involves different methods from those
pursued with ordinary farm crops,
and in order that a Factory
may be successfully started in
any neighborhood the farmers OF
that vicinity should have had
some previous experience in the cul-
ture of this crop. Since the sugar beet
lis very valuable stock food and is
cultivated by many farmers for this
purpose alone, the experience neces-
sary to its successful culture may be
obtained without loss, though no sugar
factory should ever be located in the
neighborhood; and in view Of the
probable development Of the beet
sugar industry in northern Ohio the
Experiment station recommends to the
farmers of that region that they begin
immediately to get the practical ex-
perience necessary to the successful
management Of this crop. Sugar
beets and mangolds have been grown
for number of years by the Ohio Ex-
pertinent station for stock food and the
experience thus gained is summarized
below. This crop may be successfully
grown on any soil we'll adapted to po-
tatoes or corn, the ideal soil being a
rich loan, somewhat sandy and well
drained. The two extremes of heavy
clays and light muck lands should be
avoided, and drainage, natural Or ar
tif1cial, is essential. The ideal site
Tor beet crop is clean clover sod.
1t should be plowed not less than eight
inches deep, as early in the spring as
possible and most thoroughly pulver-
lied. II a garden seed drill is at hand
the seed may be sown with that, set
ting the drill so as to drop the seeds
two or three inches apart. If no
drill is to be had, mark out the ground
with sled marker, making the fur
rows one inch to an inch and half
deep, and two feet to thirty inches
apart and drop the seeds by hand, COW
ering about one inch and packing the
earth over the seeds. The planting
may be done at any time from the mid
die Of April to the first of June, prefer
ably not later than the middle of May.
When the plants reach a height Of
about four inches they should be
thinned so as to stand about six inches
apart. Large beets are not desirable
for sugar making, as they contain a
smaller percentage of sugar than the
medium sized ones, and for the same
reason medium beets are more valu-
able for stock food. After thinning,
the weeds must be kept down and the
surface kept. loose. To accomplish
this at least cost, some harrow or
weeder should be used at least once
a week from the date of planting un-
til the tops shade the ground, going
over the crop at least once before the
plants appear above the surface. If
this is neglected the hoeing required
may easily double the cost of the
crop, r. III

Clouds Over Fires.

During large fire in Charlestown
last December Mr.. Ward, of Harvard
University, found an uncommonly good
opportunity to observe the formation
of clouds in the atmosphere above the
fire. Whenever there was an especially
active ascent Of the smoke a large
cunulus cloud formed over it. This
recalls other observations of such
clouds becoming dense enough to pros
duce a shower of rain.

wheels are so high that they pass up
through the floor over foot, and the
seats are arranged inside the car so
as to be located between them. Each
double truck of four wheels carries two
motors, thus providing every car with
four hundred horse power.
The train is given no startling slack
or lost motion between the cars, but
is coupled rightly together from end to
end; this is made possible in that
every axle has it's own supply of driv-
ing power.
The danger Of the narrow tread is
nearly obviated by the position which
the powerful and heavy motors occupy,
hanging as they do low down on the
axles, and bringing the center of grav-
ity close to the rails. This position
gives great stability to the moving
train, but should it swing from side
to side more than an inch or two, large
flat springs, supplied with automatic
self-oilers, come in contact with the

oscillations. The place of contact, I'M

TIE COST OF EMBROIDERED

The interest most people take in the
ways Of life of the very wealthy may
be idle and vulgar but if it is it is
none the less quite universal. It is idle

and il is not an evidence of snobbery
by any means.

suit has been brought against him by
a needle woman, who. in her COM
plant, alleges that Mrs. Brice ordered
monograms and other embroidery
worked on fine table linen, but when
a bill was rendered for the work done
payment was refused. The complaint
sets forth what the work was and the
price charged, and it is interesting as
showing what such work costs and
what some of the ordinary expenses
of a fashionable establishment are:
Among the items in the bill rem
dered are the following:

Mrs. Brice objected to paying the bill
on the ground that it was excessive.
It will strike the ordinary citizen that
the lady's objection is a valid one.

That is really a very remarkable
statement to come from a United States
senator. a war with the United States
would give Spain the opportunity TO
get rid Of Cuba without sacrifice OF
her honor. according to the Spanish
way of looking at it, Was ever more
arrant nonsense uttered? 1t shows
that the. senator does not know the
Spanish character at all. Spain is
decadent nation. it is true, but she has
never been a cowardly nation though
she has been cruel.
Senator Morgan appears to be i'm
bued with the same ideas towards
Spain, so far as fighting is concerned,
that the south held concerning the
north before the war. The southern
leaders did not believe the northern
people would fight. Personal expert
ence convinced Senator Morgan of the
error of that idea. War with Spain
would as surely convince him of the
error he makes regarding that coun-
try.
The senator talks like anything but
a statesman and what he says about
the cost of a war with Spain and how
she would seize a war as an opportun-
ity to give up Cuba shows how little

LIGHT PUNISHMENT FOR GRAVE
CRIMES.

Some time ago The Herald had oc-
casion to comment upon the fact that
crimes against the chastity of women
in this state were visited with light
punishment Since Their several of our
country contemporaries have drawn
attention to the same thing. The light
sentences imposed in these cases make
it painfully evident that those who i'm
nose. them regard the crimes lightly
Those who regard such crimes lightly
VIII not be apt TO hold family ties very
sacred, and when they are not held
sacred the very foundation of society
is being Slapped.
Perhaps the most glaring case of the
kind here commented upon that has
occurred lately is that where a judge
sentenced a married man, found guilty
of running a young girl, to one years
Imprisonment and sentenced a man
found guilty of stealing a calf to three
years Imprisonment. The contrast in
the enormity Of the two crimes is so
great and SO great the disparity be-
tween the two sentences that it makes
of justice a byword and a hiss. Had
the relatives OF the girl who was ruined
killed her betrayer no jury in the state
would have convicted them. Yet he
only gets a year, which is reduced to
ten months if he complies with the
rules Of the penitentiary. The poor
devil who stole a calf gets three years.
The people of Utah have not come to
place the same value upon calves as
upon female virtue.
It is high time there was a change
in imposing sentences on those who sin
against women. Only the crime of
murder IS greater than that of running
a young girl. Let the heaviest SEN
tence possible be given those who sin
against women instead of the Iightest,
as has become the practices of some of
our courts
