Beet refuse for cattle would add
greatly to our meat supply, and thus
rapidly develop the whole South as
the greatest stock raising country on
the continent, which nature intend
ed it should be.

their views on this interesting topic.

with him. When they reached the
stable the horse was dead. The.
stableman said that he remained for
nearly an hour perfectly still, then,
without making a sign, fell and died
without a struggle. The veterinary
who was called remarked after the
circumstances were told him, that
unquestionably the horse died of
grief. fit is possible for all the
mental faculties of the horse to be-
come abandoned to grief to such an
extent as to cause death, how much
more does he appeal to the sympa-
thy and regard of mankind.-Ex.

application of the proper fertilizer.
Hence, this a very important dis
covery, for it opens to the Southern
sugar grower a grand field never
dreamed of before. The sorghum
crop has already promised to become
valuable aid to our planters, al
though inferior to cane as a sugar
producing plant; but it natures in
July, August and September, and
could be made an important feeder
to the central sugar factory before
the tropical cane season begins.
Now, that scientific culture has
brought the sugar beet from the low
est to the richest sugar bearing
plant, and it natures earlier than
sorghum even, it commences to look
as though the central sugar house of
the future will be able to run the
greater portion IF the year Tt is a
we'll known fact that oeets, usiislAy
other sugar plants, can be stored
and lose but little thereby; and that
will be strong argument in favor
of that crop into Louisiana, Texas
and the other Gulf States. Here we
never have cold sufficient to iniure
them in bins or sheds slightly pro-
tected.
No valid objection can be urged
against sugar beet culture in our
own Southern sugar belt. The as
sertion that their cultivation is too
tedious for our labor we are assured
by the German sugar men who
know, has no foundation. They are
at first sown in beds, and then trans
planted in rows like cabbage (the
ONLY hand work about them), after
which they are cultivated by the
plow and hoe. Of-courSe, there is
considerable labor attending their
manufacture, but as they can doubt
less be plowed out or gathered with
an implement like a potato digger,
their subsequent washing and hand
ling would not be so heavy that a
larger margin of profit would not be
left than with cane. Another ad-
vantage would be their adaptation
to our diffusion plants, and this
would be one of the great advan-
tages the pioneers in that process
would have over all others-for ol
course that is the only process by
which their saccharine contents
could be extracted, and the plants
now being erected here are as vel

Beet Sugar in the Lower South.

DCCb tuC AOW WIZ SJOutus
It is now stated authoritatively
that beet sugar production is sue
cess on the cane lands of Louisiana.
If this is true this industry cannot
fail to be equally or even more prof
table on the reclaimed lands of
South Florida. The last issue of
the New Orleans Sugar Bowl says:
After SO many and oft-repeated as
sertions that the sugar beet would
not thrive in Louisiana, we have
been surprised, Of late, to learn that
this is probably great error.
1t is indeed strange that, during
all these years, when the beet sugar
industry has been making such gi-
gantic strides in other countries, and
even been successfully manufactured
in our own (n California, by the
] sugar king, Claus Spreckles),
that no one in Louisiana; SO far as
we. know, ever tried the sugar beet
until this year. We have heard of
few of the seeds being planted from
mere curiosity, but no one appears
to have had their juice analyzed un-
til this season.
A few days ago we had the pleas
ure of meeting Mr.. B. H. Remmers,
an expert German sugar chemist,
who informed us of the experiment
this year made by Mr.. Won Tresc-
kow, the German chemist, on Mr..
Harry Laws Cinclaire plantation, in
West Rouge, with imported German
sugar beet seed. Notwithstanding
the drouth, they grew rapidly, and
after two months growth he was sur
prised to learn that they contained
95 per cent. juice, which polarized s
per cent. sucrose, when at the same
age in Germany they were never
known to contain oyer 5 per cent.
sucrose. At three months he was
astonished to find that the polarized
1876 per cent. sucrose. This was
verified by samples sent by Mr.. Won
Tresckow to DIR. Stubbs, and that
gentleman announced the fact at the
last meeting of the Louisiana Sugar
Planters Association.
We have no doubt that the sugar
beet will do we'll all over the alluvi,
al portion of Louisiana, for we un
derstand the plant requires rich soil
Should any section have a soil no
now adapted to the beet, it comic
doubtless easily be made so by tht

1t Broke His Heart.

The emotional life of the horse is
remarkable. There are instances
on record where the death of the
horse has been traced directly to
grief. One instance is called to
mind Which occurred more than
twenty years ago. A circus had
been showing in the little town of
Unionville, Pa, when one of the
trained horses sprained one of his

He would stand with his ears prick

ready to sell his animal for $225,
When the committee arrived at
the osuseway, to their surprise, they
found several hundred citizens patiently
awaiting the pleasures of trotting race.
The big bay started out with its load and
the Riohenberger horse close at its heels
the light wagon filled with delighted
load of pleasure seekers. Coming back
along the causeway track the excitemen,

He Decamps with Two Gold
Watches aud Some Money.
A young baker, II years old, en-
ployed by ]. George Stab OF No. 314
Market street, who was only known by
the name Of Frank, left suddenly Tuesday
morning, taking with him two gold
watches and over u In money belonging
to his fellow-workmen. Frank claimed
to hail from Philadelphia and said that
he was the son of English parents. He
has been in Mr.. Staib's employ for about
three weeks and had become quite O
fsvorite by his obliging manners and at
tention to buainess. He served bread
that morning as usual and when he went
to the b. & o. station to deliver some
rolls which were shipped to Brandywine
Springs, he did not return for breakfast
Ono of the other bakers became sus-
picious and began an investigation in
which he ascertained that Frank had left
on the 2 O'Clock train for Philadelphia.
A further investigation in their
rooms ct staib's disclosed the fact
that the Young scamp took gold watch
valued at $6S and $7 In money belong
ing to Gus Roller, the head baker, and 4
gold watch valued at $46 from Louis
Sehlig, another baker. The police were
notified and telegram was sent at once
