U. S. BEET SUGAR CROP 

 The Bureau of Crop Estimates of the 

 United States Department of Agriculture 

 in its crop report for April sets the beet 

 sugar production of the United States in 

 1918 at 765,063 tons, or 2,615 tons more 

 than the total announced by the Food 

 Administration Sugar Distributing Com- 

 mittee of Chicago in March, and only 144 

 tons less than the total for the 1917 crop. 

 The department's figures for production 

 in the principal states are : Colorado, 

 191,880 tons; California, 122,795; Mich- 

 igan, 132,092; Utah, 105,794; Nebraska, 

 63,494; Idaho, 44,682; Ohio, 35,476; Wis- 

 consin, 13.35S. 



The report gives the total area har- 

 vested in 1918 as 594,010 acres, against 



664,797 acres in 1917, and the tonnage 

 of beets worked by the factories as 5,523,- 

 036 tons, against 5,025,545 tons in 1917. 

 The average yield of beets per acre is 

 given as 9.9 tons last year, against 9.0 

 tons in 1917. 



The number of factories working in the 

 1918 campaign was 89, against 91, in 



1917, and the average length of the fac- 

 tory runs was 81 days, against 74 the 

 previous year. 



The average sugar content of the 1918 

 beets is given as 16.1S, as compared with 

 16.28 in 1917, and the average extraction 

 as 13.85, against 13.60 the year before. 

 Extraction thus ran somewhat higher in 



1918, although the sugar content was 

 lower.
