uncle JerrY TnIks.


The following observations by Sec
rotary Rusk on the manufacture of
sugar, shows that he can and does
take most hopeful view of the great
success awaiting that industry. In an
interview he said:
IF the sorghum cane produces II
per cent of saccharine matter" says
he, ssthe cost of the sugar can be
brought down to cents per pound.
Were it not for the fuel problem in
Kansas, it would be shaved down to 2
cents. There is no profit in operating
small mill, for instance twenty or
fifty ton mill, but there is in two
hundred and fifty ton mill. Take a
manufacturing season of sixty days,
and two mile field would supply the
material nicely for such a mill. Now
plant two hundred and fifty ton mill
every two miles in Kansas and look at
the enormous production of sorghum
sugar there would be in that state
alone
s'How much sugar does a $50 ton
mill produce daily?"
You can figure that out for your
self on the basis of u per cent sacchar-
inc matter in the cane. Every day
there would be $50 tons of cane
crushed, yielding some 10000 pounds
of sugar. In Sixty-day season that
would amount to ], 800, 900 pounds from
single MILL
Don't you think other states can
do as well as Kansas?o
Undoubtedly, il located south of
the north line OF Kansas. / don't be-
lieve that the sorghum industry could
be carried on successfully in Iowa,
Illinois or Wisconsin. You see. to
make it profitable there must be a man
ufacturiDg season of sixty days. Now
you can raise sorghum in Wisconsin
and other states in this latitude, but
you haven't time to reduce it to sugar
before it is nlpped by frosts. The
cane must be cut as it is used in the
mill, for it sours forty-eight hours af-
ter it is cut. and the cane would not
mature in this climate early enough te
give a manufacturing season"
sHow would an extensive manufac-
ture of sorghum sugar affect the south

"It would pay them to give up sugar

two crops of sorghum cane, and look al
the difference in cost. To. plant an
acre in sugar cane costs the owner OF
the plantation $50; to do SO in sorghum
the cost is 10 cents. The difference il
due to the fact that field Of sugar

a Daring Robbery.

HURLEY, Wis, Sept. 21.-One of the
most daring and successful robberies
ever committed in the. state occurred
at this place last night between 9 and
IL o'clock. Over $4,000 was taken
from the vault in the Iron exchange
bank. The money arrived last night
about 8 o'clock. 1t was intended for
the Ashland and Germania mines who
were to pay off their men to-day. The
cashier put the money inside of the
iron vault and left shortly after 8
O'Clock. The second door of the vault
was opened with key; this indicates
the work of experts. Officers are at a
loss to know which way to turn. a
correspondent saw G.. A. Alexander,
agent for the express company. but he
would say nothing about the affair. A
light was left burning in the office, and
few minutes after 8 O'Clock man
was seen working at Ethe safe, but he
had on the cashiers Office coat and
nothing was thought of it by those who
passed the bank. The cashier returned
shortly after IL o'clock, when he dis
| covered the money was missing. Ac-
| tive measures were then taken to get a
clue to the robbers, but no trace OF
them has been found. The express
company had no receipt for the money

evidence of the strain of her close con-
finemens Robert Ray Hamilton did
NOT look towards his wife.

shown several cane fields and also the
city. They were then escorted to the

the farmers who had come to see the
