No agricultural crop, for half a
century, has been as profitable as
sugar under favorable conditions.
These conditions are gradually
changing. It cannot be expected
that an educated, intelligent farmer
in the United States will receive
less for his work than the sugar
planter. An equalization of values
gradually takes place all over the
world. Unfortunately for US on
these islands, we are being levelled
downward instead of upward.

BEET SUGAR.

l. is now estimated that the
sugar beet crop near Chino, Cali
fornia, will be about 10000 tons.
This is considerably over one-halt
of the annual product of these
islands, and a large increase over
the product of the last year in
California.
Less than twelve years ago many,
If not all, of the sugar planters upon
these islands refused to believe that
this industry would prove profit
able in any part of the United
States. They regarded the attempts
to cultivate the beet as wild
cat" agricultural operation, and
placidly smiled on the enthusiasts
who predicted any success in the
attempt. They claimed upon this,
as they did upon all subjects con-
nected with sugar production, a
very superior knowledge. But they
failed to see that the American
farmer would steadily push any
schemes which promised better
results than grain raising. They
repeated the experience of the men,
in all communities, who believe
that good thing will always re-
main good thing, and is superior
70 the vicissitudes of trade. To
what extent the increased sugar
product of the United States will
affect the sugar interests of the
islands it is impossible to say. The
conservative opinion is, that well
managed plantations here will con-
tinue to pay fair profits in spite of
competition.
The planters should be the first |
of all to encourage varied indus

event of the failure of sugar invest. |
ments to pay. No doubt many of |
them would like to see varied in

same time, some of them feel that
such industries may increase the
price of labor and work injury to

tuction DOW is that the opening up |

DR.. VINCENT recently reported to
the Academy of Sciences at Paris
the result of experiments for the
purpose of determining the best
disinfectants for rendering fecal
matters innocuous. He required of
each disinfectant that it should kill
all pathogenic microbes, including
the bacillus coli communis and the
bacteria of putrefaction. His ex-
periments showed that the best of
all disinfecting agents for the des-
truction of fecal matters in vaults
and cesspools is sulphate of copper
employed in connection with one
per cent. OF sulfuric acid. The
quantity of sulfate of copper re-
quired was one pound for every
three cubic feet of focal matter
mixed with urine. Half of this
quantity was found sufficient to
destroy the cholera bacillus. It
was found necessary that the dis
infectant should remain in contact
with the infectious material for at
least twelve hours.

Interesting information re-
garding the street railway in
dustry in the United States is
furnished by a table recently
published, giving the mileage,
cars, stock and debts of all the
roads in the country, and some
important facts are brought
out by them.
Out of 81, 58S miles of track
(976 roads), 10, 363 miles are
electric and only $50 miles are
cable; the balance being either
elevated or horse power.
The table shows to what
extent electricity has supplant-
ed other means of locomotion.
The extent of capitalization
is another feature calculated to
draw attention.
While theaverage capitaliza-
ton of steam roads amount to
about 100000 per mile, the
capitalization of the street
roads is as high as $4,000 per
mile.
There is something strange
about this contrast, as street
do not generally have
to buy the right of way.
1t is plain that the stock
waters have been doing a
great deal of the recent street
