Brighter days are in store for
Ireland, and her inhabitants wi
soon forget all about Home Rnle
in their anxiety to food the Eng
lish market with Irish sugar. At
present. that useful commodity is
manufactured either from the
canes produced under the tropical
sonshine or from heetroot cult
waited in France aud Germany,
whose inhabitants with a self
sacrifice highly meritrrinus, pay
sevenp-nce and elghtpence a
pound for an article produced in
their countries, in order that per
fdlous Albion may enjoy it for
twopence. Ireland expects soon
to enter into competition with the
foreigner and to drive him on Of the
field. A scientist who has had a
large experience OF cane cultiva-
ton in Java, and bears a name
which, under a Dutch exterior,
shows indisputsble marks of
Hibernian extraction, has dis
covered a process by which excel
lent sugar in immense quantities
can be got from potatoes 1t does
not matter whether the tubers are
in first class condition or not,
they yield the sugar all the same.
Irish agriculturalists are, it is re-
ported from Donegal. awaiting
anxiously the details of the pro-
cpss, which may revclutionrze the
future of Ireland. Sweetness will
