A meeting of friends of the sugar beet was held at the court house last evening for the purpose of hearing the report of the committeo to which was referred the que: tion of the advisability of starting a sub- seription list to raise money to build a fac- tory. The committee's report was favorable to the scheme. It stated that the experi- ments made in the raising of beets in 1894 warranted the belief that beets vould be raised in this vicinity more profitably than any other crop; that the establishment of a factory Jhere would enhance the value of farm property; that the time is favorable; that $100,000 would be spent for labor each year and $200,000 received here as cash in- Stead of $150,000 going out from the com- munity each year for its sugar. The report recommended the organization of a permas nent company, to be known as the Iowa Beet Sugar association, to procure capital to promote the enterprise, and stated the belief of the committeo to be that one-third the required capital would be secured in this city. It also recommended that $5,000 be raised by subscription to be used In interest. ing eastern capitalists in the plan.

Waters of the Monongahela Are Now Re- ceeding—The Floods. PITTSBURG, Jan. 8.—At 9 o'clock this morning the state of the water in the Monongahela river at this point was twenty- five feet nine inches and stationary. The river Is falling above and it is thought that the highest stage has been reached. Unless there is more rain the rivers are expected to fall and the river men will begin to take advantage of the boating water to get coal to southern ports. The damage done by the flood has not been nearly as severe us was expected. All the iron mills along the banks of the Allegheny and the Monongahela are under water and closed down until the flood recedes. None of the railroads are blocked, although the tracks of the Pitts- burg & Western are under water in Alle- gheny, While the total damage will aggre- gate a considerable amount, yet it will not approach the loss in the floods of 1884 and 1891, < Rising Six Inches an Hour. POMEROY, O., Jan. 8.—The government marks at 8 o'clock this morning show twenty- nine feet of water and the river is rising six inches an hour. Since 1884 there has mnot been so much alarm as now. It was raining again this morning. High water has de- stroyed a $1,000 bridge on Leading creek and several bridges on other streams are damagad. T —— Eleetricity Taking the Place of Steam.

They will drive an old knock-kneed horse for years. Fe cats, and costs as much to keep, as a sound animal. They get along with dilapidated furniture; fuded and shabby carpets; bare windows; and quite likely an old stove which eats up more fucl in a year than a new and economical consumer would cost them; broil their wives and servants over a roaving five iu a July day, when a Gase olene Stove not only does hetter work without heating, buv with far more economy: they scrub or paint an old rough floor, when a beautiful coveriug of Lineolum would rot only look better, but actually pay for itsell in a short time with labor saved; they eat off of nicked and cracked dishes, when a whole and complete Dinner set could be bought for almost nothing. In a word, they deceive themselves by thinkiug they are economical, when they are actually extrovagant in their shiftlessness, or perhaps we ought to be more cha itable,and call it thoughtlessness, while all the time the children are growing up and getting accustomed to such makeshift habits and surroundings; grow untidy in dress, careless in habits and generally thriftless. Largely your fault, friend, because you have not made your children’s Home and its surroundings the methodical, systematic and attractive place you ought wo make it, AND MAY, What fools we mortals be! There is hardly an ordinary Home but, at the expenditure of anywhere from $25 to $100, could be made to look like a different habitation; your good wife’s hopes and ambitions real- d, and your whole home atmosphere radically changed.
