study he has given cane culture, sugars
and other matters pertaining to agricul-

DR. Wiley told his audience that the
beet sugar had been with us about
hundred and fifty years. In those days
sugar was a luxury. he said. During
the time of the Napoleonfc wars the
source of sugar was cut off. and it was
then the people had resort to the maple

THE ORIGIN OF COFFEE.
why the Berry DeAes Prod ucsion In
the United states.

| AS TO the history OF coffee, the legend
runs that Ii was first found growing
wild in Arabia. IIadji Omar, a deryish,
discovered IL In 1875, GIT years ago. He
was dying of hunger In the wilderness,
when, finding some small round ber-
ries, he tried To eat them, but they were
bitter. He tried roasting them, and
these he finally STEPPED in some water
held in the hollow of his hand and
found the decoction as refreshing as If
he had partaken Of solid food. He hur-
ried back to Mocha, from which he had
been banished. and, inviting the wise
men TO partake of his discovery, they
were so well pleased with ii that they
made him saint.
The story is told that coffee was in.

The sea voyage was stormy one. the
vessel was driven out OF her course, and
drinking water became so scarce that
II was distributed In rations. De Clieux,
with an affection for his coffee plant,
divided his portion Of water with il and
succeeded in bringing ii TO Martinique,
although weak. not in hopeless condi-
ton. There he planted Ii In his garden,
protected it with fence OF thorns and
watched ii daily until the end OF the
year when he gathered two pounds OF
coffee, which he distributed among the
inhabitants Of the island to be planted
by them. From Martinique coffee trees

The most successful climate for produc-
ton Is that found at an altitude OF
about 1000 feet Anything much above
this is In danger of frost, which Is fatal
to the tree. and when coffee is grown
much below this it requires artificial
shade, which materially Increases the
cost Of production and does not produce

this particular requirement that coffee
