DID WHAT THEY cou1n.

1t was a little thrifty farming COM
munity in western state, and the good
wives and mothers of these farm homes,
partly for the social pleasure entailed,
but more out of the goodness of their
hearts, some years ago organized a So
cial benevolent society, meeting twice
a month at different homes-light re-
-freshments, ten cent contribution for
the common cause and much pleasant
interchange of chat over new babies,
fashions, domestic troubles and the
like. During period of ten years these
good women have given no, less than
$7O0 to various religious and benevo-
lent enterprises, some of the money
going to feed the starving in faroff In
dia, much for relief of the poor at
home, some to help Sunday schools.
There are plenty of women of whom
it may be truthfully said, "she hath
done what she could" which is far
more than can be said of most men.

WHAT Ais THESE HENS,


A friend wants to know why his hens
won't lay. He says that he has thirty
Plymouth Rock pullets eight months
old. Says he treats them like queens;
they have warm house, plenty of room,
get an approved egg producing ration,
with warm water to drink. with oyster
shells and bone meal as side dishes, and
still they won't lay him a single egg.
This is hard proposition. There is
only one thing more that we think of
that he can give them, and that is time.
but as he. is in hurry for fresh eggs,
now that they are worth 80 cents a
dozen, this won't help him. The hen
being of the female persuasion there is
a good deal Of the s'when she will she
will and when she won't she won't"
business about her. We will, however,
venture this suggestion-if our friend
had thirty Light Brahma hens and
cared for them as he says he does
he would be getting at least dozen or
more eggs a day. Our own experience
has been that as winter layers for the
north country no breed quite equals
the Light Brahmas, but we always pity
the man who has to have them around
all summer wanting to sit. Again, it is
just barely possible that our friend
does not make his hens work hard
enough to secure their rations, for ex-
ercise and plenty of it is most essen
tial fact in egg production.

John G. Hartman returned Tuesday
from his big sale OF blooded Poland
China brood sows, held last week at
Red Oak. Tue very heavy rain and
disagreeable weather prevented the
sale coming off on the day advertised,
SO it was postponed until Saturday.of
last week and although the attend
ance was not as large as it would have
been if the weather had been nice yet
the bidding was spirited and lively
and every SOW in the herd was sold at
remunerative prices, because the buy
err knew he was purchasing just the
kind of an animal it was represented
to be. Mr.. Hardman purchased fine
brood sow while there which arrived
Tuesday evening.

the death of one or two persons,
mother and child, happened at the
home of Mayor T. j. McGovern the
first of this week. They had one of
those large kitchen ranges with res
ervoir and pipes which can be used to
carry water to the bath tub or wher-
ever it might be needed, these with
the reservoir were filled with solid
ice. Not thinking of any evil results,
rousiDg fire was built in the
range and it being an uncommonly
cold morning the water closest to the
fire soon became converted into steam
while the ice in the pipes remained
in its frozen state. But one thing,
and that the natural one, resulted.
There was terrific explosion, one
piece of the range flew upward, going
through the plastering into the attic
overhead, another piece shattered
window into fragments, striking the
sash and nearly cutting it through; a
third piece went through a.door lead
ing into another room and striking
rung of rocker broke it in two.
But the miracle was with the little
child which sat at one side of the
range not receiving a scratch, the
force being confined to one side, end
and top of the range. Mr.. and Mrs.
McGovern naturally feel greatful that
no accident befel their little one or
mother. Tic gladly ordered an
other range which will no doubt
be examined carefully the next cold
snap to see that it is not loaded.

That section presents many attractive

A Good Place to Avoid.

In the northern Shan states, on the
border of Burma, there is tribe called
the Wild Was. These people propitiate
with human skulls the demons whom
they worship. Outside every village in
their country there are many posts, all
in one line, decked with human skulls.
A niche is cut in the back of each post,
with ledge on which the skull can
rest and grin through hole in front
of it, Every village has dozen and
some as many as hundred of these
head posts. Fresh skulls are in special
request at harvest time and are pur-
chased for large sums, those of distin-
guished visitors being particularly de-
sired.

She shut.

