It is under the eir.umstancca a relief to bo done with the international yacht rare. Tho result ns a foregono con elusion from tho supurtoiity shown by tho Ameiicwi bont as soon its it was brought into direct comparison with its British competitor. This of courte de stroyed interest, which depends largely upon the (dement of uncertainty. Thus the nboriivo attempts to linlsh the Inst rnco of tho cerius became a weariness. Sir Thomus Llpton himself a week ago lulmitted tho certainty of his dofeat and made it plnln that ho would be glad to bavo it all over. Tho result is every way gratifying to Americans. It establishes boyoud a peradventure the superiority of their art in building and navigating fust sail ing vessels. Sir Tuomas admits that in the threo Shamrock challengers he has exhausted the resources of British designers and sailors. It is not tin likely that the result will be accepted as decisive on this point for some time. To beat tho British is to beat the highest seamanship in the world. The ocean has been their element for un numbered centuries. Their ancestors, before they had left the old home on the shore, of the North ion, were the moat adept and boldest navigators in the world. They scoured the ocean, penetrating to distant parts, and were the terror of all peoples, even of the Romans'. They took their hardihood and skill with them to England and there became the undisputed matters of the sea. They dovoloped the sail ing ship until, both in war and in com merce, they drovo the oared ship from the face of tho world, and one after another, Venice, Spain and Holland yielded to their supremacy. The now world gave the stimulus and conditions ueoessaiy still further to improve the genius of the same race for the sea Tho seafaring poople of made it possible to uso vcrv much l.trji- .ilnta lliit.i t..,,1.t jtit 1 a. .ll i.

Au application of f.umyard manure of twenty-two tons per aero seemed to bavo no t-ll'ect on the quality of the sugar beets, nor upon tliu yield per acre, but in tho latter respect this year's results ditler Iroin those of pro viotts year. Tho use of salt as a fertiliz-r, if it had any tffect, improved the quality of the beets produced, but hnd no ef fect upon the susceptibility to disoase. A comparison of early and late planting of sugar beets was decidedly in favor of early planting. A comparison of different depths of horse-cultivation of sugar beets was in favor of rather deep cultivation. It should be remembered, however, that the season of 1002 was much wetter and cooler than normal. Experiments in previous years favored cultivation about three inches deep. The yield of sugar -beets was very coaeideraMjf increased by deep hand hoeing .when tho beets were four to rive lncis drop. The presence of weeds in sugar beet fields verv materially decreased tho yield and sugar contents of the beets. Breaking off a part of the leaves of sugar beets at "laying by" time did not injuriously affect the yield or quality of the crop. Beets treated in this way were loss uifected by "leaf spot" dis ease than those not ho treated.

J P Campboll of North Branch has beou returned to tho Penny crook charge by Iho Wosluyun Methodist cbufereuco for nuothor year. New England, forced by a to tho ocean, wero less bound by nautical tradition and harder driven by necessity than their fathers. They introduced many innovations that wero great improvements, both in ship building and rigging and in methods of handling ship. Ic tlio la at half of the eighteenth century and early in the nineteenth they bad carried tho art of handling sailing vessels to a point never beforo reached in the world. The havoc wrought by Amorican privateers upon English commerce during tho wars of independence and 1812 was fatal and unprecedented. The superiority of American seaman ship, in peace or in war, ship tor ship and man for man, was absolutely demonstrated. The American clipper built ship beenmo the model which no foreign designers and ouildors, how over they might try, ever surpassed. It is along those lines that tho art ex emplified 60 notably in racing yachts has been developed, and within them that the true signiticanco of tho long unbroken series of victories over British competitors is comprehended. It is a satisfaction to have so fresh and striking a demonstration as that of the Into international contest that have in no wiso lost our cunning tho sea.

Tho co-operative sugar beet experi mental work upon tho farm of tho Standard Cnttlo company at Ames, Neb., during the soas-n of 1003, was in part a continuation of previous work where conclusive n suits had not beou obtained, aud in part a test of methods of culture and combating disease that had not previously been under investi gation. All tho work was laid out with a view to solving problems iu which the farmer or beet growor was partic ularly interested. As in previous yoars tho liberality of tho cattlo company mndo it possible to carry on tho work on an extensivo .scale, and ovor 200 acros of selected land was used for tho experiments.

Propor tion of recolpts will run more to stookers nnd feeders from now on. Lust weok was tho largest weok of tho season and 725 cars wont out to coun try feed lots.
