| while this shortage is very large,
it must not be lost sight of that the
factories which finish their campaign
first have most likely to deal with the
poorest beet crops. and that the other
factories will no doubt show somewhat
better results later on.
GAS the first sugars from the next
crop of beets, which viii be sown dur
ing April next cannot be placed on the
market before the end of October, 1905,
| it is to be expected that stocks of
sugar will run very low until that
time, even when figuring on an in
crease of 100000 tons in the production
of cane sugar. OF course a good deal
will depend on the worlds consump-
ton of sugar during the next nine
months. It is estimated that the con-
ending September 1. 1904, includes a
bout 100000 tons, which were required
to make up the Invisible supply totally
exhausted just previous to the taking
effect of the Brussels Convention, so
that the consumption for the following
twelve months should be smaller by
that amount; it is however very likely
that the normal regular increase of
consumption will more than make
good such reduction.
''Now another important question is
the probability Of increased beet SOW
ings for next crop: nothing definite can
be stated in regard to this before the
end of April, but there is no doubt that
a larger area Of land will be put into
beets next spring than during the pre-
vious season. this being matter of
necessity to insure a sufficient supply
OF sugar for the worlds consumption.
In this connection it is well to bear in
mind that the European farmers al
ways produce a variety Of crops. prin-
cipany grain. beets. potatoes, and hay,
that they change the various crops
constantly in rotation for the benefit
of the soil, and that grain, potatoes
and hay, are necessary products which
cannot be suddenly neglected; besides

better condition for good many years
and feel confident that the Hawai-
ian sugar planters will not only enjoy
the full benefit of the present high
price of sugar during the crop now to
come off, but will also realize very
fair returns for several years to come.
'"The cause of the rise in the price
of our principal staple article has been
the unexpected large increase in con-
sumption in those European countries
which have become parties to the
Brussels Convention and the extended
drought which occurred last summer
in Germany, France, Austria and Rus
STA, and prevented the beets from at
tanning their normal growth; the
shortage in the beet crop is now es-
timated to be at least 100000 tons,
or about Is per cent of the preceding
crop: this is confirmed by the reports
of IS German beet factories, which had
already finished the campaign some
three weeks ago.
@The following table shows the
quantity of beets in cent weights of
so kilos each, manufactured by these
factories during the season of 1903 and
1904 and the respective shortage for

TRIAL OF RICE IN LONOkE.
Government Thinks the Experiment
Will Succeed.

Rice fields of Arkansas, within 112
| miles of Memphis, and along the line
| OF the Choctaw railroad. This is the
present prospect, according to the re-
port OF government expert inter
viewed last night. says Tuesdays
Memphis Commercial Appeal.
Among the guests of Gavoso hotel
last night was E. c. TAFT, of Cheyenne,
Wyo., an unassuming gentleman in the
employ of Uncle Sam. passing through
this city on his way to Clarksdale,
Miss. where he goes to hold a confer
ence with the official of the Mississip-
pi experiment station, with regard to
the growing of alfalfa in that section
by means of irrigation. Mr.. TAFT has
been largely connected with the work
of the government in the irrigation of
western lands. and has some very in
teresting stories to tell of the efforts
made along this line and their re-
suits.
He has just come from the vicinity
of Lonoke, Arkansas, where he has
been overseeing the government ex-
pertinent in raising rice upon the prai-
rie lands of that section. This land,
which lies in two large prairies-
Grand Prairie and Prairie Tongue
has proven comparatively worthless
for the production of cotton and corn.
None of the cereals thrive upon it, and
probably more than half of it has
never had plow thrust into it, be-
cause of the discouraging results fol
lowing the attempts that have been
made to grow such crops upon it as
has been under cultivation.
The soil, however, is very like that
of the rice districts of Louisiana and
elsewhere, and the government ex-
perts conceived the idea that by prop
er irrigation it might be made to pro.
duce practically unlimited quantities
of excellent rice. This presumption
has been given color by sporadic at
tempts of certain farmers of the dis
trict who have made attempts-rath-
er Intellectual, it must be confessed
to raise rice crops from this soil.
Their partial failure, however, is ex-
planned by the government experts
upon the ground Of insufficient irriga-
tion. The apparatus with which they
worked was both crude and insuffic-
lent, and the crops suffered in conse-
quence.
The we'll which has been sunk for
irrigation purposes under the super
vision of Mr.. TAFT penetrated to a
depth of 11S feet and struck an mex
supply of clear water. A
proper pumping plant has been in
stalled. The cost of we'll and plant
is $1,So0. This we'll and plant will ir-
rigate properly about fifty acres. The
cost of operating the plant is yet to
be learned. but will not be very great
be learned, but will not be very great
ed. as no experiment has been made
under conditions nearly so favorable
to its growth as those which will OBJ
tain under this experiment by the
United States government
I'VE will continue the experiment
for five years. said Mr.. TAFT, in an.
swer to a question. and at that time
the question. What can be done with
rice in the Lonoke country? will be
answered effectually. The govern
ment is making these experiments,
not with a view of making money out
of the process, but for the sake of the
it will bring to the people.
1t would cost any private individual
more than he might be .able to risk
