'Nell M. Judd, dlroctor of tlie
Pueblo Bonlto Expedition of the Na
tional Geographic society, Urft Wash
ington recently to rcsuino exploration
of the most Important prehlntorlc
mln In tho United Slates at Chuco
Canyon, New Mexico.
By May 15, IihIIhub will lo swarm
ing over the walls of thd ancient vil
lage, teams will drnir wagon loads of
earth and stone away, and steel dump
cars will scurry back and forth over
a : miniature railroad. Almost over
night a canyon which has been do
sorted since years before Columbus
came, will become a bcohlvo of in
dustry. :
Pueblo Bonlto was an iborlclnal
apartment houHO of 000 rooms, four
stories high, encircled by a single
outer wail.
Viewed from the towering nortli
cliff tho ancient village Ih HomJ-circu-lar,
with tho greater portion of Its
dwellings, or suites, grouped along
the' curved side. .
A long row of one-story houses
oonncctB tho extreme wings of the
soml-elrclo. From tho middle of the
straight row a cluster of ceremonial
chambers extended to meet tho curved
section, thus dividing tho vitiligo, and
providing for each half an open
court. In these courts sacred dunces
and religious ceremonies wore per
formed. Borne ancient walls still stand' more
than 30 feet high. Its 400 ground
floor rooms occupy ah urea almost
equal to that of the U. 8. Cupltol.
i Ituoms ' of Pueblo Itonlto are
grouped ' on suites as In modern
upartmcnt houses. If they were till
occupied at the' samu tlmo' tho resi
dent population of this aboriginal
family hotel was between 1600 and
2000 persons.
The National Goorgraphlc Socloty
has been exploring Pueblo Bonlto for
three years, but many puzzling prob
lems remain to bo solved.
Where was the water supply for
this prosperous community? What
foresta furnished the hundreds of
benms used In this colossal villugo
standing now 40 miles from any
tllnber of comparable size? Exten
sive fields lu which our earliest
farmers grow corn, bcuns, squash
and other food plants now are burled.
Mr. Judd Is a widely known Amer
ican anthropologist and, within the
past ten years, haa organized and di
rected twelve urchoological expeditions.
How Cane Sugar Is Made
WASHINGTON, D, C When tho
, prlco of sugar fluctuates every Amer
ican home Is affected.
The process by which tills univer
sally used commodity is obtained from
sugar cane Is described by William
Joseph Showalter, In a communication
to the National Geographic Society,
as follows:
: "la harvesting, the canc-cuttors
first strip the blades from the stulk;
then they cut oft tho upper part of the
latter, which Is worthless except for
. replanting, since whut juice it con
tains ios:j038us vory little sftgar. One
of the strange things about Bugar cane
Is that tho saw of the growing plant
has little sugar, while In the mature
stalk the Juice Is rich In sucrose. The
action of the sun's rays seems to
transform glucose into sucrose a
transformation that cannot be accom
plished by human means.
Sugar By the Ton
"The muin body of the stalk Is cut
down nnd loaded Into the oxcarts.
In those it is hauled to the field sta
tion and placed in the-waiting cars.

and each train Is made up of thirty
cars. This makes six hundred tons of
cane to the trainload, and eight to ten
trulnloads a day aro required to keep
one of the bigger centrals In operation
for twenty-four hours.
"When the cana reaches the mill In
the must modern plants, the cars are
run, one by one. Into a cradle and
made fust thereto. A button is pressed
and the cradle rocks over on one Bide,
'ho side of the car swings loose and
the load rolls out' into a deep trend),
at the bottom of which is an endloss
stool bolt.
"On this bolt tho cane Is carried up
to the crushing rolls. A man stands
before a keyboard and by pressing the
Bevorul eloctric buttons thereon rcgu
lutes tho flow through the crusher,
which disrupts all the little sap cells
and releases a great stream of foamy
juice. Then tho crushed cane Is sent
through Bets of rollers, each time
under hoavjr pressure.
"Each Bet of rolls the cane passes
through presses It harder than the one
before. The last Bet may exert a pres
sure of a million' pounds, and when
the 'bagasse,' as the crushed cane Is
called, issues from them It is almost
as dry as tinder. It Is carried by con
veyers to the fire-boxes of the boilers,
where it is used as fuel In generating
the Bteam that drives the big mills and
big mills and bolls the cane juice. The
stream of crusliod cane flows through
the last set of rolls at a speed of seven
miles a day.
Mixing Whitewash With Cane Juice
"I maKlne big gear-wheels fourteen
feet in diameter, with cogs sixteen
inches long, three Inches doep, nnd
two Inches thick on their face. Such
aro tho trains of gears that transmit
the power from tho engines to the
rolls.
