wheat, beef and pork, thus flooding the
market with these commodities until
the prices have been cut to the lowest
margin OF profit and the value of farm
ing lands reduced to the point OF distress.
At the same time countless millions Of
the peoples money have been sent
abroad to purchase the sugar of Spanish
America and the Pacific Islands.
The Agricultural Department has been
experimenting for years to demonstrate
the feasibility of manufacturing market.
able sugar at reasonable profit from
home grown beets. The success of their
efforts is the growing work of the de-
partment. The benefits arising to Amer
lean agriculture will be two. fold. The
vast prairies of Nebraska and Kansas,
which are now devoted to the cultivation
OF wheat and corn, are found to be ex-
cellently adapted to the growing of the
beet and can now be turned to the pro-
duction of sugar, thus drawing to them
selves the profits which have heretofore
gone to the plantations of the tropics.
This is the great result toward which
the Protective system is directed.
Again it takes these fertile lands out of
the competition in the wheat, corn and
beef market and gives better show for
those lands in the east and north which
are less productive and require more
labor in their cultivation.
One of the most patent causes OF the
present depression of agriculture has
been the opening up OF cheap lands for
the raising of corn and wheat, so tha,
lands which stood for actual cash invest.
ments could not compete with them in
the wheat, corn and stock market

the cultivation of the cereals will doubt.
less have marked and immediate effect
in raising the value of corn and wheat
land.
Diversity your products" is now the
word for all American producers, both
agricultural and mechanical. There has
never been an opportunity for wider
application of this maxim than thai
offered by the founding of the beet
sugar industry in this country, and the
day may not be far distant when the
bread and beef produced on American
farms will be required to feed the peo
pie engaged in the manufacture of sugar
and the sugar output of the West and
South will be sufficient to supply the
| demands of the civilized world.

The NEws-HERALD Office is in receipt
of a small package containing part of
the first run of sugar from the Oxnard
Beet Sugar Factory at Grand Island,
Neb. To palate not trained to note
the fine distinction between different
degrees of saccharine excellence, this
stuff tastes as sweet as the snowy pro-
duct of the refneries of Cuba and the
tropical islands. Perhaps the thought
that these minute sparkling crystals are
the product of civilized American labor
on free American soil adds a delicate
flavor which appeals more to the patri-
otic sentiments than to the sensuous
organs of taste.
1t is a pleasure to know that the
virgin soil of the boundless West can be
converted into crystalled sweetness as
well as into the coarser elements of pork
and bread, lard and tallow. 1t is now
an assured fact that an excellent article
OF domestic sugar can be made from the
beet raised on our western farms. It is
significant as illustrating the wisdom of
the American policy to encourage the
protection of American necessities on
American soil. The possibilities opened
up by the establishment of this industry
points to revolution in American agri.
culture. The vast farm areas OF the
North and West have been devoted
almost entirely to the production of

Reciprocity will cut figure in the

be reciprocity as contained in the Nc.
Kinley act, which looks to the admission
OF those articles free into this country
which we do not produce, in considera-
ton OF free admission of our agricultural

OF reciprocity does not infringe upon the

RESTRICTIONS ON IMMIGRATION.
A Step in the Right Direction.

