A lay Lecture on tho HOrb to Lie.

The verb to lie, to reclne, is in
peril. A late official document uses
"ay for its present tense; an edi-
torial article in the Chicago Tribune
has money laying at interest" and
among people Of average education
and intelligence there exists an in
extricable confusion as to the use Of
lain, had lain, having lain, and the
corresponding forms to laid, had laid,
and having laid of the verb to lay.
The learned court was unfortunate
when it declared, in rebuking an un-
grammatical attorney, thatcourts sit,
and hens set; butt is true that, while
hens lay eggs, and have laid eggs,
and are laying eggs, men lie down,
and have lain down, and are lying
down. tits equally true, too, that
while we must say "the hen laid an
egg" we absolutely must not say
"the man laid down" The test OF
the verb is whether it can grammatic-
ally take a substantive after it as its
object, to lay being transitive, 10 lie

The United States as Sugar Producer

The United States rs n Sugar Producer
The annual consumption Of cane sugar in
the United States may be roughly placed at
:, lOO, O0o, geo pounds, or about 10 pounds for
every man, woman and child. Inasmuch As
the news from the Louisiana sugar parishes
continues to be quite favorable, and opinions
prevail there that the yield Of sugar will he
remarkably large, the outtum of the Louisiana
crop may be placed at about 225,000,0OO
pounds, or say. one-tenth ofthe total quantity
consumed. The consumption Of foreign sugar
in lSSa was NOTABLY in excess Of that IN the
preceding twelve months, about ? ! per cent.
or about 5Q,00Q, 900 pounds. Louisiana sugar,
that Is domestic cane sugar, has been pro
tec.ed, and still is, by the tariff. The claim
has long been made that protection Is all that
Is REQUIRED TO ultimately develop the sugar IN
dustry SO that the entire home market can Re
supplied Yet we have just noted that the
gain in iuportStious Of foreign sugar in lSs2
alone amounted to over p per cent. Of the
entire probable yield OF sugar in louisiana IN
the presentyear. This looks as If the require
ments Of the home market had long since dis
i2nced the pace at which the domestic produc-
iion is proceeding, and as if the gap were be
ing constantly widened.
Various southern journals have been pub

the new system Of drainage IN Florida. In
mense tracts of land, heretofore impenetrable
marshes, have been drained by means Of a
network Of canals. The soil SO reclaimed,
rich with vegetable deposits Of ages, is 10 be
turned over to the sgriculturist- This work
Of reclamation has been just begun, and the
results already attained warrant the assertion
that large region specially adapted 70 the
cultivation Of cane sugar viii thus become
available 1t has also been pointed cut that
IN southern Texas sugar cane may be success
fully cultivated. Il L in this way, then, that
the sugar producers believe the commodity
may be more largely found at home, although
it has not been claimed that Florida and
Texas, in addition to Louisiana, will be able
TO yield ga, 600 tons, which IS the quantity
now required. A more comprehensive idea Of
the quantity and value Of the foreign cane pro
ducts required IN the United States may be
obtained from the official statistics of imports
tons during the year ending June 80, 1885,
and again in the fiscal year ending in lss2.
The free importations OF sugar and .molasses
were from the Sandwich Islands under the
reciprocity treaty:

10 be want Of proper machinery, lack of re
Quisiie attention to the growing cane, and not
sufficient care in manipulating the Juice after
extraction. The success Of sorghum sugar
making in this country will mean q great deal
for the sorghum stalk will grow where Indian
corn will. and its seed forms an excellent feed
for cattle. The beet sugar experiments which
have been made in this country have uniyer-
sally been failures with the exception Of that
in California Not for the reason that sugar
cannot he made here from the saccharine por-
ton Of the beet, but from the lack Of adequate
arrangements to secure a permanent supply Of
bee.s
In recent number of the American Pro
tsuti5HiSf We find letter from Henry A. Brown
on the Home Production Of Sugar." in
which he makes the statment that our normal
capacity for producing sugars, cane sorghum
and beet, is unquestonably abundanty ad-
cquate 10 supply the country, and, in view of
the inquiry made above, there is little reason
to doubt il. But the remainder of Mr.. Browns
letter, further than an exposition of the situa-
ton, is employed to argue in favor of the reten-
iion Of high tariff on foreign sugar. To re-
move the duty, it is pointed out, would be to
cut of $40, 0oO, 600 revenue. To add a bounty
tax Of 25-l0 cents per pound for the domestic
product would prove burden of about 81 ,O00,-
0e0 per annum at the existing rate Of pToduc-
tioa, and when the home production shall
equal the demand lit is presumed within a
decade y this bounty tax will have amounted
to So 100000. From this it is argued that
American consumers would not have secured
cheaper sugars. We fail to see anything call
ing for special attention in this special plea
for the Louisiana sugar industries. 1t is a
kindred one to those which have been, and
Will be made for some time to come, in behalf
Of other and easily named domestic industries.
Il Is matter Of considerable doubt if the SUI
gar cane area of this country ever can supply
the already enormous and steadily growing
demands Of the United States for sugar. And
even Mr.. BroSn seems 10 recognize that 10
meet the home requirements by domestic pro-
duction sorghum and beet sugar will have to
he depended on. The Cnly successful beet
sugar factory In the country " is at Alvarado,
Cal, within the reach Of the free sugar from
/ Hawaii. As for the pioneer successful sorg-
hum factories, they appear to be doing pretty
well as infant industries, with dividends
amounting to 10 per cent. per aunum. 1t ap-
pears to US that these facts carry more weight
with then than all discussions as to the best
methods Of fostering home competition with
foreign sugars, bounties and the like.

The figures given above show to some de-
gree what remains TO be done in the way Of
raising our OWL sugar, and The almost fruit
less task Of undertaking it with the cane
variety, on account Of the limited area in
which it may be prohtablyo grown. But Of
late we have begun to hear new. version Of
the old, old story concerning sorghum. For
thirty wears American farmers have been try
ing to make sugar and molasses from sorg-
hun, but almost universally with dishezrten-
ing results. Sorghum sugar was not popular
after being once tasted. AS has been alleged
Of It, g 10 small boy would ever steal sorghum
sugar." and against that indictment not much
remained to Be said Il appears, however,
that there are three sorghum sugar nanufac-
turing companies IN the United States which
have, without parade or trumpet, quietly de-
veloped . successful method Of producing =
light yellow colored sugar from sorghum with
an unobjectionable taste. One concern is said
to have made over 100 900 pounds last year,
and IS 900 gallons Of nolasses- But the most
striking part Of the record is that it declared !
30 per cent dividend. Another Of these COM
panies ls reported to heve made over 25o, 900
pounds Of sugar and conespondingiy large
profits. Illinois and New jersey are known
to claim each one OF these successful sorghum
sugar manufactures Tie causes Of repeated
