Secretary of Agriculture Raises Ban on Disease Free Shipments

WASHINGTON. Jan. 2.-The Sec retary of Agriculture today issued two orders relating to the admission of foreign potatoes into the United States.
 One of these orders provided for the admission of disease free potatoes from uninfected foreign districts un- der proper regulation and inspection.
 The other order. to protect Ameri- can potatoes from powdery scab and other diseases. temporarily extends the quarantine effective since Septem' Der 20, 1912, against the importation of potatoes from Newfoundland, the islands of St. Pierre and Miquelon; Great Britain, including England Scotland, Wales and Ireland; Ger many; and Austria Hungary, to include also the rest of continetal Europe and the Dominion of Canada, This quar- antine will become effective on De- cember 24. 1913, except that shipments covered by consular invoices issued on or prior to December 24, 1913, will be admitted up to January l5, 19li.
 As soon as any country or distre' can be, shown to be free from potato diseases, the quarantine will be lifted and potatoes will be admitted under proper regulation and inspecuoh' as provided in the other order. It is pos slble that. in the case of certain prov inces in Canada, and certain couh tries and districts in Europe, the ap solute quarantine can be lifted Tn ''n' fin allow the later movement or tp' present years crop under resuia''o' and inspection.

THINK LITTLE OF FIGHT
Seth Smith and PeIkey Fall Short Of
 Expectations

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 2.-All sporting editors in San Francisco agree that yesterdays fight between Gunboat Smith and Arthur Pelkey was a disappointing exhibition. pel- key showed considerable cleverness in the first 3 rounds. and it looked as if he knew the meaning of the wcrd attack, but in the remained CT the fight he had absolutely nothing to deliver.
 It is the unanimous agreement that the man who was beaten so decisively by a man 25 pounds lighter can hope fer nothing in the heavyweight diyi- sion. On the ether hand there is complaint that although the gunner won. he was wilk as hawk, fought wide open, and would have been an easy mark for anyone who knew how to deliver a straight punch or to tear in at the body during clinches.
