The situation in the case Of the

taking work such strains can be pro-
duced.
No intelligent study of cultural
methods in the production of sugar
beets or of problems involving Il
comparison of varieties can be made
until uniform and liked varieties with
which to work are available.
The production of strains having
roots of uniform size and habit of
growth and capable of yielding seed
stalks uniform in habit of growth
and maturity should make possible
improved cultural methods, especially
in the planting of the roots and in
the harvesting of the seed, that will
reduce greatly the cost of production.
After seed harvest the beet roots
and stalks remain in the ground in a
sound and %palatable condition for
live stock feed. The present practice
is to feed these roots in the field,
utilizing them as pasture.
The beet-sugar Industry in the
United States is composed of three
distinct branches, namely, beet-seed
production, s~ugar-beet growing, and
~beet-sugar extraction and refining.
They are so linked that each is de-
pendent upon the others, not only for
it's complete success but for it's very
existence. Without seed the sugar
beet industry, in which more than
10000 American farmers are directly
interested, could not exist, and with
out beets the "a b~eet-sugar mills now
standing, with an invested capital of
more tina 800, 0OO, 900. would be idle.
The beet-Sugar industry is, of course,
the foundation upon which sugar
beet growing and beet-sugar extrac-
ton rests. Because of its fundamen-
tai character, it is surprising that
sugar-beet seed production in this
country has not received more gen
eral and more earnest attention in the
past. The two primary causes that
have operated against the development
of the sugar-beet seed industry in this
country were 1) the fact hat a suf-
ficient quantity of eed to meet our re-
Quirements was easily obtainable from
European countries at a reasonable
price and (2) the prevailing idea that
conditions in this country, from the
standpoint either of labor cost or OF
climate, would not permit the success
full development of the seed industry in
the United States. Recent experiences
however, have shown the folly of de
pending upon foreign countries for oul
beet-seed supply, while experiment.
extending ove many years have
proved the falsity of the opinion rela
tive to labor and climatic conditions.

CORN CROPS OF THE WORLD
Most of Countries Of Europe Are I'm
porters@United States and Argen-
tina Greatest Producers.

Among the entente allies Italy is the
only country which produces corn on
a large scale. Her Gro usually ex-
ceeds 1%OO.OOO,OOO bushels. Some Of
this is used up in food products, but
not under such homely forms as the
hominy n corn pone of the United
States. Austria-Hungary, nOtwith-
standing her own production, is an i'm
porter of corn, as is Germany. France
raises a small crop Of her own it rare
~ exceeds 100000 bushels, and or
dinarily she imports about the same
quantity. The United Kingdom, which
is not a corn-growing country, does not
import large quantities in proportion
to the population. The imports range
from 100000 O to 100000 900 bushels.
Mex to the United States the Argen-
tine republic is the chief c-orn-prOduc-
ing country in the western hemisphere.
Her crop sometimes exceeds 100000
600 bushels. The domestic consump-
ton is not great. The native popula-
ton uses corn as food, but a large
proportion of the people of Argentina
are from the Mediterranean countries,
and are not accustomed to this diet,
even when they are themselves the
! producers.
In 1914. when Argentina produced
approximately 263, 100000 bushels, she
exported about 14O,OOO,OOO bushels.
The balance was used for stock feed
ing. This year it is understood that
crop conditions will make available
a considerable quantity of corn for ex-
port to Europe, if the allies want it. Ar
g~entina exports corn to the United
States, Notwithstanding u WI album
dant crop, but this is because of GER
tain qualities which mak the Argen-
tine corn useful for glucose and SINH
lar products.

"THE WOMAN YOU ARE TO BE-"
1t All Depends, Says Writer, Upon
What You Put Into Your Head
as Days of Girlhood Pass.

There m a time in a girls life
when she passes from childhood into
the land of dreams and flowers, and
the question that now arises has to
do with the woman that she will be for
the rest of her life. Is she going to
furnish the nice, clean recesses of her
brain with things that really count, or
is she going to toss an indiscriminate
mass of jumbled nonsense into her
heart?
She has it within herself to make
her brain a power, to teach it to rea-
son, to cram it with intelligence, and
to force herself as a personality to re-
spond, says the Pittsburgh Dispatch.
There is still another thing that she
may choose to do-she may decide to
leave it entirely empty. In that case,
which is the saddest of all, her eyes
will count for nothing, ven though
they be beautiful, for they will be ex-
p~ressionless her lips that, closed, are
so perfect in contour, when opened
will frame those tawdry nothings so
pitifully evident of the empty brain
behind them. Old age will have moth
ing of interest in it's wake, for the
wrinkles and lines that speak for
character Will be absent, and the face,
pleasing in youth because of its fresh
beauty. in old age will become moth
ing but a hideous mask.
Think well what you will put into
your head, for you will purchase from
Life itself at a high price.

SAYS RULER IS TRICKSTER
Speaker Tells Story of Ingenious Hog
Rattle to Express His opinion Of
King of Greece.

"King Constantine is a trickster, and

"King Constantine is II trickster and
he always gets away with it. He's as
bad as the two s%harpers.

"'To be rafied, a fine Berkshire hog.

1.-THE rattle went well. The two
sharpers made a lot of money-S150, in
fact. Their came the day when the
result was to be announced.
1.-THE sharpers read over their list
of victims and selected the man they
thought most gullable and meek. To
him they wrote
"fDear Sir: We are happy to in
form you that the rafie of the magnif-
cent hog was held last evening, and

Rising Curve of Human Energy.

AS a matter of health, it will be much
better to begin the day earlier and end
it earlier. Humanity has a definite
cycle of physiological changes that take
place during the twenty-four hours. In
the early morning, temperature, pulse
and respiration are lowest, but begin
to rise. They reach a maximum in the
early evening hours, between -four and
six. and hen begin to descend again.
1t is on the rising curve of human
energy hat the days work ought to
be done. Rest should be as far as pos
sible during the hours when the cycle
of energy is on the descent. The pro
posed scheme for daylight saving
would bring us back to be more in ac-
cord with the human physiological
sycle in the t~wenty-four hours than is
true at present,

At the Minnesota experiment station
more pigs have been maintained on n
given area with the p~asturage of rape
than any other forage crop- Red clover
is also an excellent pasture, more pal
atable than rape and nearly as good
as alfalfa. Bluegrass is extensively
used for a hog pasture and serves this
purpose well until it becomes more or
less dead during the late summer. Rye
is sown for a late fall and early spring
pasture.
