PES CE5T OF BEET SUGAR.
That Is What Sloax County Sugar
Beets Tlela.
The Highest Yield Ever Obtained.
Now For a Factory!
For more than a year The Jocrkal
lias been urging the culture of sugar
beets, believing that the soil and climate
of Sioux county were of the best quality
for success in tliat line.
Lost spring a large number of small
packages of sugar beet seed were distri
buted from this office to enable the
farmers to experiment in the culture of
sugar beets. Only four samples of three
beets each were sent to the state univer
sity for analysis.
The first of last week word was re
ceived by some in regard to the
tests made, and before the last issue of
The Journal the report from Bigelow
Bros' beets, showing a yield of 21 per
cent jf sugar. That was a very high
yield, having been excelled by but two
tests in 18ft9, and by those only to the
extent of 1.8 per cent, and all those in
terested in the development tif the indus
try were highly pleased.
After Tint Journal was issued Wm.
0. O'Connor came in with the card he
had received from the state university
stating that his beets had given the un
precedented yield of 23.3 per cent of
sugar.
Ever since the sugar beet culture has
been known in Nebraska the tests have
shown a greater content of sugar than
those grown in any other place, and now
Sioux county has demonstrated that
tieets grown in her soil are richer in su
gar than those from any other part of
the state, and consequently the greatest
sugar yielding beets in the world, and
the beets wereaot grown to get the heist
results, having received Ttoa""
. . .
None of the beets sent from Sioux
county yielded loss than 12 per cent of
siignr'miii that is rich enough to jmy to
work up, and the average yield of the
lot auulyzed 17.31.
The tests made ei.'i t.ui.ly ought to en
courage our people to make an eti'ort to
secure a factory, and ought also to n
Iract the attention of men of capital wim
desire to invent in a niiiiiufucturiti' en
terprise. If it pays to work up UH
tliat yield 12 per cent of sugar, th-ire
would cm Utility t; an enormous profit in
working up beets which yield iit't y p;r
cent more sugar trow thti same amount
of 1ets handled.
Now let cur people make a strong,
united and determined ellort to get a
sugnr factory ittid success will ultimaii.U
crown the ttl'oi't.

Obituary.
Emilv T. onlv daughter of A. N. and
'J. T. Weir, was borrrin Grayville, Itidi
; ana, Nov. 8, 1872, camo to Nebraska iu
1887, where she lived until Jan. 1890,
when she went to Woburn, Mass, with
. her mother, where she died of congestion
' of the brain on Dec. 1, 1890, at the age of
18 years and 22 days.
At the meeting of the W. C. T. U. of
Harrison on Dec. 13th the following res-
! olutions expressive of their heartfelt
i sympathy and sorrow in ttie great afllic
i tion that has made desolate the home of
! their dear sinter, Mrs. J. T. Weir, now of
I Woburn, Mutts.
j Whereas A great affliction lias fal
: len upon our beloved former secretary,
Mrs. J. T. Weir, in the loss of tier daiiglt
I ter, Emma T. Weir whose geutlo, clieer-
ful and womanly ways drew around her
a large circle of friends in each commu-
nity where she resided, be it
j RRSOfArED That we as a union tender
I our dear sister our sincere and tenderest
j sympathy in the loss of her only daugh
i ter. Realizing how empty are our words
of comfort, we would commend the
stricken family, mother and sons to the
only source of consolation and comfort
in such hours of trial.
Resolved Tltat this expression of our
love and sympathy be olfered to our lo
cal paer8 for publication and copies
sent to the friends.
Among many letters of condolence sent
to the sorrowing mother and brother Ed
ward, were two, from the principal of
the high school which she attended and
an associate professor and teacher, which
tell of her standing in her school life:
Woburn High School,
Woburn, Mass., Dec.2.
Dear Mrs, Weir;
Please accept a sincere
expression of sympathy from the teach
ers in the High School, for your great
bereavement in the loss of your daugh
ter. During the time she was with us
she endeared herself to us by her gentle
ness of manner and her eagerness to
learn. If any word of praise for her
whom you have lost, can in any way
lighten your sorrows, we can all hearti
ly and truthfully commend her as being
all that any teacher could wish of a pu
pil. Out of respect to tier memory, her
class will be excused from school tomor
row afternoon.
Very sincerely yours,
(Prof.) HkkbetB. Dow.
Woburn, DEC. 2, 1890.
My Dear Mrs. Weir:
1 was deeply grieved
to hear of the death of your daughter
and I extend to you the heartfelt Aympa
Uiy of one whose acquaiutanco with

walks of life. You caatutt iuiiuagine the
bene lit that we as tuicliers derive from
those scholars whose noble hearing in the
,tIioo1 St;ts such line examples for those
who perhaps have not such strong de
terminations for the right. We oar. al
ways select those scholars whose home
imining has len good :md I know that
your da lighter has enjoyed the blessings
of a good home. Ah! how sad death is!
But the thought that there lias gone one
whose life has endeared tier to those
.'(.round tier and has earned the deep re
spect of all thi.ie with whom she haB
come in contact, makes it easier for us
to say as we mourn the bitter toss, "Thy
will "bo done" May God give you
.strength to I tear up under this terrible
loss, which I in common with my pupils,
deeply mourn. Believe nie
