Napoleon Bonaparte
was the father of the modern
beet sugar industry. A method
of extracting sugar from 'beet
roots had been invented by
Achard, a German chemist, and
a small factory had been oper
ated 'by him at Cunern, Silesia,
from 1801, producing a little
sugar each year.
Meanwhile, Napoleon’s chem
ists and agronomists had been
conducting scientific experiments
for ten years and as a result
Napoleon by 1811 had got a
vision of the enormous possibili
ties of sugar beet culture.
He was hopeful that Europe
could be made independent of
the West Indies as a source of
sugar supply, thus defeating the
British Embargo in effect at
that time. Even more important,
he liad been given proof that
sugar 'beets greatly increased the
yield of cereal crops following
in the rotation.

tablished the Industry.

The Exeter baseball team
opened the season at home with
a 6-4 decision over Goderich last
Friday night. It was the second
victory in as many starts and,
like the first game ip Dashwood,
the winning run crossed the
plate in the final Inning,
The large attendance saw the
lead change hands three times
before Goderich pushed a run
across in the sixth to tie the
score, In the last of the seventh
Fred Darling’s single scored
Howie Holtzmann and Gord Far
row, the winning base runners.
Umpire HarbUrn called the game
in the seventh because of dark
ness,
In the opening ceremonies,
Thomas Pryde, M.L.A.,’ tossed
the first ball from the mound
with Reeve Sweitzer behind the
plate ari*d E. R. Hopper, a direc
tor of the local club, at ibat.
Two-Hit Ball
Making his first appearance
before the home crowd, Johnny
Baumann tossed two-hit ball. At
times he had trouble finding the
plate, issuing nine passes, but
when his control was right the
Exeter twirler fanned fourteen
of the Goderich batters. Besides
his winning performance, Bau
mann collected' the only extra
base knock of the game, a dou
ble in the second. His battery
mate, Qhuck Seymour, another
Toronto lad, will be on the side
lines until July with his frac
tured ankle.
Manager Joe Creech slipped
Fred Darling into the , clean-up
spot and the Exeter first sacker
batted in three runs with 'his
two singles. Besides the winning
two, Darling scored Harry Holtz
mann in the opening frame.
Glenn Robinson's single in the
third scored two more of the
Exeter runs.
Goderich took the lead in the
first half of the opening inning.
Baumann walked three in a row
and Worsen scored on a passed
ball. Exeter came back in its
half when Holtzmann came in
with the tying mu. Harry led
off with a single and, stole se
cond and third before scoring on
Darling’s hingie.
In the second,Cameron iand
McDonald added two more tallies
for the visitors,Baumann got
one of them back.. After doub-
ling and stealing third,he came
in on Howie Holtzmann’s groun-
der to second. Exeter took the
lead for the second time when
Farrow singled and Darling
walked, both scoring on Robin-
son’s safety. Two errors and a
stolen base accounted for the
visitor’s tying run in thei sixth
before Exeter again went in
front with the seventh inning
winning runs.
