The water supply of the factory is the lake, fed by natural springs, with a capacity of 4,000,000 gallons in twenty-four hours. Besides these there are eight artesian wells from 60 to 135 feet deep, which furnish pure water, and have a capacity of 500 gallons per minute. After examining the work the government decided to locate the internal revenue inspector and weigher on the grounds, and for their accommodations this company has erected a four-room building to serve as a laboratory and office. HOW BEETS ARE MADE INTO SUGAR. When the farmer brings the result of his season's toil in the best fields to the factory the beets are first weighed and then stored in the long sheds, which have been made frostproof by a double wall, filled with curders and a roof covered with earth. As the beets are required at the factory they are thrown into a shallow sluiceway, which runs from the sheds to the factory and ablates the beets to float from the point where they are received to the place where they are needed. They are taken from the sluiceway. PERCHANT TAILOR. A complete assortment of Goods of latest styles which the attention of the citi- and vicinity is directed. From $25 up.

Delivered in Santa Ana August 24th in favor of the county high school: "We did not expect there would be any opposition to the matter when it was first brought up. No county is so well situated for a county high school. There is no community but that could send pupils to the high school. The opposition so strongly waged is not an opposition to the high school. They don't talk high school; they talk against Santa Ana—to down Santa Ana. The opposition have gone so far as to look up the law to see who is going to be benefited. They say Santa Ana wants a Courthouse, and they urge that they will teach those Santa Ana follows that they don't run Orange county. There would be no opposition if these people thoroughly understood the question, and were not led astray by their prejudices." "And what shall we say," take the Orange News, "of our School Superintendent? Our cheeks mantle with shame that any official of Orange county should descend so low as to appeal to the lowest and most brutal passions of the human breast for the purpose of carrying a point! Nothing in the annals of anarchism could be worse than this! Will Santa Ana permit herself to be played upon and her jealousy fanned into a flame by every demagogue who wishes to use her? Have we not declared over and over that we merely wish to discuss and protect our mutual interests, those of the whole county? When will Santa Ana feel so secure and at the same time be so disposed to deal justly that she can say: 'Come, let us reason together over this matter.'" Children Cry for Pitcher's Castoria. When Baby was sick, we gave her Castoria. When she was a Child, she cried for Castoria. When she became Miss, she clung to Castoria. When she had Children, she gave them Castoria. The body of Isaac Sawtell, the murderer who died of apeplery in his cell at Dover, N. H., on the eve of his execution, a couple of weeks ago, is, like Mahomet's coffin, suspended between heaven and earth as regards a resting place, for all the cemetery corporations approached have flatly refused to permit the assassin's remains to rest in their land. The dead man's lawyer, to whom was left the body for interment, is in a quandary. He has carted the body without success all over the State. Sawtell left word that he wanted his body interred beside that of his victim, his brother Hiram, but the Mount Hope Cemetery Directors refuse it. In five New Hampshire towns the people declared their intention to disinter the remains if placed there, and hang them to a tree. The body is in an undertaker's place at Dover. The juice now flows to an automatic register, which registers the quantity and temperature of the juice and draws out a sample for use in the laboratory. From the register it passes to a heater, which is heated at 90° centigrade, and it then passes into the carbonators or clarifying pans, where a portion of the impurities are removed from the juice by the application of lime. Fortunately a majority of the impurities combine with this substance and settle at the bottom of the pan. The sucrate of lime is decomposed by pumping carbolic acid gas through the liquid, which forms the excess of lime into carbobate of lime. When this operation is completed, the whole contents of the carbonator, 180 cubic feet of juice, or 1,350 gallons, is pumped by means of a plunger pump, having a capacity of 8,000 gallons per hour, through a mammoth filter press. This removes the residue of the clarification, the juice being treated twice with carbonic acid and once with sulphurous acid. In the last process all of the lime is removed. The diluted liquid is now concentrated in a quadruple effect evaporator to a 50 per cent solution. From here there are two operations. To make the very finest quality of sugar it is necessary to run it over bone black, which removes impurities that cannot be taken out any other way. After this process the liquor is as clear as water, and the juice is then boiled into sugar in a vacuum strike pan. This is a closed kettle, 10 feet and 6 inches in diameter and 23 feet high, and holds 35 tons of sugar. In this kettle the sugar is granulated, and forms a product technically termed melada, a mixture of molasses and sugar, 75 per cent of the latter. The sugar is then dropped into a mixer.

