"Do you think there is any future to this

In this connection some facts and a cures
recently read at tho State Department from
Consul ksiier, at Germany (s.et' en), are
specially interesting. FIs shows that the
export Of beet sngar from Germany to the
United States, bpgun in 1881, hes grown
with wonderful rspidity, Notwithstanding
the heavy tsrif which this county impcscs
upon foreign sugar, aud from that consular
district alone amounted 70 nearly Sl00 0QO,

beet, for instance, Michigan, Wisconsin,
Iowa and Minnesota, and 100000 acres

come when the beet root will bo for the
north what the sugar cane is for the South,
and sugar factories replace within the
