SOLVING PROBLEMS-LET SCIENCE
DO 1T

Gradually the ancient superstition that
material and moral progress is to be
attained by ~enacting more laws is los
ing caste. AS evidences of the f~utility
of legislation tt make people prosper
Gus and happy constantly multiply, our
minds more willingly turn in other
directions. On every hand are seen the
the follies Of i'll advised enactments. In
fact most OF the worthwhile work Of
state legislatures and congress is the
undoing of the blunders of the past
the repeal of serious modification of
laws. As to matters in the realm Of
morals, We know, on second thought,
that the men we elect to office or just
human like all the others.
A great deal of talk about punishment
of prodteers is merely wasted wind.
1t is doubtful whether a law that will
prevent profiteering would not seriously
interfere with practically all business
and in tn end do more harm than good.
However, science hnrries to our aid and
beats the ugar profteers, just as it
has beaten other gougers of the public by
spoiling their game. The news comes
that chemists have found a way TO man.
ufacture white sugar from corn at a
cost Of not TO exceed four cents a pound.
The manufacture of corn sugar is COW
under way in some plants, and in an
other year we may expect sugar on the re-
tail market at moi to exceed 8 cents a
pound This sugar has a sweet content
Of about 80 percent of hat of cane SUI

This is not all chemistry has done for

County Agents Notes

Sulphate Of potash should be used
on potatoes, they are smoother than
when potash salts containing chlorine
is use; tobacco is liable to lower the
starch content of Irish and sweet po-
tatoes, hinders capitalization of the
sugar in sugar beets, no doubt due to
its burning qualities.
For cut worm use the Kansas mix
ture. If the planting is large, it can
be made as follows: A-Bran 20
pounds, cottonseed meal or any equiv
alent, 81 pounds, Paris Green pound.
B-Water 21a gallons, molasses or
