graphs OF it have been taken by Mr..

seem to prove that Tenterfield is prob
ably more suited to growing sugar
beets than any other known part of the
world, the percentage of sugar being so
much higher, and the roots much larg-
er than obtains elsewhere. In Europe
two pounds and half is considered
the proper root to produce the largest
quantity of saccharine matter. At Ten
terfield six and a ralf and seven-pound
roots have yielded Is per cent of sugar,
while some two and a half pound roots
have given over 25 per cent. In Eu-
rope IA per cent and Is per cent roots
are considered very good

SICK MAN OF EUROPE.
How the Sultans Came to Be So
Called

Just forty-four years ago the En-
peror Nicholas l of Russia said to Sir
Hamilton Seymour, the British En-
bassador at ST. Petersburg: 1--WE have
sick man on our hands-a very sick
man and it would be unfortunate if
he should go off before some arrange
ments were made for the disposition
of his inheritance. Let us agree about
it before it is too late" These omin-
GUS words must ever be linked with the
history of the great question that
seems fast pressing for a solution.
The 'Sick an"-Turkey-is now pass
ing through a crisis which, in the opin-
ion of political observers having more
than the common sources of informa-
ton to draw on, can only end in the
disintegration and final breakup of his
power.-Illustrated American.

in beets aggregated $4,000 acres,
yielding about 100000 tons beets.
Germanys sugar production continues
to thrive, and the same may be said OF
France. In fact, under the stimulus of
increased bOunties in Germany and
France, the production Of beet sugar
advances by leaps and bounds, prices
having declined in consequence. AS an
outcome of the discussion on the SUI
gar bounties, an international confer
ence was announced to be held, at
which France, Germany, Austria, Bel
GUM and Russia were to be represent
ed, in order to study some means Of
putting an end to the present state of
things, which in these countries bur
dens consumers with the bounties paid
to the manufacturer and refner.
In Victoria the beet sugar industry
will soon be an accomplished fact, the
Maffra Company having accepted a
German engineering firms tender for
the supply of machinery capable of
treating $50 tons of roots per day. The
Beet Sugar Act, passed last session,
provided that for every fl of capital
paid up by a company f2 would be adj
vanced by the State, and as $4,000 has
been subscribed by the Maffra Com
pany, 1t becomes entitled to apply for
an advance of 100000. When 10000
is paid up 100000 of Government mon
