Tho sugar raetory nt Oliino Califor
nia lias been making some phenomenal
runs since it started There has been a
good natured rivalry between the day

Tho day shift of Tuesday the lllth
sliced llii tons the night shift followed
with tM tons then tho day shift on
Wednesday sent through liili tons
which they thought could not be
beaten but the night shift was not to bo
vanquished and by tho end of its Ii
hours had scored Mil tons tho largest
record considering the quality of tho
beets that the factory has ever made
This record was made with beets averag
ing 17 sugar which would equal about
1000 tons per day of II or U per cent
beets The peicentage of beets is very
high there owing to tio dry season
averaging from 10 to 111 per cent Tho

It is frequently assumed that whero
soil shows surlaco incrustations of alka
li salts it is valueless for agriculture
purposes This is shown not to be the
case by some experiments made by the
Wyoming government experiment
station There are however few plants
so alkali proof as to flourish uudor
these conditions Iucruatatiou of ordi
nary white alkali on the surface is
usually marked at least during dry
weather where there is aa much as 1 or
2 per cent of salts in tho top two inches
of soil Such an amount of salts will
prevent the growth of any of tho cereals
or of alfalfa Barley or rye Soem to
stand more alkali than wheat or oatp
In tho germination of seeds it was
found that the influence of small amounts
of alkali hastens sprouting and also
assists in thu life of the plant either
stimulating grouth or acting directly as
plant foul It did not appoar that any
ot the sidts except common soda exeited
directly poisonous or corrosive effects
on the seeds Tho injury uppearcd
duo to tho fact that the salts in solution
interfered with tho absorption by the
bei d of tho water necessary for germi
nation Two important plants which
have bf en successfully tested us alkali
resisting are sugar beets and Bokhara
or white sweet clover English rape is
also found in the same class
