GARLAND'S SUG AR FACTORY
What the Utah Sugar Company Has Done for the Bear River
Valley The Canal's Past History A Future for
This Valley A Boon to Garland,
.Just prior to the closing of tho
sugar fnctorj ut ('urlimi! for tho sea
son of 1005 we had tho pleasure of
being shown through the establish
ment nnd viewing the operations
while In full blast Mr. M oh lull IOv
"(tins, tho resident manager, conducted
;iis through every department from tho
icet storngo blnsato tho Hacking and
tflnal stoieroom, whero sacks piled
high await tho shipping orders from
various locations. Every detail wns
thoroughly outlined and tho different
processes explained to us In u very
satisfactory manner.
Those who have failed to visit tho
'factory hnvo missed considerable and
cannot compiehond the vast amount
of work It requires to transform tho
(beet to the pure grnlns of sugar.
Owing to our limited tlmo to pro
'pare this issuo for tho 10th wo aro
lunnblo to do Justice to tho company
jor to satisfy ourselves In fnlllng to
present to tho public a moro detailed
'account of the workings nnd benolltH
,of this extensive Institution. Wo are
(Indebted to tho Dcseret News for con
siderable of tho Information wo nub
,in It on this page.
In tho early seventies, nftcr tho de
velopment of Cache valley was begun,
'President Hrlgham Young considered
the possibility of bringing out tho
great Hear river canal through the
Dear river canyon, but saw the Im
possibility of raising Hulllclcnt capltnl
to develop this stupendous work, nnd
abandoned It for tho tlmo being.
Later on Mr. John W. Kerr, n bank
er of Salt hake, had preliminary sur
veys mado to take tho water from
Doar river near u point which Is
known ns the natural dam nbout one
mllo from whero tho present power
plant of tho Utah Sugar company Is
flow located; tho difficulty that con
fronted Mr. Kerr whb tho financing or
it. Ho also abandoned tho project, ns
fit. wns very dllllcult to get this
amount of money to develop this vast
work, In 18S7 Mr. John II. Bothwoll
of Now York spent sumo time In tho
valley and lllcd on the waters of Hear
river and hear lake, and wns success
Iful In promoting tho project through
tho financial agents, Jarvlo & Conklln,
jthen of Kansas City, who sold two
jnllllon worth of bonds for tho build
ing nnd equipment of the canal and
tho Ogdcn waterworks. Tho corpora
tion wns known as tho Hear Lake &
Itlvcr Water Works & Irrigation com
,pnny, with Jarvls & Conklln as trus
tees. Crash Came In 1893.
In ISO:), when tho terrible finnnclnl
.nvalanche swept over tho world, Jnr
jvls & Conklln fnllcd for about $30,
000,000, and tho Hear ftlver company
(being ono of their projects, went to
tho wall; thoy wero not ablo to pay
t'P ono of their contractors, who was
(Mr. William Garland, by IIGO.OOO, and
.ho filed a mechanic's Hen for this
amount, which kept tho company In
litigation for about five years, and the
supremo court of tho United States
decided In favor of Garland. Durlns
the Interval of this litigation on Jan
inry A, 183H, Mr. W. H. Howe, who
vns then assistant superintendent or
the Z. 0. M. I., was appointed receiver
of tho Hear Lako & Itlvcr Water
Works & irrigation Company; when
Mr. Howo took possession of It for tho
bondholders, tho canal was In nn tin
'finished condition, nnd ho took u trip
do London nnd mined sudlclcnt money
'from tho bondholders to finish tho
.canal. In Soptcmber, 1894, tho Dear
lLako business was foreclosed, aud
iwns bought In by representatives of
itho bondholders, and a now company
iwas organized In the name of the Dear
'Ulver Irrigation & Ogden Water
Works company. Through great of
:fortB tho land under tho Henr river
canal was developed and many farms
sold. The development of tho valley
would huvo been much moro success
iful had not tho Garland litigation
ibeen pending for tho live years past.
Ins all the water rights were being sold
'subject to tho Garland lien.
Bought by Evans and Dooly,
Messrs. David Kvuns and John 12.
Pooly of Snlt Lake purchased Gar
Jnnd's Interest, nnd during tho owner
ship of KvanB and Dooly they Im
proved tho canal system at a cost of
12D,000.
The Utah Sugar company In 1001
purchased tho Interests of ICvuus and
Dooly and nlso bought some .10,000
acres of land In the vtilloy. SInco thu

Make Good the Water Rights.
