From the boy with sparkling eyes,
Bearing home his earliest prize ;
From the bronzed and bearded son,
Perils past and honors won :

Burdened with a lonely task,
One day we may vainly ask
For the comtort of her face,
For the rest of her embrace ;
Let us love her while we may,
Well for us that we can say :

At the post of duty stands ;

800,000 tons and import in the
beet sugar countries six pounds
or more ef sugar for every pound
we produce. Whatis more, the
cane sugar production of the
Tnited States cannot be greatly
extended owing to the fact that
about all the cane sugar produc
ing territory is now under cnulti-
yation. Even if we possessed
Cuba, we should stili have to buy
as the largest crop yet produced
in that island did net exceed 1,-
100,000 tons. We should need
apother Cuba at this rate to sup~
ply our wants unless we could
wake two canes grow Where one
grows now.
If we wouildturn our attention
to the production of beet sugat

more than ove million of tons,
but while the United States pro-
duced, in 1895, 290,000 tons of
cane sugar, only 30,000 tons of
beet sugar were produced. The
cane sugar area of the country is
fuliy occupied,but the been sugar
area has scarcely been entered
upon atall, The 4,239,000 tone of
beet sugar produced in 1895 were
grown. in Germany, Austria,
France, Russia, Belgium, Hol--
land and Sweeden and a few
smaller European countries, and
yet in none of these are the con-

grown in 1895, while a relatively
small amount compared with the
product of Germany and the oth-
er sugar-growing ocountries, is
sufficientto constitute a guarantee
of successful sugar culture when
the farmers of the country once
turn their attention to the caltiva-
tion of this staple. There are
now three beet sugar factories in
Jalifornia, one in Utah, two iu
Nebraska, one in New Mexico, a
emall one in Virginia and one just
established in Wisconsin. Within
this belt extending from the At-
lavtic to the Pacific beet culture is
~possible, and when the nine fac-
tories now in operation have
been increased in number tu twice
the 402 factories vow in opera-
tion in Germany, the greatest
beet sugar country in the world,
we shall only have reached the
capacity of supplying our OwD
wants in sugar.
There should be as much en-
terprise, ingenuity avd science
among the farmers of the United
States as among those of any
country in the world, and attention
is called to this industry a8 one
capable of deffinite expansion.
Give beet sugar an exhaustive
trial. It will help to kecure higher
prices for corn and wheas, besides
making us independent of other
countries for our sugar supply.

Are Ali Safes Unsafe.
Under the above caption the
Chicago Tribune tells some in-
teresting facts showing thas the
mechanical ingenuity of man
cannot cope with thesafe cracker.
One Samuel Rodman, Jr, who
formerly belonged to the United
States Engineering Department,
but receutly is an sxperb 10 high
explosives, has been chosen t9
test the power of varions manu-
factures of safes and has proven
to be superior to any ono yet
presented. He needs few im ple-
ments, and 1f he should choose
to lay aside his useful aud honest
occupation there is probably not
a vault in the land that he could
not releive of its contents in from
30 minutes to 2 hours. Nor is
Mr. Rodman alone, professiona
crackers are up to the tricks.
It is now stated that any elec-
trical expert with a wire to con-
nect with an electric line can, with
a stick of carbon, bura through
any safe in 30 minutes and empty
it of its contents.
The time 1s fast approachivg
when the vigilant eye of an hon-
est man will probably be the only
safeguard. It is now the chief
dependence of safety for the na-
tional vaults.
With the progress that we are

quishing darkness and obliterat:

business will be spoiled more ef-
fectually than can bo done by
