IN THE HOP FIELDS.
Features Of Life Among the Hop Picker
of New York.

Features OF Life Among the Hop Pickers
of New York.
Perhaps in no section of the United
States is there more prolific hop
territory than may be found in the
counties OF Schoharie and Otsego,
says the Albany Argus, where nearly
every available foot of ground is
studded with the poles under which
thousands of young and old people
annually earn and enjoy their vaca
tions. Albany county, too. has a
number of hop fields. The agents
point out this feature of the hop
picking pursuit as the main argument
in enlisting recruits.
Each yard is invariably equipped
with a dancing pavilion, or barr
metsmorphose into one. and in the
evenings fun reIgns unchecked The
fun, by the way, forms large section
of the recompen e for the days labor,
the money consideration being of such
slight proportions as to form no CON
siderable matter of worry.
Albany generally furnishes the bulk
OF assistance to the farm owners ir
the persons of girls, women. young
and old. men whose regular avoca-
tions do not demand their services al
this season of the year, and who find
this the only available means of TAX
ing vacation.
One Of the agents told an Argus
man recently that the main troubles
to be contended with in the business
were the hop lice and the bug juice,
the former on the vines and the lat
ter in the pickers. Thee is no
known remedy to suppress the hop
lice evil. but the bug juice tendency
has been successfully ccntended with
by the application OF the summary
dismissal principle

marked mainly by the sound of song
and the squeak of the country violin
as the various groups send vocal in
cense to Apollo. or beat in merry
cadence their pedal tribute to Terp-
sichore.
some OF the pickers make lots of
dollars at the hop yards. The ways
taken BY this money are various.
Some who believe that industry,
frugality. ana economy lead the way
to wealth put by the proceeds of
their hop picking. Other pickers
only go for the jolly times. The
Albany police have tradition that
when the hop pickers come back
arrests are plenty.

Irrev.r-uc. in the Quaker CITY.

An uptown church has recently
undergone great alterations, and
during the course of the work a
great lot of old wood was accumu
lated which was perfectly good Tor
kindling purposes but was not of
much account for anything else The
superintendent of the building, think
ing to have the wood removed at the
least possible cost, started about to
dispose of il BY sale. Accordingly.
picking out u nice. smooth board. he
inscribed it as follows: Wood for
sale by the load" The board had
been exposed only a short time when
some wag saw the chance for a good
joke and changed the letter IA in
the word ..load" to an .r." and for
days the sign stood out in front Of
the church reading; Wood for sale

Room Tor More Sugar Beets.

The culture Of sugar beets by Irrigation
seems certain to constantly grow in impor-
tance rs an industry. Ii has paid farmers
well and been equally profitable to factories
when they could obtain a sufficient supply.
This years crop of sugar, counting both
beets and cane is expected to be better than
last year, but condition OF sugar cane in the
seven surplus sugar states averages 80. or but
one point higher than last year. The agri-
cultural department places our crop at 232,-
500 long tons, including IL, 900 tons of beet
sugar, against 2lS,725 tons last year. But the
Cuban and West India crop is likely to be SO
reduced that with a shortage Of 100000 tons
in the European crop of beet sugar, the au-
thority quoted estimates the sugar product OF
the world at nearly 800 600 tons less than last
year-a deficiency Of about per cent. Prices
Are more ';ely to be affected by changes in
legislation than by changes in production.
OF the worlds crop, about 1900, 900 tons
come from cane and 3.40O.0O0 tons from
be Is, making a total of 6, 400, 600 long tons in

there are eight small Offices on the

Fair ticket offices will be erected at once
