per acre in tons of cane is for sorghum fully
two-thirds, and often equal to that of sugar
cane. 8. The seed of sorghum is identical
in composition with corn, and can be substi-
tuted for corn for every purpose for which
corn is used. AS many bushels may be OBJ

ripe and ready to be harvested, contains as

ssNO LICENsE,, IN WORCESTER.


How to deal with the traffic in intoxicating
liquors is a problem whose, solution is engag-
ing much attention in all parts of this coun-
try. The people of Worcester, Massachu-
setts, city about the size of New Haven,
are especially stirred up about the matter in
view of the active and vigorous work which
is being done to carry the city for no license
at the election next month.
Worcester has had some experience with
no license, and it is interesting and instruc-
tive to see how it has worked. Many good
citizens voted for no license with the idea
that it would much restrict the selling and
the drinking of rum. According to the Spy,
for month or more the experiment seemed
to work well. The executive officers of the
city were faithful, vigilant and impartial,
and the liquor sellers acknowledged their eff
fciency by discontinuing their business so
far as open sales are concerned. The condi-
ton of the city regards temperance was
visibly and materially improved. The hotels,
restaurants and saloons seemed to be selling
no prohibited liquors, no drunken men were
seen in the streets, and the number of arrests
was much diminished. But soon the aspect
of affairs changed somewhat. Drunken men
began to be seen about the streets, and other
evidence that liquor was freely sold in ways
that exposed the sellers to small risks of de-
lection became abundant. Now some of
those substantial citizens who five months
ago expected to vote against license because
they saw good results from prohibition are
convinced that these results were temporary
and ill7sory, and intend to vote for Ii
cense again. or are in doubt. They cay that
the prohibitory policy has been faithfully
tried this year without sensibly diminishing
the amount of liquor selling or intemper-
ance, and in some respects they believe that
the situation is worse than before. The Ii
cense money is lost to the city, and though
they would not set of the thousands of dol
lars derived from that source against any
substantial damage to the morals of the city,
yet, if the morals of the city are not visibly
affected by either policy, the money is worth
saving.
This is an old story, but it is worth retell-
ing. Thus far high license seems to be the
most sensible and practical way of dealing
with the liquor traffic.
