After Years of study and experiment with plant life

came to the conclusion that their rest time might
be divided into three periods: First, the time that
follows the fall of the leaf in which the plant is
going to sleep; second, period of absolute rest or
sound sleep; third, period when the plant has
slept long enough, and remains dormant only be-
cause the cold weather is unfavOrable for activity
or growth. The not unnatural conclusion was
finally reached, that if they could hurry the plants

British Passenger Steamer, Sardinia,
Destroyed by Fire Near Malta.
Valette, Malta, Nov. 25.-The Brit
ish passenger steamer, Sardinia, Of
the Ellorman line, was destroyed by
fire just outside this port today and
a total of one hundred twenty-five
persons were either drowned or
burned to death. Seventy persons
were rescued.
The death list includes one hun
dred Arabs. five European passen-
gers and eight of the ships crew.
Most of the people on board were pill
grims.
The vessel had just left this port
for Alexandria, Egypt, and was
scarcely a mile off the port when the
fire appeared. In a short time the
whole ship was ablaze. Many Of the
passengers jumped into the sea and
were drowned, while others were
burned to death. A high sea and a
heavy gale was blowing, which pre-
vented the craft in the harbor from
rendering any assistance.

a duty and an opportunity and maze
a number OF practical suggestions for
the help Of ministers and laymen,
chief among which are the requests
that laymen give employment to as
many as possible. hiring as much as
possible Of their WORK done, and that
money be loaned in small amounts,
without interest or time limit, rath-
er than given outright. The letter
concludes by saying that, in addition
to whatever personal service it can
render, the church carries the re-
sponsibility of getting the community
to face the problem Of the unemploy-
ed and to endeavor to work out a
common solution.

says leading shipper.
For long time Minneapolis ship

has better rates into the Black Hills,
with a longer haul than Minneapolis
1t is an aim of the Minneapolis Traf-
fc association and other organiza-
tons to secure equitable rates for
the local shippers. In fact the ques.
ton is burning one today. The
situation is such that only small
proportion of the freight goes out OF
Minneapolis to the South Dakota
points that should.
The railroads are reported to be ir
sort of compact to abide by the
rates which the two leading lines
will make. 1t is said also that these
lines have not announced their atti
tude in the matter of rates. The
