IIRC beet root farming for the purposes of sugar production was relatively rare until the latter half of the 20th century, yet this excerpt seems to show that production was already possible on an industrial scale.

I was momentarily confused because the USSR was famous for getting lots of sugar from Cuba. But then I recalled Cuba didn’t go communist for another 35 years. | r/100yearsago | comment | r/100yearsago | 2024-28-07 |

No, she was born to the Vanderbilts. I'm not sure how they chose the name. | r/100yearsago | comment | r/100yearsago | 2024-27-07 |
Consuelo was married off to a duke in England so they could have nobility attached to the Vanderbilt name and so the duke could have funds to repair and run his estate. Not a love match | r/100yearsago | comment | r/100yearsago | 2024-28-07 |
This was before the racialisation of Hispanics, so there wasn't a stigma attached to the name Consuelo then. It was just an 'exotic' name like Mercedes or something. | r/100yearsago | comment | r/100yearsago | 2024-28-07 |

They didn't. Phrenology is a specific thing about bumps of benevolence and philo-progenitiveness that was only briefly taken seriously (a long time before the 20th century), and wasn't particularly racist.
