TO have been pioneer enterprises Of a
magnificent industry. The difficulty TO
overcome appears no greater than the
cotton manufacture has accomplished in
underseliing Manchester. The Maine
achievement is o attracting attention
and exciting hopefulness; and it is to
the inventive genius and manufacturing
skill Of the East that the country natu-
rally looks for organizing success in
beet sugar-making. Could it be attain

the result would be 8 greater boon TO
agriculture, East and West, in its slim

American Sugar.

More than leo years ago we began
making cane-sugar in Louisiana, and
in 1854 it suficed for half the country's
supply. Now we import 9 pounds for
every 10 used. Forty years ago q corn
stalk sugar mania arose, and the Off
cial representative of agriculture gush-
ed over the subject in official reports,
the New York Agricultural Society gave
. premium for successful making of
sugar of maize, and for q year OF two
Jealous experimenters in this State, in
Indiana, in Tennessee, and all over
the country, made q little sugar and .
great deal of uncrystalizable mush-a
dirty-looking agglomeration of sirup
and grape-sugar; and then the whole
subject sank into oblivion, to be resur.
rected as history from time to time re-
peats itself. Then came sorghum, and
for more than 20 years sugar, in in6n-
itesmal quantities, has been made from

about . pound and four-tenths per acre
to 80 gallons of strip, for the last Is
years, and asmaller proportion in other

What a beautiful time is spring,
When the wOodchuck begins to sing,
Andthe bumblebee and chicadee
Carry their heads around in a sling,
When the black and tickling ants
Crawl up the young mans pants,
And the straddlebug and mosquito hug,
While the spiders engage in a dance.
And the lind gets drunk on dew,
And offers the robin a chew,
While the owl blinks and the sparrow

At the wife Of the gray cuckoo.
And the coon goes OFF on q spree
Along with the chipmunk and flea,
The odorous skunk gets laundering
drunk
And tries to make love to the bee.
