ing been carried on there for years and
years, while out here IL is practically in
Its infancy. / am not at all sure that
some of the methods in vogue among
your farmers are those most conducive
to the best interests of either the man
ufacturer or the grower.
The general tendency here seems to be
toward producing a small light beet rich
in sugar making properties. and a pro-
nounced antipathy toward anything other
than this same small variety. Such ex-
periments as have been made have been
incomplete. and for the most part only
half successful, and the result is that
Germany Is able 10 produce much larger
beet than that grown in Utah containing
all the sugar making properties OF the
Utah product.
1T is of course obvious that more sugar
can be produced from a ton Of large beets
than from an equal amount of small ones

fectly willing to go on producing the i'm

manufacturer. TO say nothing OF the con-
sumner, would be both better served by the
cultivation of the full large sugar beet

A WISE LITTLE BEE.

Once little brown bee was invited to tea
BY little pond lily he knew,
So he fastened away that very same day
To partake of her fresh honey dew
Now this little brown bee SO delighted was
he,
That he really forgot to go home,
And fingered and slipped till the yellow
sun dipped
Far down the twilight had come.
Oh this poor little bee, how embarrassed
was hei
For his hostess then went straight to
sleep
Her green shutters closed tight, all safe
for the night,
With little bee fast in their keep.
Since then little bee, when he goes out to
tea,
To save his feelings a shock
By failing to know when home he should
go,
Just carries a red -four O'clock"
