INTENSIVE FARMING
IN GREAT BRITAIN
Government Urges Especially That the
Greatest Possible Crop of Wheat
Be Grown.

London, Sept o.-Intensive farming
throughout the British Isles and the
blowing of land at every place where it
is available Is urged in an open letter
issued yesterday by P. Lloyd Grayure,
secretary of the Unionist agricultural
committee. The greatest possible
amount of grain should be grown next
year the writer says, and he suggests
that the British government guarantee
the farmer fair price for all wheat
grown "If steps are not taken to Sc
cure a supply of wheat from May to
August" Secretary Grayure says, Eve
may see wheat rise to famine prices. To
avoid this the government should offer a
considerable bonus to all farmers to keep
their wheat in stack until May of next
year, at the same time reserving the
right to purchase all the wheat at a
price equal to the present price plus the
bonus"

POLISH JEW HELD IN HONOR
Warsaw Policeman Gets RemarkablH Recognition From All Glasses of
 the People.

An account of a jubilee celebration in honor of a Jewish policeman 'of Warsaw, Poland, is contained in the American Hebrew The celebration was in honor of fifty years service by Doruch Yablonsky, an ex-guards- man.
 In 1863 he was appointed consta- bic in the Polish capital by the vice. roy, Grand Duke Constantine, who took into consideration his brilliant conduct in the Crimean war, for which he was decorated with a medal. Yablonsky who is now the only Jew on the Warsaw police force, per formed the duties of constable for 42 years, until eight years ago, when he was transferred to the clerical de partmcnt.
 He is now eighty-eight years old and holds several decorations. The entire police force joined in the jubi- lee celebration, and Yablonsky was the object of hearty praise and eeH- gratulations. He received 100 rubles from the chief of police, watch from his colleagues and a warm message from the regiment of guards in which he served at the siege of Sebastopol. In religion Yablonsky holds orthodox views, and he has a special permit to attend synagogue services on Satur days and festivals.

Sea Monsters,

That 'thresher shark" of fabulous dimensions just caught on the south coast of England is fast becoming a formidable rival of the sea serpent and the big gooseberry. He is fairly common during summer around Corn wall. where he does great damage to pilchsrd and mackerel nets. in which he completely finds himself, like a caterpillar in his chrysalis. The thresher shark is also called the sea fox, from the remarkable tail. which he uses to frighten shoals of fish, and so make them more easily caught. There are sailors yarns that this whiplike tail is sometimes used for flogging whales to death But the real prosecutor of the whale is the gladiator dolphin or sword grampus (Delphinus gladiator. a very carniv- orous fellow. who kills and eats whales, seals and even his brother porpoises.
