Sugar Beet Culture.

Renewed attention has been called to
the value Of the sugar beet, and exten-
sive experiments have been recently
made to test the various methods of
culture employed. Among these, the
experiments Of Deherian and Frenzy
throw some light on the question of
fertilizers. Beets were first planted in
sterile sand, and then supplied with va
rious solutions in water, With distilled
water the roots remained in a merely
rudimentary state, and with common
water they gained slightly in weight.
With water containing phosphates they
grew much larger, but did not give
roots weighing over one hundred grains
(about three and one-half ounces). An
application of ammonial salts or nitrates
gave better results, but it was only by
combining the phosphates and nitrates
that roots of even the normal size were
produced. The experiments were con-
tinued in rich garden soils, with view
to find the cause Of the reported loss of
sugar in roots grown on old and highly
manfred plantations. These expert
mcnts are said to point to the fact that
in such soils the excess of heterogeneous
materials tends to give the roots an ex-
cess of nitrogen at the expense Of the
sugar. Soils less rich and more equally
supplied with lime, potash and phos-
phorous, are therefore suggested by
these authorities as likely to give roots
having a good proportion of sugar.

The Indian Question.

Referring to the war with the Sioux
Indians, the New York Herald says |:
We shall have to fight out of this 81
best we can-as we have before-with
triumph in tho end, but with humilia-
ton all the same, with q loss OF money
and, perhaps, OF life. But now, when
We ara mourning tho death OF bravo
men, and what looks like reverse to
our arms, why can wo not take up tho
Indian question again and solve 1t Can
we not deal Justly with the Indian OF
course Sheridan will reinforce Crook and
OF conrse there will DO another battle
and terrible punishment Of the In
dams. But Is this all Why not end
tho whole question nowl Why not
make ono job OF the Indian businessa
Why not march against the Indians
with force enough to make every one q
prisoner9 Then why not give them
some one place TO inhabit and keep
them within its limits There are not
as many Indians in tho whole country
as there arc inhabitants in the lower
wards of New York, and VIC certainly
could handle them without this constant
drain Of blood and treasure. We might
take Arizona or New Mexico, or We
might purchase Lower California and
have a territory under military rule
where every Indian could live. is in
consistent with our civilization an . with
sense to allow the Indian to
rove over country as hne as that
around the Black Hills, preventing its
in order that he may
shoot game and scalp his neighbors.
That can never be. This region must
be taken from the Indian even us we
took Pennsylvania and Illinois. But
while We build empires on his plains We
should not kill him, we should not rob
him, we should not treat him as pan
ther or grizzly bear. If the exciting
news from the Sioux region only
awakens in us q sense of duty neglect
ed, of opportunities wasted, of unnec-
,essary losses in money and life, If it
only compels us to do justice to the In.
dian, it will, in the end, be blessing to
him and an honor to ourselves.

They have little merit besides cheapness,
and the market for them is almost exclu-
sivoly in Turkey, Arabia and the North
African trade.
Penetrating into the last court we come
first to the carved wood work from the
Bermese neutrality-suspicious. OF which
are pretty sure TO fill good deal Of
space in the trunks OF American tourists
returning from Switzerland. All these
pretty articles-chalets, clocks, chess
men, boxes and mantel ornaments, are
ont out by hand in the cottages Of tho
peasants high up among the Alps, in the
winter season, when they can do no out
door work. Yew, linden, walnut, maple,
pear, chestnut, cherry aud oak, are the
woods used. Tho art is handed down
from generation to generation, and the
children begin while quite young to
help their parents in the simpler kinds
OF carving. Tho best specimen in the
collection is bookholder in white
maple, with Alpine roses and edelweiss,
carved in the closest imitation OF nature.
Surrounding the chalet at the extreme
rear of the section are shelves where
condensed milk, chocolate, aniline dyes
and fancy liquors mingle curiously with
photographs. There are also q few
breech loading guns OF the regulation
pattern used in the Swiss army--a mani
fest adaptation OF the American inven-
tions of Winchester and Henry.
Bradford opinion. [volume] (Bradford, Vt.) 1874-1881, 1876-07-15

Several times during the past year the
Free Press has been asked by Eastern
papers to explain what "penstock "

for the life of it make out the meaning
of the word, and Boston, with Worces.

look this way. You 60 to a plumber and
tell him You want to secure family
supply of water. He fools around from
six days to six weeks, and his man comes
and digs ditch from some point in the
back yard to the water main in tho
street. If you have any money or pa
tienco left, one end of an inch lead pipe
is connected to the main, and tho other
end cut short of wherever you desig-
nate it. The last end is fitted with q

A Heartrcnding Disclosure.

Very recently, gentleman giving a
dinner party was persuaded, much
against his wishes, to allow his young
hopeful, spoiled child, to join the
company.
Thinking that many of the rich dishes
were not good for the boy, he objected
to his partaking of them, but eventually
gave way on the child threatening

tell I" II.
This went on for some time, until the
father made a stand, refusing firmly to
let the boy have any wine, adding: T.