And one magnanimous uct of thu
Utah Sugar company was tho com
promise mado with tho receiver of tho
cdmpany In making good all tho water
rights that had ever been issued to the
jfarmers without any expense to tlicin.
Tho sugar company Is now furnish
ing water to tho farmers on tho enst
sldo of tho Hear river through tho
ditches of tho Hammond Canal com
pany. This company buys tho surplus
waters and sells to tho farmers nboro
Ilrlgham City, Lands which have
;iover before had water brought upon
thorn have been Irrigated during tho
past summer and tho sugar company
;has received many good beets from
jthlu ber.tion,
Purchased by Sugar Company.
Tho deal through which tho Utah
SiiKar company cnino Into possession
pf tho near river cunul 8 stem nnd
tho 30,000 ncres of land thut went
with It wns consummated on May 3,
,1901, I)y this purchase tho company
camo Into possession of property that
had originally cost J3.000.000. Almost
(Immediately thereafter tho directors
of tho HUgur company authorized Its
I agents to contruct with tho runners
,who resided In tho vulloy, and whoso
sflBk A ' mMiiLvr""
lands wero under the ditches of tho
canal for n crop of beets.
The First Beet Crop.
During tho year 300 acres wero
planted and successfully cultivated
under the direction of tho company's
resident agriculturist. In Reason the
crop was harvested and shipped to tho
Lehl factory to bo reduced Into sugar.
Analysis showed the beets to be of a
superior grade, nnd in tho following
year, 1902, contracts were entered Into
with tho farmers for the crop from
fiOO ncres. while the company, on Its
own account, cultivated nnd harvested
1,000 acres. The success achioved be
ing (equally ns pronounced ns It wos
during tho provlous season, which
proved to tho officials of tho sugar
company thnt the Hear river region
was In every way adapted to BUgur
beet culture.
Conditions Were Perfect.
The cllmato could not bo more per
fect and thero were no elements lack
ing In tho soli for the proper propa
gation of tho beet plant. In ninny re
spects the country seemed to havo Its
advantages over tho Utah county re
gion, whore tho sugar Industry of Utah
was born and where It was demon
strated that It could be mado among
tho state's greatest enterprises. Tho
second year's success In tho Bear
river volley loft no doubt about tho
company being fully Justified In going
to tho expenso of another factory.
When Contract Was Let.
During the autumn of that year, or,
to bo more exact, on September 8,
Thomns II. Cutler, general mnnngcr of
tho Utnh Sugar company, nworded the
contract to the Dyers of Cleveland for
the handling of GOO tons of beets per
day. This was done whllo Mr. Cutler
was In tho cast and shortly after his
return, which was nbout October 1C,
in company with other officials, mndo
a trip to tho now boot growing for tho
purpose of selecting n site for the pro
posed factory. The ground was gono
over thoroughly, several locations
wcro suggested. All had their attrac
tive features, yet nono of them seemed
to fill the bill quite as well as what
was known us the Garland site nnd
tho officials were unnnlmous In arriv
ing at that conclusion. Accordingly, It
was selected.
The Excavations Begun.
No tlmo was lost, for forthwith con
tracts wore let nnd work on the exca
vations begun. Tills task was com
pleted and the foundations put In In
tho fall of 1902. so that everything
was ready for tho structure by tho be
ginning of tho year 1903. Tho factory
was completed In tlmo to work up thnt
year's crop of beets, which consisted
of 2.C00 acres. It wont Into commis
sion on December 9 and continued to
tho end of tho season without any
serious hitch.
At tho tlmo or making tho location
Corlnno was the nearest railroad point
and much or the machinery for tho
new factory was hauled to the slto by
teams, yet tho railroad from Corlnno,
which Is now a part of tho Oregon
Short Lino's Mnlnd branch, renchod
the now town of Garland In tlmo to
bring In tho bulk of the equipment.
In 1901 tho ncrcago of beets wob In
creased und In thnt year tho sugar
company contracted for and planted
3,000 ncres. This year the crop In the
Hear river and Malad valleys Is 7,384
acres.
Owing to tho ravages of tho whlto
fly, which has Infested nearly nil tho
western beet districts, this season's
crop Ib light as compared tn other
years, yet In splto or this tho Hear
river crop will probably nggregato
60,000 tons and tho run ol tho rnclory
will last until about the middle of De
cember. Japanese Labor Employed.
