"Si Perkins" the celebrated rural
drama, is billed 70 appear at the Alma
house on next Thursday evening
Judging from the fattering notices
which the company has received from
the press in the cities which Isl has
visited, the prospect for fun on the
above date is good. Like all plays of
the "Rube" order, "Si Perkins pos
sesses a large budget of good, whole
some fun; the Yankee wit Is 30 woven
into the dramatic lines that the auditor
is one minute laughing with honest
hearted "Si, " and the next his ey-s are
brimming over with sympathetic tears.
No class of dramatic productions appeal
so strongly to the heart as those of the
rural order Every American is fami
liar with the Yankee nature. Shrewd,
witty and honest, he possesses a charm
Of personality which is particularly at
traotive; ahd. when upon the mimic
stage we can see his prototype, tis litt'e e
wonder that such pieces as "Si Perkins
receive a liberal patronage from Ameri-
can play goers. The present company
have for some seven seasons presented
the play, and it goes without saying a
perfect portrayal will be witnessed. Re-

Speaking about the probable future of
the industry the report says: Con
sumption of sugar in the United States
during 1902, calculated from figures for
1901, will be approximately 2,50O,OOO
tons and the production (both cane and
beet will reach nearly 100000 tons.
This leaves 100000 tons to be brought
from outside OF this amount Porto
Rico should supply 100000 tons, and
Hawaii 300, 600, n total OF 400, 600.
Deducting this from the ? 900, 600 tons
il leaves 10000 to be brought from
foreign sources paying duty, While the
above are only estimates, they are be-
lieved TO be substantially correct.
1T is the ambition Of those encourag-
ing the sugar industry to establish fac
tories enough at least 20 supplant for
eign supply. Making allowance for fail.
ure OF factories 10 reach full capacity
under ideal conditions it will require
500 factories having daily capacity of
800 tons of beets to produce this sugar.
There will doubtless be an increase in
the production of cane sugar in the
south which should be taken into ac-
count. But for convenience of calcula-
ton il is here assumed the increase will
be in beet sugar production only To
equip and build these factories it will
require an investment Of S250,000, 900.
This vast amount of money must be ex-
pended in this country for building ma
terials and machinery and in the en-
ployment OF labor necessary to construct
and equip the factories. The states Of
New York, Ohio, Illinois, Wisconsin,
Iowa and Minnesota compare very close
ly in natural conditions and resources Of
the state of Michigan Some of them
have natural advantages that Michigan
has not. In these states the sugar in.
dustry has not been taken up and de.
veloped as rapidly as in Michigan, but
evidently some if not all of them will
be equally important factories in the
production of beet sugar.

One of the simplest, cheapest and
best sterilizers is sunshine, and it is
important to allow as much sun in a
sick room as possible. The same rule
is applicable to the rooms of healthy
people. The good effects of "sun
bathing" in the treatment of conva-
lescents is ample proof of the utility
of the rays of the sun for therapeutic
purposes.

a large part: all tha; we can determine is
whether we viii play that large part well
or III.
Owing to our position. we do not need
large regular army Our army is small. hut
the individual units composing IL we believe
to be not inferior TO the best Of those Of
any foreign nation. And 1t is our purpose.
beginning with the present year. to institute
n series OF maneuyers which shall offer some
opportunity for training our officers TO han

But as regards the navy there is no chance

which to make a sOldier-a man who al
ready possesses the Ashting edge and needs
only to have IL developed and who really
learns how to march, to shoot and 10 take
care OF himself In the open. But no man
can IN n short time learn such highly spe-
cialiZed work rs thar aboard our great mod
ern warships. One Of these ships cannot be
built under three years and the officers and
enlisted men aboard her would be absol utely
helpless to make use of the formidable en-
gines of destruction ready TO their hands
unless they had enjoyed periods of training
ranging In accordance to the station Of the
man from dozen months to twice as many
years. No powerful fighting vessel and still
less effective lighting crew can be i'm
provised after the outbreak of n war.
Therefore any war In which we could pos
slbly be engaged-and | earnestly hope and
believe that there Is not the slightest chance
of our being engaged In such war-wou.d
probably be determined mainly by the nav=,
and what the navy could do would depeUi
absolutely upon the condition in which IL
was at the outbreak of the war. The fight
ing units would be the war craft alresdy In
existence and the crews which had already
been carefully trained.
