Temple Many Centuries Old.

The Temple, where Louis XVI. and
his family were confined, was very
old building, having been the monas-
terry of the knights Templar in the
thirteenth century. For couple of
centuries 1t was the residence of the
grand priors of France, and sheltered
a population of 1000 people beneath
its roof. 1t was unoccupied when
King Louis was sent there From it's
gloomy chambers he was taken to the
scaffold After his death his wife
was conveyed to the Conciergerie
chateau of the Bishop of Winches-
ter, afterward a pleasure house of the
Duke of Berry. and then Carthusian
monastery, became in the sixteenth
century prison for tramps, lunatics,
beggars and young men worn out by
debauchery,' and went by the name of
Bicetre. There men who were only
half mad when they went in became
altogether mad before they got out.
The treatment was simple. The
tramp was starved. The lunatic was
whipped. The sinner was confined In
an underground tunnel where he was
chained to the wall till he was put
to death. More prisoners were killed
at Bicetre during the awful days OF
September 1892, when all Paris went
mad, than ia any prison

OWOSSO. FRIDAY, MARCH 23. 1906.

1t has been estimated that the annual
average net cost for ten years to the
United States of the subsidies provided
for under the terms of the shipping bill
formed and favored by President Roose-
yelt's merchant marine commission
would be $4,625, 600. Great Britain will
pay for the coming year between Sc,
900, 600 and $7O00,000 in shipping sub
sides, France, $4,000, 900, Italy, So, 0OO
900, and Japan about $4,000, 600. Will
the money invested in this effort to in
crease the shipping and commerce of
our country be well and profitably in
vested, is a question that should govern
action concerning it. President Roose-
welt evidently thinks it would. Our
great competitors on the seas and in the
markets of the world evidently find il
profitable. 1t would seem to be an ex'
pertinent that tie United States can
well afford to give fair trial

Making Money from Sugar Beets.


The above subject was presented by
A. B. Cook and discussed by p. B.
Reynolds at the State Institute held
at the Agricultural College. The
Michigan Farmer gives the following
report:
Mr.. Cook emphasized the necessity of
good cultural methods for best results
and referred to the fact that the
average crop in Germany is about 10
tons per acre, while in contest at a
Michigan factory where considerable
reward was at stake for the man who
succeeded IN raising the largest ton
over Is tons per acre, which comparison
shows how much room there is for i'm
provement in cultural methods in Mich
igan, not withstanding the fact that
Michigan is first in the output of beet
sugar with only Colorado and Califor-
MIA as notable competitors in this coun-
try. Mr.. Cook advises a rotation in
which sugar beets occur after beans,
the bean crop following clover, and
clover being again seeded with grain
crop following the sugar beets. This
rotation was advised for the reason that
where clean culture is given to the
beans it is not necessary to plow the
ground for the beets and the whole ro-
tation can be gone through with one
| blowing. In this way the beets can be
gotten in early in the spring, which is
| essential for best results. He would
plant in 29.inch rows rather than 81
| inch rows for the reason that less extra
machinery is required and carefully
compiled statistics show that there is
practically no difference in the yield.
Mr. Cook spoke of the contract labor
system as growing in favor among the
beet growers of his section, and ex-
pressed the opinion that the industry
has great future in this state, an
opinion which is based upon the belief
that it is the most profitable of the
ordinary farm crops which may be
grown upon the average farm. He has
grown beets upon a variety of soils
with success, any soil that is fertile and
we'll titled giving good results but the
beets show preference for clay soils.
The increase in the sugar content of
beets through the intelligent breeding
of seed was touched upon and the
necessity of good cultural methods en-
phasized by the statement that at least
tons per acre were required to pay ex-
penses, which average about the same
for poor as for good crop since most
of the hand work is done by the acre or
by the row.
MIR. Reynolds, of Owosso, took up the
discussion of the question, about the
only essential in which he differed with
Mr.. Cook being the place. which beets
should occupy in the crop rotation. he
would have the beets follow corn in
stead of beans since corn was of more
value in his system of farming, beans
having been eliminated largely from his
crop rotation, the corn being fed tc
stock and the fertility being retained
upon the farm. Much interest was
manifested in this discussion and many
questions were asked and answered
with regard to cultural methods.

ia at least one case on record wher

MI. Magrain had been arrested and
tried for breaking the liquor laws and
had been sentenced to pay fine OF

had expressed himself as likely to
choose the latter, but changed his
mind, paid the fine, and, as a result
lost his life.
