CULTURE OF
As Sugar Is Made In Fields, and
Important Requirement
Henry W. Diodorich, United State
consul at Magdeburg, Germany, sends
the following repott to the state depart'
merit. The report will prove of inter
est and value to the farmers of the
Northwest, who are just taking up the
Industry. Mr. Dledrich says
The results of the war with Spain are
bound to effect changes In various (11 roc
tions that no one could have foreseen
at the beginning of this year. Hot the
least Important is the bearing thoy will
undoubtedly have on the sugar industry
in Germany and in the United States,
An enoromus Increase In the production
of sugar in tha islands of Cuba, Puerto
Rioo, tha Philippines and Hawaii ia
probable in tne near future. With
ooolie and Chinese labor in the Orient
and in the Pacific, with the stimulus of
American energy and capital in the
West Indies, and with the more or lees
Intricate bounties of Europe, the sugar
question has become a very complicated
one. .
Though the outlook oi the young
beet-sugar industry in the United
States is not so promising as it was
year ago, it is much too early to be
come discouraged. While it may be
advisable for those planning to start
new plants to make haste slowly, yet
the good work already begun should
continue. Especially should the work
ot locating the areas Id the United
States suitable for the oulture of the
sugar-beet be continued, as this can be
done withont risk or loss of money, the
sugar beets being oapable of utilisation
as feed. In reading the reports of our
experiment stations in various states.
both as to yield of sugar-beets and also
as to their sacoharine qualities, one
cannot but admire the wonderful prog.
ress made in this new industry within
a lew years, and to congratulate our
people engaged in it upon their suocess.
Sugar is made, not In the sugar fac
tories, but out in the fields. Therefore
it ia impossible to pay too much atten
tion to the cultivation of beets con
tainlng the highest , proportions of
lugar, and, at the same time, with tne
largest tonnage per acre. In order to
produoe such, the selection of suitable
soil, the climate, the rainfall, and
length of season, the fertilizing, plant
ing, cultivating and harvesting all
these arc very important factors. But
the most important of all ; ia to start
out with the best seed obtainable; for
good seed, after all, is the foundation
of successful sugar industry. If I may
express an opinion, based on my per
sonal observation, it is that some ot our
beet growers should insist more than
they have upon getting none but the
best of seed, no matter what the price
may be.
I will not enter upon the history of
the origin and development of the beet
seed. Nor will I dwell upon the dif
ferent varieties and their merits. I
have had occasion to visit several of
the celebrated German stock farms,
where they produoe seed that is sold to
all sugar-producing' countries of the
world. With the accumulated knowl
edge and experience of a century of in
vestigation, with an investment of
enormous capital, and with a vast
amount of science and skill, energy,
and labor, their methods of producing
a pure and high-grade seed are as per
fect and successful as are those em-
Eloyed in the raising of fine breeds of
OT8.es and cattle. j
The high-grade seed grown in this
country Is now in the lead everywhere.
Even France is -beginning to import
German beet seed, thereby conceding
its superiority. I know that one Ger
man firm alone shipped 80,000 sacks of
Seed to France, I feel safe in saying
that altogether not less than 100,000
sacks ot German beet seed were bought
by Frenchmen last season, in spite of
the SO francs ($5.97) oastoms datv
which they had to pay on every 100
kilograms (230 pounds). 1 am in
formed that most Of these orders have
beefi duplicated for next season, and the
amounts in many cases doubled and

SUGAR-B
ETS
Not in Factories, Good Seed Is an
German Consul's Report.
troMod; all of which shows olonrly that
even France now prefers Goiratin beet
seed, and I am not at all surprised to
loam that there is a movement on toot
in that country to increase the tariff on
imported seed.
The first-olass sugar factories of Eu
rope buy none but the very best seed,
grown ; from high-grade Individual
"mother" beets, to distribute among
the beat growers; thus not only mam
tainlng the standard of their sugar
beets as to quality and quantity, but
also putting themselves in position
to compote in all the markets of the
world. This first-class seed is sold and
delivered by tho growers on board cart
in the Prussian province of Saxony, at
from 8 to 10 cents per pound, which ia
a modorate price, considering the fact
that it takes at least four years to get
it into the market.
There is also a second-class seed
offered for sale in this country, at from
S to 8 cents per pound. , This is com
monly called tho ".Naoliaaohtsamen,"
being a seed produced not from the
mother beets, but from the first first-
class seed mentioned above. This in
ferior grade, however, is not used by
first-class sugar men in Germany,
France, Holland and Belgium, but
most of it goes to Austria, Russia and
the United States. And this ia the
reason why I deem it my duty to call
attention to the importance ot getting
only the very best of seed obtainable.
In my opinion, those American growers
of sugar-beets who buy cheap grades of
seed, make a great mistake. All kinds
of seed have a natural tendenoy to
degenerate. Even the first-class beet
seed mentioned above will not bring
forth beets that come np to the stand
ard of the original or mother beet, but
will show a loss of K to 1 per cent
of sugar; content. Now, the second
generation of seed will degenerate
more than as moon again, and lose
from 1 per cent to 3 per cent. This is
a small amount when considered by it
self, yet it is sufficient not only to torn
tne pronts of a sugar lactory into a
loss, but even to drive the concern to
the wall. .- .
To illustrate this: Factory A slices
60,000 tons (short) of beets, which
would yield about an average, of 18,5
per cent sugar in tha extraction. After
deduoting the sugar left in the molasses
and in other waste, this would leave
about IS per cent -8,600 tons of pure
granulated, marketable sugar, which at
1 50 a ton would net (326,000,
Factory R slices the same amount ot
beets, grown from second-class seed,
which, at a fair average, have about 1.8
per eent less of sngar in the extraction
After tins material has also gone
through the process of refining, there
will be 11.7. per cent 6,860 tons of
marketable sugar, which at f 50 a ton
would net $393,600.
It will be seen at a glance that while
both factories use the same amount of
material, and have the same expenses
for labor, fuel, eta, there is it differ
ence in the gross receipts for manufac
tured sugar amounting to 33,600.
factory A bought 66 tons of first
class seed, at $180 per ton, ,$9,900;
factory B bought 66 tons of second'
class seed, at $120 per ton, $8,600. It
will be seen that factory B Wanted to
buy "cheap" and to make money fast.
It did, indeed, save $3,800 at the start;
but factory A began by planting the
very best seed obtainable, and came out
at the end of the season with $39,300
cash ahead of its competitor, and was
in the position of declaring a handsome
dividend,
Like so many other things in life,
the cheapest beet seed are the dearest.
It pay to get the very best, and only
the very best is good enough. Let the
good work ot experimenting in the field
ot sugar-beet culture continue, in order
to learn exactly what we can do in the
face of fierce and growing competition,
but let American growers determine got
only to try different varieties of seed,
bnt also to plant none but seed of high
grade and pure pedigree.

Kight Were Lost.
Kocncster, a. x uot. 29. A spe
cial to the Herald from Sodus Says:
The three-masted schooner St. Peter,
of St. Vincent, sank this afternoon
about five miles northwest of Sodus,
on Lake Ontario, with all on board
save Captain John D. Griffith, who
was rescued in a precarious condition.
The captain's wife was lost, also Mate
McLaren, of Kingston. Eight persons,
at least, perished.
It is thought the St. Peter lost her
rudder and that the heavy seas caused
her to spring a leak. ' The vessel was
bound from Oswego to Toledo with 700
tons of coal.

bunches ot grapes, handling them as

they are perfectly dry. Remove anv

bunch in a paper bag. Tianpeuoh bag
and then place In a shallow box In a
