Bread that Intoxleates.

In far eastern Russia. In that region
which lies between the sea and the
river called Missouri, the humidity Of
the climate as we'll as of the soil Is re-
markable. Vegetation Is here distin-
euished for It's wondrous exurbance.
Go such an extent that the soil never
dries up. The result is that the inhab-
ltants in order 10 prevent putrefaction
OF the roots SOW their corn upon Sc
ries of layers OF the soil. Nevertheless
In certain districts the humidity Is SC
intense that there grows upon the ears
of corn a kind OF fungous matter made
up OF micro fungi. AS result OF this
sporadic excTescence the bread made
from the corn in question gives all the
results OF an overdose OF alcohol. In
very humid climates the phenomenon
Is likewise known, though TO nothing
like the extent OF eastern Siberia
where whole districts are affected by
this strange kind Of "alcoholized
bread" !"
