partment, who have been studying the
problem OF red clover seed production
On the other hand, the investigators
found that the bumblebee is an eff
Gent cross-pollinator, and that under
certain conditions the honeybee may
also be most useful
For some years there has been an
insufficient supply of homegrown red
clover seed. AS result not only has
the price of the seed been high, but
large quantities of foreign seed, which
is frequently inferior to the domestic,
have had to be imported. In conse-
quence, the maintenance of an ade-
quate clover acreage has become a
rather serious problem To remedy
the situation, attempts have been made
to ascertain the minimum quantities
OF seed per acre required to secure a
satisfactory stand aand the conditions
necessary to maintain such stand.
In addition, efforts have been made
to develop heavy-seeding, hardy
tstrain of clover, and finally various
mechanical forms of pollination have
been experimental with
Bulletin No. 2S9, professional pa
per of the department, which has Just
been published, contains the results Of
experiments in the pollination of red
clover. These experiments show that
that Yield Of seed obtained on heads
which were not ppllinated or which
were self-pollinated in different ways,
was practically. negligible. The ac-
tual amount was less than one-half of
one per cent, and this insignificant
quantity, it is said. may be accounted
for by accidental pollination from out
side sources. In contrast with these
results it was found that the humble
bee was able. to pollinate from 80 to
35 flowers, a minute in dry weather
When few nectar-producing plants are
available it was found that the honey
bee also collects large quantities Of
pollen from red clover and In the pro-
cess cross pollinization of the flowers
takes place.
Hand operated brushes for cross
pollination were also experimental
with. Instead of increasing the seed
yield, however, these were found ac-
tually to decrease it-a fact which is
accounted for by the injuries the

COMMANDMENT ESTIMATED

BERLIN, Nov 26-The assertion of German war correspondents on the west front based on estimates of ob. servers of various rank, that 50,000,- coo shots were fired by the French ar tillery in three days proceeding the great September offensive. Is demol- ished in an article in the Vorwaeters by Richard Gaedke. one of the sanest critics in Germany. Accepting Jof- tres figures as to tho number of guns available for the offensive as true, Gaedke points out that to reach 50.- 000.0OO shots, each gun would have to fire some 170OO charges in the three days Even new guns direct from the shops could not hold out. even if it were physically possible to serve thena SO fast which it is not This is even more striking in the case of the heavy artillery At the most, says Daedke the field guns could not have fired more than 1000 shots a day and the heavy guns much less.
 Even the smaller total, however, is imposing enough It means an eX pendiurc in ammunition of s25.O00, 200 to S60.O0OOOO. The estimates ol j0OOO.O0O says Gaedke. shows how terrible must have been the impress ion made by the French bombardment
