The East Tennessce "A grioulfural Society met
at the Board of Trade rooms Yesterday evening,
according 70 previous ENCOURAGEMENT goodly

Capt. Jas ). Boyd, the President, took the
chair and called the meeting to order.

fare of the Association the committee offered
the following for the consideration of the Asso-
citation
That there was not TO the knowledge of the
committee any constitution and bylaws in ex-
stence for the government of the officers of the
Association, therefore, IL was suggested that a
committee be appointed to draft constitution
and bylaws to,be submitted to the stockholders
at an early day. r...
That the incoming officers be instructed to
perfect and complete the titles to the Society's
land.
That bylaw beincluded requiring all privi-
lege fees in advance
That the silver ware now on hand be sold and
that hereafter no plate premiums be afforded,
IL being the opinion of the committee that pa

that plate be given only when offered as a spe-
cial premium by individuals.
That certificates of stock now out be called
in and that new certificates be issued from
regular stock book.
That the sale of ale, beer or any Intoxicating
beverages be not allowed on the grounds.
That the paramount object of the Association
should be the encouragement of the agricultural
and mechanical industries and products of East
Tennessee, and that discrimination be made
in favor of home industries.
That if such is not in the previous charter of
the Association, they would suggest electing
fifteen directors, majority of whom shall re-
side in Knox county, the rest to be selected from
influential farmers of adjoining counties, and
that the presidents Of the Bradley and Greene
county fairs be placed on the list, and that from
this list an executive committee of five be cho-
sen, whose duty shall be the financial manage
ment of the Society.
The committee reported that they had met
with liberal spirit among the creditors, and
made special mention of the President and Mr..
Charlton, and with careful and judicious
management they predicted a profitable and
useful future for the Association.
On motion of Thomas III. Head, the report of

Who WIN Make the Experiment.


My attention has recently been directed
70 the culture of the beet for the purpose
of manufacturing sugar. From some facts
in my possession, am fully warranted in
the assertion that this business can be
profitably prosecuted by the farmers of
East Tennessee. They are aware that
there is no trouble and but little expense
attending the culture of this vegetable. 1t
will grow anywhere and in any soil In
fact, in this part of Tennessee they grow
enormously large. / have seen them of
huge proportions. Our climate and soil
arc admirably adapted to their highest de-
velopment. They are hardy and prolific ;
every husbandman knows this to be true
Heretofore they have only been esteemed
for their esculent properties-to be boiled,
sliced and eaten.
Beyond this but few have regarded them
as of any value. Time, however, is about
to demonstrate that they are destined to
take higher rank and TO subserve the pur-
poses of man in more important sphere,
that of furnishing cheap sugar.
Sugar manufactured from the beet is no
new thing under the sun. AS far back as
1895 it was known to exist. France, dur
ing the Napoleonic wars, proved the prof
itableness of the enterprise. 1t is now
great item in the whole of Europe.
l will now submit some facts A
distinguished American agriculturist
couraging experiment. Heplanted two and
a half acres in sugar cane which produced
4,S40 pounds of sugar at labor cost of
$500. He planted the same space in beets
and produced $500 pounds of sugar at a
cost of $75.' 1t will be seen that the cana
sugar cost double the beet sugar. A ton
of Irish beet sugar costs a little over three
and half cents per pound. The remains
of the beet after the sugar is extracted are
fine for fattening stock. Six per cent of
the beet is sugar seven and half per
cent. of thecane,
In France the beet sugar production in
1851 was 10000 ia 1870, 2S9, 0SS. In Ger
many, As, 600 tons in 1850, and 254, 220 in
1870. In Austria, 1900 tons in 1884, and
40, $50 in 1870. In Russia, 5000 in 1850,
and 135 900 in 1870. In Belgium, 1000
tons in 1850, and SIS, 739 in 1870. In TWEEN
ty years in Europe the increase has been
942, 492 tons. These are strong and con-
vincing facts, and shows, conclusively,
what may be done in sugarmaking. The
consumption of sugar in this country and
in Europe in 1871 was ,Sl2,SS0 tons. OF
this a million tons were beet-root sugar
Now may / not ask ifthere is no one in
East Tennessee enterprising enough 10
take hold of this matter and give it trial
Let some one try the experiment. The
best beet for the purpose is the Silesian
beet, Beta alba. The yellow beet is next
then the red and lastly the common or
field beet. G.. w. CHARLTON.

