PICTURES TELL OF Andrews, Maynard Aid In Pre senting Interesting Program An interesting program of motion pictures in colors that presented all the steps of sugar production, from the beet seed to the sacked product, was presented Tuesday at a meet ing of the Rotary club. A consid erable part showed the recent ad vances in farm methods and the introduction of machines to replace hand labor. The program was in charge of B. M. Harris, a program committeman for September, who introduced Lyman H. Andrews, superintendent of the Billings fac tory of Great Western Sugar com pany, and Jack Maynard of the Bil lings Brokerage company. The picture began by showing the importance of sugar as a food and implement of war. Actual pro duction scenes began with the seed, now produced wholly in the Uuited States. After planting and after the At Rotary Meeting I young plants had come through the surface of the soil, old hand labor methods and new mechanized were illustrated in connection with the growth, thinning, harvesting and loading. Although the pictures were as sembled from over the whole try, a major portion had been taken in Colorado and Montana, the distance were familiar tains. ways coun Often in moun Transportation from field to rail road and thence to factory was de picted, followed by slicing and the several steps in producing refined sugar from beets. Some idea of j enormousness of the quantity of sugar needed to keep America go ing at home and at the fronts was [conveyed in glimpses of sugar ware houses. By-products are almost important as sugar, particularly in feeding livestock. The closing scenes were shots of that industry. L. A. Nutting spoke briefly on aiding the city in purchasing a cemetary tract and said the subject would be more fully discussed at a later meeting. Rev. M. J. Wilcox read a state ment of intention of Laurel minis ters to hold thanksgiving services at churches immediately after the declaration of victory in western Europe.
