THE ODORLESS ONION.

These experts and experiment. CTS are going pretty far when they announce the production of the ouOrleSS onion. w. N. Mill Ter of st. CIairSvilIr, Ohio, one of the experts, claims to have produced a hybrid onion which has the flavor of the Bermuda, the hardiness of the golden vel low and is odorless. The expert insists that the odor of the onion is it's greatest drawback and he believes it's use will be greatly enlarged by the use of tn" od"r- less variety.
 We are not so sure about that. The onion has played it's part in history and worId-making. We may not care lu smell the breath of those who have been eating onions, but there is question whether the odOr of them does act as d spur to the iaded ap- petite. There is not much hope for the man who does not sniff in anticipation when he catches the oder of onions in the frying pan.
 The OdOrlesS onion did not fig ure in the diet of the Israelites, for Moses tells us: We remem- ber the fish which we did eat in Egypt freely; the cucumb IFS and the melons, and the onions and the garlic" The record shows that the pyramids were built on a diet of two onions and hunk of black bread per day and is it not possible that the strong smelling vegetable helped to make them the strongest structures of all times?

A BRITISH VIEW OF TAMMANY

The Times of London wonders why, with a majority of the peO- pie of New York opposed to Tam many Hall, that survival of the spOils system continues to four ish. How under multiplying sym- bols of a democracy can such q ruthless despotism exist, be de- plored by most, yet maintain it's dominating control?
 Cannot even 6 British mind grasp the fact that, while it is the sole business of Tammany's leaders and camp followers to hold the reins of politics, it is not the sole business of those who oppose them to cut them off? The hater of Tammany spends five minutes day, OF monh, or year in hating, but ac- tive loyalty is the Tammany "heeler's' whole existence. It is his bread and butter. It means contracts for public works, places for the faithful, opportunities for large private profit at an expense to the entire community, but at a distributed expense, which awakens only mild if general re- senmcnt. IL would hardly pay to give up ones legitimate business to Slay the parasites of Tam many. So they survive and thrive.

ARE WE DOOMED TO sTARvA-
 TON?

Il. N. Dickson, professor of geography at University college, Edinburg, is out with another shock. He told the British As sociatiOn for the Advancement of Science, at a session in Birming- ham a few days ago, that Wlth- in a century tine the resources of the wOrlu--wheat, corn, coal, etc.--wiIl be taxed beyond their capacity and that the people then alive will be in danger of starNa- ton. And the worst part of the prediction is that Mr.. Dickson does not tell us luW the fate can be avoided, cvadtd OF longer postponed.
 Those of Us who expect to keep our appctitrs for another century might be more alarmed over the situation if we had not heard something of the kind before. It will be remembered that the Rev. Mr.. MalthuS frightened a lot of folks nearly to death With a similar prediction about a cen- Jury ago. He figured that (the population was increasing so much more rapidly than the pro- ductiun of foodstutfs that ulti- mate starvation was inevitable. Even in the later days the coal barOns have told us that we were going to run out of fuel in a few years and the only result of their prediction has been an increase in the price of coal and the op- cniny of new coal fields every now and then.
 It is true that the population is growing rapidly and that produc- ton is not keeping pace, but this is an economic question thai al ways adjusts itself. The pr"dlc- ing area in the United States Is being enlarged every year, srlen- life met ho,lS are increasing ma lrrially Inc volume of crops from old acreage and there are tnl- pires still awaiting development. The nat ion wastes enough each year to keep the rest of the world from starving. This is be- ing eliminated as rapidly as needs demand and We have no
  doubt that the problem of equal iZaliUn between produrtInn and Sustcnanrr will be solved in a manner to blast the prediction of Mr.. Dickson as it did that of the Rev. Mr.. Malthus. In the meantime most of us will prOb- ably 50 along eating more than is really good for us --EX.
