Beet Sugar Facts.

Secretary Wilson, of the Department
of Agriculture, Is confident that the re-
suit of this years experiments with
sugar bee 5 will add 800 per cent. to
the beet sugar factories of the country.
Il know of people who stand ready
said he, in speaking IN this subject, Ito
establish twenty beet-sugar factories in
this country next year
That will be a pretty big increase,
will 1t not, Mr.. Secretary"
at will. We have, perhaps, a hall
dozen beet-sugar factories in the Unit
cd States now, all told, 50 that it will
be an increase of about 800 per cent.
which think will be very good for the
first year of the experiment
Your experiments of this year have
apparently been successful, them"
Yes. Beyond question. OF cours Sc
our analyses have not progressed suni-
ciently yet to show very definitely what
each section has done or is doing, but
there is 10 doubt in my mind of the
entire feasibility and p~racticability Of
the production of al! our sugar in this
country. The interest which the farm
ers Of the country haye developed in
bcct-raising, the results Of such analyses
as have already been made of the bcots
produced this year and what we know
As to the result, in former years and as
to this years crop inthe sections where
beet-growing ha, already been dcyel-
oped, show beyond question that it is
entirely practicable for the people of
this country to produce their own
sugar"
. THAT means the retention in the
United States of a great deal of money
which now goes abroad?
Yes. \ hundred millions is a good
dead Of money and especially when it
goes ont of ,he country. II we can dis

POSTAL BANKS IN FRANCE.
They are Very Popular in all Parts of the
Republic.

1t is contituted manly under the laws
passed in 1881, with a few important
changes in 1895. The system is made
TO extend over all Of France, Corsica,
Algeria, Tunis and Beyrout and in the
principally of Monaco. Its branches
are as numerous as there are Offices in
the postal and telegraph systems of
France. The system OF postal savings
banks has been found to be a great sue
cess. The government stands Is abso-
Lutte guarantor to the depositor against
loss, and the result Of the workings of
the Clisse Rationale d'Epargue is that
there are no savings bank failures,
Every postoilice under the management
of the French government is a savings
bank. At each p~ostoilice may be found
a receiyer-either to handle that part
Of the business especially on in connec-
ton with the regular postal work, ac-
cording TO the importance of the Office
and this receiver is directed and auth
orized by the department to accept the
moneys of depositorS and conduct the
operations as do the corresponding oili-
cials in ordinary savings institutions.
There are ia all about s ,O00,otices at
which savings may be deposited under
the protection of French government.
In the provincial districts all of the
savings business is transacted immedi-
ately in connection with the postal bus
mess, but in Paris and in the other
large cities of France the savings de-
partment is so important That separate
Headquarters are Il necessity.
The method is simple. Any person
may become Il deposltor. This admits
children of any age whatsoever, thus
assisting the all-deslred development OF
the savings idea at the earliest age. In
The matter of reimbursemcnts the only
restriction ONE in the requirement
that minors must be Is years old or
over in order to be permitted to with
draw without the authority Of their

Assistant Treasurer Jordan, in charge
of the subtreasury at New York, recent
ly called the attention of Secretary
Gage to the condition Of the New York
vaults. The recent count of the cash
showed that the vaults are overcrowded
and insecure, and temporary vaults
have had to be constructed to hold the
silver dollars, of which there are 50, 800, :
900 piled up.
The insecure condition of the vaults
has been known for some time and bears
upon the liability of their breaking and
crushing some Of the employees to
death rather than any danger from
the predatory visits of thieves and
burglars. The iron bars of the silver
vaults have been forced out of plumb
by the immense weight of the silver
dollars packed in sacks which they con-

Topples Over Dead.

Topples Over Dead.
Harry Flynn, 10 years old, was
drowned in Lake Michigan recently in
full view of half a thousand people who
thronged the shore at Lincoln park,
Chicago. The spectacle of the frantic
efforts of Matthew Roche, the boy 8
uncle, trying to save him, was given
additional sensation when Albert Mat
tarl, one of the spectators, fell dead,
probably from the effects Of the excite
ment.
Flynn lived in West Lake street and
with his uncle, who resides in Halsted
street, had gone rowing OH the lake.
When their little boat was mile out
OH the water, just of Mepominee street,
they tried to exchange places and were
capsized. Roche managed to keep his
head above water and gripped the stern
of the overturned boat. Twice he pulled
his nephew ont Of the water and pushed
his body ON top Of the boat, but each
time the little fellows struggles land
ed him back among the waves, until he
disappeared. The tug Leslie put out
and rescued Roche.
Albert Mattarl, aged 20, 1915 North
Albany avenue, was one of those at
tracted to the waters edge. He was
standing at the foot of Garfield avenue,
and when the excitement was at its
height he pitched forward OH the sand
dead. Heart disease is ascribed as the
direct cause of his death. Chicago
