Some of the Northwestern papers
eare giving the experience OF farmers
in the matter Of the beet sugar indus
try in Michigan, Illinois and other
States, and the returns they indicate
are certainly a great temptation to
engage in sugar beet culture. Thus
ct Glencoe, Mimi, two large farms
planted in sugar beets yielded fifteen
tons per acre, worth 81 so per ton,
or 367 50 per acre. The cost Of cul-
tivation is much heavier than that Of
wheat S27 75per acre-butit leaves
! profit Of $50 Is per acre, which, it
- almost needless to say, is extraor-
binary for Minnesota. Neighboring
land planted in wheat, and which
yielded the very large crop Of twenty
Eve bushels per acre, brought a profit
Of only So 81, or less than one-fifth
what the beets brought.

WHERE INDUSTRIES WILL
GO.


The migration Of industries is an
interesting phenomenon that deserves
study, says the Baltimore Sub. The
movement is toward the raw material
or source of power. This may be
slow while demand exceeds supply
and prices are high, but close compe-
tition ever necessitates economies in
production, and there is no economy
like getting your raw material cheap
getting it where it is produced
In England the iron industry migrat-
ed coalwards. In the United States
it migrates towards the Connellsville
coke region, or toward the Alabama
districts, where coke, ore and lime
stone lie close together. So the wood
working industries get closer to their
source of supply in the Northwest
and cotton.spinning tends to coming
South. Steam transportation made
possible industrial locations that
would have been impractical under
the old system of water transporta-
ton. Electricity will, it is thought,
cause a new shifting of industries
toward mountain regions where
abundant water powers will operate
electric power-producing plants
Lord Kelvin is of opinion, according
to the Age OF Steel, that 'sthe high
lands of Scotland may become indus
trially more important to Great Brit
ain than the Midland. Switzerland,
Norway, Sweden, the Austrian Tyrols
and Transatlantic may become the
industrial centres of Europe. In
India, the Himalayas feed the Ganges,
the Indus and the Oxus, and these all
make giant leaps down the mountain
sides, and the Falls of Zambesi in
Africa may in few decades be utiliz-
cd in the industrial development OF
that empire of the future"

A WoNDERFuL REcoRD.-The re-
ceipts Of cotton at Houston, Texas,
since the FIRST Of September, 1898,
passed the point of 100000 bales
on the 18th instant. This is won
derful record, says the Baltimore
Sun, and places Houston ahead Of
either Galveston or New Orleans as
. cotton receiving and distributing
point. Ten years ago the receipts
ofcotton ct Houston did not exceed
ahaH ! million bales a year. Since
then it has become one of the great
est railway centres Of the country, at
least fifteen railroads centering there
and reaching most Of the rich cotton
producing territory west OF the Mis-
sissippi. Buffalo bayou, leading from
Houston to Galveston bay, is now
being deepened by the government,
b order to enable vessels of large
oapaaity to land at Houston. These
enormous receipts also indicate the
greatly increased production OF cot

An ANCIENT BELIEF. ancients
believed that rheumatism was the
work of ademon within q man.
Any one who has had an attack Of
sciatica or infammatory rheumatism
will agree that the infection is demon
lac enough to warrant the belief. It
has never been claimed that Chamber
lain's Pain Balm would cast out
demons, but it will cure rheumatism,
and hundreds bear testimony to the
truth of this statement. One appli-
cation relieves the pain, and this qnick
relief which it affords Is alone worth
many times ito cost. Eos sale BY Dr..

This is to notify the public that
our cattle are branded F on right
side. We have lost a few and will
pay suitable reward for their return
to our plantation.
