what a leading financier of New York
is reported to have said when Grant,
in 1875, signed the grsenbaok re-
demption bill, which was to go into
effect on January l, 1879. Many
persons thought it would be impos-
sible for the government to collect
enough gold and silver in the inter
val to hand out to the holders of
greenbscks who would be at the
treasury window clamoring for the
hard money which had been invisible
for years. But there was no rush for
the specie. Under the impulse of
the redemption law, the governments
credit stesdily improved, gresnbscks
and the rest Of the currency sdvsnc-
ed, and par was reached by the be-
ginning Of 1879. The speculstors,
seeing that they could get gold for
their boards CT grssnbscks, prefer
red to hang on to the greenbscks.
Ever since that day the credit Of the
United States government has been
steadily advancing. The low inte-
rest bonds of every other govern
ment are below par. Ours are far
above that limo. OF course, one res-
son why United States 2s are at
premium is that they can be used Is
a basis for bank circulation. Priv
ate investors, however seem to have
bought much of the Panama bonds.

In the Arkansas Valley of Colora-
do the company has this year under
contract and under its own cultiva-
tion $4,000 acres of beets,ss compar.
ed with 10000 for the season OF
19O5-O8.
The office referred to does not
consider the western sugar market
over-supplied and quoted figures to
show that American beet sugar was
as yet but an insignificant proper
tion of the whole production.
He admitted that beet sugar il
more expensive to produce
than cane sugar, but asserted
that it, instead of cane sugar, wa,
preferred by purchasers. He added
that the company was constantly
carrying on a scientific investigatio n
of manufacturing methods, with q
view to decreasing the cost of pro
duction. In this matter, he said
progress had already been made and

Ideal Farms

Lamar is becoming the recogniz-

in carriages.
After spending the day looking
over the possibilities of agriculture

American Beet Sugar Comps

In contradiction of trade reports
that the production of beet sugar
throughout the country is likely to
be greatly curtailed within the next
two years on account of an overpro-
ducti6n of all sugars in the western
territory, an officer of the American
Beet Sugar company says that SO
far as the statement applies to that

refuted by the fact that the company
now has under construction two new
