Last week Tuesday the two houses OF
the Iowa legislature met In joint session
to hear a presentation Of facts In favor
of establishing the sugar beet industry
In the state. This is very unusual
concession to private enterprise, but
the promise to the state as whole
seems 90 great that it was felt TO war;

urged that the state guarantee the
bonds for plant at Ames to be part
OF the agricultural college equipment,
90 that its graduates might become
practical experts in the business of
making sugar. He would haye this
plant leased to a company so that the
state would take none of the financial
risks of its management. The state
should be organized into districts
with plants at central points. The rail-

ORANGES WITH HORNS.

Some Strange Varieties of the Fruit
Grown by the Chinese.
The Chinese are very fond of mon
strous forms of fruit and flowers, and
any departure from the normal form is
usually cherished and highly valued.
In their gardens they have numerous
forms of monstrous oranges-some
will produce fruit with points like
firgers. and are known as the Hand
Orange. Another form, says Meehan's
Monthly, has long horn projecting
from the apex, and they are known as
the Horn Orange. Another variety,
which botanists have known by the
name of Citrus aurantium distortum,
bears a fruit in the resemblance of a
cluster of sea shells. To one ignorant
of the laws of vegetable morphology,
these spells of wandering from the
normal type are very mysterious, but
when it is understood that all parts of
the orange, as we'll as other fruits, are
made I'D of what would have been
leaves or branches changed so as to
constitute the various parts of the
seed and seed vessels, and that a very
little difference in the degree of life
energy will change them into various
different parts that come to make up
the fruit, the mystery in great meas
ure is solved There are few branches
of botany which give the lover of fruits
and flowers so much pleasure as the
study of morphology.
