BACKWARD SPRING
Largely Responsible for the Past
Seasons Great Shrinkage Of
Sugar Beet Tonnage.

Prof. G. o. Townsend, pathologist
United States Department of Agri
culture, Bureau of Plant industry,
Washington, d. c., visited Rocky
Ford several times last summer and
inspected large number of beet
fields. He selected samples from
different fields which showed the
most affected beets, and examined
them thoroughly at the Agricultural
station in Washington.
Referring to these examinations he
states that he is now OF the opinion
that the Curly Top is caused by a
combination of unfavorable soil and
climatic conditions, also that he has
not been able to produce this disease
by initiating the conditions which he
considers responsible for the trouble.
In view of past experiences he does
not look for an outbreak of Curly
Top next year in our section, on the
ground that it is not probable that
the same conditions which prevailed
last spring will be repeated next
year.
He will give the disease close at
tention in the future, as he has done
in the past, and if he can throw any
light upon the cause of the trouble
and the means of preventing it he
will promptly do 80.
Mr.. Hache, an authority on agri.
culture in Southern California, states
that he is positive that Curly Top is
caused entirely by combination oi
unfavorable soil and climatic condi
tions. During the season of 1906
the beet crop was failure on q
large acreage in Southern Califor.
mia. Since that time, however, aver
age climatic conditions have pre-
vailed and beets have beed grown
very successfully, even on soil which
showed an entire failure in 1900
This would prove that the two gen
tlemen were correctly diagnosing
the cause OF the short ciop.

Young Man From Tennessee Arrested

OTHER INTERESTING MATTERS

| Captain Henry Bailey of the Padu.
cab police department was the main
attraction early this morning in an
exciting encounter in front OF his
home on South Third street. He was
aroused about l;l5 O'Clock by his
wife, who told him q man was being
robbed in front of the house.
He seized his pistol and when he
got to the porch saw two young man
holding an elderly man by the arms
and at the same time going through
him. They. heard the officer open the
door and started away at brisk walk.
Capt. Bailey fastened out and
shouted to them to halt. They then
broke into run, and the officer turn
ed loose his big "A in their direction.
This aroused the people in that To-
cality, and Capt Bailey at this juno
ture met with an unfortunate accident
bv becoming eDtangled in the few gar.
ments he happened to have on when
he got out of bed and made his appear
ance. He could pursue no further,
for people were already beginning to
come outside, so he gave the rebeliious
habiliments yank and made dive
for the front door.
The thieves got away. Their victim
proved to be G. r. Burgess, aged 81, .
sign writer whose shop is SOB South
Third street, and who bosrds at the
Kettler house. He was on his way
home when the two young men, he
informed q reporter, passed him and
quickly turning seized him and hurled
him against the fence while they
started through his pockets. About
this time Capt. Bailey appeared and
the rest was blur until the shooting
began. Mr.. Burgess had 30 cents in
his pocket, and the thieves missed il.
His elbow was badly lacerated by the
force with which he was hurled
against the fence, but otherwise he
was little the worse for the encounter.
He did net recognize the robbers, but
says he would know them again il he
saw them.

The Science of Stocking,

According to Consul General Mason
at Berlin, the trailing clouds of black
smoke from mill and factory that
hang over so many American cities,
darkening the atmosphere and be-
fouling the buildings, could be elm
mated if the scientific methods of
constructing chimneys and stocking
furnaces that prevail in Germany
were adopted here. "'It'is not every
strapping laborer who can shovel
coal who is permitted to stoke a
boiler furnace in Germany" says Mr..
Mason. The stroker i'll that country
must learn the theory and practice
of economical scientific firing. where
by the coal is SO distributed over the
crate surface as to secure the most
perfect combustion. The use of fuel
briquettes for domestic purposes in
Berlin also tends largely to the pre-
vention of smoke.

tinguished place in Newman col
lego, Cambridge.
Miss Helen Gladstone is distinctly
what is known as IAN interesting
woman Those who know this
daughter of the famous statesman
and who stood a little in awe of her
when she was Newnham's vice prin-
cipal, speak now of the gentleness in
her nature which contact with the
needy folk of Nelson square, where
the settlement is located, seems to
have magnified.
Oddly enough, there is a striking
likeness between Miss Gladstone and
another woman whose name is as
ISOLATED with philanthropy in the
East End of London. Two faces
could scarcely have more similarity
than the rugged countenances OF
Helen Gladstone and Mrs. Bramwell
Booth, of Salvation Army fame.
Miss Gladstone gave up her position
as vice principal of Newman, the
woman's college in Cambridge uni
versity, to spend what proved to be
her fathers last year of life with
him. The gifted woman devoted her
self to her fathers correspondence.
She was, really, his unofficial secre-
tary and scarcely left him for day.
Throughout her life Miss Gladstone
was the grand old mans companion
on his travels, she was his confidante
and his closest friend. She is said
to have been even more congenial
to him than was his wife, her mother.
Miss Helen Gladstone's career at
Cambridge was notable for a good
many reasons. 1t was there she was
intimately associated with that bril-
liant sister of Arthur Hugh Clough,
principal at Newman. The two
women did much more than merely
manage Newman college during
those years they worked together
Miss Gladstone was president of the
Cambridge woman's liberal associa-
ton. and both she and Miss Clougl.
are keenly bent on raising the gen
eral standards for the education OF
women in England. They are two
of the people responsible for con-
dition now most flattering to the
women of England. The secondary
education of English girls Chat lead
ing up to college work) is considered
at the present time superior to the
opportunities given boys. "