FATTENlNG Poor CATTLE.-We fire.
quently see a miserable, half-starved bo-
vine without a particle of flesh on its
bones but what muscles will hold its frame
together, and having a hard, unyielding
skin covered with dirt and scruff, put
up to be fed for the butcher on dry hay, to
which few roots and perhaps some grain
are grudgingly added. Such a beast will
take months of time and large consump-
ton of food to bring it up TO the point at
which the process of laying on fat will
commence; or, If highly fed on corn meal
or other rich food, will put on a layer of
fat Just under the skin, with scarcely any
flesh between that and the bones, and so
be worth but little more after feeding up
than 1t would fetch as a store beast.
Then again there are thousands of beasts
put up to feed for the butcher before they
have attained AN age at which they can be
proftably fed. Such animals, though they
may be made passable enough to suit the
wants of the drover or low-class butcher,
can only be sold at low price and attain
but small weights, while, had they been
kept on till they had attained their full
growth, they might he made to vie with
the best and command double or treble the
price.
Cattle intended to be winter fed for the
butcher should have reached maturity
as regards the development of their mus
cular and digestive systems. To get the
animals in proper condition to be fed up,
they must have the run of such good pas
ture i'm the summer and fall before being
put up as will bring them TO the stalls full
of flesh we'll laid on at every valuable point.
This done, the process of feeding in order
TO lay fat on at the right point and in the
proper manner becomes both profitable
and takes out a moderate length of time
Such an animal, well managed, will bring
in much more per pound live weight than
one of equal size fed in the ordinary
waV.

SPREADING MANURE IN THE FALL
neighbor was querying what he had
better do with his barnyard manure, of
which lac had a large quantity. 1t was
piled in the yard last summer, and he
wished 20 apply il TO a field intended for
corn next year. Was IL best TO let it re-
main in large piles till next spring or draw
II on TO the fields this fall and distribute it
in small heaps to be spread just before
ploughing, or draw and spread it evenly
this fall? We should draw ii to the field.
We should draw it to the field now while
the ground is hard, and time is not as val
liable as 1t may be next spring; then We
should spread IL evenly, provided the sur
face Is not so steep as To be subject to wash
ing by the winter and spring floods. IL it
is we should prefer leaving il in small
piles TO be spread as soon rs the frost Is out
next spring. We have found from expert
ence that much greater benefit is derived
from manure If 1t be applied to the sod in
the fall than IL 1t be put ON only just pre-
viOus 10 ploughing in the spring. There
is no loss by evaporation or fermentation,
and the only thing TO be guarded agaist is
washing, especially during asudden thaw,
which moves great deal of water over
frozen ground, and this even, is not as
large as many suppose. The advanta &c
gained by fall manuring comes from
the abstraction of the strength of the
manure by the rains aud melting SHOWS,
and the deposition of il in the sod or sur
face of the soil. 1t is then ready for the
plant TO use Immediately, which thus gains
a vigorous growth early in the season. 1t
would be good plan to harrow the field
after the manure Is spread, as this assists
TO distribute il evenly and brings II closer
TO the surface. american Rural Home.

o. To MAKE BOYS Coon FARMERS The
american Agricult,1'ist says: " Induce
them to take an interest in the farm, i'm
the implements, in the stock tell them
all your plans; give them a history Of
your own life, what you did and how you
lived when a boy; but do not harp too
much on the degenerate character of young
men of the present age; praise them when
you can, and encourage them to do still
better. Let them dress up in the evening
instead of sitting down in their dirty
clothes in a dirty room. Provide plenty
of lights. Thanks to kerosene, our coun-
try homes can be as brilliantly lighted as
the gas-lit residences of the city. EncouI .
age the neighbors to drop In evenings
Talk agriculture instead of politics. Speak
of the Importance of large crops, of good
stock liberal feeding and the advantages of
making animals comfortable, rather than
of hard times. low prices and high wages.
Above all, encourage the boys to read good
agricultural books. Papers are well enough,
but an intelligent boy wants something
more. Get him some good agricultural
book to study. Read it with him, and
give him the benefit of your experience
and criticism. When he has mastered this
give him another. In our own case, we
owe our love to farming principally to the
fact that our father told us everything he
was doing on the farm; answering all the
questions and encouraging rather than re-
fusing, cur ehild-like desire of helping him
to pillow, to chop, to let off water, and fire
the brush heap.
