The Company's initial payment of nearly $27,000,000 is the second largest on record. These dollars are busy dollars. They participate directly or indirectly, in every activity of this regon. Substantial sums also go into factory payrolls, revenues to railroads, payments to coal miner's and many other channels of business and industry. The basis for this impressive operation is the sugar beet itself. The experience of 1950 is again confirming the truth estab lished by a half-century of beet growing in the West: that the sugar beet is the most dependable crop that can be grown ex tensively on Western irrigated land and that it makes for solvent agriculture. / 7GREAT WESTERN SUGAR COMPANY V •T Thank You Sincerely For Your Patronage During Our First Week Special Thanksgiving Turkey With All The Trimmings $150 Yellowstone Cafej VW I William Paronto was best man I an d Blair Paronto was an usher. j They are both brothers of the Fairbum, mother of the I bride, chose a black suit with pink 1 accessories.
