NEW FARM AND GARDEN BOOKS 



The Sugar-Beet in America 



BY F. S. HARRIS 

 Director of the Utah Experiment Station 



Illustrated, 12 , $2.25 



Here is a thorough and practical guide book for farmers 

 who are raising sugar-beets, for agriculturists in sugar com- 

 panies, and for students of the sugar-beet in agricultural 

 colleges. 



Dr. Harris has assembled here all the important facts and 

 details regarding the raising and cultivation of the sugar- 

 beet. There is also an account of the processes involved in 

 the manufacturing of sugar from the beet, and a discussion 

 of the sugar-beet's commercial rival, cane sugar. 



A special feature of the book is the large number of 

 illustrations over 32 plates, with maps, diagrams and 

 charts clarifying the text and adding much to the practical 

 value of the book.
