Michigan Next to the Top in the Beet
Sugar Industry.

According to the official figures OF
the sugar beet industry las given out
from Saginaw, Michigan frightened its
hold on second place among Amer
lean states in 1909.
The years output of sugar in the
state shows an increase of about 70
per cent over 1908, when it was
l90,000,000 pounds. 1t is quite safe
to say that the only state to pass
Michigan's 230,000,000 pounds for
1909 was Colorado. California, which
has been running neck and neck with
Michigan, made fairly good gain
for the year but not enough to threat
en- the Wolverine states position.
In fact, Michigan is rather rapidly
outpacing all her competitors in this
industrial competition. A year ago
the country's output of sugar was
$4,000 long tons. This year it show
ed about 5000 long tons, an increase
of Is per cent. Our own gain of 20
per cent would not take very many
gin previously held by Colorado, now
our only leader in the race.
1t is not only in weight of beets
that Michigan is catching up on her
competitors, however. The sugar con-
tent of beets raised here is greater
than that in the western states, con-
trary to the assertions that were
made during the tariff discussions in
congress. In the last two years Mich
igan's percentage of sugar in her
beets has been two or three per cent
above that of Colorado, so that this
state has oustripped Colorado in
quality if not i'll quantity, Michigan
beets producing now some 40 pounds
more sugar to the ton than those
raised in the mountain district.
The interesting point in this for the
farmer is that the Michigan agricul-
turist gets more money per ton for
his beet crop than his fellow-farmers
anywhere III the west. He is finding
that the industry helps him to ac-
quire ready cash in way that has
only begun to open for him. The
fact that some $5,500,000 was spent
in the state for beets by the factories
last year has been of very consider
able economic effect in Michigan.

have it in their power to increase
their receipts from this source be-
You'd the addition of new fields for the
crop. They can add to the yield per
acre very materially by following
hints given by the agricultural de-
partment. They can improve their
yield by exercising greater care in
the choice of fields for this purpose
Planting should be done earlier, as
soon as possible after the frosts, in
fact. Continuous cultivation of the
planted fields will work wonders in
the output and careful rotation Of
crops, so that beets shall not follow
beets, will add still more to the fund
of welcome dollars that is flowing in
to the farmers pockets from the beet
ndustry.-Detroit Free Press.

A black and remarkable interstel-
lar region has been discovered
through observations taken by the
balloon flying staff of the weather bu-
reau by scientists abroad. Chief Will
lis l.. Moore, of the weather bureau,
who is head of the National Geo
graphic Society, as we'll, has advised
the house committee on agriculture
that, during the past summer months
we found warm patches of air far
above the earth" I'VE have found"
said Prof. Moore, ''as "a result of
these balloons-and our observations
are verified abroad-one of the most
wonderful things in meteorology. All
our physicists have assumed that tenn
perature gradually decreases with ele-
walton until in outer space there is
no temperature. We sent up balloons
from Omaha and indianapolis, above
the storm stratum, which is six miles
deep, rising and falling with the sea-
sons. Above the storm stratum there
is an entirely different atmosphere
floating upon the storm element like
oil on water, with an easterly velocity
OF only half the lower air. From the
storm stratum up through this there
is a slight rise in temperature. We
call 1t an equally heated stratum
the isothermal. In this constant air
ocean, there are no storm eddies; in
1t the minutest rays of light are alb
sorbed. We are living in thin skin
of air illuminated and all the rest be-
tween us and the sun is darkness"

TEMPERANCE NOTES.

The moral consideration OF the
temperance question is and should be
greater than the economic considera-
ton, but you cannot get enough men
to vote for prohibition or local op-
ton from moral standpoint, so you
must convince them that temperance
is good for business" said DIR. Samuel
Dickie, president of Albion college, in
opening his address to the Sociology
class of First Baptist church.
Some people say that prohibition
of liquor would injure business-that
stores. houses and Offices would stand
vacant and thousands of men would
be out of employment. They say
that business would decrease, the
town would run down, that the grass
would grow on the streets if prohibi-
ton went into effect
+ How can the abolition of bust
ness, which returns no value for
money and whose aim is to turn hard
working, industrious men into drunk
ards, decrease and injure business?
And as far as the grass growing is
concerned / would vote for the grass.
Grass never broke a woman's heart.
"A claim of anti-prohibitionists and
the promoters of the liquor business
is that prohibition does not prohibit,
that the sale of liquor will go on just
the same. The claim of these people
is to me ridiculous. They have, a
standard for Judging the prohibitory
laws alone and if the prohibitory laws
don't abolish the act entirely they
claim that it is worthless.
"A peculiar thing is that in the pro-
hibition states, Maine Kansas, North
Carolina, Alabama, etc, the temper
ance workers are fairly well satisfied
not entirely, but fairly well. They feel
that the laws have done good. Ian
sing Republican.
Reports from Coldwater are to the
effect that DRINKS in Branch county
have fallen off about three-fourths.
Such a percentage is cheering to the
enemies of inebriety, but the other
| fellows think that law that doesn't
clean up the whole bunch is no good.
| Three or four years of the present
record would thin out the ranks
of the 'drunks so that any man who
pretends to any sort of responsibility
would not be willing to be seen there
| after carrying an overload of booze