The diluted liquid is now concentrated in a quadruple effect evaporator to a 50 per cent solution. From here there are two operations. To make the very finest quality of sugar it is necessary to run it over bone black, which removes impurities that cannot be taken out any other way. After this process the liquor is as clear as water, and the juice is then boiled into sugar in a vacuum strike pan. This is a closed kettle, 10 feet and 6 inches in diameter and 23 feet high, and holds 35 tons of sugar. In this kettle the sugar is granulated, and forms a product technically termed melada, a mixture of molasses and angel, 75 per cent of the latter. The sugar is then dropped into a mixer, which holds the entire contents of the kettle. The next step is to remove the syrup, which is done with Weston centrifugals. The sugar is then partially moist, and the moisture is removed by passing the product through a Hersey sugar dryer. It then passes perfectly dry into the sacks, each of which holds exact 100 pounds. Here samples are taken, weighed, and marked by the internal revenue officials, and then at last we have the finished product of the sugar company. It has taken exactly thirty-six hours from the time the best left the shed until the sugar is ready to sweeten your coffee. Wherever any good industry like a beest sugar factory is located it greatly benefits the surrounding community, especially the farmers. Among the direct benefits which Lehi has received is the erection of a $10,000 hotel, a $7,000 bank building, and a number of residences and stores. Real estate has appreciated in value perhaps 50 per cent, and the town has gained 600 population in six months. Another good result has been the establishment of a local newspaper, and many other improvements are in prospect, such as a creamery, a new opera-house, electric lights, and general town improvements. The creamy enterprise contemplates an investment of $50,000. On many pay days the company has distributed $10,000 in this community, and will soon pay out something like $180,000 to the farmers for beets. We have already brought here 1,000 tons of machinery, and we shall have to haul 4,000 tons of coal and coke from Pleasant Valley, Rock Springs, and points in Colorado. We shall also bring a great deal of bone black, or animal charcoal, from Eastern cities. Our shipments of sugar will be very heavy, and the railroads have already built three miles of paw track in Lehi. Mr. Granger, our agricultural superintendent, will tell you how the industry has benefited the farmers. The factory has doubled the capacity of farmers to make a living. It increased the value of their landa. The man who raises sugar beets has an absolute guarantee in advance of his market and his price. Contracts are made with the farmers in the spring by which they agree zette 77, 1892. NUMBER 9 to plant a certain acreage of beets from imported seed furnished by the company and to cultivate the crop according to a plan laid down, and then the company agrees to buy their crop for cash, at a certain price per ton. When the farmer understands the cultivation of his crop, he will get from fifteen to thirty tons per acre, which will give him from $75 to $135 per acre, at $4.50 per ton. The beet crop can be handled, including every expense, from time of planting to the time when the beets are laid down at the factory, for $40 per acre. After the first thinning, one man can take care of from ten to fifteen acres. For the first thinning a man must devote four or five days to an acre. With irrigation the Utah sugar beet will and first in the world—first in amount of charine matter, first in purity, first in age to the acre. There are some things, er, it seems, difficult to make the understand. The chief difficulty is disposition to raise big beets. Now, the beet that contains the most sugar is the one that weighs from 2 pounds to 14 pounds. Above that it ceases to increase in sugar in proportion to its size. A good average beet of this size will go 14 per cent in sugar and 80 per cent in purity. Beets weighing from 4 to 10 pounds will show not more than 3 to 6 per cent of sugar and 45 to 55 per cent in