Luncheon for Child
An Old Problem

School days are here again, and
as the children start back to study
the problem Of their lunches unpleas-
antly confronts many a mother.
In big cities IL is almost impossible for
the little one 10 return home for a warm
midday meal. and so a lunch must be
prepared for Ave mornings each week
for at least nine months Of the year.
What 10 put in these baskets distracts
most mothers. so they fan hack on the
unwise expedient of putting Up the
same thing day after day. until the
cLid. sIc&ened by the nlonotony, either
loses its appetite or spends the weekly
allowance on cnean sweets and cakes.
In many OF the big schools Of late
there IS a place where the scholars may
buy nouTisning broths. q glass OF milk.
sandwiches, and other inviting and
healthful food at a nominal cost In
such cases it will be found much easier.
as well as fully as cheap, TO set aside
a stated sum each week for the school
lunches.
True, the little ones may buy ice
cream instead Of soup. and cake or pie
I'm preference to sandwiches. but this
nay easily be reguleted by parental in
junction or even by a few words 10 the
keeper OF the refreshments, asking her
not to sell certain foods TO a special
child without a note from the mother.
Do net, however, omit to give the
small boy or girl permission to indulge
in sweets or ice cream at least once a
week, as It Is a positive grief to chill
dren not to be able 10 eat the things
I their schoolmates are enjoying.

THE SUGAR BEET
PROPOSITION
We hope soon to see Roosevelt
county become a great producer OF
sugar beets. Regarding sugar fac
tories Secretary Wilson believes
that it would be advantage to pro-
duce the crude sugar in small in
expensive factories. From the
Morgan county Colorado Herald
we copy Secretary Wilson's ex-
preston on the subject, as follows:
IF there could be one big refln-
ing factory in the district and then
a number OF small plants scattered
through the section, which could
reduce the beets to crude sugar,
returning the pulp Immediately to
the farmers, it would enable them
to use their pulp to great advan-
tage and would stimulate beet
growing. Another important adj
vantage would be the more eco
nomical conduct of the larger fac
tory. Now as you know the great
factories can be IL but a short
time each year, and during the
rest OF the time the interest on the
plant cuts into the profits. 1t we
can produce crude sugar at small
and inexpensive factories, that
product being imperishable, could
be worked up gradually at the man
ufactory throughout the year, and
we could thus obliviate the neces-
of shutting down at all.
The capacity of the big refinery
could be regulated according to the
prospective output of raw material
at the small factories. With such
a system of small factories the pulp
could be utilized to the very best
advantage. Ii can be stored in silos
