SUGAR BEETS.
A Remarkable Growth on the Farm OF
Vim. Mason In Kenockee.

A Remarkable Growth on the Farm OF
Vim. Mason In Kenockee.
The state experiment station has just
made an analysis of samples of sugar
beets grown by VIM. Mason on his
farm in Kenockee township. which
shows them to contain 26.96 per cent of
sugar. This is Il most remarkable
showing considering the fact that the
average is about l3 TO IA per cent. Mr..
Mason devoted one and an eighth
acres to sugar beets last year producing
nearly % tons to the acre. The SAM
piles analyzed lay in pit until short
time ago, and the state chemist thinks
possibly the beets lost in weight to
some extent between the time of dig
ging and the time of analysis. Mr..
Mason is considering the advisability
of replanting what he has left of his
crop for the purpose of getting the
seed.-Port Huron Times.

Fenture That Knowing Young
Mnn Did Not Understand Until Too
Late.
From the Detroit Free Press
She tripped lightly down the aisle, and
an usher gave her a seat in the first row.
To be sure, her hair looked as if peroxide
had lent a helping hand In giving it color,
but from under the huge hat appeared
pretty face. Now, a pretty face covers a
multitude of sins, and the chappie who was
seated directly behind her tried his best to
let her know he was there.
Her appalling hat was adorned with
plumes, and people behind her wondered If
she would take it off. Chappie was sure Of
it.
There's a girl who is up to date" said
he: ''she reads the papers, and I'll bet she
takes it off when the curtain goes up"
Il hope she does" replied the man next
to him. for If she leaves 1t on I'm afraid
shall not see much. and 1 am sure you
won't. because you are directly behind
her.
Don't worry" Chappie said consolingly.
The maiden heard part Of the CONVERSE
ton and smiled under the hat.
The orchestra came in and played the
overture. but she still kept the hat on.
The bell rang, the curtain rose, and she
sat there wholly unconcerned.
Chappie's expressions of admiration
changed to remarks Of disgust but the
damsel noticed him not.
The play was well under way and Chap
pie was about to utter a good, round pro-
test. when his revenge came in a different
way.
The two comedians came down to the
foot lights and sang a topical song. They
sang of various things Of interest and
gradually drifted around to the theater
hat. Right in the midst of the song they
stopped and looked down at the pretty
blonde in the first row. The audience be-
gan to litter and Chappie laughed aloud.
The damsel hesitated moment. then rails
ed her hands to her head, pulled out two
long hat pins and lifted off her hat
The house roared and Ckappie yelled
"Good"' at the top of his voice. The con-
edians finished their song and then the
pretty blonde got up and went out As
she passed Chappie she smiled at him. but
he had hardened his heart against her and
took no notice of her.
That's good thing" said young man
to Chappie as they strolled out
Whats a good thing?'
That big hat" exclaimed the young
man. 1T gees with the show"
Chappie smiled a sickly SMILE but kept
his peace.
