"Sugar manufacture Is also undergoing a tremendous change,

the form of beet sugar; and this latter had hardly got going good
nrn and nther nonrces anneared to enliven the
UC&UIV BHI
situation. Western Canada has Just
in the mill bv-nroducts which can be
up a great live stock industry. The innovation has become so inter
eating that British Columbia proposes to snbsidize the new industry,
all of which brightens the prospect that sugar mills all over the west
ern provinces will provide Canada with a permanent Klondike.
"In the 'meantime the bureau of standards at Washington holds
forth hope of sugar from native artichokes at two cents a pound.
These artichokes are not the fancy kind that are a table luxury, but
are weeds of the aster family. The sugar from this plant has several
times the sweetening power of the present product. Present experi
ments Indicate the possibility of our getting artichoke sugar within
four or five years. Sueh a development, if .realised, would be revolu
tionary for the artichoke is not so easily perishable as beets and
ugar cane. which means that the mills using artichokes could save
millions by operating on the basis of a much longer season."
The two paragraphs quoted above are from the current
Issue of the Saturday Evening Post
. And-thereia nothing new. in them to Statesman readers,
excepting the announcement that British Columbia proposes
to subsidize the beet sugar industry. That is wise. Ireland
Hops this; It is done by. the British government for England,
. Scotland and Wales, and it is
to make the British Empire self contained as to sugar.
'The Post' article is not entirely correct as to the three
kinds of sugar, counting cane and beet sugar as one, for they
are the same thing chemically; As Statesman readers know,
i taking sucrose (beet or cane sugar) at 100, levulose, (arti-
choke sugar) is .173.3 sweet, and dextrose (corn sugar) is
7U3 sweet " -.
: ;And it will not be long until all three kinds of sugar will

out the world, and each looking like the other, for they can be
fend will all three be granulated
i , .There will be little difference in them except as to their
sweetening power. The little difference will be as to the
different :"dietaryJvalue of each.
:J Butrartichoke sugar will go well with beet sugar, for it
will be made In the same factories, with slight changes. in
machinery and appliances.
... The"Salem district will one day be making all three kinds
nf smear, for we can nroduce the sugar beets, the artichokes
and the corn-
' But, in the point of by-products, for this district, beet
'sugar will be the most valuable. The tops and the pulp and.
the molasses will be used for stock feed. And then this valley
will come into its own as the

IMPOSSIBLE TO BANISH GOD FROM THE MIND OF
1 THE HUMAN RACE '
A writer in Collier's Weekly says an organization has
recently been formed in this cpuntry which avows : . "The
object of this society is to abolish belief in God, together with
all forms of religion based upon that belief -.
, And the same writer says : , "The magazine published, as
the official organ of thie association announces as its program
the conversion to atheism of as many children as possible.
The leading editorial urges subscribers to distribute bundles
of the publication, -so as to help the magazine to 'find new
friends and readers and at the same time get your children
interested in doing propaganda work for atheism and evolu
tion i - -
"The implication that atheism and evolution are neces
sarily corollaries, the one of the other,' may be passed by
without argument a3 one of the minor manifestations of a
confused mentality.
- "The attempt to convert all the children of the land to
atheism a campaign against children largely conducted , by
childrjentis a conception f tJnged with , grotesquerie. .No
immediate alarm need be felt' concerning its results.
- "But here is a thought: ,
: "Suppose this, little group of serious atheistical thinkers
really were . able to put their idea across, thoroughly and
completely. Suppose they got control, for a generation;" of all
the machinery of government, all the machinery of publicity,
all the apparatus of education, all the media for the com
munication of thought '
"And suppose, in sixty, or eighty, or a hundred years from
now, the country were populated with 200,000,000 people
who had never even heard of God
"Could the 'cause of atheism consider that it had scored
a conclusive and permanent victory ?
"No. We don't wish to bruise the heart of any young
atheistical prophet to such ah extent that he will go out into
the back yard of the universe and eat cosmic angle worms;
but the answer is, No. f
''The idea of God, in one form or another, comes back to
the human mind as spontaneously and neces'sarily as the airf

This is the important question

COLLEGE STATION, Texas.
(AP)-The discovery of an Igu
ana tuberculata, or giant lizard on
the plans at the edge of the Texas
Panhaandle, far from' its native
tropical jungle has provided sci
entists at Texas Agricultural &
Mechanical college -here with' an
interesting theme for speculation.
The" ' reptile, nearly four feet
long, was caugnc on a road -near
Childress and sent to the depart

small ones would do just as well.
So he brought two. Daddy scold
ed a bit, and Mrs. Ground Hog
boxed his small ears until he went
off and had a good cry.
.Then daddy said: "Jimmy it is
time you made a tsnnel for your
self. You are a big boy now and
must learn how to make a tunnel
and build a home for yourself."
Jimmy did not like the idea, but
se set about the task as daddy
showed him. Bat his idea of do
ing things his own way showed
itself again.. Daddy had told him
to dig his tunnel on slight rise
so the water would not run into
it. But Jimmy thought he knew
best and made it go down a little
as he went into the bankT He said
it was easier. Daddy tried to tell
him, but he knew best. a
One day there came a heavy
rain and the creek came up high
er than usual, and Jimmy's home
was flooded. He was caught in
it and nearly drowned. His bome
was spoiled and he had to dig It
all over again, and did it Just as
daddy Ground Hog told him the
next time.
.- Winter came and the ground
hog" family, went into winter
quarters. All the long weeks they
waited until spring should come.
Then one day the sun came out
and it looked warm. Jimmy want

was not satisfied. He thought he
could adjust the plough to work
better and easier. So he set it
the way he though it was sure
to work better. After a while his
father came bac4 He noticed that
Alfred had changed the plough,
and asked why he did it. , Alfred
said that was the way it should
be. Mr.-Farmer .said, "No, Al
fred, that ia not right. Let me
set them back." He did so and
then went a-way againv As soon
as he was gone Alfred changed it
hack-once more to his own idea.
I wonder if that is not the way
with a. good many men today.
They think they know more than
their employers, or bosses, or
teacher. It sometimes takes a
bitter experience to - teach . men
that their, own way Is not better
than what they,, have been in
structed. Perhaps there was noth
ing wrong with Alfred's plough
ing. He did the work,-but he was
not quite obedient to his father,
not doing it the way he was told.
It is obedience in the little this
that counts., for so much in our.
lives if we would be successful.
It was so with Jimmy and also
with Alfred.

One day Jimmy's daddy said:
"Look out Jimmy, don't go too
far away from your tunnel, for
there is a big dog running
around. Jimmy thought he knew
what he was doing - and sure

the end of Jimmy.
