Fort Wayne.

The city Of Fort Wayne is evident
" one of the finest inland CONNER
cial cities in the West, which is but
another proof ofthe progress of the
age. Twenty three years ago We
first stepped within its limits; what
then was but small TOM has now
become an extensive city. The clean
illness of her streets and business
houses, style of architecture and
manufactures are worthy OF irita-
tion By our larger cities.
Alook into the Grocery House of
e. Trentman * Son iustiiies us in
saying that it is among the finest in
the West Mr.. Trcn.man commenc-
ed business thirty years ago and by
honesty and industry Las become
master of his profession, and he now
controls one of the largest Grocery
establishments IN the w est, 3OO
sacks of coffee neatly piled on the
floor and as many more on the way
which we were told would supply the
demand but few weeks. One of the
secrets Of lis success is that lie has
complete control over himself, and
being kind ana courteous 10 a fault,

To add still further to the credit of
the House, no better selection could
have been made of travelling sales
man than A. Rosenthall-good-ns

That Agricultural Societies are q
stimulus to the farmer, mechanic
and others, to Improvement in the
different arts, is self evident, but to
secure their .ull benefit money must
be provided to sustain them until
such societies become self sustain
ing. An institution half sustained
Cannot produce more than half the
benefit contemplated in its organiza-
ton.
Our Legislature, keeping in view
this fact, in 1852 provided that
all moneys received during the pre-

sons exhibiting menageries, circuses,
theatres or other shows, 81 ould con

the title OF an act should substantial

contained in the body OF an act, and

From The Indianian,
Dead Heads.

The following from the Lafayette
Courier is so applicable to every To-
cality in which paper is published
that we transfer it TO our columns, as
it applies here as well rs elsewhere.
Tie Courier is daily paper which &C
counts for its weekly expenses being
from $500 to $500 per week Many
of our patrons will be surprised
when we tell them thst single issue
of The INDIANIAN costs US from $40
to $50 per week, and we hope that
all will remember this when they try
to impose upon us with gratuitous or
dead head advertisements or local
notices Here is what the Courier
says on that subject:
There are many people who do
not seem to understand that local
notices are to be paid for when in
serted in this paper.-JJurnal.
For three months past the above
notice has been standing in the col
umus Of the Journal. We can imag-
inc the CONSERVATION it must have
excited in tie minds of that interest
ing class of dead heads-small sonl-
ed people, who IN their relations to
the press, continually remind us Of
the good brother who boosted that
he had been a member of a certain
church for fifteen years, and it had
not cost him cent They assume
to be patrons OF the paper, and put
on patronizing airs when they pay
the carrier. In cities 1t costs from
$500 to $500 week to run paper.
To gather mp this amount, twenty
cents here, dollar there, requires
better organization, more system
and harder labor than is required in
am other business of the same mag
nitude, yet there are people-lots of
them-so wrctchedly mean that they
demand the use OF our type and la
Dor to promote their own private
interests, and if like any other labo-
rer, we ask pay for our services,
they are indignant and think us lit
tie better than swindler. We keep
standing at the head Of our columns
the rates OF advertising-like a mer
chant who marks his goods in plain
figures-yet, in spite ofthis precau-
tion-this notice to dead heads-we
occasionally come across fellow
who is intent on getting something
for nothing. They say the Bung-
town papers charged them orly half
as much, and do not stop to reflect
that advertising is valuable accord
ing to circulation, just as thousand
hand bills will cost more than five
hundred. We are glad to know that
the press of this country has set a
reform in this direction, They are
more disposed than ever to make
rates and to adhere 10 them. An ed
itor certainly has right to put a
price upon his labor The merchant
is not obliged to advertise. There
is no compnlsion. He can run his
business without printers ink, as
wagons are sometimes run without
grease, but if he does advertise let
him consult the paper for its rates,
and when the bill comes in, pay it
without grumbling.

Three fourth blood woods are nov
grown in excess of the wants Of the
country, and soon California and
Texas will raise enormous quantities
of this quality, and probably cause
further reduction of the price. If
our farmers in the present wool

wool at a profit, they can do SO very
easily. and with slight expense in
making the change.
Let them buy Of the Canadian far
mers young Leicestershire bucks, at
a cost of eight or ten dollars each,
and cross them with their medium
and coarse wool ewes, and they will
produce sheep valuable for mutton,
and bearing the wool which is most
wanted and sure to command high
price. These sheep will be hardy.

BEET SUGAR IN WIscoNsIN.-It is about two
years since the experiment. of manufacturing
beet root sugar in Fon du Lac, Wisconsin.
was made. The scale on which it was con.
Quoted was very limited at first, being confined
to few acres of land. Early in 1869, Mayor
Bonesteel, of Fon du Lac, became partner in
the business. They planted eighty acres with
beets, the poorest acre of which yielded ten
tons. 1t will be seen that these eighty acres
produced an immense amount of sugar NATE
rial. The mandatory gives employment to a
large number of men, and has a capacity for
producing one thousand pounds of sugar per
day There is enough material to keep the
factory going till some time in April next
The success of this mandatory will doubtless
give new impetus to the manufacture of beet
sugar. The soil of Wisconsin is said to be ex-
cellent for the growth of the sugar beet, and it
will, ere long, be turned to good account in
that direction.
The soil and climate of Maine are equally
favorable to the successful culture of beets;
and the success which has attended the sugar.
making enterprise in the West affords a hint
to cur enterprising farmers and capitalists.
