The beets which the Standard
Beet Sugar company is working up
at its factory near Ames are. prov
iug to be in rather poor coudition
Because the company was not able
to commence operating its plant as
early as expected it was compelled
to store a large quantity of beets in
the beet house and silos. During
the warm weather in January these
beets thawed out and the percent
age of sugar in them was very
materially reduced. Beets that
freeze and stay frozen do not lose
any of the sugar but when they
freeze and thaw they are apt to he
spoiled for sugar. The factory is
