'Education engenders freedom"
says f.. O. Sisson, of the University of
Montana, in a recent article in School
and Society; 1T cultivates the power
and habit of thinking on all questions
and thinking to the end; it fosters the
ambition to plan and execute ones
own career and participate freely in
the common life of man. Only u
democracy dare educate; and even
democracy democracics are yet far
short of the courage of their conyic-
tions."

Tracing History Of Sugar Cane.

So far as known, sugar cane was
first cultivated IN India, and was In
troduced from that country into the
valley OF the Eupmates, Arabia, Egypt
and Spain. Columbus on his second
voyage IN 1880 brought It into the new
world, where It was destined TO be-
come one of the most important crops.
The first sugar exported to Europe,
according TO contributor to the
Scientific American, was grown on
the plantations established by COrtez
In Mexico, The soil and climate of
Cuba are peculiarly adapted to the
cultivation of sugar cane aud II has
been grown on that island In great
quantities. The first plantations In
Louisiana were failure, but the pur-
pie variety of cane has been found to
grow well there and also In other parts
of the southern United States.