purity. These beets are of no earthly good to any factory, yet almost every day some farmer comes to me triumphantly with a beet nearly as large as a parlor stove, and he thinks it contains a barrel of sugar. He has forced the growth of this beet by giving it lots of water, and by every other possible means, and he has raised a beet that we cannot afford to undertake to make into sugar. Beets do not impoverish the land much. The constituents of the soil go largely into the leaves and crown of the beet, which are left on the ground after the harvest and subsequently plowed in. So that the farmer really returns to the soil in pleasing the strength that has been drawn out of it by the growth of the beet. The Meet Sugar Industry. Los Angeles Herald. Within a few years at most Southern Cali- starting a factory. I desire to see just what the opportunity is. Our attention was called to this section principally by newspaper articles regarding the meetings which have been held. "The starting of a factory in any locality means not only the sugar house itself. Other industries spring up incident to the works, and it means prosperity to any locality. A factory should have not less than 3,000 acres under cultivation, but there should be no hesitation in planting sugar beets. The business can't be overdone in this country for a long time to come." Mr. Dyer will visit San Bernardino, Anaheim, Santa Ana and other points before returning East. The immense possibilities of the beet sugar industry in Southern California, are not as fully realized by those who should lead in its extensive inauguration in this section as we would like to be able to record. The landowners are especially backward in taking the lead that would be expected from them. If there were any question about the great profit to be derived from the culture of the beet and its manufacture into sugar, we could find no fault with their timidity or indifference. But there is nothing dubious or experimental about it. The value of the beets raised in our soil and climate has been thoroughly proven by the actual results in the Chino ranch enterprise. There the farmers who raised the beets were satisfactorily remunerated. We have the details of the cost and returns of a number of farmers who raised beets for the Chino factory last season, and they show net profits, exclusive of the wages received by the farmers for their own work, of from $36.25 per acre to $45.88. Now, this is certainly a very encouraging showing on the farmers' side of the account. But the plans proposed in this valley would present a much more inviting picture to the farmers who own lands than that presented by the farmers of Chino, who worked the land belonging to the ranch. They would realize the profit incident to the raising of the beet crop, as was the case at Chino, and for their accommodations the erected a four-room building to factory and office. A firm brings the result of his beet fields to the factory, weighed and then stored sheds, which have been made double wall, filled with cocoons covered with earth. As the raised at the factory they are a shallow sluiceway, which sheds to the factory and encloses to float from the point where they are taken from the sluiceway or a trough-shaped contouring arms. The beets are automatically into a bucket convey them to the top of where the cutter is located, but the beets in slices about an inch thick, three-eighths of width of various lengths.

The soil there is of a light, leamy nature; just what the beet requires. The land is much better than that of the majority of beet-growing districts, for the reason that the loose soil is of greater depth. The sugar beet could be cultivated to the highest degree on such soil as I saw to-day, and the mildness of the climate gives the advantage of long seasons. I have been in France and Germany and studied their methods thoroughly. The industry sprang up in France, where it was fostered by Napoleon III, and extended from there to Germany. The excise laws in the latter country being more favorable to the industry, it grew to greater proportions than in France. In the countries mentioned contains a barrel of sugar.

