SUGAs.

OF AL the staple food comHoo9aes
suEarfts relatively highest IN price
and most difficult to obtain Ana
sugar is one Of the commonest thing
In nature. In the form of a COM
sn~aratively simple solution it exists IN
the juices Of practically all plants,
and In other and less tractable forms
it exists almost everywhere.
Commercial sugar is obtained
chiefly from the sugar cane and the
sugar beet. Considerable quantities
are obtained from the sap Of various,
trees especially the maple. But n
sap of most trees contains perceptl-
bic Quantities Of sugar. The sap OF
the box elder, one of u commonest
northwestern trees. contains sugar
enough to make the preparation OF
syrup, and even of sugar, from it an
entirely feasible operation where
rough fuel is plentiful and time can
be spared for the work.
The sugar cane Is a southern prod
uct, and cannot be cultivated sue
cessfully in the north. Sorghum. an
allied plant, will grow in any good
corn climate, and it yields album
dainty a syrup which is very accepta-
BILE for domestic purposes.
The sugar beet ripens we'll in the
latitude of Grand Forks. Germany
long since made a success of the pro-
duedop of beet sugar. Colorado pro-
duces large quantities of this sugar
Beet sugar factories are dotted all
over the north, and especially
through the western states. Good
sugar beets can be grown around
Grand Forks. There has beef dis
cussion Of the feasibility of starting
a sugar factory here. The question
is not n of possibility, but Of cost,
and, as a sugar plant is a rather cost
~ thing, that question requires a
full investigation.
Aside from the natural juices,
sugar can be made from almost my
thing. It can be made from grain,
sawdust, bones, and old shoes. Prac-
tically anything that VIII burn can be
turned into susxr of one sort or
another.
Tho sugar shortage has started a
movement which seems likely to
hGvs q Married effect on the whole
sugar situation in the future. Atten-
ton has been given to possibilities
4 which wero neglected while there
seemed TO eHiSt no special need for
theh application. The production Of
best sugar seems likely to be greatly
EXTENDED. And there are now being
manufactured and used commercially
syrups Of various kinds which take
the plaos Of ordinary sugar in q very
satisfactory way. Some bakers have
dtBcafdsd tho use OF ordinary sugar
entirely. and are using a corn syrup
which Is said to give excellent satis-
faction. The extension Of this use
must dtminizh the demand for the or
binary sugars, and this, aside from
4 all ether causes, will tend to correct
the price.
II Is moro than likely that when
this present shortage is over We shall
find that granulated sugar has sev-
eral new and permanent competitors
for popular favor.

Washington, Aug. 6-Speeding up of the coal movement te the North = west sufficiently to enable delivery or 2o,oO0,0o0 tons by November was forecast today by officials Of the Ah- terstate Commerce Commission as a result of the return to normal Work- ing conditions of bituminous mines in the central competitive fields.

 Plenty of cars have been available, officials of the commission said, but because of strikes in Illinois and tn- diana production has been insufficient to maintain daily movement of 4,o66 cars.
