SUGAR BEETS IN WESTERN CANADA 



Sugar beets grow well in Western Canada 

 and a very successful industry can be built 

 upon their cultivation. In Southern Alberta 

 alone fie area suitable to the growth of the 

 best kind of sugar beets exceeds that of any 

 two of the largest producing districts in the 

 United States. It is only because the Alberta 

 farmer has been so pre-eminently successful 

 in the raising of stock and of grain that 

 more has not been heard about the possibih- 

 ties of the sugar beet — but just as grain of 

 higher quahty and in larger fields is produced 

 in Western Canada than in the older dis- 

 tncts, so sugar beets grown in the West 

 generally contain more sugar and show a 

 greater tonnage per acre than those grown 

 elsewhere. Tests made with beets grown 

 under irrigation from five different kinds of 

 seeds at the Dominion Government Ex- 

 perimental Station, Lethljridge, Alta., showed 

 (says the Coloniser) a yield of 17}i, 163^, 

 15^, and 9% tons per acre with a sugar 

 percentage of 15.84, 19.42, 17.85, and 16.25 

 respectively — ^in the same district, but on 

 unirrigated land from 9J^ to 12^4 tons per 

 acre were grown from the same seed — and 

 in the eastern and western sections of the 

 Canadian Pacfiic Imgation Block, east of 

 Calgary, even better results have been 

 obtained; beets containing 20 per cent 

 sugar have been grown there for successive 

 years, and the growers believe tliis higher 

 percentage can be maintained with lai^e 

 crops. — West India Committee Circular.
