Early History of Sugar.

Sugar has modified the history of
Europe and of the world in more
ways than one." says a writer. Used
four centuries ago, almost exclusively
in the preparation of medicines, and
long afterward an article of luxury
only accessible to the rich, it has by
enlarged production and cheapened
manufacture been brought within the
reach of all. The universal use of
this practically pure carbohydrate,
which is not only freely burning
fuel and proteid sparer but muscle
food, increasing the power of doing
work and lessening fatigue, must
have had widespread and beneficial
effects on the general health. Els,
pecially in the case of children, whose
greed of sugar is the expression of a
physiological want, has that food
been valuable in conducting to growth.

Truck Gardener UtiIizes Current in
Irrigating Farm Land.

Sheridan.-Growing garden truck
by electricity sounds strange, but
that is just what Walter A. Scott,
of Sheridan, is doing on his farm on
the main road across from Sheridan
district School No. z.
Mr.. Scott, few years ago, was
the first farmer-in Chautauqua coun-
ty to install system Of overh cad ir-
rigation which attrated much atten-
ton at the time and has been copied
by numbers of other growers, and he
has now adopted another advanced
scheme for making the most of the
splendid truck farm Of which he is
the proprietor, in installing an cleo
trio system for forcing growth of
plans.
His irrigation spstem covers seven
acres of gravelly loan land and the
new electrical system has been in
stalled in connection with three acres
of the same tract. The electrical cur
rent has been turned on for about two
weeks and Mr. Scott is confident that
he already sees results in the more
rapid growth of tomato and Other
plants under this treatment than else
where on his farm.
