THE interest in the possibilities of SUI
gar beet culture in Montana is great
and we should speedily see this a lead
ing industry of our state were it not for
the uncertainty as to the establishment
of a factory for the manufacture of the
raw product into sugar. The New York
Tribune, in commenting on this sub
ject, says:
There would seem to be no reason why
the farmers of the United States should
not produce every ponnd of sugar used by
our people. This result can only be reach
ed, however, when som plan shall be de-
vised whereby a crop of a few acres on each
of the large number of farms in any given
n~eighborhood can be manufactured in that
vicinity. in the same way as corn and other
vegetables. are canned. At present the
plant required for manufacturing beet su-
gar is an expensive one. Farmers are &C
cordingly constantly asking this question:
Can there not be made or invented some
smaller plant which can be put up at an
expense of a few Thousand dollars only,
which will do this work profitably and
well?" The Tribune desires to call the at
tention of the rnachinists of the United
States to this subject. There are an immense
number of small communities which would
| enter upon the growth of sugar-beets in
stantly if such a method of utilizing the
crop could be established. The expert
ments already tried show that beet culture
can produce a net profit of from $50 to SAC
to each acre of ground. What a blessing If
would be to the farmers of the UniteG
States if they could raise the sugar for the
people of the whole country, and thus save
the $780, 0O,O 600 which are sent abroad each
year for low grade sugars. Ihe Tribune
would urge the mechanics of the Unitet
States to study this problem at once.
If some American citizen can do for thu
sugar industry what Eli Whitney did TO,

PASTE AND SCISSORS.

Constantine Ashargan, a Sl0-a-week
clerk In New York, has received word
that he is about TO inherit a fortune.
He has already squandered two fortunes
OF 81, 900, 900 each left him by his par
ents In Greece.
At a g.assworks In White Mills,
Wayne county, Pa, there is on exhibit
tion what Is regarded as the finest set OF
cut glass ever turned out in this coun-
try. II consists OF 80 separate pieces,
and has been ordered by the United
States government for the White
House. On each piece OF the set, from
the mammoth center piece and punch
howl to the tiny salt cellars, is engraved
the coat OF arms OF the United States.
The work alone has occupied months of
time. The total cost will be in the
neighborhood OF 5000.
The man that first sent out a crop re-
port is a. former Chicagoan, now resi-
dent in New York. Thirty years ago
this man had 1900 customers all over
the union. and his credits depended
much upon the condition OF the crops.
One day he hit upon the idea Of asking
all his correspondents for crop reports.
He sent out circular and obtained a
pretty good return. He gave the result
to the newspapers. and it attracted con-
siderable attention. The whole thing
cost him about $50 in postage.
Lathly Nichols OF ThOmaston, Me,
whose diseased arm was recently ampu-
tated, experienced some remarkable
sensations after the operation had hcen
completed, says the New York SUM
After amputation the arm was placed
= n a box In somewhat cramped position,
and Nichols complained Of a severe
pain. Without his knowledge the arm
was placed in a more natural position,
whereupon he expressed great relief.
AS the missing member was carried
away he indicated TO those around him
Just how the box was moved, and when
1t was tipped from level he felt con-
siderable pain. He told when IL was
placed In the ground and indicated by
gestures with his remaining arm every
shovelful OF earth that was thrown up-
on il. expressing much relief when the
interment was over.
One OF the most unique suits ever filed
In Minnesota, says dispatch from 81.
Paul, that placed on the docket OF the
district court court at Minneapolis takes
the blue ribbon. John w. Turner, a
thrifty grocer, asks that Miss Eta
Terwilliger, pretty milliner OF Iowa,
be required TO pay him $1,000 for hirt-
ing. He has been keeping company
with the young lady for some months,
but she gave him up for another. Re
ferring to his suit Turner says: This

Convenient to sal .

Salton has been one OF the largest salt
works on the Pacific coast. All the pro.
prietors had to do was to scrapc the salt
from the surface OF the soil and clean IT.
Few white man could do the work, as the
temperature was sometimes as high as
l2j degrees in the shade and l45 de-
grees in the sun. Says mar who has
been there: 'If one makes the least
oxertion perspirations pours out Of HIM
like water. You cross the room aud
your clothes will be wringing wet; yet
In ten minutes all this water Is evapO
