when the place got too hot for him.
AS card player he II we'll known and
avoided. He has been in low water
lately. So has his dupe, Carstairs, as
now discover. Lord Wintone. the
young mans brother. set him up as a
coffee planter In Ceylon, but he spent
all the money given him and re-
turned six months ago. Carstairs was
a distant connection of Mrs. Taubery's
and both she and her husband had
been very kind to him. He was al
ways loafing about the house, getting
free meals and now and then borrow
ing a flyer. He must have heard OF
the new diamond and mentioned 1t to
Steadman; for Steadman Matched the
plot--there Is no doubt about that.
Carstairs was merely dupe and a
foolish, vicious dupe at that-he never
had the ability to rise higher in crime.
How the two became acquainted l do
not know; but they have been seen
together several times lately You
may take my word for 1t, that tho
public will be well rid OF them for O

PLANT THAT IMPROVES SOIL.
The Sugar Beet Increases Yield Of
Other Crops.

How sugar beets improve the fertil-
ity of the soil and increase the yield of
all crops grown in rotation with them
il explained in the Natiopal Magazine
by Truman &. Palmer, who has spent
the past ten years in studying agricul-
tural methods in Europe and America.
'The sugar beet being deep rooter,"
says Mr. Palmer. "a prerequisite to its
culture is that the soil be stirred to q
depth of ten to fourteen inches. The
tender beetlet having to undergo the
shock of thinning soon after 1t comes
up In order to leave but one beet to a
place, 1t demands we'll prepared, mel
low seed bed. Gathering the sugar in
its leaves from the atmosphere by the
aid Of the light and storing it up I'm the
roots. it Will not thrive If the light Is
cut off through being shaded by weeds.
and their eradication means not only n
further stirring of the soil by cultiva-
ton and hoeing. but they are removed
before going to seed. thus leaving
NEEDLESS fields for succeeding crops.
BeinS plOWeu out III autumn gives an
extra fall blowing. which leaves the
land in condition to absorb instead of
shed the fall and winter rains and store
up the moisture for the following sea
sons crop. With the removal Of the
main root myriads of fibrous roots are
broken off and left in the soil to an
average Of ton to the acre. and in
rotting they not only deposit humus In
the lower strata of soil. but leave mi
mute channels through which ii be-
comes aeratcd and hence fertile. The
roots of subsequent crops follow these
interstices and draw nutriment from
two and three times the depth Of soil
formerly reached, and hence the farm
ers double and treble their soil output
without increasing their acreage"

GROWING In Kind.

An agricultural expert, who had
been invited to address state grange,

farmer, plain, uncultured man. found
fault.
After some discussion, in which the
sense Of the meeting was clearly with
the farmer, the expert lost his tenn
per.

ing to speak coolly, do you realize
that I have been at two universities,
one in this country and one in Ger

Beet Pulp as Cattle Food.

In summarizing the important fea-
lures of sugar beet growing in various
parts of the country the Department
OF Agriculture calls attention to It's
peculiar Importance to the middle
western states because Of the extent
20 which stock feeding Is followed as
an industry in this territory. Beet
pulp-that is. what remains Of the
beet after the sugar has been extract
ed-has been proved to be the finest
feed yet discovered for milk cows
and for fattenlng cattle, sheep apd
other farm animals. This is true
whether the pulp Is fed in. its wet
state as Il comes from the factory or
after being dried. A business of about
100000 year has grown up In the
sale of dried beet pulp. in which form
II can be shipped TO any distance.

HOW IT WORKED IN OHIO.
PauIdins Banker Shows How Sugar
Beet Culture Increased Property.

Beet Culture Increased Property.
That the establishment of the sugar
beet industry in Ohio will result in an
increase of $2O,00OO0O in the value of
farm lands in the state by the end of
the present year is the statement OF G.
Ii. Allen. a banker of Paulding, o.
Ohio and Indiana should become as
great producers of sugar as Michigan"
said Mr.. Allen. ''and they will unless
hostile legislation by congress inter-
feres with the natural development of
this industry. In Paulding county
alone, although the beet sugar factory
here has been in operation only two
years. the value of farm property has
increased $5.000,O00 as Il result of the
introduction of sugar beet culture. An
other result has been the investment of
$5.O00000 or more In other beet sugar
factories in this section of the state
within the past year, which in turn
will vastly increase the value of the
S20,00OO0O or more to the agricultural
wealth or this region.
aside from the direct financial re-
turns that have followed the estab-
lishment Of the sugar beet industry in
Ohio, there are numerous other benefits
which. though not so direct. are no
less important To obtain good results
from beet culture farmers have found
it necessary to put more hand labor
on the land. The result Is that thou
sands of men. women and children
are being taken from the overcrowd-
ell sections of the cities Of the state
and set to work on the land. q back to
the farm movement that is of real
practical value.
This increased tillage Of the soil is
the very best-and. in fact, the only
effective-means of overcoming the
weeds that are the chronic enemies Of
the farmer. choking his crops and ex-
hausting his soil Besides all this, we
have found that every other crop rails
ed upon land that has been put into
sugar beets shows greatly increased
yield.
upon n piece OF land that had been
in beets the previous season l myself
raised seventy bushels Of oats to the
acre, while across the fence one of my
neighbOrs, on exactly the same kind of
land. got yield Of not quite fifty. Last
year on another piece of land that had
been used for sugar beets l grew fifty
bushels Of wheat to the acre where the
ordinary crop is between twenty-five
and twenty-five bushels. Farmers have
learned so well that sugar land in
creases the yield Of oats that when they
are In conversation among themselves
and one reports yield Of from seventy
TO ninety bushels an acre the other will
reply: You have raised 1t on sugar
beet land That accounts for it.
This year there will be taken from
Ohio cities to the country to work In
the beet fields over 5000 people, and
yet this industry Is only beginning in
the state. Ohio ought to have twenty
five beet sugar factories, and Indiana,
equally favorably located and with land
peculiarly fitted to this crop, should
have IN equal number"
