Cook Book by NeIioh Guild.

one of the most attractive cook
books that has ever been prepared in
Nebraska is that which has just been
published by the Woman's Giuld Of St
Peters Episcopal church at Neigh.
The book contains cighty-four pages
of successful recipes which have been
tried by the good cooks of Neigh
and found cminently satisfactory. The
work is worth much more than the
fifty cents asked for it by the ladies
of the guild.
The new cook book is dedicated "to
those plucky women who master their
work instead of allowing their work
to master them"
Result of Long Work.
In the preface the authors say:
THE ladies of St. Peters Guild have
carefully prepared the recipes con
tanned in this book, many of which
have been contributed by other ladies,
and in presenting this book to the
public we are confident that all that
it contains has been tried and tested
and that these recipes are among the
best that could be found Our grand.
mothers used to say Good cooks need
no recipes and although the appe-
tites of our childhood were willing TO
acknowledge this statement, years Of
experience have taught us that cook.
ing is an art that requires our at
tcntiCn and study
And the ladies of Neigh have sum
med up the fruitful results of those
years of attention and study in giving
to society this very excellent cook
book.
This little verse is found as a fore
word:
Athenaeus afirms,
Worthy tribute to bring,
That a man among men,
Who can cook is king.
Now if that is the case,
And It's plain to be seen,
A cook among women
Must walk as queen.
The book is entitled, Guild Cook
Book" II is substantially bound in
white oilcloth which will add to the
neatness of the kitchen as we'll as
Withstand the effects of water in
which the book might at times acct
dentally find itself.
The new book is from the press
and bindery of the Huse Publishing
company of Norfolk.

Eggs 80 Cents Per Dozen.

For the first time in twenty-five
years, according to local dealers, the
price of eggs in Nebraska in the
autumn is 80 cents per dozen. And
the product is selling at that without
any letup in the demand.
"In twenty-five years." said one
dealer, 81 have never known the price
of eggs in the fall of the year to sc
above % cents. In the bitterest cold
weather of winter have seen the
price at so cents, but that was whcl
eggs were simply out of the question
at any price
Merchants say that the consumer Is
not going without eggs even though
the price is high. The housewife
wants them just the same. And has
the money to pay for them.

Is SUGAR Beet to Survive?


Are the people of Colorado to sec
the death Of the beet sugar industry,
just as Norfolk did, because Of lack
of bcets with which to run the fac
tories?
The factory at Lamar, which was
removed to that place from Norfolk,
is standing idle this year because the
farmers of that vicinity did not raise
beets enough to run the plant It
was not due to drouth, but due to the
fact that outside the immediate vicn-
ity of Lamar the farmers raised other
things than boots. This is the vcr-
sion of the situation brought to Nor
folk by Clarence Gerccke, who is just
home from Colorado.
Las Animas Plant in Danger.
Mr.. GcrcCEe also says that the fac
tory at Las Animas, Colo, the largest
sugar factory in the world at this
lime, is in danger of not running next
year because the farmers Of that Soc
tion won't raise the bcets.
The United States marine hospital
| ocated here, lie says, proves too at
ractiye to the farmers to allow the
beet to flourish. This hospital furn-
shes "A market for all sorts of farm
| produce at high prices and the beet,
which requires hard work, suffers as
| / consequence.
The factory which ran i'm Norfolk
| 'or thirteen years. and which later
was dsmantled and shipped to La
mar, Colo, was finally closed, the fac
tory people said because the farmers
here did not raise enough bcots with
which to supply it,
And it was argued that the farmers
here could too easily raise other crops
to Justify them in the extraordinarily
hard work Of beet raising.
The factory people dismantlcd the
plant here, shipped it to Lamar, Colo
and now, four years later, find the
factory standing idle owing to the
same condition there which, in Nor
folk, caused them to move.
The question naturally arises, In
view of such a situation, whether or
not the beet sugar factory industry
is to survive or perish in America.
Beet Crowded Out.
Upon the face of things It would
appear that as fast as soil becomes
suited to the raising of other kinds
of crops, requiring not so much hard
work and close attention, the beet
loses out. And experience seems to
indicate that it requires only a few
years, with the progress irrigation is
making, to so cultivate any soil That
it will produce many crops beside the
beet.
With this shutting down Of factor
les owing to a lack of the supply of
beets, and with the inclination to cut
down the tariff on sugar, which will
in turn cut down the prices even now
paid for bects as an induccmont to
get them grown, the observer can not
but wonder whether the beet sugar
industry is to live or die in the United
States.
The removal of the beet sugar fac
tory from Norfolk left a magnificent
factory building, with much fertile
land, in the hands of the original
local donors to the industry. For
four years that factory now has stood
empty and idle, and at this time no
steps, so far as known, are being
taken by anybody to get new indus
try to use the buildings.

Professor Wood refused to make any
