methods. "The growing of thea crops until wltbtn a few years could not have. been ranked as agriculture,

but ehould have beeii described as highway robltery of the SldL As a result the average production per acre of

these crops has fallen to a minimum. "Farming, for one thin. Bust bs j made more attractive it should be j made more profitable. This will bs 1 done as our farmers learn more thor oughly the principles of Intenolve culoV vatlon and get a knowledge of p ' meth sis of feeding the soli and ofiths rotation of crops. "To this end I have been preaehlag for the past thirty years the gospel of j the sugar teet. The production of the augar beet requires the hlchest style of Intensive j culture that science bas been able to I suggest. The principles of feeding the sugar crops. themetboda of culture and handling, the attention and skill

of the worker, are such aa to create to every field and factory devoted to sugar culture an agricultural rpeViment station of the highest type. The soil and climatic coriditiona In the greater part of the I'nlted States are tbor oughly favorable to beet culture, and America Is the greatest sugar markst In the world. "Iu the case of the sugar beet the crops which are grown In rotation with it yield very much larger returns than when 'he old fashioned sy ateno of agriculture prevailed The reflex tctlob of thl Influence iecomes a benefit to Arnerl'-an agriculture the valae of RrhJeh It would 1k difficult to measure In dollars snd cents. "W hemes the sugar beet la fultlvated the fanners are all prosperous, no matter what kind of other cropa thfif rsl-e. The rcct generally Improves the pfedSM 1 ness of the soli la all kinds f sgri ult .re. It oauaes the employment of more labor acd Indlre tly benefits com meres and transportation snd produces In every community conditions of prosperity In agriculture which It would be difficult to bring slout In any other way. "l he culture of the beet brings Into the n. lhtH.rhood tbo large sugar factory usinR fuel and other raw material, with Its complement of 1: borers and experts, thus giving a better and more profitable market to the surrounding farmers for all their products. "While there bus been a general tendency tonttrd tbe PBRhjettBBl of tariff duties, this tendency has not reached la many cases the extent of the abolition of Import duties altogether. In any changes of tbls sort let aa much as poa sible tie savCi to the farmer. I view of tbe great Importance of dkaaiestlc eugar production to the prosperity of the American farmer.
