mass is kept warm to soften the
cells so the sugar can pass from the
vegetable matter into the water.
When the water has absorbed as
much as it will take of the sweets
and dross it is drawn off into large
pipe that carries it into kettles to be
boiled down, tho the kettles are
known as the vacuum pans.
The Vacuum Pans
If you had a kettle or pan of thin
syrup that you wanted to boil till
it was thick, you could evaporate it
better if you left the lid off. If
you kept lid on the pan it would
gather steam and condense the va
por and that would drop back into
the syrup. When it is not covered,
the vapor floats away. If the air
were very light over the pan, the
evaporation would be more rapid
and the syrup woul get thick quick
er. The vacuum pans are so SON.
structed that an air pump can be
operated to take some of the air out
of the pans and hasten evaporation.
In the Rigby factory there are five
of these pans, each one holding, per-
haps, thousand gallons, and steam
pipes leading thru where the beet
Juice stands to heat it. The steam
heats it and the vacuum helps to
lift the vapors off. When the juice
is in the first tank it is heated with
the steam l was telling you about,
that had worked the electric gen.
orators and the water pump at the
big we'll, and now it passes into the
first vacuum pan where greatest heat
is required to heat the juice. Then
it passes into the next pan where
less heat is required, and it keeps
on down the line until it has served
in the fifth pan, and by that time
it is exhausted. In these different
pans there is different vacuum cor
responding to the lower heat and
pressure of the steam, so that the

they lived their lonely existence.

juice or syrup in each pan has just
the amount of vacuum and just the
amount of steam needed in that
stage of its treatment. | think that
all the modern factories have this
kind of service, using the vacuum.
They do not work the air exactly;
they work the lack of air. 1t has
been said that in the meat packing
packing-houses that now make use
of every part of the animal but the
squeal. In these modern sugar fac
tory they use all the materials and
elements from one to seven times,
and then put the cacuums to work
besides.
What the Lime Does
Out at Arco is a mountain of lime
rock controlled by the Utah-Idaho
Sugar company, and over lin Mont
ana is another deposit controlled by
competitive company operating in
Utah. 1t is my understanding that
the Utah competitor is not allowed
to get lime rock from ArcO, and the
Utah-Idaho is not allowed to get
lime rock from the Montana depos-
it's for it's Montana operations, and
if this is true, suppose they charge
the cost of this extra shipping to
the cost of production and take it
out of the pockets of people who eat
sugar. But lime is necessary for
making sugar. They have to expose
the juice to the action of the gas
arising from burning lime rock. 1t
is known as carbon dioxide, and
each factory has to burn lime at
kiln in the factory and confine the
gas in pipes to conduct it to the
carbonators, where they turn it into
the juice. 1t is used to precipitate
or settle sectain solids in the juice
so it will separate.
Washing Grains of Sugar
When the juice has been treated
to remove the parts that are not
sugar it becomes syrup, and is pour
ed into centrifugals to rinse the
brown materials out of it. The CEN
trifugals whirl rapidly and throw
the water out thru the finely per-
forated sides of the vessel thru holes
too fine for the sugar crystals to
pass thru. It is a separation CT the

Beets, Politics and Progress
By Byrd | rego
CHAPTER XII.

When beets enter factory they
run thru a washer that rolls them
over and whips them around until
just about all the soil disappears in
the water. In most of the factories
/ have seen, the washer is somewhat
like a great auger, and as the beets
leave it they are lifted by an ordi-
nary elevator that dumps them into
the slicer; then tahey are weighed
and sliced by a cylinder that has
slicers bolted on and it turns at ter
rifle speed Then the beets in the
sliced form are known as cossetts
(accent the set. They are carried
away on a big. belt conveyor and
dumped into tanks. think there
are fourteen of these in the Rigby
factory, and the water is turned into
the tank at one end and it passes
slowly thru that tank full of cossetts,
and then passes thru pipe into the
next one and so on until it has pass
ed in thesoaking process thru all
the tanks. BY this time it is very
sweet, having absorbed part OF the
sugar. Fresh water is applied at diff
ferent times and places until the
cossetts are rinsed of nearly all their
sweets, but the water also absorbs
some things that are called dross.
Dross is the stuff that gives the we'll
developed sugar beet the nasty taste
and it has to be taken out without
destroying the sugar.
The Chemical Process
If we were all chemists this could
be printed in correct terms and we
counld understand it better, but we
are not, and there is much Of the
process that l am not sure Of l
will describe it the way | think it is
and perhaps the sugar experts will
send me correct statements to pub
lish.
. When a tank is filled with cossetts
water is turned in at the top and
steam at the bottom, and the whole

