uIrriNc THE FARMER.

The beet sugar factories in Col
orado have reduced the price Oh
sugar beets q dollar a ton in con-
seguence of the new tariff, says me
SIavton Gazette. This makes quite a
loss TO the farmers who raise sugar
heets AS there is but one such
factory in Minnesota the loss Will not
be so great, but it will discourage
the raising of sugar beets and for a
time at least will put a stop to the
talk or building any more beet sugar
factories in this state. AS beets can
be raised in paying quantities IN
this section they could become a
having crop and add to the diver
sity in farming. The recent change
in the tariff will not prevent the
ultimate manufacture of sugar in THIS
part of the country Our country is
too productive, too insistent and too
enterprising for that, but this tariii
will delay the development of this
and kindred enterprises. How long
the delay will be remains to be seen.
but as free sugar does not go INTO
effect for a year or two 1t VIII be
several years before much advance
will be made in the beet sugar in
dustry. An immediate bad feature OF
il is the checking of the rapid adj
vance made in the manufacture OF
beet sugar in the past few years. Be
cause of the new tariff act, Mankato
has lost a beet sugar factory.

~ being in a mood Of detection. Mr..
Lack said that he would have re-
fused to sell him the poison,
Whiskey and Arsenic.
The previous dose OF poison taken
by Green was whiskey in which
there was heavy white sediment.
This was said TO be rat poison. Dr.
J. w. Andrews who attended the
case, treated Green for arsenic and
as the treatment was most success.
FIJI it was probably that substance.
When this bottle was shaken, the
sediment refused to dissolve and as
arsenic is very insolub!o in this
liquid, it is another proof in favor
OF the arsenic theory
In addition to the ether dug
stores that Green visited in his
search for poison he visited the
stores OF Frank Thomas and Ed
Lamm, but was denied the poison in
both CT these places.