"After the Juico is pressed out of
tho cane It is thoroughly strained and
pumped Into big tanks at the top of
tho building, whore a mllk-of-lime
solution in other words, plain white
wash Is added.
"The mixture Is then heated to a
degree just above the boiling-point.
The lime neutralizes the acid in the
juice and finds affinities in some of
the foreign substances. It pulls these
to the bottom and plays the same role
of purifier In the making of sugar that
it plays In the making of iron. The
heat causes the other Impurities to
rise to the surface as scum, so that
when this preliminary process is com
pleted in the big settling tanks there
is a top layer of frothe, a middle layer
of clear juice, and a bottom layor of
mud-like solid matorlal.
"The clear juice Is drawn off and
passes through filters of excelsior. It
is then' pumped to the evaporators,
where about half of tho water is boiled
out of It.
How the Evaporator Works
"In the moro modern factories thoro
Is a chain of four evaporators working
together. Wo all learned in our school
days that tho lighter the air pressure,
tlie lower tho temperature at which
liquids boll. Tho sugar manufacturer
makos use of that princlplo in his fac
tory. Uy moans of air pumps he re
duces tho atmospheric prossuro In
each ovaiwrntor to a point bolow that
of tho preceding one.
"The Bteam that bolls the juice in
the first evaporator must' have a 'tem
perature of 215 dogrees Fahrenheit.
When this Bteam fulls below that tem
perature It passes Into the coils of the
second evaporator, where tho air pros
suro Is so reduced that the partially
cooled steam makes the liquid boil at
'203 degrocs. After it falls below that
point the steam passes on to tho third
evaporator, whore, with a still further
reduced air pressure, it is able to keep
the 'syrup bulling until it fulls below
180 degreos. The fourth evaporator
has tho air pressure reduced to a prac
tical vaccum.
"Tho steam that hns lost so much of
lis lioat as to be unable to mnintnln
tho boiling point in the third Is novor
tholoss hot enough to koop tho juico
boiling In tho fourth. More only 150
dogroos of boat Is noodod to maintain
the boiling process, lly tills arrango
mont tho juico Is bollod to the proper
consistency with only one-fourth of
tho boat, otherwise required.
Drawn Into Vacuum Pans
"Tho next stop in tho making of
sugar Is to draw tho thick Juico into
vacuum pans. More it comos into eon-
I tact with hot Btoam colls and bolls nt
n vory low temperature because of the
absence of atmospheric pressure. As
tho boiling proceeds, tho sugar crystal
lizes Into small grains. Tho man in
charge of a big vaccum pan Is known
as tho sugar mnstor. From tlmo to
time he adds fresh juico, nnd its sugar
! gradually settles on tho crystals nl-
' ready formed, which thus aro mndo to
I grow larger.
"Finally tho vacuum pan bocomes
' full of sugar and mother syrup. Tho
sugar nnd tho adhering syrup aro then
j removed to a centrifugal machine thai
acts somewhat on tho princlplo of a
cream separator. Plnced inside a per
forated basket and whirled around at
from 1000 to 14000 revolutions a min
ute, all of tho syrup Is forcod out thru
the perforations, while tho crystallized
sugar remains behind.
This syrup la bollod , again, after
which a sued bod of crystals from tho
vacuum pan has been reparod. There
It gradually deposits Its sweetness on
these crystals, and, when It has given
up nil that Is worth waiting tor, the
mixture goes back to the centrifugal
machines, where Its adhering syrup is
hurled out from this second lot of
crystals. The process Is repented
again, nnd by this tlmo all tho avail
able sweetness has been extracted.
nnd tho remaining liquor Is tho 'black
strap' niolnsses of commerce.
"Tho principle of producing sugnr
Is embodied In the fact that water can
hold only a given amount of sncroso In
solution. As the water Is driven out
of tho cane Juice the latter reaches n
stage where there Is not enough left
to hold all the sugar dissolved, and as
evaporation proceeds, tho sugar, de
prived of Its water. Is compelled to
i pass out ot solution into crystal form

A program sufficiently varied to Interest everybody and still of such character that all receive the most wholesome
and uplifting entertainment. Tills typifies tho work of tho Lombard Entertainers. Well chosen operatic selections, the
best of popular songs, readings, monologues, platiologues, whistling solos, these nil combine to build n program replete
with good musical material and novel entertainment. Harry Lombard probably has few equals in musical comedy
among Lyceum and Chautauqua artists. He has hud long experience on tlie concert nnd operatic stage, having been
for eight years baritone with tho English Opera Company.Lela Fnlrchlld Lombard, formerly with the Falrchlld I-udies'
Quartet, has n deep contralto voice nnd Is ulso a talented render and Impersonator. With beautiful cosluues and clan
orilto stage settings, they give a progrum of a quality seldom attempted by a company of two.
