A Movement for Home Sugar.

The American Agriculturist is
strongly advocating the establish
ment of beet sugar factories through
ont the west on the cooperative plan
1t argues that there is sufficient idle
capital in the leading monied centers
of the East to build all the factories
necessary to supply this nation with
sugar, and that if farmers will form
cooperative bodies in sufficient num-
bers to be able to give satisfactory
guarantees to grow beets in sufficient
quantities to sustain factory in
their respective localities, there will
be no trouble in securing capital to
erect factories. This statement in
the face of the government bounty
and the fact that we import $780,,
600, 900 worth of sugar certainly
seems plausible. Nevertheless, in
this State, which possesses superior
advantages in soil and climate for
sugar beet culture, the first factory
is yet to be built upon this plan. In
the great corn States sugar beets, in
the event of the erection of factories,
would prove more profitable than
corn. There is certainly a great
future for the industry, and all praise
to every enterprising and public
spirited endeayor to encourage and
increase the home production of
sugar from the sugar beet.

Suspending Immigration.

Section Z of the quarantine bill as
passed by the Senate in amended
form reads
That whenever it shall be shown
to the satisfaction of the President
that by reason of the existence of
cholera or other infectious or contag-
ious diseases in any foreign country
there is serious danger of the intro
duction of the same into the United
States, and Notwithstanding the
quarantine defense the danger is Sc
increased by the introduction of per-
sons or property from such countries
that the suspension of the right to
introduce the same is demanded in
the interest of public health, the
President shall have power to pro
hibit, in whole or in part, the intro
duction of persons and property from
such countries or places as he shall
designate, and for such period OF
time as he may deem necessary.
An appropriation of 81 900, 600 is
made to enable the President tc
carry the act into effect. Compensa.
tion is to be made for quarantine
buildings and property received from
States and municipalities, and the
act of March 3, 1879, establishing q
National Board of Health, is re
pealed.

Nicaragua Canal.

Delegate f. j. Odendahl, president
of the New Orleans Board of Trade,
said concerning the Nicaragua canal:
The Pacific Coast region will of
course be the greatest beneficiary of
the construction and operation of the
Nicaragua canal and we believe our
section will stand next, though this
is hard to say, the whole country will
be so vastly benefited.
The population in this country is
daily increasing and it is producing
larger and greater crops, 50 that our
production is increasing at an i'm
mense ratio over the increase of con
sumption. For the past twenty five
years the increase in production has
been steadily going on, but no new
avenues of trade have been opened
to meet it. An average crop of
either of the great agricultural prod
ucts causes depressed values below
the possible cost of production. An
| 5000, 900 to 100000 bale crop of
cotton will be matter of ordinary
occurrence in the future but the con
sequences with only the present out
lets for its disposition will be fearful
for the planter. 1t is the duty of our
Government and every commercial
body in this country, and especially
of our boards of trade, to see that
new avenues for the disposition of
these surplus crops are created.
The Nicaragua canal is one which
will open to America large and new
fields for the consumption of cotton
and cotton goods. Nearly 1000, 600
bales of this article are consumed
yearly on the eastern coast of Asia,
for which the Southern ports will be,
by means of this canal, the direct
basis of supply, being nearer than
any other direct cotton ports of the
world Englands commercial great
ness is due to her aggressive com
mercial policy. She pushes her
wares and aids all British CONNER
cial enterprises wherever she can.
The United States should follow her
example and find new and larger
fields for her surplus crops, no mat
ter at what cost. If she does not
our country will suffer immensely in
the near future from overproduction.

declaration in favor of an appropria-
tion by Congress to make survey of
routes for the canal. Speaking of
the extent of internal improvements
in this country, Mr. Ely said that the
impression prevailed that the United
States expended more than any other
nation, As Il matter of fact he said,
there had been expended, all told, 10y
the National and State Governments
rom l1S7 to 1890, for the improve
mSnt of rivers and harbors and the
building of canals less than $3.50, 600,
600. France has expended over
$500, 600, 900, with nothing like the
expectation of permanent benefit
that promises 70 the United States.
Ely stated that his platform
would be in favor of a waterway from
the lake to the sea over the territory
of the United States and complete
independence of and a cessation of
Legislation in favor of Canadian
transportation. A committee ON
resolutions was appointed and letters
were read from President-elect Cleve-
land, Vice Present Morton and other
regetting their inability to be pre-
sent.
The Resolutions Committee has
prepared report asking Congress
for an appropriation to make sur
vey and thus to determine whether
or not ship canal from the lakes is
feasible.

Poultry Pointers,

Cooked turnips make an excellent
winter feed for ducks and geese.
Tansy is said to be disliked by lice.
Put it to some use in your henhouse.
A fowl may be forced to lay eggs
and put on flesh, but it takes time in
both cases.
So far as it can be avoided moth
ing that will cause dampness should
be used in the poultry house
If poultry are confined if they are
not given good variety they eat
much that had better be let alone.
Warm quarters, occupied with
young hens fed a mixed diet, ought
to give eggs on through the winter.
Some fowls seem naturally dis
posed to contagious diseases, and
while with good care they may be
kept up they should never be used
for breeding.
One of the strongest elements of
success in farming is faith in the soil.
AS class, farmers seem to feel that
money laid away in the soil is dead
property.
