A LESSON FROM THE SKIES.

Nowhere else on the American con. tinent do the stars shine as they do on clear night from the indigo skies of Arizona. IL is just before the dawn. that hour which is the darkest, when the music of the night is husned in ex. pectancy of the breaking of the morn. ing that the heavens are most bcauti- ful. No matter how sordid may have been the day, how trying. how filled with pain and worry, there is a God E tonic in the beauty of the heavens for him who is acquainted with tne sacred hour just before the dawn. To stand alone on any of the heights of Prescott during this secred hour with eyes and soul drinking in the matehless panarama of stars and planets circling around their various suns while wanderers from the unknown worlds come shooting down as if to bathe in eestaey in the purity of this plateau atmosphere, is to court an in. teryiew with God which drives care from the mind and lights one's soul with the realization that all is govern el by the intelligence of Love.

TONS or SWEETNESS.

This is an age of steel, an age of cotton and an age of various other substances, including sugar The worlds demand for sweetcning has more than doubled during the last twelve years. The British Board of Trade estimates the output of sugar for 1906 al lI,3l2,. ZIG long tons. Statistic of lSgI show the production of that year as G.S00,. 900 tons in asmueh as the increased consumption, m this country a. least cannot be attributed to decreased prices of the commodity, the greater use of Inc article may he regarded as one of tho social phcnomca of the times
 The New York Sun gives statistics which indicate that thc United States consumes about 2o per cent of the total output and our per capital consumption shows large and steady increase. Our demand for sugar reached l.001,00O tons for the ars, time m lssl. in Is9i 1t reached 2,00O,000 tons. and it ls to day very close to 5000 ooo tons a wear. Thirty years ago the wholesale plIec of granulated sugar was about nlnc cents a pound, and the per capita consump. ton in the United states was about forty pounds a year. Nt the immediate time the price of the commodity Is somewhat above the normal, which may he taken at IF cents pound, and the per capital consumption K a little above so pounds year. That is, within n generation the price has been cut in two and the per capita consumption has been doubled.

ABANDONED MINE SCENE 0F RICH

tFrom Tuesday's Daily)

More gold excitement was caused yesterday when it became known that a rich strike had been made in an old mine on Spring Creek, sew enty-fve miles north of Globe, and that there was . rush of men into the coun. try from Roosevelt and other nearby points as soon as the rumors of the shrike leaked out, says the Globe Sil. yer Belt.
 Samples of the ore brought 10 Globe by prospector named Shoemaker, who made the find, assayed $554 to tne ton. They run 27.7 oz. gold and s.9 oz. sil. ger. Shoemaker was very much excited and left yesterday morning for the camp, taking ten men with him to put to work in the mine.
 The discovery was made in an aban. doned mine on the Spring Creek ranch, n mile and half from the creek. The vein starts in near the top of a 55- foot shaft and at the bottom it is n good eighteen incnes across. Shoe. maker says the mine has been aban. doned for over twenty years.

Porto Rico, which come in free of duty, as domestic products, 1t appears that about 70 per cent of our supply is do. nestle. Ten years ago the American beet sugar industry was struggling and feeble enterprise. lt has now at tained some importance, with promise of reaching n yield of 5OO,000 tons a year in the course of the next few years. The Louisiana cane industry shows tuctuntion in yearly output. but the average yearly production during Inc Inst fen years exceeds the average of earlier decades. Within ten years receipts from Hawaii have increased from about 200,0O0 tons to about 37j,. GOO tons and receipts from Porto Rico have increased from less than 10000 tons to about lsO,OOO tons. While beet sugar forms nearly one,half of the worlds total sugar production, about s5 per cent of the American supply comes from cane.
 bur national sugar bowl now holds approximately 6,ooO,000,0oO pounds and the contents thereof cost us not far from s3O0,Ooo0O0 year. Tae size of the bowl and our individual extraction from it increase steadily. We eat more candy more jcllies and more pre-. serves, and where the cook books of earlier days prescribed "one cup mo. lass's' the books of today call for sugar. The days of cornmeal and mo. l"sses are of tho past. We live in an age of wheat -four and sugar.

"Do you believe that these reforms should be carried out, even, if in doing this there should be risk of temporar. ily business cOnditionsP' This aues. ton was answered afiirmatively by 9,OO7 persons, and negatively by 2l9. The next question was whether the subscribers would support the Presi. dent and Congress in carrying out cor poration reforms, even if it meant sec rihce in the form of money panies and restriction of bank credits. The an swer ,o this was in the affirmative by 0,l37 'o l75.
 The greatest difference in opinion was on the fifth question: "Do you believe in inc policy of permanently retaining the Philippine Islands'" The ayes were j,2li and the noes 3,s9i.

Frs RETURN HOME.

Several families Of Germans who
have been employed in the valley har-
vesting sugar beets, left Billings yes
terday for their. homes. The crop is
now about all out of the ground and
the outside help are returning home
and many Of them have contracted for
next years work and will return again
in the spring.
Many Of the employees are from the
German colony a Lincoln, Neb.,
and were noticeable on account OF
the apparent lack OF race suicide and
their clearly, thrifty appearance. They
all seemed happy and contented. The
women Of the party were particularly
strong and healthy. Al remarkable
fact was that there was not one cry:
ing child in the crowd that filled
the local station yesterday. Many who
came here to work in the beet fields
have taken up homesteads and have
become ranchers Of the new empire
OF the northwest.

FOREIGN SCIENTIFIC FARMER is
DELIGHTED.
FOR GERMAN FARMERS
Scientist from Germany Inspects the
EARNING Regions Tributary to Bill
inss and Is Delishted-Expects
Many Germans to Come Here.
Wednesdays Daily.

From Wednesdays Daily.
The territory tributary to Billings
offers wonderful inducements to the
scientific German farmer, who immi-
CRATES to the United States declares
II. Holtzerman, a German farming
scientist, who is in America to study
American methods Of agriculture and
who has been in Billings for the pas,
few days.
II expect there will be many Ger
mans come to this section It has
good opportunities for them Land
here is cheap and it is quite produc-
tive. You do not have to fertilize
it as you do land in the old country.
II have just returned from the
northern section of this county, where
l saw dry land farming regions in the
vicinity of Broadview. / was greatly
surprised at the fertility of the soil
and the wonderful possibilities evil
dent. Nearly all the soil l saw is un-
usually rich.''
Mr.. Holtzerman, who has been the
guest of his cousins, we'll known de-
partment store owners of Minneapolis,
came to Billings with T. F. Danahe''
of the Musselshell Land company in
order to see the dry land farming sec
lions near here. He made the trip
from Billings to Lavina and return by
automobile.
Previous to coming here he visited
farms in Minnesota and in South Da-
kota and invested in some land. But
better than what he saw before coin-
ing here.
Farming in America and in Ger
many is different" he said. 81 have
had charge of several large farms at
different occasions. On one of them,
a 600 acre farm, we had more than
SO fine work horses and employed ali
the year around from 80 to 35 Een. No
such equipment would be needed in
this county. In the first place. on that
farm we spent at least $4,000 every
year for artificial fertilizer. You do
not have to do that here, so that you
can see what opportunities the farm
land Of this country offers compared
to that Of Germany"
Mr.. Holtzerman 1eaves today Tor
Minneapolis and on December S he
will leave for Germany. He expects
to return here again and may come to
locate permanently.
