One of North Platte's most pro
gressive citizens is ot the opinion
that by our people now taking hold
vigorously it will be possible for
this city to secure the erection of a
beet sugar factory. He has been in
correspondence with eastern cap
italists interested in the subject,
and is of the idea that by taking
hold of the matter and pushing it,
the accomplishment will not be dif
ficult. This industry is obtaining
such a foothold in the country that
every one should be awTare of its im
portance, and it is self-evident that
the first factories started can be
made, with proper management, to
grow tne strongest, 'mere is no
place on earth where the sugar beet
can be grown so advantageously as
in the irrigated district of the great
Platte valley,
