Amber Cane Syrup and Sugar.

The convention of the Wisconsin
State Cane Growers Association re-
Gently held at Madison. seems to have
been very profitable and interesting
meeting. Addresses made by gentle
men prominently identified with this
industry were replete with practical
information and suggestions, all point
ing TO successful future for the am
Der cane producer under the improved
methods now employed III converting
it into syrup and sugar. Recent en-
thusiastic meetings of different Cane
Growers organizations seem to have
gathered information which proves
that the production of superior ar
ticle of syrup and sugar from amber
cane, Which, can be as successfully
grown in Wisconsin as Louisiana, IS
no longer 10 be classed as an expert
ment, but has been recognized as
settlea fact, and we take an especial
local pride in being able to state that
Hon. o. S. Powell, of River Falls,
has been one of the foremost to aid
in placing this industry upon the
practicable and substantial footing
which it has attained. Samples of
amber cane syrup made by Mr.. Powell
and by him placed upon exhibition at
the convention of the Mississippi
Valley Cane Growers Association
held at st. Louis, in December last,
were awarded the highest premium,
and the same samples were awarded
the highest honors at like meeting
in Minnesota. Mr.. Powell's exper-
fence has carried him beyond that
point where there is any question
about the superior quality of the
syrup m manufactured by him, and we
trust that our farmers generally will
turn their attention TO the cultivation
of amber cane, and thus justify the
heavy expense incurred by that gen.
tleman in preparing to work up the
cane, while at the same time produc-
ing a crop that cannot fail to be re-
munerative to themselves. Large es-
Establishments in Illinois and New Jer-
sey did so well last year in the manu-
facture of sugar from amber cane
that their proprietors propose to dou-
BILE their product the coming year.
The question of raising cane is one
well worthy of an investigation by
our agricultural friends.

The frO2tispiece portrait OF Gam
beta in the March Century. and the
accompanying article by writer who
was intimately acquainted with Gam
BETA, appear now with timeliness,
which, foot-note explains, is not to
be credited to editorial haste or ener-
gy, since they were both in prepare
ton for the March Century before
Gambetta's illness. One of the num-
erous interesting anecdotes in the ar
ticle relates to the not over-scrnpu-
lous manner in which Gambetta's
mother, who was ambitious for her
son, outwitted the stubborn father,
who wished his son to succeed him in
business. An excellent portrait of
the father shows man of strong will
and eccentric character.

The First Comet Of the Year.

A little before seven o'clock on Fri
day evening last, while Prof. Lewis
Swift, Director of the Warner Observ-
atoro. Rochester, n. Y. was scanning
the western sky, he discovered a bril-
liant comet located in the constellation
of Pegasus near the star Beta. The
new comet is moving eastward and is
very bright. This is the first comet
discovered during the present year
and also the first discovery made by
means of the new telescope of the
Warner Observatory, which is the
largest private telescope in the world.

Beside the fact that ice is lighter than
water, there is another curious thing
about it which persons do not know,
perhaps-namely, its purity. Ice
melted away becomes purely distilled
water. Water in freezing turns out of
it all that is not water-salt, air, color
ing matter and all impurities. Frozen
sea water makes fresh water ice. If you
freeze basin of indigo water it viii
make it as pure as that made of pure
rain water. When the cold is very
Sudden these foreign matters have no
time to escape. either by rising or sink
ing, and are thus entangled with the
ice, but do not form any part of it.
