SAYS PROPOSED LAWS TOO DRASTIC Would Decrease Efficiency of Cold Storage, Says Authority NEW YORK CAMPAIGN BEGINS IN EARNEST ' I City Officials Are Arranging for Sale of Government Supplies. "Washington.?Hearings on proposed legislation regulating cold storage concerns were continued by the house agricultural committee with F. G. l/ineer, editor of Products Review, of New York, opposing any further restraint. He said the leiislation under consideration would tend to decrease the usefulness and efficiency of the cold storage systems. Tomorrow the committee will begin hearings on the proposed amendments to the food control act suggest ed by President Wilson. Recent opinions by food administration officials that elvvon cents fas a fair price for sugar arc being trans nutted by the department of justice to district attorneys for their information in the campaign against profiteering.

C. ?Sd^!UMSQfiff9kli9UHE'2H THE HORRY HERALD, CONW, in raising a crop and determining the cost of production, specialists of the United States Dcgtartmcnt of Agriculture have made a study of four of the most impotrant sugar bsct areas in the United States. The department has published four bulletins, one on each of the four areas studied, giving in detail the results of the investigations. The first bulletin deals with the Utah and Idaho area, the second takes up the work in Colora- j [lo, the third gives the results obtained in Michigan and Ohio, and the fourth, Bulletin 7G0, just issued, discusses the practices on 165 farms in three typical sugar regions of California. While the requirements of the beet crop in terms of value that prevailed Hiwincrli 1 Q1 K nrwl 1 01 C ??vn /InnU .ttifli va a wvv^ii A V* V' Ml V VIV d 1 t >1 I V" in the recent publication, the authors state that when such requirements are known the cost of producing sugar beets can be ascertained for any Kivoh crop year by substituting current rates for labor, seed water, etc., for those given in the bulletin. The cost data, therefore, are valuable solely for purposes of comparison. While the suggestions are directly applicable to California districts, the authors believe that certain features relating to increased production will be found vluable to growers in other regions. w In two of the California districts, Los Angeles and Salinas, on the farms visited more than 50 per cent of the tillable land is utilized in g> owing beets, while in the other district. Oxnard, over one-third of the tillable land is devoted to this crop. The average acre yields for the three districts during the period covered b\ the study (1915-16) were: Los Angeles 14.52 tons; Oxnard, 9.53 tons; Salinas, 15.59 tons. The cost per acre during this period was, for the Los Angeles region, $67.11; Oxnard. $54.88; and Salinas, $66.45. In general, the bulletin savs as acreage increases acre cost decreases, while a; yield increases acre cost increases, although cost per ton decreases. Labor Principal Cost. Labor was the principal cost itemin the three districts, amounting to 5C per cent of the total cost of production, while the use of the land amounted to 35 per cent. The more important factors which enter into the cost of producing sugar beets arelabor interest on land or rental, seed,, water, taxes and insurance.

After thcv are cut the * g tops are allowed to remain in the , ^ rows, but before the land is plowed i they are scattered over the field with I a harrow one harrowing being suf- ficient. Farm manures are used in the California areas to enrich the soil, but they are exceedingly scarce. Deep Plowing Needed. For the successful production of an intensive crop like the sugar beet I it is necessary to have a deep, wellprepared seed bed. In regions where rainfall is limited and occurs mainly during the winter, as in California, it is especially desirable to pracitcc deep fall plowing This enables the soil to store large quantities of water during the rainy period and increases the yield by facilitating the I development of a beet with as long tap root. On the farms included in the study the depth of plowing ranged from an average of 9.5 inches in the Salinas district to 11.5 inches in the Oxnard district. After the seed bed had been further prepared by rolling, harrowing, and leveling the seeding was done from December 1 to June 1, the time varying according to localities. Cultivating ranged from February 15 to July 15, but in the Salinas disrtict it was practiced chiefly in May, June and July. The first cultivation preceded blocking and thinning. In the T,os Angeles and Salinas areas irrigation is sometimes necessary, but usually only one irrigation is required. -o ....
