 'I have just been east, in the fur mar kets, looking over the demand for fur to use for imitation seal The black cat is valuable because 1t does not have to be dyed, but there Is so much imitation seal being used that l have thought there might be money fin raising a cat fur that would have uniform color that would dye like seal.
 Many of the imitation seals are made from rabbit skin. but cat Is much more durable and stronger. My idea was to begin the breeding of maltese cats in an- other part of the island and separate the other two by wire fences. The color would dye very nicely. I left some skins to be treated and dyed, and the report will decide what I will do.
 No, there is no cruelty in killing the animals. We want to preserve the skin intact, so we will kill them by the use of sulphur fumes in a large room with low ceiling. The fumes kill the animals painlessly. and they are good for the fur also"
 The cat raiser made no secret of his business, because he said the demand for cat skins is so great that there was little chance of the business being overdone.

REMARKABLE JOURNEY
Made By Winner of Balloon Race From
 France to Hungary.

Paris Correspondent Chicago Tribune
 Jacoues Faure. winner of last Sunday balloon race. arrived in Paris today. He tells the following story of his trip rom Paris to Leutschan, Hungary
 eve set off from the Tuilleries Garden at 4.24 o'clock Sunday afternoon, ana passed across the Place Vendome 10 the south of the Sacre Occur at moderate height, but on quitting Paris altogether we rose to an altitude to 6ooO rect or so above the clouds which had been de- pressing Parisians throughout the day Above us. however, at perhaps l2'000 rect from the earth, was another cloud belt. So we whirled along between these two belts. in a clear but frightfully cold at- mosphere.
 '.The cold was really terrible. All our water and other liquids were frozen solld' We felt about as miserable as possible. The hail and rain continually descended. drenchng us through to the skin.
 "At midnight exactly a remarkable dis- turbance in conditions took place. The cloud banks above and below us split up as if by magic, and we again saw the earth beneath us. l was not quite sure where we were at this time, but fancy the mass of light We saw beneath us must have been Strasbourg
 Above us we could make out the great hear with distinctness. Indeed, from then onward I was able to tell our bear ings by the light of the pole star. Thus from midnight to 5:30 o'clock in the morn ing we glided along In the glow of a magnificent moon. The clouds, however, filled in beneath us and obscured the earth from our vision.
 "All this time 1t remained wretchedly cold Our bags of ballast. which had been wetted, were frozen solid and we were obliged to bang them against the edge of the car to loosen the particles of sand so that they should do no in jury when we threw them out.
 At o'clock In the morning we rose to 12,00O feet and continued to rise. We already had sped above the Danube for over 260 kilometers d62 miles). and had obtained most fascinating views from time to time as we swept along at a speed we'll over 100 kilometers t62 miles) an hour,
 "All this time the morning sun was expanding the gas in the balloon, and we were drying ourselves nicely. Yet all the time we were gradually sinking Over board had gone all our ballast, our spare clothes, bags of provisions-in fact. ev- erything which tended to weigh us down. We were racing and took every ad- vantage, but all was useless. The mo- ment had come, as It comes to all bal loonists, when the gas must dissipate

RAISING OF SUGAR BEETs
Boise Farmers Report After Vist'ns
Beet Fields Near Idaho Falls.

The growth of the sugar beet lhdus-
try IN southern Idaho has been phe-
nomenal and the rapid extension OF
the crop to the Boise and Payette val
1eys has led many farmers to a study
of the methods of culture and the cost
OF production. a Boise valley FARMER
who recently made a visit to the beet
fields Of southeastern Idaho gives the
net results to the readers of the Boise
Statesman In the following:
Judging from what I saw and
learned in the vicinity OF Idaho Falls
and Sugar City, we should produce Is
tons per acre, which at $3.50 per ton.
would amount to $67.50. Jap labor can
be contracted at $40 to $40 per acre.
say $50. This means all the hand work
ana we will say the team work and
irrigating three times, done by the
farmer, is worth SIS. The seed fur
nished by the sugar company costs

pecially for the purpose. also done by
the company. II desired. at so cents
per acre, in all amounting to s3775;
net profit, s29.75. Now here we have
a net profit of nearly $50 per acre after
allowing the producer good pay for
all work
II don't know of any other crop that
will pay as we'll. Dairying can be
connected with beet raising to good
advantage, as the tops can all be used
for feed. They can be kept n long time
by stacking UP with layers of hay OIL
straw and beet tops alternately. Con

from the city limits, pipes being run
from the reservoir to the city. Profess
sor Roberts says that the available
water supply from the mountain spring
south of here is sufficient for a city
of 100000 people. The quality of the
water Is certainly fine. as 1t is pure and
cool. The council will meet tonight tc
further discuss the water works anes

ably be engaged to furnish an estimate
