1duIIly VIII sugar anu
syrup for a whole year.
The percentage Of SUI
gar in the beets is sur
prisingly large and any
housewife, boy or girl
can extract the sugar
with little trouble and
with such utensils as
are found in every
home. The process Is
very simple.
Soak the beets in
cold water to make
them crisp and brittle.
Scrub or clean them
thoroughly to remove
all dirt. For best re-
suits the beets should
be peeled, but If there
are large quantities to
be handled, this adds
to the labor and may
be dispensed with. The
crown, that part of the
beet from which the
leaves grow, and which
is usually Of a green
color, should be cut of
and, with the leaves,
thrown away, as it con-
tains a large amount Of
potash, which If used
will give the syrup q
sharp taste. Slice the
beets thin or CRATE
them. Put in real hot,
not boiling, water, and
