SATURDAY EVENING. JAN %, ~ s
THE SUGAR BEET.

The sugar beet convention III FftG C.
ericksburg was called to order yes'er-
day morning by President 2. n Brent,
of the Business Mems Association.
Delegates were present from the twet-
ty-fve counties embraced IN the cali.
Major o. E. Hine, of the State Board
of Agriculture, was elected chairman,
and S. G. Howison, of Spotsy lvana,
secretary. Mr.. Frank Hume, OF Alex
andris county, is one of the vice presi-
dents
Colonel ]. S. Potter, of Fredericks-
burg. delivered an exhaustive address
on the subject of sugar beet cultivation
in that section.
Major Hine addressed the conven-
ton along the same line, giving some
interesting statistics, and urging the
farmers to experiment. He was TO-.
lowed by c. F. Saylor, sugar beet ex-
pert of the United States Department
of Agriculture, whose address was the
most interesting of the day. He ad-
vised the farmers and the Business
Mems Association to go slow III the
matter, and TO take no false step. He
was in possession of facts about that
section which made him feel certaiu
that the land was adapted TO the Gu
tivation OF the beet on profitable
basis.
In the afternoon the convention elec'-
ed the following gentlemen 10 cons'i

ham, of Stanton, who has been cor
nected with bee,-sugar raising and It's
manufacture, delivered strong ami
excellent address on the subject. h.
r. Harrison, of Richmond, followed,
and precipitated debate by asking
the sense of the convention on the en-
ployment of convict labor, as proposed
By the Flood DILL, now before the legis
lature. After hearing several gentle.
men on the question, among then
Colonel Thomas W. Whitehead, State
commissioner of agriculture, the con-
vention adopted the following:
"Resolved, That it is the sense Of
this convention that labor be employed
for the cultivation of the sugar beet
under such restrictions by the Legisla
ture as will prevent its coming in con-
petition with honest labor"
After this matter was thus disposed
of. the convention heard Colonel
Whitehead and Mr.. Albert Kloss, Of
Baltimore, an expert, after which it
adjourned.

however, amateur handicTaft is so thorough
~ dissanced by expert work that its ofIer-
ingS are not always quite acceptable. Moth
ers still delight in the more or less unsklIl-
full efforts of their children in the production
of gifts, but probably only mothers are stllI
thus tolerant. To take pains to choose the
thing, however that is sure to please or
that is much desired is preserving the per-
sonal touch in the gift. Indeed, IN these
busy and exhausting days, to give of ones
leisure and strength in any direcuon Is
large bestowal.
Another characteristic of a Christmas gift

for that, choose of the lot the smallest and
daintiest rather than the largest and show
lest. Pay dollar for a very nice thing of
its kind rather than a dollar for something
that should cost if it were of the highest
grade, two dollars. This, by the way, is a
good ethical principle that applies to more
than Christmas gifts.
There was never a time when Christmas
buying offered so many advantages. The
shops are filled with beautiful and artistic
things at reasonable prices. A ten-dollar
bill goes this year a long way in buying
really attractive gifts. MOI only are we
better housed and better fed at lower prices
than ever before, but the small luXuries of
life are within the reach of more persons:
One has only to the advertisements Of
the various shops to see how formerly ex-
pensive things have become moderate in
price. This, too, without any loss, but often
an increase, in their worth and beauty. In
particular is this true Of the toilet and ward
robe belongings in silver, ebony and leather.
Where ten years ago $25 had to be invested,
ten is spent now for handsomer articles.
Three and five dollars to-day buy better
umbrellas than eight and twelve did a few
years ago. This fact should be recalled in
making up the list of gifts Shopping ira
ditions die slowly and persons continue to
think articles still out of their reach that
are really well within it.

New Kind of Cooking school.

New York Post.
1t has been proved that classes for serv-
ants in actual service are not much patron
lied by the persons for whom they are orig
inally designed. Waitress courses in various
domestic science institutions count ten mis-
tresses to one maid, and that proportion is
met with in other classes of the same grade.
An uptown woman. whose cook is very
satisfactory in many particulars, but who
failed in some departments of cooking, nota-
bly, salads and desserts, tried to send her
to a neighboring cooking school to perfect
herself in the branches of her trade in which
she was deficient. The time was to be given
to her and her tuition paid, but the cook did
not like to go, and could not be persuaded
to. In this dilemma it occurred to the mis-
tress to get up class in her own kitchen,
asking as pupils the cooks of friends. A
class of twenty was quickly secured, the
demonstrations taking place in the large and
Well-equipped kitchen of the promoter of the
enterprise. The expense of the teacher and
materials was shared among the mistresses
and the end desired, that of improving the
ability of each cook. was gained. The teach
er was clever enough to suit her demonstra-
tons to her audience, and not to ask that
too voluminous notes should DE taken. There
seems genuine field here that has not yet
developed. and it is perhaps by thus carry
ing the missionary work right into the
household that the conditions in our kitch-
ems may be improved.