The report of Surgeon. General Hamil
ton to the Secretary of the Treasury, de-
failing the results of his inspection ol
European ports as to their emigration
facilities, is most important document
DR.. Hamilton visited the ports of Lon.
don, Liverpool, Glasgow, Bremen, Ham
burg, Trieste and Napoli. He saw the
emigrants in transit, and the provisions
made for their embarkation and for their
inspection before leaving. He finds that
there are thousands of most undesirable
persons shipped for the United States
and, what is perhaps still more impcr.
tant, he finds that no provision is made
at any of the foreign ports for medical
examination of the emigrants. AS to
assisted emigration, he found no evi
dence Of it, except in the case of persons
leaving for Canada.
In concluding his report the Surgeon.
General recommends that the law be
amended so as to provide that hereafter
any person intending to emigrate to the
United States shall produce to the
United States Consul nearest him evi.
dence from the proper local authorities
satisfactory to the Consul that he has not
been convicted of any crime, that he has
not at any time been public charge in
the country where he lives, nor has at
any time received public aid, and adds
This course would at once place the
immigrant under the surveillance of the
proper officer of the United States
would effectually shut out the criminal
classes and operate very much for the
relief of the inspection bureaus at our
ports of entry. At this time there is no
medical inspection whatever of immi.
grants, except at the port of New York,
and that circumstance will no doubt
have tendency to increase the influx
at the other ports. This statement is
not applicable to cases Of leprosy, yellow
fever or cholera, which cases, when
found, are taken from vessels at the re-
spective quarantines.
This matter of the restriction of immi.
grafton is one about which there is, we
believe, very little difference OF opinion.
Economists, statesmen and sensible men
of all parties are pretty well agreed that
much severer restrictions should be i'm.
posed than have ever been in force at
our ports. The padrone system, although
something has been done toward its
suppression, is still active. Mormon
elders still continue to bring over cargoes
of deluded, ignorant vretches for use in
strengthening their hierarchy. Thou.
sands of debased, brutal, inhuman Great
ures still swarm from the holds oi
European steamers to work in gangs
upon our roads or to wander through
the country begging or stealing from
the people. 1t is time this sort OF thing
should be stopped.-M Y. Mail and E1.

WEEDS on THE FARM.

Nothing is so unsightly on farm
as to see a lot of weeds In the
fields and garden, and in some
cases even in'the yards around the
houses, going to seed in midsum-
MGR. Work may crowd so that
there is some excuse for such a
state of things occasionally, but we
believe if there is the right kind OF
pride in the farmer and his sons
there never would be such a state
of affairs. On many farms, where
there is always an abundance of
hard work to be done, and where
it seems always to beaccomplished,
the fields, fence corners and every
other place are entirely free of
weeds. Time on these model
farms is found to obllterate or keep
down these pests. The Phila-
delphia Record says:
"There are weeds Of spring,
summer and tall, and as the farmer
gets rid OF one, another springs up
to add to his labor. Weeds must
not only be kept down, but des-
troyed. The mistake n cultivating
the fields IN order to get rid of
weeds is that such work is too
mush of a temporary job. Weeds
are treated aStransient customers,
when in reality they are the most
permanent and persistent crops that
appear. 1t requires but two years
for the weeds on fertile land to
crowd out the strawberry vines,
and in some cases they will take
possession of a grass plot entirely.
1t is not sufficient for the farmer
to simply endeavor TO protect his
growing crops from weeds, but he
must, if possible, clean out the
weeds entirely.
"Weeds bear seeds and scatter
them in every direction. Some of
these seeds are so light that the
slightest breeze will carry them to
every portion of the field. As
long as single weed is allowed to
seed, the labor of the farmer in his
attempt to clear his land of weeds
is thrown away. To lessen the
labor and protect the crops the
weeds must be destroyed before
they reach maturity, and thework
is more completely done when the
weeds are young than at any other
time. 1t is the fence corner, the
abandoned fields and the by ways
that afford harboring places tor
weeds. To clear out such places is
to save many days of labor the
next season, and to prevent the
seeding of Ia single weed should be
the object of all the farmers in a
community. The manure heap is
also a harborIng place for weeds.
Many weeds that have gore to
seed are consigned to the manure
heap and the seeds hauled out on
the land in the manure. To avoid
this ali manure should be well
decomposed before spread on the
field. The heap should be turned
over once or twice, so as to thro W
the outer layers to the centre, and
the heating of the mass will destroy
the seeds. The purchasing of un-
clean seed is also sometimes
another mode of brlnglug weeds
on the 1arm."
