BEET AND WHEAT CROPS.

1t may encourage the California agri-
culturist to perseyere with beet culture, as
one OF the uiost promising industries of the
soil, to learn that the growth of beets Is now
advocated in England as a substitute for
wheat. Cereals are so low in price that
with all his advantages of proximity to
markets the English farmer is in despair.
Ot late little more than Sc rer quarter OF
from $50 to 500 pounds has been obtainable
for wheat. Al an average of twenty-nlne
or thirty bushels, or four and bali quar-
ters, per acre the te nant farmer mas only
S2I out of which TO pay rent, laOor. taxes
and number of other charges. But II the
price of beets for sugar-making Is MAIN
tanned the agrieulturist may raise thirteen
tons per acre, and at S4 80 per toD-the pre-
vaillng average in Europe-the gross return
is S58 80, and the profit is estimated at S13
per acre. A crop may fetch considerably
more than the price quoted. This is almost
100 roseate calculation to dangle before
the British agriculturist, bur at all events
he is being assured that beet cultiya-
tion will succeed as well in the
United Kingdom as on the continent of
Europe. DR.. Gustaf Schaack-Sommer is
the authority who advocates the new de-
parture in John Bulls agricultural enter
prise. He declares that the roots grown in
twenty-seven of the English, Irish and
Scotch counties are. on the average, richer
in saccharine than the average of Cont
mental beets. The consumption of sugar In
the United Kingdom is about 1900 600 tons
per year, and, although the business OF re-
fniDg sugar is carried on extensively, the
raw material comes from all quarters Of the
globe. If it pays the French, German, Aus
trian and English cultlvator 10 grow beets,
it surely must be profitable to produce crops
of beets in California. where sunshine and
warmth, which are often deficient in Eu-
rope. are never lacking. A beet crop can
never be failure in the sense of quantity
and quality in this State. Wheat is also a
certain crop, but it fetches very unre-
muneratve price both abroad and at home,
and beets are in increasing demand for
conversion into sugar. The residue of the
pulp is also valuable for cattle-feeding.

dren who do not receive proper hOme-train-
ing. The law ii enforced would pot apply
to the children of parents who have any
proper conception of the responsibilities
nature has devolved upon them. The chill
dren who would attend school in obedience
TO law are the unfOrtunates whose parents
are Indifferent to other than mere physical
wants.
The school course as now established is
not such as can be enforced by law. Too
much of the pupils time is devoted to non-
essentials. Admitting that these ornamen-
tai branches of study are desirable, the law
could not easily compel parents to sur
port children during the school period
necessary to acquire them. The CALL has
often protested against the introduction
into our course of public school study of
what is coming TO be known as school fads.
A pupil makes no greater progress now liz
the rudimental branches of study in forty
two weeks than one did half a century ago
i'll twelve weeks. The present course is
higher and better for those who can attend
school during their entire min nority, but 1t is
not adapted TO The class of pupils whom a
compulsory law would send to school for
twelve weeks each year between the age OF
Z years ana IA Pupils whose school educa-
ton is limited to that time should devote
all their time to the Tudimentary branches
Of study. 1t is undoubtedly true that our
public schools are getting farther and far
ther from the class Of pupils they were de-
signed 10 reach. Educators have progressed
beyond the means of the masses of children.
This Is one reason why the school rolls only
show about two-thirds of the children of
school age in the city. and is the powerful
reason why a compulsory law is needed.

TAKING HAY.

Chicago is likely to have the blame for all
the extortion that wille be practiced On Wis
itOrs TO the Worlds Fair Schemers will
flock to Chicago from all parts of the world,
and when they practice their arts upon the
tenderfoOt it will be in the name of Chi
cago people. In compensation for their
unpleasant notoriety the city will be richer
by a hundred millions or so when the fair is
over than when it assem- bles. The Chicago
Times tells of hotel speculation now
progressing in the hands of the Columbian
Fair Excursion Company. That company
has just leased four four-story hotels in the
Worlds Fair distric: for six months at a
rental Of S239, ,172. The four hotels contain
about 500 rooms. Under ordinary condi-
tions the rental of the rooms would not
average above $50 a month each. A good
or better rooms can be rented in this city
at from SIS TO $50 a month. But the rev.
enue from the SEQ rooms for six months, at
$50 a month each. would be but S144 600, or
$4,000 each month. The company, how
ever, pays S239, 172, which is about $50 a
month for each room. They expect TO rent
the rooms to visitors at rates which will re-
turn the Wholesale rental OF $50 a month
for each room, pay the cost of service and
enable the company to double the money
at stake. To do this rooms could not be
rented at less than S4 perd day. The Worlds
Fair managers are inviting people to come
to the fair ON the assurance that cOmforta-
Bile rooms can be had at from 81 to So per
day. The Columbian Excursion Company
evidently 10 not place much faith in these
assertions; if they did they would not enter
into speculation on the basis of 81 per day
