This makes the cost of working ton
of cleaned cane, with factory OF the
capacity OF ours, about 81 per ton for
Labor and fuel, or 80 cents per ton OF
Heeii3 cane. The cost per ton sor salaries,
insurance, wear and tear, etc., must de-
pend, of course, not only upon the size
of the salaries and other general ex-
penses, but the number of tons worked.
This plant, rated as above, is capable,
in seventy days, of working 9450 tons OF
chips, or II, 300 tons of field cane. There
is necessarily considerable expense in
preparing for the seasons work, and
again in closing up. Allowing literally
1Or this and for the proper management
and control OF the works, we may still
bring our total expenses, outside the
cost of labor and fuel, at 81 per ton upon
the above basis. Add to this the cost
Of labor and fuel, and we have 81 per
ton as the total cost per ton OF working
cleaned cane. These figures are fully
verified by our pay-rolls, coal bills and
other expenses while working to our
capacity during the season, separated
from expenditures in the completion
and changing sof machinery directly
connected with experiments made.
And to work factory with a capacity
at least one-half greater than this one
would require very little additional ex-
pense except in the matter of fuel, and
that would be relatively less.
We do not presume to say that sugar
can be produced in this state as cheaply
as at the east; but there should be
something like a fair relative cost be-
tween the two sections of the country in
its manufacture. When, however, we
are coolly told by the Express that the
cost of producing sugar at Chino is five
cents per pound, we beg to say it is not
true. There is no reason that beets
should not be worked at the same price
per ton as cane, and as the beets at
Chino are said to contain Is per cent of
sucrose, or 300 pounds of sugar per ton,
this would bring the cost up to one
third of cent per pound to make it,
outside the cost of the sugar in the
beets, the cost of salaries, insurance,
wear and tear, etc. OF course the fuel
and labor asset would be somewhat
larger here than at the east. But, on
the other hand, we would have the ad-
vantage of a longer season to produce
and work the beets in.
Raw sugar was quoted in San Fran
cisco at 2l5 cents per pound last week.
AS our evening contemporary places the
cost OF refining this sugar at q of one
cent per pound, it seems very puzzling
to get the cost of production and manu-
facture OF refined sugar up to 8 cents
per pound, no matter what process is
employed.
Our excuse for devotiDg attention to
the economy of the sugar industry in all
its parts is in the fact that we believe it
il destined to be great industry in this
section of the state. We have the
aathority OF Professor Wiley, of the
United States agricultural department.,
for the declaration that Southern Cali

THE COST OF MAKING SUGAR.

In the discussion of the sugar Ques-
tion. which is one of immense import
ance to the people of California, and es-
pecially of this part of the state, the
HERALD said that sugar was made at the
east, at cost as low as one-half cent
per pound. The Express took exception
TO the statement and treated it as OBJ
surd. Whilst we do not claim that this
is the uniform cost of the manufacture
of sugar at the east, yet we have the au-
thority of a report from w. L. Parkin-
son, superintendent of the Fort Scott,
Kansas, sugar mandatory, which
proves the reliability of the statement.
I'm order that our readers may have a
clear idea of the detailed cost of the
manufacture at the Fort Scott works, we
reproduce the report as published in
bulletin No. IL of the United States
department of agriculture, division of
chemistry, 27 ct seq, as follows:
The capacity OF one factory is limited
to the capacity of the diffusion battery.
Working twenty-five hours per day,
this battery can comfortably handle 135
tons of chips, or cleaned cane. This
represents a capacity of field cane, or
cane with seed tops and blades, of about
17O tons. To handle this. aside from
curing and handling seed, costs US per
day of twenty-five hours, when running

Chapel Services.

Father Charles Corcoran conducted the services
Before beginning the regular service he spoke a
few words of the death of officer W. B. Ciley and
asked for pray for the repose Of his soul. The
text of the mornings sermon was from Matt. xiii.
30: He that is not with me, is against me-" We
give but brief outline of the sermon.
There has always been opposition to Christ. He
was opposed when here in person and when He
was gone the opposition was transferred to His fol-
lowers and continues on down to the present time.
Men must accept Christ or reject Him; there is no
neutral ground. God requires our alteration and
obedience. We must be for Him or against Him.
We may choose our position on His side, but it
must be an active one. We must join the ranks
of His followers and share their responsibilities.
God does not allow His adherents to assume the
position of idle onlookers. We should be ready
at all times to obey His commands. Take as an
illustration political system, we see the same
exactng disposition on the part of the leaders.
We are required to be loyal active and selfsacri-
fcing. We are required to throw our whole
strength into the contest. Will God be content
with less? Is He alone to be put off with profess
sions Of loyalty? Is He not worthy of active sup
port? There has always been opposition to the
doctrines Of Christ. Men have used every earthly
power within their grasp to overthrow Christian
ity; they have attacked it from every side with
learning, science and every other available force
but notwithstanding their we'll planned and ire.
mendous assaults the Christian faith remains I'M
shaken. While these assaults of the faith con.
tinue it is not reasonable to suppose that there
should not be determined efforts to sustain it,
Do what we will we must be with one side or the
other Resolve to be soldier of Christ. We
should fight with Him here below if we hope to be
with Him above.

Number and Value of the Various Kinds
as Reported to the Department of Agri-
culture.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE esti-
mates of numbers and values of farm
animals, made at the end of each year
and returnable in January to the De-
partment of Agriculture, have been
consolidated There appears to have
been little change in numbers except
on the Pacific coast and in certain
portions of the Rocky mountain
area, where the winter of 1889
90 was unusually severe. Losses
were especially heavy on the Pacific
slope. The number of horses on farms,
as reported, is IA, 056, $50, and the aver
age price Of all ages, S67, a decline from
last year Of Sl.S+. The number of mules
is 2,296,53 having an average value of
S77.ss, decline from last year of thir-
ty-seven cents The number of mich
cows is 16,019,591, an increase of 66, 7OS
from last year. The average value per
head is $21.G2, which is less by fifty-two
cents than last years average. There is
tendency to increase of dairying in the
South, especially in the mountain re-
gion, which offers inducements of cheap
lands and abundant grasses. Other
cattle aggregate 36,s75,64s, including
those on ranches. The highest value is
$2S.64 in Connecticut; the lowest S.. 4G
in Arkansas, and in Texas $3.50. The
estimated number of sheep is 43, 43l, 1873;
the average value $2.51, or an
increase of "a cents or more
than 10 per cent. All other kinds
of farm animals have declined
slightly in price. A tendency to in
crease of numbers is seen in most of
the States, though the heavy losses
from the severe winter of last year on
the Pacific slope have decreased the
aggregate. The aggregate of numbers
of swine is 50,625, LOG, showing a de.
cline Of nearly 2 per cent. The aver.
age value is S4.15, a decrease of fifty.
seven cents per head. The scarcity OF
corn caused slaughter Of stock hogs
in poor condition, tending to glut the
market, and reduce the price tempo
rarily.
