 HENRY CAREY BAIRD & CO., Publishers, 

 810 Walnut Street, Philadelphia. 

 This is the only publication in the United States 

 devoted exclusively to the cultivation and utilization 

 of the Sugar Beet. Farmers and Capitalists should 

 remember that from the beet is manufactured one-half 

 the sugar consumed in the world. The beet manufac- 

 turing processes are not in their experimental stages — 

 by them are obtained not only sugar, but also meat, 

 alcohol, etc.
