Yearly, Says Secretary Wilson.
SUGAR BEETs THE REMEDY.
We Could Raise Enough of Them In
Ono State, Declares the Secretary oi
Agriculture, to Supply the Needs o,
the Whole Nation.
BY JAMES WILSON,
Secretary of Agriculture.

One would think that we had enough
sunshine and wind and rain in this
country for all our needs, but Mt pres
ent we are paying out to foreign ma
tons the good round sum of $1OO 600.
600 each year for these things. This
amount slips away from us for our an
nual importations of sugar. which
comes simply from the carbon dioxide
of the atmosphere. There is no reason
why we should not save this amount
for our own people. our farmers and
laborers, and SO on. We could grow
enough sugar beets in a single state to
supply the needs of the entire nation.
hope some day we shall grow all the
sugar we need right here at home. But
at present we are paying this enormous
sum each year to the cane producer in
the tropics. employing the cheapest la
Dor under foreign flag.
When first entered the cabinet as
Secretary of Agriculture under Presi
dent Mckinley in 1897 l had been con.
nected with the Iowa State Agricul.
tural college for six years, and out
there we had made experiments which
taught us the great value of the sugar
beet not only for its sugar, but as an
aid to the other crops and in its by
products as food for the stock.
We made experiments with all sorts
of root crops-potatOes, sugar beets.
turnips, and so onto ascertain which
would be the most profitable for the
Iowa farmers and dairymen. We had
a large herd of dairy cows. and we
tested these different vegetables on
the cows to learn their effect in til
production of milk and butter. We
found that we could not get good re-
suits from turnips, potatoes and cab

bages because of n deleterious acid
that affected the butter, but from
sugar beets we got fine quality of
butter. The Importance of this is in
the fact that the farmer needs TO use
the ground. The cultivation required
by such n crop improves the yield of
all succeeding crops.
Europe had learned the value of the
beet, and the northern continental ma
tions were making their own sugar
from 1t and by using 1t In rotatio.
with other crops had been obtaining
surprisingly big yields per acre. But
here we had been backward in realiz-
into the cabinet the United States had
produced only 10000 tons OF beet
sugar.
1 managed to get public spirited per-
sons to contribute beet seed to begin
Investigations, and we found that the
two northern tiers of states had the
most favorable conditions for beet cul-
ture. We made elaborate inquiries,
sent seed in all directions and had the
beets sent back to us for testings.
At the same time we started en-
couraging beet growing in the north
we began to stimulate the growing of
rice in the south. And l anticipated
that by this time our farmers would
be growing enough of each of these
products for our needs. But, while they
grow today substantially as much rice
as is consumed in the United States,
the beet crop furnishes only small
proportion of our sugar. 1t is more
difficult to educate our farmers to
beet raising. 1t is more complicated
form of activity.
Last year our sugar beet crop netted
595.455 tons of sugar, worth s65.5o5,-
600. OF this the farmers received about
S2G.350OOO for the beets, fraction
over 40 per cent. The beet tops brought
SO an acre, amounting to S1,35s.47s;
the pulp left after the sugar is ex-
tracted from the beetsl was worth
S3.G33, Jos and the molasses. n by
product of the sugar, $1,211 .O3G. So
the total value of the crop was over
SI0.0O0.oO0
There is no more profitable crop than
the sugar beet.

pisadvantase. Of Various Soils.

Clay soils are unfavorable to vegeta-
tion because the soil is too close and
adhesive to allow the free passage of
air or water TO the roots of the plants.
1t also obstructs the expansion of the
fibers of the root. Sandy soils are un-
favorable because they consist of par
hcles that have too little adhesion to
each other. They do not retain sufii-
cient moisture for the nourishmeni Of
the plants. They allow too much solar
heat to pass to the roots. Chalk soils
are unfavOrable because they do not
absorb the solar heat and are therefore

Facts About ice Waste aastte

When ice is once in your re-
frigerator there is practically ne
melting waste. From that time
the melting generates cold air, the
sole purpose for putting the ice in
there.
The real waste comes from try
ing to get along without ice enough

around again. When ice gives
out the temperature may become
high enough to spoil a dollars
worth of meat and vegetables, to
say nothing Of the additional ex-
pense Of cooling the refrigerator
again.
: The best way to stop ice waste
is to order enough, with a little
to spare, then you never have to
worry about the coming of the
ice wagon.
