PERHAPS no single agricultural prod
uct has shown such an increase and
such changes during the past half cen
fury as sugar. Sixty years ago ], 10000
tons we're sufficient to satisfy the world s
demand for this article; today it requires
100000 tons. The increase during the
period named has been about $50 per
cent, while the increase in the worlds
population has been only about so per
cent. What Ia more, this remarkable
increase in consumption has been mainly
confined to the more highly civilized ma
tions of the world. In 1850. for example
the consumption of sugar in this country
was only % pounds per capita of our
population; today il is IS pounds. Not
less remarkable than the foregoing fig
ures are those which relate to the source
from which sugar is made. Sixty years
ago only 5 per cent of the worlds sugar
product was made from sugar beets, and
95 per cent from sugar cane. Today
these conditions are entirely reversed.
Instead of the 5 per cent of 1910, beets
now produce 81 per cent Of the worlds
sugar, while cane supplies only IS per
cent now, instead Of the 95 per cent. it
once did In 1900 2,85O,OOO tons of cane
sugar were made, and 5,95O,OOO tons
from sugar beets.

In HIS report on crop prospects, Secre-
tary True of the State Board of Agricul-
ture says. copious and frequent showers
are needed in the southern part of the
state to prevent disastrous results to
crops like those Of last year. The fall of
snow and rain has only been sufficient
to moisten the surface. Winter grains
are almost universally reported as being
in good condition. Meadow and pasture
prospects are very generally poor, espec
tally clover meadows. Those parts of
the state that did not suffer from the
drouth last season have had heavier falls
of snow and rain and start out with an
advantage in crop prospects. Reports
from correspondents indicate that quite
a percentage of the wheat crops of last
year remains in the farmers hands.
There is also surplus of oats and hay
in many of the central and northern CEN
trail counties There is little corn to
spare. In the potato counties large
percentage of the crop is still held for
sale.

A BOOM in tobacco and sugar in the
Philippines is likely to be created by the
act of congress approved March last.
It provides that all articles the growth
and product of these islands shall be ad-
mitted into this country at reduction
of Is per cent in the regular rates of
duty. All revenue thus collected by the
United States shall go into separate
fund, to be used by the Philippine COM
mission "for the government and benefit
of said islands" The duty on raw sugar
from the Philippines has heretofore aver.
aged about 1872 per ton of 1000 pounds,
so this new law is a concession of about
So per ton TO the island planters. The
duty on leaf tobacco is IS cents per
pound, and on cigars $3.50 per 1000, so
that Philippine tobacco shipped into
this country will hereafter enjoy a bonus
of cents per pound, and its cigars Sl.12
per 1000. An immense increase in i'm
portations of sugar, tobacco and cigars
must follow in due course. What it's eff
feet will be upon these domestic indus
tries remains to be seen.

Supt Harvey has small faith in the
photograph as guide to judgment in
the selection of women teachers. He has
an old-fashioned notion that beauty
the swapping eye and peach blow cheek
ought not to figure on the balance
scale.
Beauty" said Mr.. Harvey, who is,
withal, gallant man, "is skin deep, but
it isn't brains"
"On their face the credentials might
appear to be equal, while in reality they
are not" he continued. at is no more
true that the prettiest woman makes the
best school teacher than it is that the
handsomest man makes the best lawyer
or doctor Frequently the plainest ap-
pearing teachers are the most inspiring
in the schoolroom and are able to get
the best work out of their pupils. Oh
course, ali teachers should be neat
and tidy in appearance. However, the
pretty school teacher should be any
thing but condemned or put to disad
vantage because of her good looks

THE tone of the stalwart press of the
state is quite unanimous that Governor
La Toilette must be eliminated from the
party or there will be neither peace nor
success. The stalwarts are like the
farmer who had ram on the farm much
given to butting. The beast upset the
old man, and good church member that
he was, he swore in lurid accents. His
wife reproved him and reminded him of
his profession. "Well, Sarah Jane" said
he, ''theres no such thing as enjoying
religion with that ram on the farm"
This is the way the stalwarts feel about
the governor Madison Democrat.

Invention of New Iifeboat

Two inventors who live in Stirling
Scotland, have invented a Hfeboat
which is intended to become auto
maticaIly inflated when it is immersed
in water A spring is employed
which is kept in state of tension or
compression by means of a strip or
roll of paper, the tensile strength of
which. as long as it is dry, is suff1-
cient to maintain the spring in a state
of compression, but which, when it
becomes wet by immersion in water
Immediately loses its strength to such
an extent that it is ruptured by the
energy stored in the spring The re-
lease of the spring causes the produc-
ton of a volume of gas from mate
rails sufficient in quantity to initiate

ABOUT ARTIFICIAL ICE.
The Principle Upon Which This Great
,COmmo dity Is Manu-
- factured.

The principle upon which the manu-
facture of ice is based is that a gas,
when compressed, gathers heat enor-
mously, and if robbed of this heat and
allowed to escape at future time, it
seeks to regain it's heat by withdraw
ing heat from it's surroundings. Am.
monia gas is generally preferred to
others, because it can be hquified
with comparatively little pressure.
On removing the water from common
ammonia by distillation, anhydrous
ammonia is obtained. This is COM
pressed by a combined steam pump
and compressor, and the resulting
liquefaction induces heat, which is
economical by circulating water about
the vessel or pipe containing the liqui-
fed ammonia. Thus the ammonia is
cooled and the heat largely trans
ferred to the water, which is then
pumped back to the boiler that sup
plies the steam pump. The liquid am
monia is then carried in a pipe to ex-
pansion coils that afford plenty of
room for it's evaporation, when it be-
gins to return to the gaseous form
and to draw heat from it's surround
ings-which gradually reduces the
temperature. Proper vessels of wa
ter are placed in contact with the ex-
pansion coils and in due time ice is
formed,
