MANUFACTURE OF SUGAR.

The question is often asked if beet sugar cannot be made in small way so that six or seven farmers could club to- gether, put up a cheap apparatus and produce their own sugar. On account of the elaborateness of the process and the costly nature of the machinery which is necessary to produce beet sugar even in a small way, it is not believed that it could be protitably made in the way in- dicated.
 The cost of manufacture depends on as many factors as that of beet-growing. Chief among these are transportation, fuel, weather and labor. Perhaps the most important of these factors is the price of fuel. In some localities coal can be had for $l.25 per ton; in others the cost may reach as high as $l0 per ton.
 The manufacture of beet sugar is still so much of an experimentinth in this country as to render any exact account of its cost impossible. To show what it may be, with large experience and the highest skill and management, l give the mean cost of manufacture in 1l3 German fac tories, from data of the campaign of lSS9-90.

THE consummation of reciprocity with Venezuela will prove highly beneficial both to that republic and the United States. At present we import from Venezuela about $1O,OO0,000 worth of merchandise yearly. We only send her $4,000, 900 worth in return. This leaves a balance of trade of $6,000,000 against us-an improbable condition which reciprocity would be pretty sure to do away with. Reciprocal trade with the United States would stimulate greatly the sugar production of Venezuela, and that country has sugar producing ca pacity which is enormous.

It affords pleasure to the management of THE REPUBLICAN to be entitled to &C., knowledge a steady and marked increase in the circulation. This, doubtless, is the best, as it is the most substantial, evidence that could be given that it is gaining the approval and confidence of the people. The more so is this gratify- ing, as the new subscribers rank among the best and most substantial residents of Arizona; these invariably have mani tested their kindly feeling, not simply by becoming subscribers, but by their accompanying favorable and kindly ex- pressions of appreciation.

Profit per ton of beets ........... g 26
 The mean net profit for each factory was $S4 ,240. The price paid for beets, however, is in most cases fictitious, the beet growers owning the factory, and preierring to share in the general prof it's rather than charge high price for the beets. First class beets rarely sell for less than $5.25 per ton. The West ern Beet Sugar Company, of Watson vile, California, stated that in it's first campaign, lSSS-S9, the cost of making sugar amounted to $sO.SO per ton. At the present time it appears that with the best machinery and most economi- cal processes beet sugar can be made in this country at cost of from four to five cents per pound.

ON ADVERTISING.

Advertisers should tell their story in the right way and to the largest number of people of the kind they wish to reach and at the least proportionate cost. It is not always an easy matter to do this, but the ordinary business man who can discriminate in buying goods should be able to make as fine a distinction be- tween papers which have a known cir culation and those which have little or none to speak of. Money expended in a haphazard way is usually wasted, but when judiciously invested and looked after it brings ir golden returns. The great trouble with some business men is that they got at advertising in spas modic way and expect immediate re- turns-a thing which, as a rule, is im- probable. Only transient trade can be expected from this effervescent sort of advertising. To get the full benefit from an advertisement it should be continued day by day in an attractive manner and with frequent changes.
 To take an advertisement out in "dull times" is as great mistake as it would be to discharge your best clerk or move into cramped quarters. There is no economy in. it. It is tacit acknowledgment that your busi- ness does not justify you in advertising and people look at it in just that way. A bright, wide-awake advertisement is a tale of prosperity in itself, for without doing a good business you cannot afford to advertise. Customers know this. When business man places a page ad- vertisement in the SUNDAY EDITION of THE REPUBLICAN or carries "healthy looking" advertisement during the week, every reader knows that it takes money to pay for it and the concirn must make money to pay thers bills. As logical conclusion the firm that makes the money gives the bargains and gets the trade or they would not make the money. Buyers can benefit themselves by keeping these points in mind.
