Sugar beets may be grown in any lo cality which has tillable soil that is capable of producing good crops of veg etables. All sugar beets, if properly handled, will produce syrup. The beets ar.-i cut into thin slices aud soaked in hot water (60 minutes) to extrac; the sugar. The liquid is then boiled down to the thick ness desired. , , While the boiling is progressing, a scum will rise on the surface of the liquid; this should be removed carefully by means of a skimmer. As soon as the syrup has reached the d.'sired consistency and has been skim med carefully it may be placed in catis or bottles for future uhc. 1 should be canned or bottled while hot and tightly sealed or corked to prevent molding. A few rows of sugar beets in the garden will generally be sufficient for a supply of syrup for home use. A bush el of beets will produce from three to five quarts of syrup. The flavor of the syrup is pWsant. I. contains the pure juice of the beet root aud is a wholesome and nutritious food, which to a certain degree should be helpful in reducing the sugar bill. If the evaporation is earrted far enough and the syrup is allowed to stand, a dark sugar will settle on,. Thia sugar will be found very satisfactory for home use in cases where refined sugar is not necessary, such as in mak ing pies or dark-colored eakv.
