Obviously, its value was and is appreciated, since the cultivation of the sugar-cane and the sugar-beet has become the foundation of a great modern industry. There are some persons, perhaps, who do not realize that beside cane sugar many kinds of carbohydrate occur in our food.

Now and then he saw the small appearing and disappearing lights on some small rise. He would reach the spot, with such shelter as possible, to find only a sugar-beet field, neglected and unplowed. Then, one night, tragedy came to the little house of mercy. Harvey proceeded to put his plan into effect at once, with the simple method of an essentially simple nature.
Why," declared Mr. Symes, striking at the air with a gesture of conviction, "the whole country is land hungry." "It's a liberal return upon the investment," murmured Prescott. "It's a big thing! And think of the Russian Jews." "Pardon me?" "Colonization, you know, hundreds of Russian Jews out there raising sugar-beets for the sugar-beet factory, happy as larks." "To be sure I had forgotten." Mr.
The sugar-beet, grown in temperate climates, and the sugar-cane, native in tropical and semitropical regions, are the only two sources of sugar large enough to be of more than local importance. Before the war, 93 per cent of the entire world crop of beet-sugar was grown in Europe.
His present heir has imagined a benevolent use of his heritage by inviting the peasantry of the Vega to the culture of the sugar-beet; but whether the enterprise was prospering I could not say; and I do not suppose any reader of mine will care so much for it as I did in the pour of the moonlight over the roofs and towers that were now becoming Granada, and quickening my slow old emotions to a youthful glow.
It is headed by a Carlisle graduate, Charles E. Dagenett, who was trained for a business career. Considerable numbers of Indians, particularly in the Southwest, are provided with employment in the sugar-beet fields, in harvesting canteloupes and other fruits, in railroad construction, irrigation projects, and other fields of activity, and it appears that their work gives general satisfaction.
The questioner withered before Symes's scorn. "Buy it? Why, the world is land-hungry crying for land! and water. But I've considered all that; I've arranged for it," Mr. Symes went on with a touch of impatience. "We'll colonize it. We'll import Russian Jews to raise sugar-beets for the sugar-beet factory which we will establish.
And the Reo groaned and puffed. Up through Colorado they chugged; past Pike's Peak; through Denver, flat on the plain with a blue mountain wall to its west; on through the farmlands north of it to the sugar-beet town which was their goal. Beyond the town stood an adobe village for beetworkers on the Lukes fields, where the Beechams were to work.
Some are as thick as the arm and edible, others are not thicker than a finger and of a woody composition, and the structure of this woody variety is very interesting. The sugar-beet consists, as is generally known, of concentric layers of sugar-tissue and of vascular strands; the larger the first and the smaller the latter, the greater is, as a rule, the average amount of sugar of the race.
