Two Strawberry Crops.

Some interesting experiments IL
strawberry culture are reported from
the truck farming districts of the
southern states. The most recent re.
suits are announced from small val
ley in Tennessee. There the fruit grow
ers have successfully produced sec
ond crop of strawberries which equals
the first Of the season. The work has
been accomplished through cultivating
the beds and forcing the plants into
bearing for the second time every year.
As a result the New York markets are
to be supplied with choice berries for
the holidays. The innovation prom
ises to make a big difference in the
demand for cranberries and other
fruits

wide discussion of the advisability of
elevating an attorney general direct
from that Office to the supreme court
bench.
One of the liveliest current ques-
tions that may soon come before that
court will undoubtedly be the constitu-
tionality of the law of last June con-
ferring the rate-making power upon
the interstate commerce commission.
That law contains a number of prin-
ciples around which the question of
constitutionality turned in the memor-
able fight over the railroad question
in the senate last winter. Senators
Foraker and Morgan both cast their
solitary votes against the bill. because
they regarded it as unconstitutional.

Cancer Is Not IncuraD.e.

Cancer is far from incurable, accord
ing to Dr. Nicholas Sem, in lecture
on 1.-THE Problem of Cancer at the
University of Chicago DR.. Sem de-
clared that SO per cit of the cases OF
cancer which are brought to the atten-
tion of physicians in the first stages
may be cured. In The course of his lee
ture Dr. Sem advocated the establish
ment of some sort of bureau to Keep
the public informed as to the nature
and the cures of cancer, as is done In
some cities of Europe. Many OF the
victims of cancer prevent cures by be-
coming respondent and keeping away
from good physicians, he said
eff the disease is detected in Its
early stages a cure may be affected,
said Dr. Sem, but If it is allowed to
go to an advanced stage nothing can
be done"

Whatever may be the opinion as to
the wisdom of selecting a supreme
court justice from the attorney gener.
alship, it is an historical fact that
seven such appointments. including
that of Mr.. Moody, have already oeen
made. Only three of the seven have
been confirmed. Two were rejected
by the senate and one died four days
after his appointment.
The three who were confirmed
were:
Nathan Clifford. of Maine, who was
appointed attorney general under
Polk, in 1916, and was appointed to
the supreme court in 1858 by Buch.

Roger E. Tansy, of Maryland. was

by the same president in 1886, where
he served % years; Joseph Kenna.
of California, who was appointed at.
torney general by Mckinley in 1897,
and to the supreme court by the same
president in 1895.
The two attorney generals whose
nominations to places on the supreme
court failed of confirmation were:
Ebenezer Rockford Hoar, of Massa-
chusetts. who was appointed attorney
general by Grant in 1869. and to the
supreme court by the same president,
but failed of ratification by the SEN
ate; George H. Williams, of Oregon,
the third of Grants attorney generals,
appointed to that office in 1871 and to
the supreme court by Grant in 1878,
when he failed of ratification by the
senate.
Still another attorney general who
was appointed to the supreme court.
but failed to serve, was Edwin NJ.

general by Buchanan in 1860 and to
the supreme court in 1869 by Presi.

first attorney generals confirmed as
a member of the court, was a native
of New Hampshire, who settled in
Maine and became a member of con-
gress in 1888. serving until 1S4S.
Three years later he became Polk's
attorney general, and in 1S4S he was
sent to Mexico as a United States
commissioner to arrange terms for
he cession of California to the
United States. On his return in 1S49
he resumed the practice of law in
Maine. and in 1858 Buchanan an.
pointed him an associate justice of
the supreme court, where he served
> successive years. or until his death
n 1881. Justice Clifford was one of
he four members of the supreme
court who were members of the elec.
toral commission in 1877. Justice
Clifford presided, and in all test votes
he decision was so close that Jus.
lice Bradley's opinion was decisive.

stood that Ambassador White was
withdrawn from Rome at the sugges-
ton of the Italian court, on the
ground that he had proved himself
persona non grata. The action at
which the Italian court took offense
was his e-asure of the names of sew
eral women of the aristocracy from
the list of invited guests at his first
official reception for the alleged rea-
son that their conduct had not been
above reproach.
Robert S. Mccormick. the present
ambassador at Paris. will be retired
from the diplomatic service in a few
weeks, because he incurred the dis
pleasure of President Roosevelt. The
real cause of the retirement Of Mr.
Mccormick dates back to the Russian
Japanese war. Mr.. Mccormick was
at that time the American represent
alive in st. Petersburg and ho was
an intense Russian sympathizer. Dur
ing the progress of the war he came
home and in an interview he scolded
the American people because they
sympathized with Japan and stated
that they were ungrateful, as Russia
was the friend of the United States
and stood by this government during
the civil war, when Great Britain
threatened to give assistance to the
confederacy. After he returned to st.
Petersburg President Roosevelt trans
ferred Ambassador Mccormick to
Paris without consulting him. It was
expected that the ambassador would
resign at that time.
