Note.—The data for all farms and all beets produced were taken from the 1923 Yearbook of the Depart- ment of Agriculture and supplementary data furnished by the Bureau of Agricultural Economics with permission of the companies concerned. The data for the farms investigated were obtained in the field and supplemented by data furnished by the Bureau of Agricultural Economies. } All the three-year averages are weighted. The sugar content for each year and each State was weighted by the total tons of sugar beets produced in that State. “A minus (—) sign indiates that the average sugar content per ton of beets harvested on all farms was creater than the average sugar content per ton of beets harvested on the farms investigated. Table 12 (p. 31) shows that the three-year average of sugar ex- tracted from a ton of beets for the country as a whole was 258 pounds, while for the nine States covered by the investigation it was 260.5 pounds, or 2.5 pounds per ton in favor of the specified nine States. The table further shows that there were on the average 3.4 more pounds of sugar extracted per ton of sugar beets grown in. the area investigated than on all farms in the nine States in which the investi- ration was made. It may therefore be deduced that 5.9 pounds,
