Sugar Beet Investigations. 197 



Each sample of beets sent for analysis was weighed and thus the 

 average weight of beets analyzed was found. 



TJie variety of beets analyzed. — In each case the variety of sugar 

 beet analyzed was the K/etJiwanzlebener, except toward the end of the 

 tables, where special mention is made of other varieties. 



We believe that these tables will be of enough value and interest to 

 warrant their publication. They are not pubHshed with the thought 

 or idea of having established either a maximum or minimum of results 

 in the growing of sugar beets, but are given as showing what the 

 farmers have done this present season (summer of 1897).
