She Didn't Know Beans.

The class in botany at the Towson
high school this year was given some
practical work to do. Each member was
required to plant some beans and report
progress.
Some time after the beans had been
put into the ground the instructor
called on the class to tell what they had
noted. All went well until she came to
one of the young women.
What have you to say, Miss -"
asked the teacher.
my beans did not come up right"
said the pupil; "they backed out of the
ground and l pulled them out and buried
them again, leaving the sprouts above
the soil. They came up as at first, and
l put them in right again, but the ole
things backed out again to-day, and ;
don't know what to do with them"
1t vas some time before the young
woman could be MADE to understand
that Iature requires that the bean come
out before the yine appears.--Cblcsgo

Austin, Tex, Jan. 16.-Adjutant-
General Hulen of the State of Texas
left here today for Washington, with
some $4,000 worth of claims against

represent frontier protection afforded
by Texas troops during the early days

that there is an excellent chance for
their settlement at present. Adjutant-
General Hulen will also try to secure

BEET. SUGAR PRODUCING.
The Government Is Meeting with
Good Results in It's Elk
periments.

Believing that commercial advance i.
growing beet sugar depends largely
upon the character of seed furnished tho
grower, the United States department oil
agriculture is making every effort to
produce a strain of peuigree seed that
will enable American farmers to pro-
duce large yields to the acre of beets,
containing a large percentage of sugar
and a lower percentage of undesirable
constituents.
The work was begun by securing the
best strains of European seeds and all
known strains of American-grown seeds
and growing them for comparison. Of
these the best four strains were selected
as foundation stocks and all beets of ex-
ceptional quality were saved and plant
ed the following yea as mother beets
for seed production.
In the succeeding year one-half of the
seeds secured from these individual
plants were own and the best speci-
mems or beetS preserved as speci-
mems for the production of the first
crop of elite" seeds. The other half of
the seed was planted this year and the
beets secured will furnish next years
supply of seed for the new strain. Along
this same line of improvement a pri-
waite grower at Fairfield, Wash. has
produced a lot of some 800 roots testing
from 20 to "a per cent. sugar, a most ex-
traordinary achievement in view of the
fact that the usual best seeds available
de- not contain over Is per cent. sugar
contents. This valuable improvement
in sugar content is combined with a high
yie.d per acre and a very high coefi-
cient of purity, ranging from sc to 92
per cent.
This means it is perfectly feasible
eventually to make permanent this high
sugar content, and when this is accom-
plished the farmer will have a r for |
the manufacturer is willing to pay
One-third more to the ton. Last
year the department furnished some
lots of high-class seed to growers
for observation in comparison with the
seed furnished them by the factories for
their crops were intended.
The returns from SCI acres show that
one strain of government seed contained
one-half per cent. more sugar and yield
I'd one and a half tons more to the acre
than factory seed.

MISSISSIPPI MATTERS
M .ssippi Memoir

In joint session The members of the
legislature listened attentively TO Gen.
Stephen d. Lee, who presented in a
most appealing manner the cause OIL the
establishment of a memorial by the
state OF Mississippi on the now m
able battle-ground of Vicksburg.
Gen. Lee made an eloquent appeal.
Largely eulogistic of the patriots of
Mississippi who fought at Vicksburg,
and statistical in comparison with what
other States were doing in the matter,
were the remarks of Gen. Lee. The
United States government had made
this battle-ground one of four public
parks. The first public park establish
ed was Shiloh, which had received in
appropriations for the establishment
OF monuments on It's face the sum Of
100000. Gettysburg was next i'm
proved to the extent of SO, 200, 900. At
Chickamauga there had been over 81
100000 expended. Vicksburg has al
ready had appropriated the sum of
$4,000, and many of the Southern
States had not done their part. The
United States government, through it's
park commission, had blazed the way.
and sixteen of the extreme Northern
States which lost men in the Vicksburg
contest had been liberal in ~appropria-
lions. Certainly there was no greater
valor, no more true courage, nor more
heOric endurance than that shown bv
the Mississippians who had a part in
this fight. He believed in caring for
the living of that period, but he also
the erection of a monumen in
new public park, of no small pro-
portions, establishing forever the APP
probation and respect for that effort.
He paid a beautiful tribute to the
Southern soldier and to the noble wO-
men OF the South, who withstood and
endured in war and so nobly helped TO
lost fortunes in time of peace.
Mississippi is a State which ranks high
n the matter of progress made. She
has wealth, progress marks her every
coming day, and she is full of growing
industry. He expressed heartfelt
'ratitude to the young men of this
state, many of whom had sacrificed
pportunity, had steppad aside, in favor
i the DID Confederate veterans.

A SEASON OF LACE.
Such Charming Little Jackets Are
Offered To-Day-The Various
Styles and Laces.

AS this is season of lace, the lace
department is of particular interest.
Among the many charming novelties
shown are the little lace jackets which
promise to form an important feature
of the seasons toilets. These are
shown in real French and Irish lace,
combined with batiste and hand en-
broidery, with graceful little quarter
sleeves. Others are in baby Irish and
heavy crochet, with half sleeves and
slashed up the back. The same style
of jacket is shown in their batiste
and "Vap' combinations. Collars and
chemisettes, with cuffs and half sleeves
to match, in all the fashionable laces,
are another feature of this department,
and there are some beautiful speci-
mems of the new Point d'Auvergne.
One may select from large variety
of beautiful white waists here-and
practically all waists are white this
season. One attractive model was
of accordion plated chiffon, with
handmade German "Val' insertion,
three large German medallions form
ing the yope. The short sleeves and a
girdle were of white satin. Another
model was TO all-over net, with imi-
tation Irish insertion and perpendicu-
lar tucks, forming a pointed yoke.
The short sleeves were finished with a
ruffle of net and the high neck with a
ruching of German 'val." A charm
ing china silk waist had tucks and
German ''Val." insertion Stimulating q
bolero jacket. The sleeves were
trimmed with bands of perpendicular
insertion, with cuff of insertion. and
small ruffles Of china silk.
The summer suits and dress fabrics
show a striking predominance Of
gray-bride's gray, princess gray and
small black and white stripes, checks
and figures, giving the gray effect In
the foulards and figured India silks,
which they make specially of here,
this color seems to be particularly at
tractive.
Gray also appears in hosiery, but
white is the predominating color in
this department, as elsewhere. Lace
hosiery is leader again, but the en-
broidered hosiery that was in such
demand last season is seen no more.
except in a few special designs. In
the same way, the highly colorei
stripes and plaids that were consid-
cred correct in mems hosiery last sea-
son have disappeared, being replaced
by the plain colors and black.
