creased to 4 00 tons each day. Not. alone are the beets coming in most satisfactorily, but the yield is highly encouraging and with the factory fac-tory in operation for a little more than a week, the result is that about 2500 bags of sugar have been stored in the big warehouse. By the first of the coming week, however, when the automatic sack sewer is put in commission and a few minor details corrected, there will be a. steady flow of sugar from the factory to the warehouse. |
