introduced last year, the state would
have supplied this drug free of charge,

The Meaning of a Holiday.


The request OF the Rutgers co llege
students that they be given a holiday
February ID instead of the twenty sec.
oud is interesting. The students argue
that as the thirteenth is 10 be ob-
served as Linooln's birthday, which
falls On Sunday this year, it would be
fitting to close the college on that day
and it would be much more acceptable
to them because the twenty-second,
which is Washington birthday falls
on Wednesday. By getting the first
day of the week, the students would
have three days in succession for
themselves.
AS far rs q vacation goes this argu.
mont is good, hut where does the
celebration Of tho notable event come
in? The twenty second of February
was made Il holiday in honor OF
George Washington, the father of his
country. 1t was not es tablishel that
people might have q vacation. There
il sentiment in the date and the day
is properly recognized throughout the
lani. But of what honor is it TO
Washington memory TO close n
school OF the thirteenth of February
and teach on the twenty second. In
other words, the students see pothiuG
of the real meaning Of February %.
In their eyes. il is merely a holiday
when they are excused from all
classes. As well might they petition
the faculty to bunch all the holidays
Of tie year into a single week or two
and tack it on to the Christmas vaca-
ton and then teach straight through
the year until commencement time.
Or, it might properly be asked Why
have February .? a holiday Mt all:
There is no honor to the frs presi.
dGut CT tie United States if classes
are held as usual on his birthday, evan
if the students should he given u
weeks vacation at some other date,
instead CT observing that day. The
students might as we'll ask that all
holidays which occur in the middle Of
the week be observed On Monday 80.
tI.at they would have three days in
succession for a vacation.
Rutgers under grads conception
of February % is wrong, They ~hould
be taught a little more United States
history that they might have more re
spect for George Washington.

SUGAR MAKING
CAMPAIGN OPENS
The Factory Now at
Work on Holly
Beet Sugar

e.dtiols OF modern constructive
skill and Of tho modern produc-
tive power Of capital and labor is
the great angar factory that raises
its massive walls and towering
smoke funnel on the old Barroll
farm northwest of town, where up
t,the frat day OF March last there
was only IN alfalfa field. A struc-
tare 45O feet long and 20) feet
wide and rising in some parts to
s5ven stories I'D height, all filled
wifli intricate machinery almost
as compactly as Il watch. and all
moving with the rymtliic smooth
tie,i- of "a watch. haiit in ~ short.
Il D",lod Of tune is 4 u,onment TO
Ire im%4r OF conee ntratrd energy
and eAeru; v ability.
The hul.!ino in which The beet
juice is extracted and it's sacch4-
rine matter made into sugar is of
course the main structure of the
plant, and the one in which mod
ern inventiveness is most remark
ably displayed. But all around it
are grouped the auxiliary build
inEs aud equipment that are no
iess important. as supplying the
motive power and the raw mater
ial upon which the finer and more
intricate machinery of the great
sugar plant exerts itself.
On the west side is the beet
dump. This is a rooted structure
of framed timbers, having elevat-
ed wagon roads and railroad
tracks 80 situated that wagons and
rail cars may dump their loads in
to sloping bins who's. pointed
bottoms are on line with open
conduit. Of swift running water.
These bins have capacity of sew
ersl thousand tons of beets. The
beets drop through the bottom of
these sloped bins or schutes into
the water and are carried by the
current into the factory. A large
screw forces them up an incline
into the bath tub where such
earth as was not removed in their
float from the bins is washed off
them by a rotating paddle stirring
them IN the water of the bath.
A perpendicular conveyor with
cups catches them from the bath
and carries them to the upper
floor where they are dumped into
an automatic weigh scale which,
as soon as it tips the beam at half
a ton, dumps them again into the
cutter. Here the beets are sliced
into small oblong pieces of n V
shape. In this shape they are
carried upon an endless belt that
forms the bottom of conveying
box and are dumped or distribut-
ed into jug like receptscles called
the diffusion batteries. Here hot
water is turned upon the sliced
heets and the syrup is separated
from the pulp. The former is car
ried into the saturalion tanks and
pulp is conveyed back near to the
point of starting and emptied into
transverse trough, aud from
there it is carried either to the
cars or to the farmers wagons.
In the saturation watts the juice is
mixed with Stacked lime, thick
ened to nearly the consistency Of
cream. Here the grosser impuri-
ties Of the juice are taken up by
the lime aud then the lime is TAX
en- out by means of a gas which
is produced in the lime kiln. The

through the building one would
declare that he had climbel
'nie IF S.airray III ctaein., an
atom OF saccha.i i"e matter from
the beet dump 10 the sugar ware
housr.
The latter is locn,e,l at the south
end of the main building and is a
one story annex where the manu-
factured article is stored until
shipment The railway track RUS
close to it's doors.
Parallel to the main building
and to the east of it stands the
immense boiler house and ma
chine shop. Twenty brick k-set
furnace boilers here make steam
for all the sugar making processe,
and also furnish the driving pow
or for large engine and an i'm
mense electric dynamo motor
within the factory, and for an e,d-
less number of pony engines,
pumps and winches scattered all
oyer the plant. From this inn
mense boiler house at it's south
end great steel chimney twelve
feet in diamet r rises l25 feet in
to the air.
At the opposite end OF the boil
er house stands brick and steel
building eighty feet high. This
is the lime kiln, which supplies
fresh burned lime and carbonic
acid gas for the chemical process
es Of sugar making. The lime is
burned wi hin two steel tanks
each probably twenty feet in di-
ameter, which extend from the
floor. to the to3 of the building
and are lined with twelye-inch
wall of fire brick. The lime stone
and the coke for burning it is put
in at the bottom and conveyed to
the top by machinery. After the
burning process is completed the
lime is conducted to the main
building through a large pipe.
It is needless to say that this is
about the hottest place about the
plant. Between the lime kiln and
the main building is to be erected
la ter an additional building where
the lime will be returned after it's
first using and cleansed from its
impurities, TO be used second
time. In the sane connection
appliances will here be erected
for working over again the dele
ferrous matter of the beet juice and
squeezing trihe more sugar out
of it. by what is known as the
Steffen's process.

How to Handle Ducklings.

Feed after thirty-siX hours boiled
eggs chopped fine for first two or three
feeds. Allow no water until first feed.
About third day feed bran and corn
meal mixed in crumbly state with
sweet milk with a little meat meal;
to this add a good portion of clean
sand, mixing thoroughly. After the
first week the above ration can be m
proved on by adding cut green clover,
onion tops, lettuce, or in fact, anything
green that would be palatable.
Never allow the old duck to carry"
the duckling, as she. would u their
legs off or drown them in no time.
Put her in a coop for a day or two and
she will be ready to. go back to the
flock.
After the ducks are two or three days
old it is a good plan to make a little
run in some quiet spot near the house
where they can be watched. placing. a
box in the run arranged S they can
hover under it.
