Description:
Inconsistency in the returns of sugar percentages from the factories has often perplexed growers and has at times given rise to some mistrust of the analytical procedure. Consignments of beet lifted on the same day and from the same field have been credited by the factory with widely different sugar contents. This has occurred within the writer's experience, even though the precaution was taken of loading the cart loads of beet into two trucks alternately, thereby eliminating any possibility of one truck being filled with beet from a better part of the field than the other.
