the greatest amount of alfalfa can be
obtained by allowing the crop to grow
when the water requirement is lowest,
in the fall or spring, and by keeping
the leaf surface at a minimum dur

pasturage. The efficacy of thus con-
serving the moisture during the per-

many times.

WANT BETTER TRAIN SERVICE

The business men of Nashua have
presented a petition to the railroad
commissioners asking for better
train service in our city. Although
such action may arouse the enmity
of the railroad company, it is done
in all fairness to both corporations
concerned. We have faithfully
waited for better accommodations, in
fact several officials have been in our
city, each promising a quick remedy,
asking however, that we sustain
from taking the matter up with the
railroad commissioners. Whether
or not their intentions were good has
caused considerable doubt and as a
last resort an appeal has been made
to the commissioners in the hope that
Nashua will receive what is rightfully
deserved by the city.-Nashua Inde-
pendent.

removal of one Of the main obstacles
to a complete understanding between

nearly a year, have been watched
with closest interest here. ACCORDING

of things lies IN the formal acceptance
of Russia's dominating Influence In

This little fortified Dutch town, In

nor consequence, has come to be the
principal port OF communication be-
tween the Netherlands and Belgium
As rail communication with Antwerp
is SO uncertain as to be practically
cut of, that most fertile and, before
It's defamation by war, most populous
section Of all Europe which lies about
the Belgian city Of Client finds its
sole outlet by canal or rail to Terneu~
zen, thence by boat across the Scheldt
70 Flushing, thence again by rail to
Rotterdam. Amsterdam and The
steamers to England and the outer
world
As the export Of almost everything
produced in Belgium has been for
hidden by the military authorities in
occupation, Terneuzen is not in any
danger OF being swamped by the sud
den influx of trade. At least one Curl
GUS product of Belgian intensive ag-
riculturc, however, Is still freely ex-
ported 10 Holland--indeed, is even
more freely exported than ever be-
fore, since there is now no demand
for il in Belgium. This product Is cut
orchids, for the retail florists trade.
Every day there pass through this
port scores Of light boxes consigned
to florists In Amsterdam, The Hague,
Rotterdam and even to England, con-
tanning hundreds of orchids of many
species, carefully packed in cotton
and tissue paper. The two small towns
OF Neirelbeke, between Client and
Termonde, and Loochristi. In the
Wnles, furnish them, and are famous
among florists throughout Europe for
their orchid houses. owing to their
nearness to these points. the larger
cities Of the Netherlands have always
been heavy purchasers of these beau
tiful and exotic plants; and the flow-
err shop windows in Amsterdam and
The Hague have for years been gor-
geous bowers of exquisite coloring and
rare form through their display Of
orchids.

BUDDH|sTS OF
CEYLON ATTACK
MOHAMME DAMS
Shops Are Looted and Several
Persons Murdered Before
British Authorities Are Able
to Restore Order.

London, June z $3.50 .. M -
There has been a riotous outbreak IN
Ceylon by Buddhists against the Mos
lens, In which numerous Moslem
shops were looted and many murders
occurred, according to an official
communication made public here to-
night.
The official statement says.
THE governor OF Ceylon reports
that on the 2Sth Of May the birthday
of Buddha, Moslem shops in Handy
were looted by Buddhists. The out
break was quelled in Randy, but was
diffused through the central province,
where 1t was repressed by the arrival
of a military detachment
"On the 3lst OF MAY there was a
later outbreak at Colombo, which
subsequently spread south. Martial
law has been proclaimed in the west
ern, central. southern, northwestern
and Sahara Gamuwa provinces.
"On the 3rd of June the governor
left Randy quietly and proceeded to
Colombo, where he found the town
quiet, but the district perturbed. He
hoped to suppress the disorder in a
few days.
THE disorder is due to a sudden
outbreak of racial and commercial
animosity and is not directed against
the European population or the colo
NAL government. Much Moslem mer-
chandise has been destroyed. There
have been numerous murders and
several rioters were shot.
1.-THE latest kilograms state that
the situation Is in hand, improving"
