EAT MOST SUGAR.
American Craving for Sweet Things
Makes Record in It's
Way.

That Americans are the greatest can
dy eaters in the world is a familiar
fact, but that the national liking for
sweets tends generally to all articles
containing sugar in large quantities is
not so we'll known.
The consumption of sugar in the
United States has been steadily rising
for twenty years and now exceeds that
of any other country. 1t amounts to
y pounds a head of population, the
figures being as follows for other ma
lions: England, 6S pounds; Denmark,
80; France, 80; Holland, 80; Switzer-
land, q; Germany, 20; Sweden, 20;
Italy, 10, and Spain 6.
The consumption of sugar in the
United States exceeds in a year $780,
900 tons, and it approximates the total
consumption of sugar on the whole Eu-
ropean Notwithstanding that of all
Europe, exclusive of Great Britain, in
which the consumption amounts to L.
200 tons year.
The American craving for sugar, 50
for from showing any indications of
decline. seems to be on the increase,
as is shown by the fact that the aver
age consumption per capita has in
creased half a pound in five years.

TRYING TO
HOLD LABOR
Law to Discourage Men
Who Would Charm
Japs Away.

With a view to the strong discour-
aeenent of those men who are charm
ing the laborers away from the sugar
plantations. Senator Bishop yesterday
introduced the following bill into the
Senate. 1t was read first time by title,
and referred to the printing commit

country of the South African war, it
will be remembered. was estimated at
81 ,140 000, 900. 1t is fairly safe to assume
that for so long as the present struggle
lasts the expenditure will continue on
something ike the same gigantic scale,
draining the resources of both coun-
tries to the utmoSt.-London Express.

Wants to Start Creamery.

T. M. Champeny, of Milwaukee,

and gave it out that he contemplates
putting in a $4,000 creamery early
this spring, providing he can get the
Cooperation of the farmers OF the

from the farmers to the effect that
they will furnish him with the milk
of 600 COWS daily, so as to insure the
success of the plant.
The proposition is to establish
skimming stations throughout the
valley, so that farmers can sell their
cream and take the skimmilk home
with them, to use on the farms, and
thus save the express charges for its
return.

GRADING the Cream.

A large number of managers OF
gathered cream creameries handling
cream from farm separators agree
that the only way to secure any real
and permanent improvement in the
quality and condition of the cream
delivered is to pay different prices
according to grade, says the New York
Produce Review This proposition
seems entirely reasonable and even
though the difficulty of doing exact
justice to all in placing irregular quail
tiles of cream in, say, two grades, is
apparent we have advocated the sys-
tenn strongly, believing it to be the
most natural and the most potent
means of inducing patrons to take
proper care of their cream.
One of the difficulties of the grad.
ing system is to satisfy those whose
cream is put into the second and lower
priced grade that they are being justly
treated; and the feeling of distrust
may be sometimes due to the feeling
that judgment on the quality and
value is passed by an interested party.
With this thought in view, and be-
lieving that the creameries where
grading is undertaken do, in fact, en-
deavor to discriminate with perfect
fairness, it seems possible that greater
satisfaction might be secured if there
were any means by which the cream
could be graded by someone whose
interests were divided equally between
the buyer and seller.
Possibly the art of judging cream
qualities might be made a speciality
at some of the dairy schools and prop
erly qualified persons employed for
this purpose jointly by the creamery
and patrons. 1t would seem possible
that cream sellers would be more gen.
orally satisfied with a discrimination
in prices for their goods if the judg-
ment was passed by person account
able to them as we'll as to the buyers.

r1olstein blood, other conditions being
favorable.
We're we to go into the great dairy
tho sections of Switzerland today we
would find a breed of cattle there
whose milk is made up into the ia
nous Swiss cheese" Their milk is
narticularly adapted to the produc
tion of the peculiar flavor which char
octerizes the imported product and
causes it to bring double the price of
orr American-made Swiss cheese. The
breed is nowkn as the Brown Swiss,
and while in reality they are a dual
nurpose breed, their peculiarly fla
vored milk has made them valuable in
the production of cheese.
The strictly dairy COW, of whatever
breed she may be, is a highly artifi-
cial product, and since she has been
bred with some distinct purpose in
view we have reason to expect great
deal of her, not only in quality but
also in uniformity.
The dairyman with his herd of ma
tive or scrub cattle may be able to
secure fairly good results, but should
he desire to increase his herd with
such stock he can do so only with the
rSk Ol SIOdIly Cudh6ihS LID hOAu SOh
ditions, and thus uniformity is lost
The offspring of such herd may in
herit certain qualities from their an
cestors not apparent in the dam, and
in this way uniform production, which
is so important to the modern dairy
man, is uncertain.
But with well-bred cattle the case
is different. BY well-bred l mean not
only pure-bred registered animals but
the high-grade cattle also which have
been bred with a special object in
view. CHANGING back over their an
cestral line we generally find long
string of good producers, and all along
they have been carefully bred so that
we may expect uniform conditions
both in quality and quantity. The dali
ryman who keeps this kind of cattle
may add to his original stock without
danger of changing his herd cOndi-
tons, and he also knows reasonably
we'll what to expect of his young
stock.
Perhaps the greatest revelation to
the producer of dairy products, as to
the value of well-bred cattle, is the
financial returns received from such
products. Did you ever hear of
scrub cow bringing large returns for
her owner? If so, then she was an
exception. True, there are scrub COWS
that have made enormous records, but
they form very small per cent OF
their kind found in the dairy world
today, and could their ancestry be
traced they would undoubtedly be
found to have sprung from some one
of the strictly dairy breeds
This to the person about to start In
the dairy industry might sound dis
couraging, for the returns from dairy
products are not sufficient to warrant
the investment of the amount OF
money necessary to secure a herd OF
registered COWS. But this is not nee
essary, for if he will use judgment in
selecting the best native and grade
cattle to be had, then using first
class thoroughbred sire of the breed
especially adapted to his needs, who
is capable of transmitting his good
qualities to his offspring, he will in
few years have a herd that will not
only give him uniformity in produc-
ton, but will yield him handsome re-
turns as well.

There is likely to be a creamery
built this spring in st. Maries, Idaho.
A large number of the owners of COWS
in that vicinity met the other day and
canvassed the matter. The project
was endorsed as feasible.