A story is told of Count Schouvaloff,
former Russian ambassador to Eng
land. He greatly admired Englishwo.
men and was heartily annoyed when
he offended any one of them. While
he was in London he learned English,
and, having heard one famous English
beauty say "Shut up!' to another, he
imagined it to be phrase of polite
agreement, such as "Say no more" In
this sense he himself addressed it to
an illustrious lady the next night at
dinner, to the lady's CONSERVATION, and
his own when later he discovered his
mistake.

SUGAR MADE FROM BETS.

Hundreds of visitors are daily shown
through the big beet sugar plant at
GAINESVILLE and the process OF sugar max
ing explained to interested spectators
The following is the account told by
The Gazette of recent visit of the
Growers association describing the
method OF converting the raw beets into
the finished product:
Piloted by Theodore Hapke, the party
admired for moment the mosaic work
that adorns the crest of the 100 foot
chimney and then passed on to examine
the four sheds, grooming with 10000
tons, from which ten tributary channels
of steaming water convey the roots into
main current which carries them to the
factory.
The visitors saw the beets carried
through the washing trough, thoroughly
rinsed by the great revolving arms, lifted
In the bucket elevator, weighed auto
matically and dumped half ton at a
time into the big hopper at the bottom
of which the revolving knives cut them
into tiny strips. Over to one side of the
washing department the chemists were
busy weighing specimens from the vari-
Gus consignments with and without the
dirt to get the percentage of waste, and
testing them to ascertain the proportion
of sugar.
After their encounter with the knives
the beets lose their identity as such and
the tiny strips are merged into a solid
mass which flows like stream of spag-
ETH down the chute and into the battery
of fourteen upright watts. There it is
stepped many times by hot water under
pressure and when the saturations are
completed the water, with it's accumu-
lated treasure, is carried off for the next
process, while the pulp is removed from
the bottom OF the watts, passed through
press, and carried to the drier.
The juice parting company with the
pulp, is now on its way to the measuring
tank where the quantity is recorded.
This little formality concluded, it enters
the carbonating tanks where it is intro
duced to heavy solution of water and
lime. Way up in the fifth story of the
building is laboratory where carbonic
acid gas is being manufactured. The
beet juice and the milk of lime have not
mingled long when they are treated to
an injection of this gas which causes the
lime speedily to dissolve partnership
with the juice, carving in the precipi-
tate the undesirable non -saccharine mat
ter The juice is now pumped to the
filter presses where it is forced through
canvas and relieved of the preciptate
After another carbonating and filtering
process, it is ready for the first stage of
evaporation.
Successfully it passes through the five
big boilers, growing thicker and thicker
in each stage. These boilers are pro-
vided with glass port holes" through
which may be seen the little seas of

syrup lashed into fury by the heat
Another Injection OF the purifying gas
and hlterlng process awaits the syrup
upon its issuance from the last boiler
and after that it is carried to one OF the
two immense receptacles on the third
hoor, where it is subjected to further
evaporatlng process. On this floor also
are the paper machines" where obstin-
ate salts which prevent certain molasse5
from crystallzing are removed.
FROM this last evaporating process the
syrup issues as mass of crystalized sug
ar and molasses. 1t is now drawn into
the centrifugal machines directly below,
where it ls treated to 5000 whirls min
ute. The substance is driven from the
bottom to the sides of these revolving
cups of brass and the molasses is forced
through the perforations, the crystals
remaining in a solid mass. While the
whirling process is going on the operator
is industriously welding large sprink-
ling can containing a solution of bluing
and water. When the centrifugal is
stopped the brown mass has been con
verified into one cleaning white. The
material is still damp and resembles the
so-called coffee sugar"
An immense revolving drum, ditfusiug
great heat, completes the drying process
and in the next metamorphosis the fine.
grained sugar is seen dropping from the
chutes into the sacks and barrels pre-
pared to receive it. The bags contain
100 pounds and over thousand of them
are being filled every day There can be
loaded into one car $500 OF these sacks
and three carloads are shipped every
twenty-fou hours.
The visitors were much interested in
the pulp product, which when it has
been subjected to terrific heat resem-
bles in appearance certain varieties of

now being built. The big retort where
