A, T. Nichols, living three inileb
west ot town, received returns yes
terday from hiH first car of beets.
The car was a small one and only
held eighteen and a half tons, but
the beets were of a superior quality
testing 18.8 per cent in sugar and
90 in purity, and were rated at
55 20 per ton. Mr. Nichols had in
six acres ot beets and the total
yield will exceed one hundred tons,
thus giving him a revenue ot about
tiinely dollars per acre. This reve
nue ia four timet) greater than any
acre ot corn in Lincoln county will
produce, and while the expense ot
weeding, cultivating and haryest
ing beets is much greater than
corn, yet the net revenue derived
from beets itf seycral times gi eater
than from corn. Mr. Nichols says
that he did not have a fair bhow,
else his results would cvep have
been better. The land he put in
beets had not been properly culti
vated for several years and was
therefore foul with weeds. There
is considerable alkali in l lie ground
but it did not seem to "interfere
with the growth or purity ot the
ucets.
