SUGAR SECT SEEDING.
An Accidental Autumn Development
of Great Possible Value.

OF Great fOHhiDle NuAuc.
The Michigan station reports an acci-
dental development in sugar beet grow
ing. 1t is of special interest because
it may lead to n new and improved
method OF procedure and therefore
prove Of great value to sugar beet
farmers. A test of it would be III
order this fall.
In the year 1900 few sugar beet
seed were grown at the station, with
a view to studying the question or
home production of seed. This expert
ment met with fair success, Il small
crop of seed being produced that year
and the same planted in the spring OF
1901. The beets from this planting are
to be replanted the coming season.
The results thus far demonstrate the
possibility of growing sugar beet seed
in that locality. The development OF
this branch of the industry will require
wears of careful work, but 1t suggests
a line of experiment that calls for fur
ther and particular attention.
From the plants that produced seed
In the fall Of 1900 n few seeds were
scattered on the ground. They lived
through the winter and came on the
following spring. giving substantial
growth of beets of good size, which
harvested Sept. Z. 0 and 1p gave av-
erage yields of 1O.77 per cent sugar.
The possibility of seeding to sugar
beets in the fsu is being tested by fur-
ther experiment from seedlings made
In October. 1901.
The result Of this accidental expert
ment in fall seeding points to new
possibility in the management OF the
sugar beet crop. Beets of large size
and with a satisfactory percentage OF
sugar were produced Gould this
method Of planting be practiced, IT
would be a great help in distributing
the work Of trimming the beets and
caring for the crop.

Stand BY The FARM.

Every little while we hear of some
, farmer who has sold the old place and
moved away TO town TO spend the rest of
his days. Ii always gives us a sad feel
ing TO learn of these departures. Sad
not only because we miss the old familiar
faces. but more so for the reason that we
do not believe these friends are going to
lind the happiness they anticipate. 1t
means great deal for man past the
meridian of life to tear up the ties which
have bound him TO the farm all his life
long and move away TO the city. We
have known many instances where men
have done this and have soon gone TO
their long homes. The change from the
free, active life out of doors TO the
sedentary life of the city quickly under
mined their health, and they soon
passed away.
But even il they do live good many
years, il is not likely that they ever will
enjoy themselves more than they did on
the farm. OF all the pitiable sights we
know of the most so is the old farmer
vibrating back and forth between the
house and the store, the loating place
about town, restless, uneasy and hardly
knowing what To do with himself from
morning till night. One day is just like
another. Talk about the monotony of
farm life The monotony of city life as
il presents itself to the farmer who has
sold out and gone there TO live is abso-
lutely beyond description.
And then, what a difference between
the fresh, pure air and food of the
country and that of the city, There
used q be milk sweet and fresh from
the COW, vegetables right from the
ground. fruit, berries and eggs just
brought in. Now everything is stale and
hardly endurable 10 the man who knows
what fresh farm produce is. What
wonder il In little while he begins To
long for the old home life But il is too
late now. The little nest egg he and his
wife have saved up by the work on the
farm some way has disappeared by piece
meal until now he could not buy back
the farm if he wanted TO ever SO bad.
Taxes, water rents, fuel and repairs keep
up a constant gnawing at the little store.
Perhaps there may be sickness, which
eats a big hole into the Surplus. The
old man and his wife see now that they
will do well if they save enough out OF
the farm to give themselves decent
burial when their time comes.
Cling to the old home farm. If
strength fails and you see that you can
no longer keep things up as in the days
of manhOOd's prime, hire some one to do
the heavy work. let out some of the
plough land. but keep your hand on the
helm. Be master of your own farm. 1t
will be home TO you as long as you will
want home in this world. Perhaps you
may have some good son or daughter
who could come on the farm and do the
hard work. If so, you are happy indeed;
but keep the deed in your own name
Perhaps it will be better to build
separate house for them. Both of you
may be the happier for that. Anyway,
keep your hold on things all the way
through And the old place will shelter
and bless you till the end.-E. l.. Vim
cent, in Tribune Farmer.