Japancso labor Is employed to n
largo oxtent in tho beet fields. Owing
to tho difficulty of securing white la
bor for tho work the sugar company
this year contracted 3,500 acres to tho
Japanoso-Amcrlcin company. Tho
Jnps plant tho seed In the spring nnd
cultlvuto und nurse tho plant until It
leaches maturity and for their trouble
they nro remunerated on tho basis of
$20.r0 per acre tor a ten-ton crop,
That Is to say, ir an aero or ground
produces 10 tons of boots, tho Japs got
tills amount of money; If tho crop
amounts to moro than 10 tons, CO cents
per ncro additional Is paid, whllo If
It fulls short or the basis, the 00 cents
Is deducted. Tho contract or tho Jap
anoso company ends with the topping
and digging of tho bectB at tho tlmo
or harvest In tho full tho company
attends to the delivery of them to tho
factory.
Many of tho Tanners In tho Dear
river country also employ .Inpaneso In
their beet fields nnd tho customary ar
rangement Is to give tho Jnp ono-hnlf
the crop .or the proceeds from It when
icturnH nro made by tho sugar com
pany. Tho farmer p'reparos tho ground
for seeding, but ho stops thero and has
nothing moru to do with tho tract
leased to the Orientals 'until harvest
tlmo cornea. Tho Japs take caro of
tho seeding and growing of tho crop.
Tho land owner does nothing moro,
but to look out for tho digging nnd
marketing of the beets. Tlio Japa
nese do tho rest. Their duties nro
then finished, except the drawing or
tho cash duo them, which comas direct
from the paymaster of tho sugar com
pany after the crop Is delivered.
Company Supplies Seed.
Tho sugar company supplies all tho
seed for planting In tho spring, mak
ing a chargo of J2.7G per acre, which
Is deducted from tho returns from tho
salo of tho first lot of beets, With the
company supplying tho seed a uniform
variety from tho host selected grades
Is maintained, thus working to tho mu
tual adviuitago of both the company
and tho grower,
It Pays to Raise Beets.
That the raising of sugar beets Is a
profitable business, undor ordlnury cir
cumstances, Is readily evidenced by
i
the record made In the Bear river
country during last year. While tho
expense of producing n crop of beets
is n great deal there Is nevertheless a
good profit In It.
President Agriculturist Wllllnm D.
Lewis, who has been n resident of Gar
land almost from Its very beginning,
told tho writer not long ngo that tho
cost of producing an acre of beets con
not be undertaken for less than about
$40, and oftentimes It costs moro. But
that figure, he states, can be called a
fairly good nverage of tlio expenso.
Profits of Last Year.
In 1904, Mr. Lewis declared, tho
beets raised In the Bear river region
brought nn average net profit of $19
per ncro to growers. Figured on that
basis thoy cleared abovo all expenses
$57,000 off of the 3,000 ncres plnnted
during thnt season. A snug fortune,
Indeed, to havo distributed about n
farming community ns clear gain.
Holds the Record.
Mr. Lowls relates that ono grower
of sugar beets, John. P. Holmgrecn of
Beur Hlver City, wns only Induced to
go Into tho business after considerable
persuasion from Agriculturist Lewis
and other company officials, and It
was a lucky thing for him that ho ac
quiesced, Tor ho cleared up $15 per
aero off a 55-ocre patch, or $2,500.
This after ho had deducted every ex
pense connected with tho raising of
tho crop and even to tho payment of
tho taxes on his land. Previous to tho
building of tho Garland sugar fnctory
.Mr. Holmgrecn followed tho pursuit
or stockrnlslng, but nftcr this experi
ence with beet culture he wns not
long In making up his mind thnt It
sometimes pays to Inject tho policy of
expansion into one's dally life. With
out first making nn Investigation or
the subject Mr. Holmgrecn took It Tor
granted that his time nnd energy could
be applied moro profitably by continu
ing the vocation or stockrnlslng. But
ho thinks differently now.
Can Any One Beat It?
Tho Utnh Sugar company, through
Resident Manager Moaluh Evans, of
fered a substantial prlzo to any one
that could come up to Mr. Holmgrcen's
beet record, but so far the challenge
hns not been nccepted. From off 25
ncres out of his 55, the present holder
of the record obtained an averago of
30 tons nnd 455 pounds of beets, his
gross receipts from tho full ncrcago
aggregated the sum of $5,700.
Has Made Country Prosper.
