GOOD CROP TO RAISE.
and They Are Sure to Bring Good
Prices This Year.

Those who are in close touch with the
market are expecting white beans to
command high prices for a number of
years to come. Stocks OH hand are
very much depleted, owing to great
falling off in production during recent
years and an increased demand. For
example, the Michigan crop for 1896
was 3,049,135 bushels, that of 1897 was
1,765,175 bushels, that of 1898 954, O64
bushels and the 1899 crop was only 1872
900 bushels. In California and New
York, two states in which large areas
of beans are grown, less than one-half
of full crops were obtained last year,
while in Canada and Europe the crop is
light. With very light yields the world
over, the United States and English
governments have been buying very
heavily for the army and navy. 1t is
thus apparent that the supply must
be quite limited, and several good crops
must be secured before there is nor
NAL surplus.
In, view of these facts, it would seem
LIS though beans would be good crop
to plant this coming season if good
seed can be secured and one has suit
able soil.-Rural World.

difficult job, and the results are often
worth great deal during a single
winter even. The pump can be low

setting the elevated platform away
for use again the following winter.
Few realize what an immense amount
of animal heat (and therefore feed
and milky is wasted when COWS are
turned out to a watering place on a
cold day in winter. The animals come
in shivering, their backs rounded up
with the cold and every hair standing
on end. It takes an hour at least be-
fore they feel comfortable again. I'm
der such conditions the best results in
dairying cannot be secured. Where
water can be run into the barn in
the way suggested. it will, on stand
ing awhile, acquire the temperature
of the barn, being then much more
suitable for COWS to drink, while the
latter will also be saved the exposure
to cold winds.-N. Y. Tribune.

WORKOUT GRASS LAND.
TIE Rest way to Restore It to Fer
tility Il to Put In Some Other
Crop for Several Years.

It does not pay to keep fields IN
grass long after they have ceased to
be profitable. One has but to ride
through almost any part OF our coun-
try in June, even in the good years
for grass, to see some meadows that
utterly fail to produce the crops they
should. If the meadows could make
themselves understood they would tell
us that they have been run down by
constant cropping without putting
anything back, and have been also
further sinned against by being
trodden hard by horses. sheep and
cattle. With halfway proper care and
treatment from year to year such
lands would still be giving good re-
suits.
AS soon as a meadow begins to run
out it begins to get weedy. It is then
of little use to try to recover the
former conditions by manuring. It is
far easier to plow the ground and put
it into some crop that will require
working of the ground. In some To-
calities such meadows are turned over
and reseeded at once with grass seed,
but this requires good deal Of work
with the plows, cultivators and har-
rows. The soil that has not been
turned over for some years has
strong tendency to remain in Jumps
and clods, especially if the sod is still
quite thick. =, ,.,-,..
The most simple way to renew the
land is to put it into some crop other
than grass and keep it so for a num-
Der of years. If it can be put into
some crop that is to be heavily ma
nured so much the better for the sub
sequent grass crops. Rotation, how
ever, is not a necessity to the mead
ow. In Europe meadows are kept
permanently in grass and it is said
that the oldest ones are the best.
This result, however, is obtained by
systematic manuring, and the keep
| ing off of all animals. No attempt
| is made to make the meadow produce
both hay crop ana serve as a pas
| ture.-Farmers' Review.

Danger in Wire Fcnces.

In an article in the Journal of the
Royal Agricultural society on light
ming and its effect on trees, Mr.. Brodie
calls the attention of English farm
ers to point of great practical i'm
portance. In Britain and America the
increasing adoption of wire fences has
given rise to considerable damage to
live stock from lightning. He quotes
on this matter tho director of the
Iowa weather and crop service. "Un-
questionably, wire fences, as now con-
structed, serve as death-traps to live
stock, causing q vast amount of loss
every year. And it is also quite evil
dent that a considerable percentage
Of danger may be avoided by the use of
ground wires at frequent intervals in

What is the annual consumption of
incandescent lamps in this country?
A recent statement placed the num-
Der at 60,OOo,OOo, but this is obviously
much too high. The carefully prepared
estimate of the incandescent lamp
business of the United States for the
year 1899, which appeared in the New
Years number of the Western Elec-
trician, showed that the volume Of
business was $2,7OO,OO0. Assuming sn
average price as low as II cents o
lamp, the number produced. is less than
16,ooo,ooo. Probably 15,ooO,oOo is very
near the exact figures rer1 esenting the
total output of the factories. Similar

Qualitv Of seed Corn.

