Sugar beet industry eyed for Yakima valley growth
Scientific tests show Yakima soil yields high sugar beets with about 18 percent sugar and 85 percent purity. Experiments by Thomas Cooper and F E Deringhoff on 40 farms produced 17 to 32 tons per acre, averaging 20 tons. Eastern capitalists see potential for a sugar beet factory in Sunnyside area with 650000 dollar plant and price guarantees of 4 dollars per ton for beets at 12 percent sugar.
