VERMONT OPINION
COL. GREENE ON EDUCATloN.

NOl-. GIEE-NE O-N EDO IA II lO-H.
Rutland News.
The plea of Congressman Frank l..
Greene for higher education, in hi, ad
dress before the graduates of the Rut-
land high school Friday, should enlist
the thoughtful attention Of every boy
and girl who heard him. Whether the
shop, the Office or the farm finds to-
morrow the youth of today, higher edu-
cation in its best sense will be a source
of infinite satisfaction to him. The
world and all of the hidden secrets of
nature will assume new interest and
mean much more. There will be no dull
moments for the farmer or the farm
er's wife, the mechanic or the me-
chanic's wife, if they are trained to
understand and appreciate the learning
Of the ages as recorded in books The
educated man or woman never com
plains of nothing to do or mo place
to go, no matter if they live in the
wilderness. The person who really
lives is the one who understands.

MAKING SUGAR AN ANCIENT AS WELL AS MODERN INDUSTRY. Over oo,oooooo Spent Annually in
 the United States For Candy and
 SWeekmeets Alone.

The world has had a sweet tooth'' Tor many ages People have been eat Ing sugar from time immemorial it woIld seem, and growing sugar cane IS an industry so old that it ante dates the Christian era by many cen turies- At least that is what we gath CT from an article by Edward Albes in the May number of the Monthly Bulletin of the Pan American Union, Washington, D. C., which gives a com pTehenSive account of the cane sugar Industry in the Americas, and inci- dentally embodies an interesting re- slme of what IS actually known of the history of the industry throughout the world from the very dawn of civil iZation to the present
 Scientists admit they do not know just where the sugar cane originated" he writes-'for nowhere has it been found in it's wild state. It has been a cultivated product for many centuries, and the first mention to be found in written records is in the sacred books of the Hindu. have crowned thee with shooting sugar cane, so that thou shalt nos be averse to me- was written many centuries before the Christian era In the train of Alex ander the Great during his Asiatic conqueStS were some ODservant per sons who made notes of what they saw, when not too busy killing off the inhabitants, and in these written doc uments- according to later writers who fell heir to them. is told the story of a reed growing in India which produces honey without bees Thus sugar cane was evidently well known in that country before 320 E. C.
 AS the manufactured product of the cane, the first kind of sugar of which mention is made was a con centrated cane juice called 'gur' in India Cgud' in Sanskrit), and this seems to have been known as a food from prehistoric times. That it's man. ufacture was a we'll established i'm dustry in India in the seventh cen tury is attested by the old Chinese encyclopedia, the Peu-tsao-kang which states that the Emperor Tai tsung, who reigned from 627 to $50 A. D., sent some of his people to Behar to learn the art of sugar mak- ing The manufacture of sugar even in the early centuries of the Christian era was not restricted to the mere evaporation of the juice sof the cane to dryIress, fer the Arabs and Egyp- tians had soon learned how to purify raw Sugar by recrystallization, and incldentally how to make a great vari- efy of sweetmeats, or candy, out of the product"
 The author tells of the introduction of the cane into Sicily by the Arabs in 7OS. whence it was taken to Africa,
Norwich bulletin., 1915-07-06

to Spain, and all along the coast of the Mediterranean Sea, as we'll as to the islands and borders of the Indian Ocean. The Crusaders found exten- sive sugar-cane plantations in Trip oli. Mesopotamia. Syria, Antioch, and Cyprus, and by the fourteenth century the cane was being cultivated in every part of the known world where soil and climate were propitious.
 It came to South America by being introduced into Brazil by the Portu- guese, who brought it from Madeira and thence it spread to nearly all the other countries of that continent Co., lumbus is said to have brought it to the island of Santo Domingo, whence it spread to Mexico and Cuba. It was introduced into the other islands of the West Indies as soon as they came under European domination. The first sugar cane came to Louisiana by be- ing sent to the Jesuits from Santo Domingo, in 1751, some English au- thorities giving the date as 1737.
 Although practically all of the coun- tries of the Pan American Union cuI- tivate the cane, Cuba is the greatest producer of cane sugar, not only in the western hemisphere but in the world. The total production of the western hemisphere for. the 1913-14 season amounted to 4.919,s14 tons, of which Cuba produced 2,597.732 tons. or nearly 52 per cent. The total cane
