AMERICAN BEET SUGAR.

That the beet industry has developed
In the United States and has come to
stay seems now to be about as certainly
assured as is the permanence of any
other of our great American industries.
In the United States the beet sugar
industry is practically very recent
one, and now, within less than four
decades from the failure of a single
factory at Chatsworth, Illinois, and the
final success of that grand old pioneer
in the modern beet sugar industry, E.
II. Dyer at Alameda, California, the
beet sugar industry has attained pro-
portions exceeding the cane sugar in
dustry of the Gulf States, where the
sugar cane has flourished for more than
century. Now, every feature of the
beet sugar industry is being carefully

ON LITTLE LANAI.

Baby industries in Hawaii make
great deal of noise for their size, aud
as infants prove to be as robust rs
they are powerful when they grow up.
The Lanai Company, Ltd, and its sub
sidiary companies announced several
important developments in their affairs
during the week, the most important Of
which was the taking over of the
agency by Hackfeld & Co. The COM
pany forms a type of those which are
'making' Hawaii, sparing neither
pains nor money in adding industries to
Hawaii s list from which to derive addi
tional revenue. Important work has
been done in improving the Lanai
Ranch Company's herds. The new
plans for the cultivation of beet sugar
are being watched with interest.

stuffs. John H. Sheppard, dean of the

Fargo, today gave some expert testi-
mony before the senate special investi-
eating committee. His figures were
based upon a COMPARISON of present.
day values with ten years ago. In one
breath he admitted land had increased
in value $50 per cetn and claimed the
producing capacity had decreased 20
per cent. Retail prices of agricultural
machinery had advanced 10 per cent
and labor so per cent. AS the price OF
labor advances, efficiency decreases, he
said. Finally Sheppard said dollar
wheat today was worth no more than

TWO FIRES At GElNNELL.
Serious Blaze Among Oils Narrowl,
Averted,

Special to Times Republican.
Grinnell May 10.-The fire alarm
just before noon yesterday called out
the department to a blaze In the roof
of the odl Lewis Cass place on South
Broad street, which was eXtinguished
with a loss not to exceed probably
$500. The residence now belongs to
F.. e. Mintle and thanks are due to
the firemen that the loss was not much
greater from water as, after the fire
wa sout, they took hold and got the
water out as quickly as possible and
saved much damage in the lower story
Another fire occurred at the noon
hour that, but for it's very timely dis
covery, would no doubt have been
equal to the disastrous one at New
Sharon recently and from the same
cause. Some one had set fire to Il
large bunch Of paper in the alley back
of Sharpe's meat market. The alley
is narrow and on the north side Is n
long wooden building belonging to the
Perry esetate and used by the Appleby
Grocery Company for the storage of
goods. The frame is covered with thin
sheet iron rusted with age. A piece
of burning paper was blow naSainst
the building at the bottom where there
was an opening in the covering and
the dry boards caught at once. The
fire worked mot the inside and against
barrel Of oil and burned the side Of
the barrel and the flames were eating
the boards nearly to the caves when
discovered. By presence OF mind and
activity. with water close at hand. the
fire was put out without serious re-
suits but with tow barrels of oil where
fire started and large supply tank of
gasoline not ten feet away 1t is easy
to see how disastrous results might
have been if discovery had been de-
layed few minutes. The wonder is
that anyone would be so thoughtless
as TO start an open fire In narrow
alley with considerable breeze blow
ing and contrary especial ordinance
of the city.
