Sugar beet Experiments.

Madison, Wis, Special.-The agri-
cultural experiment station at the uni
versity is just now busy with analysis
of sugar beets. Two samples have
been received from each of the forty
five substations in the state. and
samples will be received every ten
days now until the harvest. Several
large fields are grown on the univer-
sity farm here and the crops are eX-
cellent there as elsewhere. Prof w.
A. Henry, dean of the agricultural de-
partment, is enthusiastic over the
prospects, and says it is absolutely
demonstrated that sugar beets can be
successfully grown in Wisconsin. One
analysis made showed proportion of
saccharines of 10 Per cent. which IS as
high as any made in the country.
