Upon graduation from college
52 years ago Priday was
employed by the largest sugar
processor In the country. He
said that although the processing
of the sugar beet was seasonal
the work was long and
hard, lasting 12 hours a day
for seven days a week.
Priday said that his first impression
upon arriving in Montana
was "Where are all the
trees?"
The sugar beet, Priday said,
is grown on contract and harvested
and processed duringthe
coldest month. He had several
sugar beets to show the Rotarians
and it would appear
they would weigh from seven to
10 pounds each. He said each
beet would produce 17% of Its
weight In pure sugar with the
by-products being usod for livestock
feed.
Prlday said that most of the
sugar consumed west of the
Mississippi is from sugar beets
and east of the Mississippi
from sugar cane. Transportation
costs are the reason, he
said.
Prlday left his Job with the
sugar beet company to go with
Dupont where he became one
of the company's top executives.
At Dupont he played alarge part
in the development of smokeless