The yield of corn is dependent in no
small degree on the quality of the seed,
which should be selected before the
corn is cut, having regard to the size
and character of the stalk as well as to
the ripeness and type of the eur. When
the season is especially favorable for
thoroughly maturing the ears, enough
seed to last at least two years should
be gathered, completely dried out be-
fore frost and stored in warm, dry
place. A difference Of two per cent. in
the yield of dry matter on two adjacent
acres was noted in favor of the crop
grown from well-ripened seed over the
yield from seed grown in wet, cold
season.-Clinton D. Smith, in Farmers
Review.

BEET SUGAR INDUSTRY.
1t Has Shifted the Worlds Sugar
Producing Area from the Tropfcs
to the Temperate Zone,

Two-thirds of the worlds sugar is
now produced from beets. Prior to
1912 the worlds production of beet
sugar had reached million tons: in
the present crop year it is, according
to latest estimates, $50, GOO tons, while
the cane sugar crop, which in 1s71-72
was 1899, o0otons is in the present year
2,oO4,0O0 tons. Thus cane sugar pro-
duction has scarcely doubled during
the period under consideration, while
that from beets has more than quin-
!upled. Meantime the price has fallen
more than one-half, the average cost in
foreign countries OF all sugar imported
into the United States in the fiscal wear
OF 1872 being 5.37 cents per pound, and
in 1899 2.39 cents per pound. These
facts are interesting in view of the
consideration Of matters by congress-
relating to the sugar-producing islands
which have recently come into closer
relations with the United States.
The sugar-producing area of the
world has in less than half a century
been shifted from the tropics porth-
ward, and the farmer Of the temperate
zone has shown his ability not only to
compete with the low-priced labor of
the tropics, but in doing so to reduce by
one-haf the cost Of the article pro-
duced. Scientific American.

With these stipulations in the

the officials to escape in the future
by pleas of ignorance of the provi-
sions for the protection of foreign

has been not only in the ignorance

IN CHINA.

The allies are not unanimous in
the opinion that special protection
should be secured FOR the mission
aries. under the new guarantees to
be demanded of China. This will
be understood when it is recalled
that at least ole of the allied Pow
ers, Japan, is not Christian coun-
try, while another, Russia, has nc
missionaries, although Christianity
is the national religion
The United States, England and
other countries which send mission
aries to China will probably make a
strong demand for guarantees
stronger than those in the present
treaties, which failed to afford the
necessary protection during the
Boxer troubles. Additional guar
antees, 1t IS asserted, will be neces-
sassy if the missionaries are to con-
tinue their work in the interior.
The countries not represented by
missionaries may endeavor to- put
the question aside as unimportant.
OF course these countries will de-
mand guarantees strong enough to
protect their business interests,
and it might be argued that addi-
tiOnal guarantees for the mission
aries are needed to also protect for
eigners who are in business in the
interior. But foreigners have nc
business to go beyond treaty ports
and therefore special guarantees for
them would be a useless exaction
from China. Moreover the Minis
tiers of non-missionary countries
argue that as they are not interest,
| ed, the whole matter should be left
to future negotiations bv the indi,
vidua1 nations concerned.
The Chinese always excuse out.
RACES by saying that they are due
to the failure of local officials to per-
form their duties. When outrages
have occurred the Ministers have
demanded that the officials who'had
failed to protect foreigners should
be punished by the Chinese govern
ment. Sometimes the officials were
removed from Office, but many OF
them'were later appointed to better
places. One instance of this was
the case of Yu Asien, the notorio IS
anti-foreigner who was reported to
have committed suicide recently,
He had been Governor of Shauting
but was. removed because of com
plants made against him by the
Ministers for falling to protect for
eigners in that province. Later on
he was appointed Governor OF
|Shansi.
One plan which it has been sug-
gested would be effectual, is to put
definite provision in the peace
treaty for the protection of all for.
eigners in China aud the punish
ment ofs local officials responsible
for ontrages, STIMULATING the nature
of the punishments to be inflicted
and forbidding the reappointment
