VALUE OF HOME GROWN SUGAR

VALUE OF HOME GROWN SUGAR
The people of the United States
consume over 3,750,000 long tons of
sugar annually. The nations sugar
bill amounts to over 1915, 1000, 900. OF.
this vast amount $207, ,000, 900 goes to
pay for sugar grown in foreign lands.
The nation sends in actual gold or it's
equivalent over 800, 900, 900 yearly to
foreign lands for sugar, which should
and might be expended in the employ
ment of home labor and the develop
ment of home industry.
Statistics show that during 1914
only 45 per cent of the total sugar
consumption was supplied by home
grown sugar. The question naturally
arises, How may we produce all our
sugar at home and become indepen-
dent of foreign countries for one of
our leading and most important ar
ticles of food?
A survey of our sugar producing
resources reveals the fact that the
possibility of enlarging home pro-
duction to satisfy home demand de-
pends largely upon the development
Of the beet sugar branch of the do
mestic sugar industry. In other words,
the beet sugar industry of the United
States must produce approximately
2,700,00 long tons of sugar annually
if the United States would be inde-
pendent of foreign countries for the
article.
Last year sixty beet sugar factor
les were in operation in the United
States. To produce the necessary g.
100000 tons of sugar would require
the erection Of 45O beet sugar fac
tories. To supply these factories with
heets would necessitate the cultiva-
ton of 2,4O0,0OO acres of land in beets,
and if due allowance for rotation of
crops be made, 100000 acres would
be required. The beets produced an
nually from this area would amount
to approximately 25,0O0O00 tons, for
which the farmers of the country
would receive 1926. 100000 or more.
The extraction and refining of the
sugar would require approximately
2,50O,000 tons of coal, 1913. $50 tons of
coke and 2,017,550 tons of limestone.
The total cost of these items alone
would amount to almost $4,000, 900,
all of which would add to the pros
perity of other American industries.
Almost $16,OOO,OOO would be distri-
buted to the railroads of the country
and over $18,OOO.OOO would be distri-
buted for general supplies.-Facts

Feet of a Cat,

There is nothing. especially striking
about the feet of a cat except its abil-
ity always to land on them. Hold a
young cat by its feet short distance
from the ground for few seconds and
then let go. The cats back, being
heavier than its feet, should strike the
ground first. But it doesn't Just as
the cat is being let go it gives a quick
upward thrust with its chest. and as
the feet are freed they swing under
ii so 1t lands on them. In the case of
the young cat that has never expert
enced this before it doesn't know that
it is going to be dropped. If it were a
long drop there would be time to think.
but in the short drop the cat must
act. and act Immediately. In fact. it
is really forehanded. The natural con-
clusion. then. is that this faculty in the
cat Is located in its feet, 1t is inherent
in them.-Atanta Constitution.

Sharks Euqs,

The eggs of fishes are usually small.
soft and inconspicuous. The most re-
markable point about them is the eX-
traordinary number laid by the individ-
ual. \ single cod lays as many as
100000 eggs. Sharks lay eggs WHICH
are large in size, fee as to numbers
and are deposited singly instead of in
masses. These eggs consist of dark
colored leathery envelope and are
usually adorned with frills, horns or
long twisted tendrils. These append
ages serve the purpose Of keeping the
egg case supported among the branches
of seaweeds, thus preserving the en-
bryo from the damage it would sus-
tain were the egg carried hither and
thither by the waves.-Scientific Amer

ROUGH MUSIC,

There are more ways than one to
punish evildoers. Did you ever hear
of chastising wife beater by means

which the children have played with.
1t is even worse. 1t has been in use In
the southern counties Of England for
at least four centuries, and it is so
effective that it is likely to persist for
several centuries to come. The one
disadvantage Of this method Of pun
lshmemt is that it Furnishes the victim
quite as much as it does the guilty
party. 1t is inflicted on men and wo-
men alike but it is most merciless
when it is directed against the hen
pecked husband.
