ROME, June 20.-Two regions OF Italy,
the Marches. which comprises q portion
OF the former papal States, and Emilia,
east of the Marches, which include H.
$50 square miles of territory and have
population Of 100000. held troops the
same as In war times during the recent
strike agitation. The trouble, as already
told. began after two Socialist workmen
had been killed al Ancona and II led to
general strike, which the Govt rnment
put down by sending large bodies Of
troops to the disturbed regions.
The trouble however. was prudently
repressed by the Government without vio-
lence or bloodshed Of any consequence.
Carabineers and soldiers who used their
arms In self-defence and In attempts t.
prevent looting. the destruction of public
buildings and acts OF vandalism. were
handed over to the judicial authorities for
trial. Six officers who were captured by
the Republicans were compelled to sur
render their swords and were kept Inn
prisoned for FIVE hours. They were after
ward cashiered.
None of the organizers of tho incipient
revolution, not even tho notorious An
archlst Malatesta, who started the trouble
at Ancona, was arrested. A few ring
leaders In some serious cases of rioting
were imprisoned for a few days This
pacific way Of treating the revolt, which.

character. Is expected to lead to the CON-
plete paciflcation OF the disturbed regions.
Malatesta In an interview said: I'VE
lost this time. but the revolt will have
fruits In the future. We felt the pulse
of the people"
The republicans are now declaring that
the army Is no longer royal, but national
The people. they say. realize their power
and sooner or later will triumph. The

II was not difficult for those behind him to
explain that nobody should own share

see whether he was ''well intentioned" or
"nl intcntoned" from the police point OF
view.
SO far as the campaign can be argued
out I'm open daylight the main plank OF
the platform Is unquestionably the ma
tionallzation Of credit" One might think
that this meant the development OF Rus
sian Industry by giving Government credit
to the Russians to build up their country's
,.sou' ccs themselves instead of being 80
dependent on the foreigner. But this is far
from what Is meant. The Nationalist
party In Russian politics and Its news
papers. which are not far removed from
the League OF True Russian Men and the
Black Hundreds, demand the monopoly OF
state credit for their own economic pro-
gramme. In the tangled scheme OF Rus
sian finance there are already Mobiles
Land Bank and a Peasants Land Bank,
both subsidized by the Treasury, whose
business It Is 20 facilitate the buying and
selling OF land. Now the anti-foreiguers
they are that next to being antl-J ewish

than any other practice. Fall breaking turns the egg pods of the grasshopper under deeply so that the young hoppers upon matching are too deeply buried to make their way to the sur face.
 Fall breaking offers one of the best mediums for controlling cut worms. This may be beneficial either because of the fact that 1t turns the worm under, or be- cause 1t prevents late cut worm moths from depositing their eggs on the same land.
 A number of insects are killed in the pupa stage as a result of fall breaking. Common exam ples of such insects are wire worm, and the corn ear worm.
 Aside from this fall breaking disposes of a lot of vegetation which would otherwise offer fav- orable hibernating places for countless numbers of insects. The good accomplished in this last named way is too large and too comprehensive to be discuss ed within this short article.
