Hietory of the
Induatry.
From the consular reports we
learn that to the son of a German
belongs the credit of the discovery
of sugar in the beet. Not only its
discovery, but the working out of
the problem of the profitable ex
traction of the aweet salt ns the
early chemist called it, is justly
claimed by the sturdy Germans.
It was in the year 1747 that the
beet, as a rival to the sugar cane,
made Ita debut. In that year Dr.
Andreas SigismuiH Marggraf,
professor of chemistry and mem
ber of the Berlin academy of
science, reported tohr Berlin acad
emy the process by which he had
been enable 'ta find sucar in the
beet, exactly like that extracted
from the sugar cane. But Marg
graf did not follow up 1iL dis
covery. This was' left to his pupil,
Franz Carl Achard. In 17'J9 Achard
addressed a petition to King Fred1
erick William III, a treatise on the
preparation of sugar from the beet
root, and prayed that as he had
spent fifteen years, with great dili
gence and cost to himself, in per
fectintr his process, that he be
irranted the exclusive right for ten
i years to produce beet augur, and
i that sufficient land be placed at
i
his disposal.
After searching examinations the
king granted n loan of f:iT),7C0, with
which Achard started in business
In March, 1802, the fir.t factory
began operations. Other factories
startetl in Kussia, in France and in
Prussia. But the Nanolenn wars
swept over the country and kcr
down the sugar development
In the winter of 180910 Achard i
factory was burned and he was left
heavily in debt. He succeeded,
however, in getting a release from
the king of the first loan of frWJO,
and secured a new loan of $14,280.
With this second loan he started a
school ovy the ashes of his first
factory, for practical instruction in
the beet-root sugar industry. This
school succeeded poorly, and
Achard dictLin 1821 with his cher
ished project still tin prosperous.
Napoleon encouraged theercction
of beet augar factories In France,
but with his downfall they fell.
One only, among all the factories
of France, succeeded in standing
while the others went down around
it Crespel Deliss, the owner of
this one factory, succeeded, and
till about 181H he was the authority
on all matters pertaining to the
beet sugar industry.
In 1837 Fruuce imposed a tax on
beet-root sugar. At that time there
were !Wi factories in France and l.r0
in Germany. Four years later Ger
many imposed a ta on beets them
selves, which system has worked
very satisfactorily.
Since 1840 the production of raw
sugar in Germany has doubled with
every decade. At that time the tax
was six mills per hundred pounds of
beets, and there was produced over
2l.MmV pounds of stmar. In 1"
the number o' factories was 331, pro
ducing lrr)O0,0U0,0C3 pounds of sugar
ami the tax was increased to l'fc
cents per hundred pounds of bee!,
