OF the need of doing something each
year to beautify the grounds
The reports from county fairs made
to the department Of agriculture show
seventy-nine fairs held, as against
seventy-one the year before. The IL
nancial statements show q small in
crease in the aggregate receipts ana
premiums paid, also in balances on
hand and in amounts spent for per-
manent improvements. He urged that
more of the county fair officials attend
the annual state meetings.
The subject OF a central organfza-
ton for county farmers institutes was
discussed briefly in the report. Secre-
tary Simpson would at least have
meeting once u year where the princi-
pal institute workers could meet He
would not favor any plan for taking
from the local committees the power to
fix dates and select speakers; but he
would have an advisory committee to
district the state and to try to ar
range dates and speakers so there
would be no conflict. There s,lould also
be published ~ list OF the institute
workers and their subjects.
Secretary Simpson would also favor
plan for having the state farmers
institute. the improved stock breeders
association, the swine breeders asso-
citation, the horticultural society. and
other similar meetings all held each
year the same week in Des Moines, so
that the expense Of securing speakers
would be less for all.
The financial statement shows that
tho foir receipfs we're S6G 1896 and the
net profit $12,S62.92. The premiums
paid in various classes were: Speed

thirty shares held by her and the latter
for 1000 for ten shares of stock NOT
paid for. Mrs. Harker is the wife Of the
man who established the bank thirty
or more years ago.
The affairs OF the Storm Lake bank
were in a decidedly depressed. coiidl-
ton when it closed its doors Thus
far not sufficient amount has been
realized from the assets to justify the
payment Of any dividend to the credl-
tors 1t is expected the Judgments
against the Harkers, amounting to $4,-
900 will be collectible, but the judgment
against Mr.. Brown for $4,000 will
probably be worth nothing
IT doubt il we will lie able to get
enough in the Brown case to pay the
costs" said Receiver Wilson. Il am
unable to tell when any dividend Will
be declared or how much the creditors
will receive My remittances are all
made to the United States treasurer
and the comptroller declares the divi-
dends."

CLOSE SUGAR FACTORY
Beet Sugar Industry at Norfolk, Mob,
Proves Failure Factory Closed
Down ana Machinery Moved to Col

Norfolk, Neb. Dec. IA. ~ The sugar
beet industry and the manufacture Of
beet sugar In eastern Nebraska, after
a continuous test of thirteen years. has
proven fiat failure.
can Beet Sugar Company, which, hav-
ing operated its Norfolk plant for more
than q dozen years, is dismantling the
engines and wheels and chutes and
centrifugals Of the factory, loading the
machinery on freight cars and hauling
1t to Lamar Col, for q new factory,
to, be erected by the Oxnard Construc-
ton Company at that place. With the
close of the sugar campaign in this
city on Saturday night, the wheels and
belts became forever still SO far as
Norfolk is concerned, 300 men went
out of employment, and nine expert
scientists, who had been measuring up
the bolts and spokes began directing the
tearing down OF the plant.
Citizens Of Norfolk gave $150,OOO IN
cash toward the factory. Millions and
millions of pounds of sugar have been
turned out of the Norfolk plant, and
thousand and thousands OF tons OF the
richest saccharine bulbs that ever grew
have been raised in the soil of north
ern Nebraska. But Of late years those
tons have grown less in number and
to a lack of acreage the company at
tributes its failure.
Farmers say they can much more
easily raise other crops from their land
oats and rye and wheat and corn,
than beets. The beet bulb needs an inn
mense amount Of work from the NOM
ent it is placed in the 81 ound until 1t
is drawn forth for grinding. The far
..hers. after the novelty Ct 1t all wore
off. have returned to their first love,
and neglected the sugar coots.
Land which can easily raise other
crops will not become a sugar center.
Land which refuses to produce any
other crop will be dotted with factories
in the day to come. An6 the rich soil
of Nebraska, where corn Is king, is TOO
good for the tedious toll of the beet.
The building. empty save for the
bis boilers, has been donated to Nor
folk. which is now hanging it up, to-
pether with 240 acres of land, as
nrize for some other industry. AL
ready a distillery, a brewery and
glucose factory have sigrlified their IN
tention of accepting the offer.
Grand Island and Ames, Neb., still
have factories, but 1t is not at all I'M
probable that they, too, will soon fol-
low in the wake OF the Norfolk 'nsti-
tuition toward the west.

Driver Crowley Testifies.

New York, Dec 14.-When the trial
Of Nan Patterson was resumed today and.
before Justice Davis had opportunity
to announce decision on the alleged
conspiracy pollit, Assistant District
Attorney Band closed the incident by
withdrawing his, request that the grand
jrlry subpoena served on j. Morgan

said he was actuated in withdrawing
the request by the information which
satisfied him that admissability of the
subpoena was not free from doubt.
Justice Davis directed the jury to dis
regard all references made to the miss
ing witness.
John Crowley, the cab driver. who at
the previous trial testified that Young
slapped Miss Tatterson's face and sent
her home the night before he was
killed, retold the story Of his exper-
fences with the couple. He said that
Young, and the man who accompanied
him, were intoxicated when they hail
ed him and asked him to take Miss
Patterson home.
.The man slapped her in the face
and said If sf, did not get into the cab
and go home, he would knock her head
Off" said Crowley. He then pushed
her into the cab and I drove off while
