to Maria Parloa for the improvement

that she was one OF the foremost of
the advocates of a soner diet and that
she contributed materially to n GU
linary reform OF which the present
generation is enjoying the benefit ad-
nits OF no question. Miss Parloa was
one OF the first to apply scientific meth
DDS to cooking and to instill the prin.
:iples of domestic economy in Amer.

lectures she carried on a propaganda

aoubtedly not SO prevalent. The fry

evidence. Breakfasts have grown sim
pler; they no longer burden the diges-

and meats More intelligence is put
INTO the preparation OF food for the
able. The housewives efforts are now

Il was astonished that she would
allow The children to drink any kind Of
coffee, but she said Postum was the
most healthful drink in the world for
children as well as for older ones, and
that the condition of both the children
and adults showed that to be a fact.
MY first trial was a failure. The

The report sent out by Secretary
Wilson Of the department of agricul-
ture to the senate in response TO a
request from that body shows that
the beet sugar industry has become
within a few years one of great i'm"
portance to the country as a whole,
ana it may be added that this i'm
portance Is emphasized when the re-
lation Of the industry to particular To-
calities is considered.
In 1898 the production Of beet sugar
in the United States amounted to only
1000 tons, but in 1908 it reached a
total OF $4,000 tons. Thus in Il
years It was multiplied ten times; ana

In view of the great Importance OF
the industry to localities where con
ditions for its development are favor
able, and when the possibilities of ia
urc growth are considered. it be
comes evident that congress should
do nothing to impede its progress.
