Pictures by: Jim Miller 07-08/05 - Large brick sugarbeet rendering plant from which beet sugar is manufactured and sold under the label U & I Sugar. U & I Suger refers to Utah & Idaho, but also includes Colorado refineries. **Update: I consider myself a historian of the US Sugar Industry and know for a fact that during this mill's operation from 1905-1985, it was never owned by U&I Sugar nor had U&I Sugar packaged at this plant. Utah-Idaho Sugar never owned nor operated any mills in Colorado. Tony Hernandez 01/18/06**

Directions: On US 6 at the southern edge of Sterling, Colorado, just beyond the city limits. From US 6 Northbound, turn right at Factory St., cross over S. Front St., and the mill is just beyond the Union Pacific RR track, easily seen from S. Front St. and even US 6.
