BOTH SUGAR and COFFEE
IN PLACE ON AEROPLANE
Americas GrOCGrS See No Fin.
iSh in the Advance

Americas sugar and coffee drinkers
will have to take syrup in theirs
in lieu of sugar, if the price of sugar,
already above the roof, continues %
go higher. Already it is higher than
in a quarter century, and growers
here do not know when the advance
will cease.
At current prices dollar buys about
enough sugar for the morning coffee
the dinner pie and the ice tea at sup
per. Next day another dollar must
be spent,
And coffee, too, is putting on wings
for a high flight.
The Brazilian berry now costs fifteen
cents a pound wholesale as against
seven cents a short time ago.
The increase cost of coffee is due
to the action of the Brazilian govern
ment in placing an arbitrary value
upon it's principal product instead OF
the economic value based on the cost
of production and the demand.
A shortage of the beet sugar CROP
in Germany and the cane crop Of the
southern part of the United States
combined with a heavy remand for
sugar for canning purposes, is respon
sible for the great increase in the cost
of that article.

Wonderful Richness Of the Drained
 Wet Lands of Louisiana

An imitation Holland is being pro- duced in Louisiana where the recla- nation of wet lands has brought to light the boundIess productiveness of the rich deposit soil of which these lands consist
 While the great southern part of the state has always been occupied by large sugar and cotton planta- tions. each has been carrying count less acres of uncultivated wet lands. In addition. says Moody's Magazine. millions of acres were owned by the state
 The new movement is dividing all this land into parcel tracts which will mark an era of small farms. Some idea of the wealth which the new era of diversified agriculture is bringing to Louisiana may be esti- mated from the increase of the corn crop.
 The corn crop of 1902 was valued at less than s5.OOO.O0O; in 1910 il will be worth approximately 65.0O0. 900. and in 1911 will probably reach sl0O. 0O0.000 Peanuts.

TEACHERS MAY MARRY.

The women school teachers in New Jersey have organized the Teachers Relief society. the object being to se- cure legislation which will permit women school teachers to marry and still retain their positions. Mrs. l.. Oliphant. who is at the head of the movement. is a teacher with twenty five years experience, and she calls attention to the fact that there are many school teachers who would marry if they could retain their posi- tions. but who hesitate to do so be cause they fear their husbands could not support them properly. The school board declares that if teachers con tinue their work after marriage they will be too much engrossed with their household affairs. Mrs. Oliphant re- plies by saving that the married teacher can afford to employ help for her household duties and that the very fact that she is settled in her own home will make her more inter ested in her school work. In these days of high prices of living she says that many women and men can mol marry unless both can retain theil positions as wage earners She con cludes her arguments by saying: '1 is a shame to prevent women teachers from marrying. taking it from any point of view"
