FREE SEED CUT OFF.
House Committee Stops Appropriation
for Free Seed Distribution.

for Free Seed Distribution.
Washington, March 1-Over the sol
Id opposition C. the southern members,
the house committee on agriculture
has struck from the agricultural appro-
prlation bill all provision for purchase
OF seed for free distribution.
This action came as a climax to a
hard fight which southern members
made to retain the appropriation on
the ground that it furnished one of
the few direct benefits the farmer of
the country receives from the govern
ment treasury. For a number of
years fight has been made against
this free seed proviso, led usually by
men representing city districts, but
heretofore the agricultural committee
has always included tne item in the ap-
preparation bill and the opponents have
been unable to strike it out in the
house.
Now it has been stricken by the COM
mlttee, however, the friends of the ap-
preparation will find it extremely diff
hcult to secure its insertion when the
department of agriculture made the
usual estimate of $252, 200 for the pur-
chase Of seed for congressional distri-
button. The subcommittee cut this
to S242,000 by a vote of to 7. The
full committee struck it entirely.

THE ISLAND OF FIRE.
Java's Wonderful Lake of Boiling
Mud and Slime.

Mud and Slime.
The greatest natural wonder in Java,
If not in the entire world, is the justly
celebrated Gheko Kamdka Gumko, or
Home of the Hot Devils, known to the
world as the Island of Fire. This geo.
logical singularity is really lake of
boiling mud situated at about the CEN
ter of the plains Of GrobOgana and is
called an island because the great en-
erald sea Of vegetation which surrounds
it gives it that appearance. The island
is about two miles IN circumference
and is situated at distance of almost
exactly fifty miles from Solo. Near the
center Of this geological freak immense
columns Of soft hot mud may be seen
continually rising and falling like great
timbers thrust through the boiling sub
stratum by giant hands and then again
quickly withdrawn. Besides the phe-
nomenon of boiling mud columns there
are scores of gigantic bubbles Of hot
slime that f1ll up like huge balloons and
keep up a series of constant explosions,
the intensity of the detOnations vary
ing with the size of the bubble In
times past, so the Javanese authorities
say, there was a tall, spirelike column
of baked mud on the west side of the
lake which constantly belched a pure
stream of cold water, but this has long
been obliterated, and everything is now
a seething mass of bubbling mud and
slime, a marvel to the visitors who
come from great distances to see it.

"Llewenn had the longest beard Of

horses shoulders almost to the ami
mails knees. It was of peculiar vel
low OF straw color, which was all the
more curious, both his parents being
dark haired mountain Welsh people.
Years afterward the mountain people
had proverbs which referred to this
freak, they often using the expression.

Yellow as the whiskers of Llewenn.' !"

Families Who Were Once Proud and

Want-Terrible Suffering Is De-
scribed by Relief Committee.

Seattle, Wash, March The steam
er Dakota brings advices from Maya
saki that the famine situation in the
northern provinces of Japan is stead
lily growing graver.
A second appeal has been issued by
W. E. Lamp, chairman of the foreign
committee on relief in which he says:
When we issued our first appeal to
the foreign committees in Japan in
December, We estimated that ESQ eco
persons out Of a population of 1921, go,
were on the verge of starvation. Since
then members of our committees have
personally visited 26 counties ana as
many towns in Myiga and Fukushima
and have distributed 5000 ven. Our
first figures estimating those affected
by the famine are too weak to describe
the actual suffering.
'Able-bodied men, ragged and hun
CRY, are facing tae snow and icy winds
to bring w6od-from the mountains in
the hope of earning enough through Its
sale to keep their starving families.
Women are covering their babies
with their own clothing to keep them
warm and such conditions as these can
mean only death in the end Fami-
lies once proud and comfortable, are
now reduced to want"
The appeal tells of special instances
of suffering and death, about the find
iTocC Nf hn1 Of
shrine and of another who died be-
cause she was too weak to give birth
to child and was frozen to death.
