You don't and can't if your stomach

It gets tired easily, and what it fails to
digest is wasted.
Among the signs of weak stomach
are uneasiness after eating, fits of ner-
vous headache, and disagreeable belch-

Sugar Beets on Arid Lands.

The high cost of irrigating th'
arid lands renders it imperative
that their culture be devoted to {
crop of the highes t value. "Of al
the home markets for our domestic
agricultural prod ucts, there is none
so insistant nor SO expansive at
that for sugar." says H. w. Wiley
of the United Sta ties department OF
Agriculture, with annual con-
sumption of 100000 tons, and 2
certainty of rapid increase, the de-
mand for sugar promises to be- the
salvation of American agriculture "
Speaking of the arid lands as a
producer of sugar beets the same
authority says:
''In dry soil the beet can en-
dure without damage low temper
allure, which would prove quite dis
astrous in a wet climate. More
complete maturity may be thus OBJ
tanned, and a mo- leisurely har-
vest. In fact, the re is no staple
crop which can compete with the
sugar beet in demanding the favor
able attention of those interested in
irrigation. If a net profit of from
$40 to $50 per acre can be secured
from 800 to 5000 per acre can be
paid for the land
1t will be obvious from the fore
going that Idaho possesses many
natural advantages for the culture
of sugar beets. Happily, the soil
has sufficient natural fertility to
produce good crop of beets, and
the use OF fertilizers would be I'M
necessary for many years to come,
added to this, the natural adapta-
bilitv of the sugar beet to the soil
and climatic conditions together
its economy in the consumption of
water should make it a great factor
in the agriculture Of the state, IN
I'll the government has adopted leg
islation 80 much needed in the arid
lands, water will continue grow
ing monopoly, approaching in cost
until the agriculturist will be
forced to seek more remunerative
yield than that afforded by cereal
culture. That the sugar beet offers
the most valuable yield is evidenced
by the experiments in Nebraska,
Colorado, Utah and many other
arid states. Where these expert
ments have been conducted the
farmers have cleared from $40 to
500 per acre, and land values
have consequently doubled and
trebled.
