Clrent Ileld of Action Scarcely Yet Touched Readers of Tin News aro alive to tho growth and development that is taking place in this country along nil lines Nnturally however their attention is drawn most particularly to any industry in which thoy themselves havo shared and of which they know something def inite Tho beet sugar industry while it is familiar becauBO of the planting of tho Oxnard beet sugar factory at this place somo years ago is just beginning to attract capital on auy largo scale Tho articlo which is copied below from ouo of tho ablest business journals of tho country tells in a couciso aud clear way tho story of what is going on in this department at tho present time The development in this now industry is astonishing even to those who aro in the business and to all others a brief statement of it will prove a revelation One beet sugar factory at Rome N Y is complotingits second campaign very sue cesfifully Tho beet sugar mill at BinghamtonN Y is having a success ful first campaign and others aro pro jected in central and western New York So remarkable has boon tho success of tho first campaign of tho Michigan Sugar Company at Bay City Mich that that mill is to double its capacity and tho same peoplo aro building another factory near by A third company is putting up a largo factory nt West Bay City Mich and other large enterprises aro projected at Benton Harbor Grand Haven nnd other Michigan points At Rochester Mich tho Detroit Sugar Company composed of tho most sub stantial capitalists of that city contract ed for a COO tou mill which tho Oxnrds aro to make a model of perfection While Pennsylvania Ohio and Indiana are not booming beet sugar quite as indus triously as is Michigan with its bounty they aro deeply interested Illinois has a large beet sugar mill now being equip ped nt Pekin for tho lbl crop and an other will doubtless be constructed at Ottawa 111 Tho pioneer beet sugar factory in Wis consin did not run simply because of lack of beets sufllcently rich in quantity and quality of sugar The Northwestern Beet Sugar company is now letting con tracts for a plant at Merrillan Wis for which several thousand acres of beets will be required for the 1899 crop In Iowa South Dakota nnd certain sections of Kansas tho interest is very keen The two well established beot sugar fac tories in Nebraska have had a favorable season and their ncreage for 1899 will probably be double that of any previous season A million dollars of Bostons money is going into n model beet sugar factory near Ames Neb in connection with the Standard Cattle Company Some of the most prominent and wealth iest of Bostons financiers are interested in this proposition which because of the remarkably favorable locality and exper ienced managment promises to be one most profitable of all the beet sugar en terprises A good deal of New Eugland money that has recently been made in copper stock will be invested in the beet sugar industry at various western points In Colorado a sugar mill of 800 tons daily capacity has been contracted for to be located at Grand Junction in the western part of the state and an other large mill iB pretty certain to be built at Pueblo Col Several others are wanted in the state The beet sugar factory at Lohi has just completed its eighth successive campaign with brillant success from both tho manufacturing and agricultural standpoints The new mill at Ogden Utah has also wound up its first season The beet sugar factory at Eddy NM in tho Pecos valley is doing fairly well aud others are con templated in New Mexico and Arizona One or more beet sugar factory enter prises aro being agitated for Wyoming South Dakota Montana and Idaho On the Pacific coast this industry has assumed large proportions The biggest beot sugar factory in the world located in the Salinas valley California has n capacity of 8000 tons of beets per day and with the neighboring factory at Watsonville will consume the product of nearly 60000 acres of beets each year In fact these two mills nloue pay the farmers upward of 2500000 every year for this new crop The historic sugar mill at Alvorado which has been run ningoffand on for twenty five years has of lato been so successful that its capacity has been doubled and the same management aro interested in the new mill of the Union Sugar Company near Santa Maria which will have a capacity of 1 000 tous of beets per day The great beet sugar plaut at Ohino San Bern ardino county Cal has completed its eighth season and is contracting for thousands of acres of beets of the 1800 crop having a capacity of 1000 tons daily Its 1897 campaign was extraord inarily profitable The Los AlamitOB sugar house is to double its capacity from 850 to 700 touB of beets per day of I 24 hours Perhaps the moit model es i tablishment of Its kind In tho world is the new 2000 ton plant of tho Pacific Sugar company nt tho now rn of Ox nard Ventura county Cal It repro sents an investment of 3000000 nnd a largo town is building up nlxmt it Tho capnciijimw 1000 Ions of beets per day will bo Increased to 2000 tous re quiring 20000 acres of boots each year So much for

Attontion is called to tho increasing number of real estate transfers that aro recorded in tho columns of Tin Nkwh recently day by day They form a barometer of existing conditions that cannot bo ignored nnd is of deep signi ficance Real estate is already moving at advancing prices in Norfolk and vicinity and this is likely to continue Dealers in Hit all trstify that calls for lands aro more numerous than they have been for years and that snaps aro vorymuch scarcer than they were a year ago As to Norfolk a keen business man of loin residence in this oily remarked the other day that he could see a noticeable improvement in the condition of pto porty here llents are firm quickly taken aud likely to go higher Owners of city property aro more tenacious of retaining their grip on what they havo nnd instead of wanting to let go aro be ginning to secure moro Nor is this to bo wondered at There is good and substantial foundation for all this In common with the rest of the country Norfolk passed through the sweat box It is true that values never weio de pressed hero as they were iu ninny places yol tho surplus water was all squeezed out But the tide has turned Farmers are getting good prices for their produce Northern Nebraska is filling up with settlers and Norfolk is sure to receive large benefit from it all Architect Stitt says that ho has already plans for a largo number of dwellings to bo erected in tho spring and the number is constantly giowiug Houses aro in demand and tho inciease of new families locating hero is one of the signs of the times Tho locition of the site for a govern ment building is soon to be made and within a year or two a substantial structure on one of tho business corners will loom up the possession of Uncle Samuel Tlio agitation nnd interest of tho solid business men of tho city in the erection of an opera house the prospect of the building of tho Yankton it Nor folk railroad this season the project for tho establishment of a state normal school here nil indicate tho latent pos sibilities of the city and tho firm faith of conservative men who aro not in the habit of throwing money to tho biids The work of tho Business Mens asso ciation in behalf of local interests is worthy of commendation Here citizens of all shades of opinion different polit ical complexion and various social tastes havo disregarded all minor considera tions aud risen to the needs and benefits that accrue from a common citizeuship aud a broad minded public spirit Norfolk is nt tho beginning of a new and substantial era of development Thero will bo no boom Nobody wants it Thero will be growth It is likely to bo much more decided thau peoplo aro apt to think At least it will bo sure and healthy How largo a growth it has depends most largely on the attitudo of its own citizens Heaven does about tho same by cities as it doe by individuals it helps those most who aro willing to help themselves It is be cause this is true and because of the enterprise aud energy that is being dis played by tho business forces of Norfolk that The Newk has unbounded confi dence in the future of this city Its location calls for growth Outsid ers are sure to recognize it Capital will seek investment here if given the glad hand It will be The harmony and aggressiveness man ifested in behalf of Norfolks interests by Norfolks citizens presages great