Indeed, tho Introduction of the sugar
beet Industry Into thnt region has
wrought many changes In the Bear
river valley and, likewise, will do so
for tho Malad. Previous to tlio build
ing or tho Garland factory tho region
was sparsely settled and those who
hod gono thero to find homes experi
enced no end of discouraging hard
ships. Many of them had a dllllcult
time to mnke ends meet.
Ab wos the case In Utah county,
when Lehl becamo n sugar making
town, the people were given new hope.
Now opportunities wero opened to
them by tho Introduction of beet cul
ture. Tho door of prosperity wns
opened wldo to them; now settlers
camo Into tho country nnd with their
nld tho desert becamo rapidly re
claimed. The Influx still continues
nnd ero long the Bear river valley will
become one of the most densely popu
lated as well as ono of tho richest sec
tions of tho stntc.
A trip through tho country from
Gnrlnnd north to Malad, confronts one
with n picture or prosperity. It Is In
ovldcnco everywhere. In the older do
veloped beet zones tho proors nro por
hops moro perceptible, for tho Inhabit
ants have later Improvements nnd thoy
aro now making them In n great many
plnccs. Those who hnvo tasted tho
bitterness of adversity, or, perhaps, at
somo tlmo havo deprived themselves
of tho necessaries of life thnt thoy
might pull through to another harvest,
aro now reaping their reward and are
providing themselves, If thoy hnvo not
already done so, with now homes nnd
new environments. Indeed, tho past
fow years have brought about a won
derful transformation In Box Klder
county.
Harvesting of Beet Crop.
Tho harvesting of n beet crop Is not
lacking In its Interesting features. In
tho fields at this tlmo of tho year can
bo seen hundreds of men, women nnd
children, all engaged In tho digging
tho beets nnd getting them In shape to
bo sent to tho factory. Thero Is some
thing of a fosclnntlon about it, too.
Perhaps for tho reason the workers
hnvo plenty of company and tho hours
or labor do not drag. Kvery ono en
gaged In tho vocation scorns to enjoy
It nnd frequently regret Is expressed
thnt tho season Is so short.
How Beets Reach Factory.
Tho sugar company does every
thing It con to oxpedlto tho market
ing of tho crop. Beets from about
2.000 acres, within u close radius of
tho factory aro delivered by teams,
whllo In the more renio'o sections tho
railroads do tho work. If tho lino
Just built Into the edge of tho town
of Mnlnd or other portions of tho
great Oregon Short Lino system do
not com6 within a reasonable distance
of tho beet fleldH. Then thoy oro
brought closer to transportation facil
ities by means of spurs, During tho
present your two Important ones havo
been built to lessen tho difficulty of
reaching tho factory. Ono of them Is
7C mllcB In longth and ponetrates tho
beet fields of Thatcher, Penrose and
Bothwoll.
In this district nbout 1,000 acres
wcro planted this season. Tho other
spur leaves tho tracks of tlio Southern
Pnclflc n fow miles west of Corlnne,
ond goes down to Itochrort, about two
miles further on, whero nbout 550
ncres wero grown this year. Along
tho spurs at convenient Intervals uro
locnted receiving stations, whero tho
beets nro loaded on to curs for movo
ment to Gnrlnndi Tho sugar rompony
during tho harvest season has a train
crow und engine plncod at Its dis
posal. Tho conductor and engineer
recolvo tholr orders frrJn tho manage
niant of tho operating department ot
tho factory ond thoy 60 nothing else
but attend to tho boot) traffic through
out tho zone. J
Dumped Into Storage Bins.
On being brought to the factory tho
oars are landed upoit a high trestle.
Thero the beets uro I unloaded and
dumped Into Immense storngo bins,
which havo capacity for holding about
25,000 tons.
During the past fow months tho
storngo capacity of tho Garland fac
tory has been greatly cnlnrged. The
additional bins put In rcqlured In their
construction a half million feet of
lumber and they cover a space of 513
feet In length by 1C2 feet in width.
Kleven flumes, in which the beets nro
washed ond convoyed to the grinders,
wero put In, mnklng the total on tho
premises 17; nlso two wagon roads
ond two railroad tracks additional.
For the facilities of dumpL.g Into
these bins nro now bIx railroad tracks
ond soven wngon roads.
Process of Making Sugar.