crystals from the water, the same
as a housekeeper hangs cottage
cheese in a thin cloth to hold the
curd and get rid of the fluid. If
you should put the cottage cheese
into flour-sack and swing it around
rapidly in circle, the fluid would
pass out thru the openings in the
sack. If you swung it very rapidly
it would pass out more quickly. The
centrifugals whirl so rapidly that if
the operator pours in cup of wa
ter it passes thru the sugar crys-
tails and out into space instantly.
All modern factories have the CEN
trifugals, but some of them are
equipped so there may be great
waste from that source by running
sweets off into the sewer. The Rig
by factory is built SO that waste
from careless operators is next to i'm
possible and any discard that is made
will appear so he has to account for
it if it is not put thru the regular

and using.
A Fleet of Trucks
At the Rigby factory they tried
an experiment last year wit ha fleet
of trucks and trailers for moving
beets from the farms to the factory,
and it proved economical and salts
factory from financial standpoint,
besides being such time saver it en-
abled men to egt their beets out
of the way quickly so they had more
chance to do fall blowing and other
work. The farmer hauls the beets
out of the field on his wagons and
dumps them at portable elevator
that loads them into the hopper
from which they are poured into the
trucks and trailers. Then they move
rapidly on haul that is too long
for wagons and too short for freight
ears. They have a car barn by the
factory where they keep this fleet of
machines.

Hart and His Slogan

Hill replied that it was a case of
misplaced confidence.
Hart innocently inquired further
as to how that could be.
Hill stated it was like this: "Well,
you see | was out on that alleged
sugar factory yesterday and | was
matching a conveyor. I knew of
course that | was perfectly safe in
dublin garound there in there in
the machinery because perfectly
good and reliable friend of mine has
been saying for long time that they
would never turn a wheel" Hart
cOlored little). But | saw a
strange phenomenon that looked like
wheels turning. | relied upon my
friends statement and took hold of
the belt near a wheel, knowing that
it was not turning, and the next
thing | knew the ind of mu thumb
was clipped off by a turning wheel.
l knew that my confidence had been
misplaced"

A number of modest little farms op-
Grated by veterans of the world war,
who have recovered from severe she'll
shock, gas or wounds, now dot the
states of New Jersey, Connecticut and
New York. The owners of these
farms, most of them graduates Of the
New York State School of Agriculture
at Farmingdale, L. l., have been ire
habilitated" and are now making good
as food producers with the same en-
thusiasm that took them lover the
top" in France.
The Transformation of most of these
former soldiers who selected farming
from among the subjects offered by
the federal board for vocational train
ing In many cases has been complete
metamorphosis of railroad brakemen,
plumbers, policemen, mechanics and
laborers. One recent graduate Of the
school was a bartender before the
war, and today he owns thoroughly
up-to-date place near Toms River.

Director Praises Work.
According to A. A. johnson, director
Of the school, there were 76 federal
board men enrolled In June, and
number of these have since graduated.
Director Johnson was lavish in his
praise of what the solder-farmers are
accomplishing, declaring that not only
were they doing their full share in
the economic program or .their coun-
try, but Tin a good many cases con-
siderably more than others less handi-
capped by wounds He said they
were about equally divided as farm
tractor mechanics, general farmers,
poultry raisers and hog breeders.
Archie A. Stone, former member Of
the Minnesota legislature. who Is in
charge of the work for the govern
ment, and has studied the results of
the farm vocational training plan, said
that it is producing results Of a def
mite and permanent character. The
students may have both theory and
practice at Farmingdale 365 days In
the year.
Cripples Work Unhampered.
Michael Leddy. who lost an arm at
Chateau-Thierry, is specializing In
tractor work, and with one hand and
steel hook, drives as straight fur
row. 1t is said as any two-handed
farm boy.
A year ago Charles Kupinski, an
other crippled soldier, had never even
ridden in motor car. Recently, ac-
cording to Director Johnson, he re-
paired a cracked cylinder In heavy
farm tractor at saving of nearly
5000 to the school.
Other soldier graduates Of Farming
dale who are operating farms are
Harry F. Cruise at HobroOk, l.. l.;
Edison S. Smith, New Canaan. Conn;
Elmer e. Sturtz, Wellersburg. Pa;
Austin A. Sullivan. Ronkonkoma, l.. l.,
