THE BEET SUGAK INDUSTRY. 



161 



CENTRIFUGALS AT THE MINNESOTA BEET SUGAR FACTORY. 



One of the notable achievements in this industry is the equipping of our domestic sugar factories 

 with American made machinery. Most of the new mills now being built are fitted throughout with 

 machinery and apparatus made in the United States. The factory of the Minnesota sugar company 

 is a case in point, our illustration showing the centrifugals made by the American Tool and Machine 

 Co., Hyde Park, Massachusetts. The many improvements in American sugar machinery also make it 

 very popular in both domestic and foreign sugar houses. Over $200,000,000 worth of machinery and 

 apparatus will be needed to fit out the number of mills required to produce in the United States 

 the sugar our people consume.
