The Louisiana Lottery

what would be the fate of the bill.

it be waiting for the action of legis-

The recent expressions of the Meth
odist and Baptist churches in connec-
ton with the resignation of Rev.
Whitelaw of the Congregational
church is an evidence of the non-sec.
tartan spirit that in these later and
better days is finding development in
the Christian world. The tendency of
Christian people to cut themselves in
to numberless factions and parties
with the bigoted and often bitter spir-
it that bias attended it has done more
to develop and foster infidelity than
the teachings of all the Ingersolls the
world has produced. We attend in.
discriminatory the various churches

seems no essential difference in teach.

the day to be near when in this
place there will be lone fold'' and the
expense of running so much extra
machinery be devoted to philanthropy
ic Christian work proper. A man of
excellent abilities could be sustained,
who would attract and edify, and the
cause of religion placed upon much
more dignified and healthful basis.
We are more than pleased at the good
sense and spirit manifested in the res
olutions of the churches mentioned,

Free Analysis of Sugar Beets at the
Experiment Station.

The subject of sugar production
from the beet is very properly, at
tracing considerable attention at this
time, and many of our farmers are de-
sirous of ascertaining whether their
soil and local conditions are suitable to
to the growth of beets rich in sugar.
This is most important topic, and
the first that should be looked into in
considering the subject of producing
sugar from the beet. In order to
help the cause along, the Wisconsin
Agricultural Experiment Station of
fers to make analysis of sugar beets
grown within the state, which may be
sent to it next fall, free of charge.
Seed can doubtless yet be obtained on
| application to j. M. Rusk, Secretary
of Agriculture, Washington, ID. c.,
and may be planted any time up to
| June LIST. Seed should be planted in
good garden soil, in drills Is inches
apart, the plants to stand about six
inches in the row. Large beets are
not suitable for sugar production; the
most desirable specimens weigh about
one pound each.
