a very decided break, which carried priees
for active stocks down ABOUT per cent. be-
fore midday. The decline was then checked.
and q firm tone with less activity prevailed
for an hour, followed again by rene ed We Ak
ne that continued 20 the close. The break
in the forenoon was directly traceable 20 coal
stocks, which we're conspicuous for the de-
cline, and which show net losses Of z(b31z

due 10 the reorganization plan Of the Reading

THE Diffusion Process.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 14.-Prof. Wiley,
the chemist of the agricultural depart
ment, who is at Fort Scott, Kan, con-
Quoting an experiment in sugar making
from sugar cane by the diffusion pro-
cess, has notified the Commissioner of
Agriculture that his first estimate of
the yield was too low. He finishe d
swinging off the second Louisiana
s'strilze" yesterday.
The yield of eighty three tons of cane
was il 100 pounds, or l34 pounds per
ton of 'sfirst" sugar of fine quality.
This he considers phenomenal
yield, being, as he states, about double
the ordinary yield obtained BY the old
milling process with the same kind OF
cane.
He will proceed to boil for seconds
at once.

Our Agricultural Industries.

Capitola,, Advocate.
The experiments in sugar king by
the diffusion process, recently made at
Kansas City, whereby an increase OF
tifty ptr ,eut was obtained in the yield
If sugar cane, wlll surely revive the
hopes of anr sugar planters and give
new life To This great Louisiana indus
NY. Cane producing lands must ap
aleciate in value and capital flow 10 the
relief of the sugar planter to enable him
to pnrsur his industry with assured sue
cess.
The rehabilitation of her sugar indus
try would, alone, in few years, bring
Louisiana to the position of one of the
greatest wealth producing States in the
Union.
To the cotton planters, greater yields
are also promised by the use of fertiI-
izers, in the manner tried and suggest
ed By Prof. VIM, C. Stubhs, the emi-
neut agricultural chemist in charge OF
the State aud Sugar Planters Associa-
ton Experiment Stations.
If. in addition, some cheap machinery
could be devised to enable the cotton
ulauter to extract the oil from the seed i,
at his own gin, and to avail himself OF
the oil cake aud meal to feed his stock
aud to manure his lands, the success of
all our agricultural industries would be
assured.
Until recently, hut little attention has
been paid to the matter of improving
the methods of farming and Planting,
for the reason that our people have de-
pended too much upon the natural
superiority of their lands over those of
other States. Meanwhile, the farmers
of Georgia, Alabama, and to some ex-
tent. those of Mississippi, have, by the
use Of fertilizers and improved methods,
bpen enabled tp more than offset the
SUPERIORITY of tl!., soil of Louisiana SO
that our farmers and plantsis have
found themselves losers III tile co;lspe-
