STARVING
AWFUL CONDITIONS IN SOUTH
EAST RUSSIA DESCRIBED.
MEN, WOMEN AND GIRLS
SELL THEMSELVES
FOR FOOD.

LONDON, April 19.-Writing from
the Russian famine district. DR.. Ken
nard, who was sent by the Society OF
Friends, to Investigate conditions
among the peasantry, draws an APP
palling picture of the suffering. Al
ter calling attention to the urgent
and immediate need Of funds. he says:
This is the worst famine Russia
has known. No less than 10000, 900
people distributed throughout the
Southeastern provinces cannot live,
without aid. to see another harvest.
| may say that this figure has been
ont only approved by the Zemstvo or
ganization, but also by the Govern
ment.
Funds will be needed to the end
of July to feed all these millions, and
then the harvest will bring relief, but
there are many hundreds of thousands
to whom the harvest will not bring
relief, for they have neither land noI
cattle. The few cows that are in eX
istence are in such pitiful condition
that they are useless for milking pur
poses. The result is that babies and
young children are being forced to cal
coarse black bread and the indigesti
BILE young cucumbers, which are luxu
ries to the adult Russian peasantS bui
are death to the baby.
These people have sold their all
and in most cases have likewise solo
in advance all that the harvest Nigh
bring them. They have sold them
selves and their work, and from al
over the Southeastern provinces re
ports are coming in of young womer
and girls forced to prostitute them
selves to obtain food For these SUI
fering people, to whom the COMING
harvest means nothing, relief must b
afforded during the whole of the com
ing year. Meanwhile epidemics 0
| disease add terrible conditions Dr
Kennard makes an urgent appeal 10
timed milk, meats and meat juices.

Picket camps of the Confederate vet
Grams and these in turn were headed
by a handsomely uniformed boy fife
and drum corps. Many of the girls
among the children were dressed IN
white and a large proportion of them
carried small Confederate battle flags,
which they waved throughout the
march. The scene was especially in
spring and was witnessed by thous-
ands of people. The rope used In

There was a conference Thursday be-
tween Commissioner of Agriculture
w. w. Ogilvie and Prof. H. A. Nor
gan. Director of the Tennessee Exper-
iment Station at Knoxville, with ref
erence to the establishment and con-
Quoting of cooperative agricultural

propriated $4,000 per annum for the
next two years for cooperative ex'
periments to be conducted in the Mid

1t was decided at the conference
Thursday that there should be no de-
lay in taking up this work and Prof,
Morgan and his assistants at the uni
yersity will at once go into various
counties of the division for the pur'
pose of making arrangements FOR
these cooperative experiments. There
will be experiments conducted in the
dark tobacco district on the growing

tillzers, determination Of insects, SOIL
quality and other features that enter
into the growing of the tobacco plant

be instituted at once various expert
ments in Giles county on crops that
are especially adapted to the soil OF
that section of the State. There WIZ
also be experiments in the cultivation
and gathering and shipment OF can
teloupes in Lawrence and other coun

Today, however, Clifford w. Hart
