Making Their Own Sugar.

Women in Utah are going to make sugar at home. The great Interest taken In sugar-beet production for sirups by the women of one county has led to the planting of from 75 to 100 pounds of sugar-beet seed. This IS the direct result of the" work of the county home demonstration agent, who has demonstrated the use and making of the sirup to each of the 15 organizations )n the county with whom she works. The women have also made between 2.000 and 2,500 pounds of potato starch, averaging 25 pounds to 4 bushels of potatoes. This mgans the saving of 400 bushels of potatoes that otherwise would have been wasted.
