Advantages of Producing Our
Own Sugar.

A plant or beet sugar factory
costing $500, 900 will use, say, 300
tons of beets a day, during a scam
paign" of 100 days, each ton pro-
ducing an average of 165 pounds of
sugar or a total out ut Of 4, 1850, 900
pounds. This is probably consid-
erably over the average mark, be-
cause it has not resulted in the
past in this country But even on
this basis it would take 800 beet
factories to produce the requisite
i, 900, 900, 900 pounds of sugar for
home ons ption.
The average beet yie'd is pr)ba
bly, IL tons to the acre, often more,
and sometimes less, but on this
basis it would take rs acres of
beets per day, or $500 acres, to
supply n factory during q "cam-
paign," say 1900, 900 acres per
annum to give us sugar enough for
our own supply.
The labor in the factory on a ton
of beets is from 81 SO /" 81 81 per
ton, or, say, $3.50 per day; SIS, 900
in a campaign in n factory, TO
say nothing of the amount paid out
for labor in the field to grow the
beets. In 800 factories it would be
$50, 600, 900. The coal, coke. lime.
stone, bags and oil, per ton OF beets
worked cost sl.37, or SAIL per day
SAL, 100 in a "campaign" and in
800 factories our railways would
receive in transportation charges
IS, $50, 600.
These are only some of the con-
siderations which enter into the
question of producing our own
sugar, giving employment in our
own country to labor in divers
directions, and especially in the
coal, coke aud limestone industries

UnpuSiness About the Matter.
The high rate of sterling exchange and
the concomitant incident Of gold exports
are attrac citing attention at the Treasury
Department.
Such gold shipments are not usual at this
season of the year, but with the balance OF
trade still against the United States be-
cause of the continual heavy imports, they
are not regarded as unreasonable
On November ! the Treasury gold re-
serve stood $92,943,179: on Saturday
last it stood at S92, ,766,674. a loss for the
month. to date, of $176, 6,505. During that
time $3.50. .499 of United States notes and
Treasury notes have been redeemed in gold.
The difference between the loss in the gold
reserve for the month. to date-S176, ,6O5.
the amount of notes redeemed-$533, 499,
which is 1856, ,994, shows the amount of
gold gained by the Treasury In the ordinary
course o ofbusiness. but all of which and more
has been lost by notes presented for re.
demption In gold. Treasury officials ex.
press no uneasiness aboue the resunptjon
OF gold exports, and think, il any a re made

The commission charged with the es-
tablishment of the Chickamaugs and Chat
tanooga National Park has submitted to
the Secretary OF War a report covering
the operations during the year ending Oc-
tobcr 81, 1896.
The report shows that of the roads pro-
vided for in the act of Congress establish
ing the park, forty-two miles have been con-
strucied. upon which much work has been
done in making repairs and betterment. 1t
was found necessary 10 construct 5. .32S
feet of fencing or guard rails at certain
places of danger on the Missionary Ridge
road, and additional guards at other points
of danger will be necessary on this road.
At the date of the last report, November
l, 1894. the park comprised 5.521.25
acres. THE Sherman Fighting Ground"
Oh Missionary Ridge, has since been pur-
chased, and is now part of the park. max
ing an addition OF forty-seyen acres, bring
ing the total number of acres to 5.56S.25.
The sum OF S27, ,s29.95 hasbeen expended
for lands. Efforts to secure additional
lands were made, but were discontinued
because of the exOrbitant prices asked by
the owners, and difficulties which at
tended the acquisition by condemnation

FULL SCOPE OF The LAW
Regulations Concerning Contagious
Diseases Must Be Carried Out.
Test Case as to Charging the Cost of
Distnfection Decided by the
Com N iss toner's.

Under the law enacted 10 prevent the
spread OF contagious diseases in the Dis
trict, 1t is made incumbent upon the
health office, In conjunction with the at
tending physician, to cause the premises
as well as the bedding and clothing that
became contaminated to be thoroughly
disinfected, and the expense attached must
be borne by the occupant OF the dwelling
and the owner Of the clothing.
While this is Il seeming hardship in many
instances, the health office has NO dis
cretiou in the matter, the law expressly
providing that to secure payment of the
charges by the District the applicant must
file an affidavit setting forth that he or
slit. is too poor TO nIeei The expense
A case in point came before Dr. Wood
ward this morning, where citizen OBJ
jected to pay the bin incurred for disin
fecting some clothing, and yet could not
make tbe affidavit required. He COR
tended that he was unable 20 pay the
amount. Notwithstanding the value OF his
possessions exceeded the legal limit OF
Sl00.
To settle all doubts as 10 the scope of
the law DR.. Woodward submitted a sam
pie case TO the auditor TO know II he would
pass voucher that omitted the value
clause from the affidavit. II was decided
that the regulations would have to be
complied with, but in this particular case
II was arranged SO al not TO work hard
ship to the Individual He was thrown out
OF employment by reason of the presence OF
scarlet fever an his house, and was unable
to pay the charges In order to take the
clothing from the station, and 1t was de-
cided to await his convenience.
DIR. Woodwa rd said this morning that had
Congress passed the appropriation bill as
asked for at the last session the health de-
partment would have by this time been in a
position to do the disinfecting without
charge in any case. That is the object of
establishing "A disinfecting plant, now under
contract. and what will no W be n eeded is an
appropriation for a force adequate to the
needs of the service.
The argument advanced in support of
the adoption OF such q method is that while
the citizens will do the work OF disinfeciing
their own premises to the best of their
ability. there is necessarily lack OF eff
cheney in all such cases. resulting from in.
experience, and that with trained force at
command the work can be thoroughly and
systematically done.
1t is the purpose of the health depa rtment.
with the consent of Congress, to have all
disinfecting work done gratis, under its
supervision.

The theory OF suicide il utterly rejected
by the family. who say Mrs. Cummins was
very happy on leaving home Saturday

are that in the storm and darkness of Satur-
