Sugar Production.

One of the most important products
of the world is sugar, of which there
was manufactured in 1909, 14,710,000
tons, and of this enormous output
7,935,000 tons were made of cane and
6,775,000 tons were produced from
beets. The manufacture of sugar from
cane was first introduced into the
United States from southern Europe
and about 1890 its production COM
menced in Louisiana, where congenial
soil and climate were found for the
propagation of the cane. The original
processes were clumsy and more or less
crude, but an excellent article of sugar
was produced, although in limited guam
titles. Improvements were made in the
means the quality of the sugar was
greatly improved says Philadelphia
Press.
1t has been an important article of
commerce, but Cuba and Java produced
the greatest quantity of cane sugar,
owing to the fertility of the soil and
the salubrity of the climate, and but
little was raised, comparatively speak
ing, by the rest of the world About
1747, however, an astonishing state
ment was made to the Berlin Academy
of Sciences by Herr Margrave, who an
nounced that sugar could be produced
from beets, and prophesied that this
would become the basis of a great in
dustry, and about 1897 Archard solved
the problem of its production and a
number of beet sugar factories were es-
tablished, and from this small begin
ming it grew, until last year the United
States produced of beet sugar alone
over $4,000 tons, while the production
of cane sugar for the same time was
100000 tons, of which Louisiana pro-
duced 100000 tons, Porto Rico 900
tons, Hawaii AIS, 900 tons and the Phil
ippines 100000 tons. Germany, Aus
tria and Russia excel in beet sugar pro-
duction, and the total world IS produc-
ton of beet sugar in 1909 was 6,775 900
tons, while the production of sugar
from cane totaled 7,935,0OO tons. The
total amount of sugar used in the
United States in the calendar year 1908
showed a per capita consumption of
SLY pounds.
Truly the American people are a
"sweet-toothed community. There is
a wide field for the manufacture of
sugar in the United States, as new ave-
nues for its use are being opened year
by year, and it is to be hoped that its
cultivation in the sections adapted to
its culture will be extended until we
raise enough to supply our own people,
of which quantity we fell short in 1908
sugar growing, both cane and beet,
about 1,5S1,000 tons.

QUAKEAT SALT LAKE
EARTH ROCKED The UTAH
CITY SUNDAYiMORNING
Last About Half Minute and Much
Damage Was Done to Property-Kan.
sas Professor Said 1t Appeared 1000
Miles Distant and Similar to the
Costa Rica Quake.

Salt Lake, Utah, May 22.-The Sun.
day morning slumber of this city and
immediate vicinity was disturbed by a
violent rocking of the earth, which
lasted apparently about two seconds, al
though the seismograph at the state
university recorded disturbance of 80
seconds.
The earthquake was quite sharp and
caused considerable damage to crockery
chimneys and old adobe houses.
The tremor was local in extent, being
confined within a radius of so miles.
Slight damage is reported from the
towns of Bingham and Garfield. The
shock occurred at 1928 a. M, and was
followed by two other shocks, one at
1888 a. m. and the other at 1924. Both
were barely perceptible.
Local scientists say that the shock
was caused by the slipping of a great
fault scarp at the base of the Wasatch
mountains, east of the city.

BLAZE IN TAMMANY HALL
FAMOUS DEMOCRATIC STRONG
 HOLD IS NEARLY RUINED.
Historic Wlgwsm in New York Dam- aged $2500o by Fire That
 Followed a Ball.

New York, Dec. 13-Tammany Hall, the "wigwam" home of the famous po- litical organization, was partly de- stroyed by fire. It was feared that the blaze would spread to nearby buildings, including the old Academy of Music, the Olympic Music hall and the Central hotel. However, the flames were confined to the interior of Tam many hall itself.
 Torrents of water were poured into the big structure and the greater part of the $25,000 damage was caused by this deluge. IL took two hours to get the blaze under control and this task was not accomplished until the fire had eaten it's way down from the gal lery to the lower floor.
 A dance was given a few hours be- fore by a social club in the ballroom of the hall and it is supposed that a lighted cigar or cigarette, left in one of the boxes in the gallery, started the fire.

THE FARM CENSUS.

Beginning April - Uncle Sans
census enumerators will not only count
the noses of 100000 or more people
Of the country, but they will want an
inventory Of the stuff on every farm
Of the country. Among other things
the enumerators will want to find out
will be: a. Total value of farm, with
all buildings and improvements; (2
value of all buildings; 90 value of all
implements and machinery, including
tools. wagons, carriages. harnesses
ETC., and all appliance and apparatus
used in farming operations; ca num-
Der and value of domestic animals,
including cattle. horses, mules. swine
and sheep. classified by sex and the
year in which they were born; Co
number and value of the several va
rieties of poultry over three months
old; Co number and value of swarms
of bees. In estimating the value of
the several items listed the farmer
should be guided by the prices which
would prevail were the stuff offered
for sale. If an inventory of the above
character is made out by every land
owner in advance it would not only
save the enumeration and himself time
at the busiest season Of the year, but
such record would prove very valu-
able for reference on later occasions.
Instructions which have been prepar'
ed for the enumerators state that each
operator must confine his report Of
acreage and yield of crops to land
which he is working at the time of the
enumerator's visit. Should he be on
farm which he did not work the pre-
vious year he should secure record
Of the place from the man who did
handle it.
