The production of beet sugar this
year has been greatly overestimated.
According to the calculations of Herr
Lecht it will fall 100000 tons short
of the original estimate. The same
authority claims that the cane sugar
product will fail about 30, 900 tons
short. AS consequence sugar stiff

A BIG BUSINESS.

The growth and present size Of
the great retail business of Vein
stock, Lubin, 81 Co, Sacramento,
shows on the face that it possesses
distinct character of it's own. It
has done much to introduce many
important reforms in bookkeeping,
which have been widely copied
There are people who have never
heard of the big establishment, but
who, through its silent influence,
are being served by local dealers
better than they otherwise would be.
1t has done more than any other
ten stores to give the Zone Price
System firm and substantial foot
ing on the Pacific Coast.
1t has shown people living in
small towns that they can deal
through the mails with as much
security as if they bought in person.
1t has, by constantly raising its
own standard of qualities, had an
influence iE raising the standard
everywhere, The average grade of
goods kept upon the Coast grows
better each year.
1t has been prominent in bring
ing west as stylish and desirable
goods as are kept by merchants in
New York, Philadelphia, or Chicago.
Indeed, the manufacturers who
supply them supply it. The goods
are the same; and the Sacramento
prices, while never higher, are some
times considerably less. This is ex-
planned by the fact that the cost of
conducting business in large East
ern cities is far greater than in the
Capital City, the extra expense of
overland freight being but COM
paratively small item.
1t has made it possible for out
of-town people to enjoy quite as
satisfactory shopping facilities as do
those living in large cities.
There is no desire on the part of
the firm to take any special credit
/ lor whatever influence for good the
house may have exerted. They
have sought simply to build up q
business on fair and just principles;
to buy and sell as low as they can;
to deal as far as possible only in
the very best goods; and neither to
fear nor favor any one, but to treat
every customer as they would their
most favored friend.
Whatever of success has come,
they attribute it to the faithful car
rving out of these aims and prin-
ciples

PLEA FOR THE FARM.

Not day passes by but what we
noble sons of farmers fir III all parts
of the country. 1t is indeed pitiful,
and the question ARISES, wha. occas,
ions itl The first inclination of our
American boys afterthey have arrived
at the age of maturity is to go to some
great City and try and make a living
by some other means than by agri-
culture This has been SO for years,
even so before the profits of farming
were taken away.
Put IN advertisement in a paper
for man and his wife to go to the
country to a farm, with the offer of
fair wages, and you will never get a
reply from an American born man or
woman. Put the same ad in the
paper for bookkeeper at low wages,
and there will be twenty-five appli-
cations for the position inside of three
hours after the paper has been issued
All this shows that there is some
thing wrong in the education of our
people. And the fact is that the
native lands of the country are pass
ing from the ownership of fa.uilies
that settled there, and g,ing into
the hands of foreigners. Again, go
where there is veneration for
the old ountry homes, that fact viii
be an evidence that the old stamina
of the Nation has begun to decline
If men and women only knew how
much of comfort, how much of peace,
goes with tha ownership of a farm,
how much pleasure there is inimprov-
ing and cultivating a farm, it seems
as though it would change the whole
spirit of the people, and the ambi-
ton OF the people would not be to get
a clerkship in the city but to get a
few acres of land in the country. This
feeling ought t. be more pronounced
here in the West, because here in
our mining country the cultivation
of our soil is made more profitable
than in any other spot in America,
except California, and that State
makes her profits off something that
will not grow in colder state.
The memory of the old home, the
old farm, has kept more boys from
going to the dogs in later life where
trouble came to them, than all else
besides. When tempted they have al
ways thought of where they were
born, have thought of their mothers
either there or gone beyond, and
they shrink from doing anything
which, if that mother in this world,
or the other, would give her pain to
know, and when men give up the |
love of the farm, when they cease to
appreciate the manhood which comes |
from a training on farm, then that
people, we do not care how strong
the stock may be has, begun to de-
cline. This is so important, that if
for no other reason than to reawaken
the love of the farm which would
come if some profits could be realized
from the work there, it ought to
cause Congress to make such an adj
justment of the finances of the
country as would leave the tiller of
the soil little profit for his work.

Cyclone and Tornado.

A cyclone, properly speaking, is a
storm covering vast extent of country
some are one or two thousand miles in
diameter-and having a system of winds
which really blow spirally round and
gradually in toward the center of the
storm, although, owing to the great ex-
tent of the storm, the wind at any par
ticular place seems to be blowing straight
ahead.
Near and around the center, and espe-
cially ahead Of it, for the whole storm
advances generally toward the east or
northeast, rain falls in greater or less
quantities. At the center the air is
lightest, or the pressure shown by the
barometer is least, and that is the rea-
son the winds are all drawn in that di-
rection. The spiral motion arises from
the effects of the rotation of the earth.
Almost every storm that we have, ex-
cept summer thunder showers, is a cy-
clonic storm.
A tornado is fierce whirlwind whose
path is generally only few rods wide,
although it may travel for many miles,
destroying everything in its way. A
black, funnel shaped cloud is always a
feature of the tornado. This funnel is
formed by condensed vapor and clouds
of dust and debris in the very core of
the whirlwind, and wherever it passes
nothing but the solid ground can with
stand it.-Youth's Companion.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 12.-A case involving
the same question as that In the Say
ward case, AS to the jurisdiction OF this
country over the waters Of Behring sea

case the brief in the Sayward case, except
that the name Of the vessel was changed.
The case is that of an American schooner,

court on an appeal from the district court
Of Alaska. William Johnson opened the
case for the appellant, covering the same
line of argument that was taken in the
Sayward case except that the matter re-

Solicitor General Taft made n brief argu-

same arguments a. those shown by the

that Mr.. johnson and Mr.. Calderon Car

Continued by the Bringing Up Of the

WASHINGTON, Nov. l2-Baron Fava, the
late Italian minister, who presented so
many bellicose messages TO Secretary
Blaine on account Of the New Orleans in
cident, will be back here soon, with the
rank Of ambassador. The war fever
against the Americans has pretty well
blown over, and Italy is once more anxious
to establish cordial relations.
The Italians are hoping that congress,
soon after II meets, will vote small in
demnity TO the families OF the men who
were killed at New Orleans, and they will
then be quite ready to forgive and forget
the entire incident. II congress acts with
promptitude the return Of Baron Fava
will probably he delayed until after action
has been taken, but he will come anyway.
The recent action Of the Italian govern
ment in removing the restrictions on
American pork shows that it does not pro-
pose TO occupy a hostile attitude against
the United States, and Baron Fava will
be here again as the representative of King
Humbert, even IL no substantial satisfac-
tion is given for the New Orleans killings.