Tho delivery of tho beets to the fjor
land sugar factory, as provlously
stnted, Is dono through tho medium of
railroad cars and wngons, and dimmed
Into tho storage bins, As needed thoy
nro carried from the bins to the grind
ers through tho Bystem of Humes,
which nro so constructed thnt ono
man con handle as much us COO tons
per day. t
The beets, on reaching the mill, are
clovated nnd dumped Into tho washer,
a machine that practically romoves all
tho dirt clinging to them. From tlio
wnBher the beets aro again elevated
and dumped Into tho automatic scale,
which weighs and records with exact
ness every pound or beets entering thu
factory. Aftor this weighing process
the beets nre conveyed to tho auto
matic cutters, which slice them Into
small, thin strips called "cosscttcs"
Theso "cossettCB" fall into tho diffu
sion cells. Tho diffusion process e
tracts tho sugar from tho "cosscttcs"
nnd by Introducing hot wnter tho work
Is conducted In such a way that at thu
end of tho ordeal no sugar Is left In
tho "cosscttcs," which nro now called
beet pulp, tho latter being conveyed
away and stored In tho silos for stock
feed.
Tho Juice of tho beet, after tho dlffu
slon process, Is then carefully meas
ured and sent to tho cnrbonatlon
tanks. Llmo is here ndded to the
Juice and carbonic acid gas intro
duced, which causes n reaction to take
placo by acting on tho llmo, thus
forming n precipitate, which contains
tho most or tho Impurities of tlio Juice
The Julco and precipitate is then 1
pumped to tho filtering presses, where 1
nil tho Bcum la removed, leaving n
light clear Juice, which Is then reheat
ed and sent to tho second cnrbonatlon
tanks. Tho process Is repeated, fol
lowed by another fllteration.
Passing from this process tho Juice
Is pumped Into the sulphltutlon tanks,
whero sulphuric r.cld gas Is Introduced
In n measured quantity, tho object ot
which Is to lighten the Julco ns well ns
to reduce Its velocity. Tho sulphurat
ed Julco Is then filtered through n set
of filters called Daneks. The woter,
which has been Introduced for tho pur
poso of extracting the sugar, must
now bo ovaporated, thus bringing the
Julco up to n given density. In each of
those effects tho Julco Is boiled under
vnccuum. Steam Is applied in tho llrst
effect and tho vapor coming from the
boiling Julco Is then used to boll the
Julco In the second crfect und so on to
tho fifth effect, where, tho vuccum bo
Ing tho highest, tho Juice bolls at a
very low temperature. Tho vapor
from this effect Is condensed In n large
condenser. Tho thick Julco is now
colled syrup, which Is sent to n second
set of sulphltntlon tanks, whero It un
dergoes the snmo process ns it did
previous to this in tlio first Hiilphltn
tlon ond oftcr fllteration tho syrup Is
now or tho highest standard or purlt
and Is ready for tho vacuum pan. In
this pan 100 cubic feet or syrup Is con
centrated to get to what is called
"graining point," arter which very
small crystals in enormous quantities
nre formed. It now becomes tlio ob
ject to feed theso crystnls with rresh
syrup nnd, ns tho water evaporates
tho crystals continue to grow to. a
standard commercial size, at which
tlmo tho vaccuum Is released and the
contents of tho pan, which constitutes
what Is known as tlio Btrlko, is
dumped Into a largo mixer, whero the
strlko Is kept In constant agitation b.
moving paddles. About 300 pounds nj
strlko Is Introduced Into tho centrifu
gal mnchlnes, wliero tho mass Ib spun,
tho molnsscs bolng thrown through
very finely perforated screens nnd

Tho molnsscs spun from tho cen
trifugal machines Is boiled nnd
grnlned In 0 second vaccuum .pan, this
being called tho second strlko. It Is
dumped Into largo crystollzlng vats,
whero tho molasses Is kept in con
stnnt motion. About GG hours Is re
quired for tho grain to grow to a sur
flclont size. This muss Is then dumped
Into another mixer nnd spun In an
other set of centrifugals. Tlio sugar
from theso Is yollow, nnd has to bo
romcltcd In order to refine It to a Btnn
dard granulated sugar.
Tho molnsscs spun out from thq sec

Tho apparatus used In this process

Garland. Tho molasses, after bolng

then leflncd to a standard granulated,
sugar.
The final molasses from this spin

It Is a fruit for which thero Is always:
fair demand, and It Is a fruit people,
aro getting to know and npprecinto
better all tho time. Crisp, Juicy, tart;
or sweet, It is a fruit full of health
fulness, refreshing tnng, tonic quali
