About 60 carloads of sugar beets are arriving daily at the Western Sugar company plant in Billings. First week output reached 16 000 tons with an average daily run near 2 000 tons and a top day of 2 300 tons. Beets run about 16.5 percent sugar content and are unusually clean due to dry weather.

Total district yield expected around 11 tons per acre with 600 workers employed locally.
