strong land that is capable of growing
satisfactory row of beets every
twenty inches will soon pay for a beet
cultivator in the extra yield when COM
pared with the wider row in which a
corn cultivator could be used. Shall
low planting, one-half to three-fourths
of an inch, is advisable provided there
is moisture enough in the soil to pro-
duce termination.
At present practically all sugar beet
seed is planted in solid rows. AS soon
as the plants have developed from four
to six leaves. they must be spaced and
thinned, since they must stand one in
place at intervals of from eight to
twelve inches in the row in order to
produce beet roots satisfactory in
yield and quality.
The beets should receive a good hoe
ing at the time they are thinned the
earth loosened on all sides and weeds
carefully removed. The number of
subsequent hoeings will depend upon
local conditions. Cultivation should
begin just as soon as the rows can be
followed. 1t Is usually possible to cul-
tivate once before the spacing and
thinning are done A second should be
given as soon as they sAraighten up
after thinning. No fixed rule can be
laid down as to the number of culti-
vations that field should receive DUR
ing the season.
Operation Of Harvesting.
Harvesting sugar beets consists of
three distinct operations-li lifting, pull
ing and topping. The lifting is usu-
ally done either with a double-pointed
! implement somewhat resembling a
twO-pointed pillow, or by means of
| side litter, which is a small shoe or
pillow on the end of long shank. After
the beets are loosened they should be
thrown into piles. In knocking off the
earth from the beets care should be
taken not to brufse the roots unneces-
sarily. In topping, the beets should be
cut off squarely at the lowest leaf
scar. This is usually done with one
stroke of heavy knife.
The beets should then be covered to
prevent evaporation. The roots work
much better in the mill il they are
kept fresh and crisp, and they lose
considerable weight If exposed to the
sun and wind.

also conferred with directors of the

"The farm situation is more acute

in the fall are most favorable for the
storage of sugar in the beets. The
great danger from extreme cold in the
fall is that the beets may be frozen
in the ground. Growers should aim
to get their beets out of the ground
and delivered to the sugar company
or protected from the cold before
freezing weather sets in. If the roots
themselves freeze after they are har-
vested, no great damage will result,
provided they remain frozen until they
are worked through the mill, but If
they alternately freeze and thaw, they
will soon blacken, decay and become
eworthless for sugar-making purposes.

An oyster eighty years old has been
taken from Delaware bay, it is report

assert that the age of an oyster is in

indicated by the annual rings that
form on its trunk.
A ridge appears on an oyster every
year, according to these sayants, up TO
the fOrtieth year. After that the shell
takes on one only every ten years.

Into such a setting a famous son of Ferrara was born, the noted Savonarola. He forsworn the corrupt court life and like a prophet of the Old Testament went through the land preaching against wickedness and assuring Gods forgiveness for the penitent. Great crowds were charged with enthusiasm by the power of his oratory; the people changed their way of life, simple garb was assumed by thousands. and monarchs were over thrown.
 So powerful did Savonarola be- come that enemies plotted his death. Finally he and two of his followers were tried by jury of their enemies, condemned to death, hanged, and their bodies burned.

 Warsaw, Nov. e.-The Polish gov- ernment, which is not well off dnan- cially. Is constantly confronted with the serious problem of keeping the government employees content with their pay. but apparently meets with little success in this respect. The sudden drop of the Polish mark re- gently and the consequent rise in prices placed the government em- ployes in an embarrassing situation and a general strike among them was threatened. Several of the leaders were dismissed.
 The government is making an effort to imprive the lot of the civil servant by appealing to the rich industrial ists. Owners of coal mines and tex tile factories are to be called upon to supply coal and warm clothing to gov- ernment employees free during the winter.