Within a few years at most Southern California will be known the world over for its sugar factories as well as its climate and orange, lemons and other fruits, and its wines and minerals. There are capitalists with millions of dollars at their command who stand ready to place their money in sugar factories, provided they find the right locality for the growth of the sugar beet and at the same time a locality where fuel is reasonably cheap and good transportation facilities afforded. Men who have studied the question thoroughly do not hesitate to say that Southern California is the place to raise sugar beets, and negotiations are now in progress for the formation of a company which proposes to put up factories and go into the business very extensively. The meetings recently held in various sections of this part of the State have been given widespread publicity through the medium of the newspapers, and have attracted the attention of men who are interested in the development of the best sugar industry. Mr. E. F. Dyer, of the firm of E. F. Dyer & Co., of Cleveland, O., arrived in Los Angeles on Monday, and intends to spend about a week in visiting various points adjacent to this city collecting data as to the nature of the soil and its adaptation to sugar beet culture. It is likely that this visit will result in the establishing of one factory at least. The company which Mr. Dyer represents, and in which he is one of the principal owners, makes a specialty of sugar beet machinery, and is only manufacturer in America that turns out that sort of machinery. Mr. Dyer came direct to this coast from Lehi Utah, where a factory has just been finished by his company, the first one equipped with machinery made in this country. He took a trip through Cahuanga valley Monday afternoon in company with Mr. A. H. Deaker, and upon his return to the Nadeau hotel in the evening consented to give his views of the country to a Herald reporter. "There is no question," said Mr. Dyer, "about the value of the beet sugar industry to any locality. The establishment of a factory gives great impetus to the country adjacent to it." "I have been through the Cahuanga valley to-day and took a good look at the land. The soil there is of a light, leamy nature; just what the beet requires. The land is much better than that of the majority of beet-growing districts, for the reason that the loose soil is of greater depth."

After this process is as clear as water, and the end into sugar in a vacuum is in a closed kettle, 10 feet diameter and 23 feet high, of sugar. In this kettleulated, and forms a product melada, a mixture of sugar, 75 per cent of the latter, can be dropped into a mixer, entire contents of the ketrap is to remove the syrup, with Weston centrifugals, partially moist, and the by passing the product by sugar dryer. It then dry into the sacks, each of 100 pounds.

Mr. Granger, our independent, will tell you was benefited the farmers. doubled the capacity of living. It increased the raises sugar boots has an advance of his market contracts are made with the ing by which they agree The soil there is of a light, leamy nature; just what the beet requires. The land is much better than that of the majority of beet-growing districts, for the reason that the loose soil is of greater depth. The sugar beet could be cultivated to the highest degree on such soil as I saw to-day, and the mildness of the climate gives the advantage of long seasons. "I have been in France and Germany and studied their methods thoroughly. The industry sprang up in France, where it was fostered by Napoleon III, and extended from there to Germany. The excise laws in the latter country being more favorable to the industry, it grew to greater proportions than in France. In the countries I mentioned they have to get the beets in the ground in about six weeks, and have about the same length of time to dig them after maturity. At Lehi, which is near Salt Lake City, where we have just completed a factory, the planting must be done in about thirty days. In this country the farmer can plant at any season of the year, and he need not hurry about taking the crop out. "The factory at Alvarado, which was built by us and in which we are large stockholders, was the first one in this country that operated in a satisfactory manner. Since it began running the price of land increased very materially, and is now worth from $300 to $400 per acre. Land close to the factory cannot be had for less than $400 per acre. There are now nearly 2,000 acres under cultivation, and many owners rent their property at from $29 to $50 per acre. The average production is about twenty tons per acre. That means 4,000 pounds of sugar. In Germany they figure it at twelve to fifteen tons per acre, but in this State there is no reason why the average should not be twenty tons and over. "The sugar beet will grow with less moisture than any other crop. The plant has a tap root that goes down about six feet and finds moisture. The loose soil is therefore advantageous, and from what I have seen I should think with the proper amount of moisture, which everyone tells me you have, big yields should be obtained here. The land surrounding the Lehi factory is dry and arid, and every acre must be irrigated. I do not think irrigation would be necessary on the land I saw to-day. "There is an idea that the beet is exhaustive to the soil. If properly cultivated it is not so. Most of the mineral constituents of the soil taken up by the beat are in the crown and the leaves. When the crop is cut these are left on the ground, and the mineral matter is therefore returned. "The saccharine matter in a heat varies from 12 to 20 per cent. Beets of 14 per cent sugar, native purity, will give a yield of 10 per cent white sugar. This can be produced where fuel can be had at a reasonable price at from 3½ to 4 cents per pound. "My visit is primarily for the purpose of porter, whose record in the Civil War was a brilliant one, died in Washington. In the same month General William T. Sherman, the most illustrious military chief after General Grant, died and was accorded every honor which the country could bestow. General H. H.
