Supremacy Unshaken.
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

which showed qtii'e wide variations
Tho difference in this i i foimer
tests, seems to indicate that tho quality
of the sued is mure important than tho
variety.
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.

New England, forced by a

nautical tradition and harder driven
by necessity than their fathers. They

the nineteenth they bad carried tho

It is along those lines that tho art ex

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
