3. If the beets are grown on the other side of a 

 stream over which there exists no permanent bridge, 

 this being phiced some three miles from the factory, 

 then adopt the Hodgson system. 



4. If, on the contrary, the factory is woi'king on a 

 very large scale, and it becomes necessary to grow 

 beets distances from the factoi-y of twenty to thirty 

 miles to supply the demands, then we have Linard's 

 idea, where the number of raperies may vary with the 

 work going on, and the above incumbrances of the 

 daily arrival of large volumes of roots are no longer to 

 be dreaded.
