Beet Sugar and Cane Sugar,

Dr. Wiley, who is one of the most
earnest advocates of sugar beet cul-
ture in the United States, said at a
farmers meeting in Ontario that the
sugar cane growers in the tropics had
decided advantage over the sugar
beet growers of the Northern States in
the cost Of production Of sugar. If the
labor of the South was as effective as
that Of the North. and as much enter
PRISE was shown in developing the
fields for cane and in other branches
of the industry as must be shown on
Northern farms in beet growing, the
canea crop would win in the race every
time. We believe this to be true, and
therefore we are unable to understand
why he and others so earnestly urge
the growing of sugar beets here. 1t
cannot be that the best crop has proven
q profitable one to those who have been
engaged in it. Few of the crops that
we have seen reported have shown a
yield of over $50 worth to the acre, and
the majority fall below $40, while the
manure and labor required is about
half as great as that required to grow
500 bushels of potatoes. and either of
these is more certain crop on good
land we'll cared for than are the sugar

. A Brilliant Advocate,

The late Sir Frank Lockwood, one
of the most brilliant advocates of the
English bar, was famed alike for his
witticisms and his professional acute
ness. An instance Of his ready wit
which the Manchester Gardian gives,
came to hand during one of his autumn
al visits to Scotland.
It Is custom with Scottish terrific
rial magnates to be known by the
names of their estates. Thus Mr.. and
Mrs. Cameron, of Lochiel, the imme-
diate predecessors of Mr.. and Mrs.
Lockwood at a social function, were
announced as Lochiel and Mrs Cam
eron.
The willy Yorkshireman promptly
gave in his own name and his wife's,
as 26 Lennox Garden and Mrs. Lock
wood.
Touching remark as to the extraor-
dinary dullness of certain men who
have occupied the judicial bench, Sir
Frank Lockwood related in the follow
ing words an instance within his own
experience:
A man had stolen a spade, and was
tried before a stupid but well-meaning
and thoroughly conscientious magis-
trate. He carefully looked up 'Archi-
bald's Criminal Law" to find prece-
dent on which he could convict and
punish the man.
''I can't find anything under the word
'spade,'" said he, although l see that
a man was convicted and severely pun
ished for stealing a shovel" Then
looking at the culprit severely over his
spectacles, he added, You have had a
very narrow escape, but you may go
now,''
