DESERTI0NS FROM Jap ARMY
SHOW LARGE INCREASE

Correspondence of the Associated Press.)
TOXIC, oct. 2.-The frequency Of
army desertion, as we'll as suicide Of
some OF the deserters, is causing some
concern among the military authorities.
Statistics show that during last year
there were CSC cases Of desertion. of
which IS per cent were common soldiers.
Toxic leads other cities with 1A cases.
while there were IL cases at Osaka Out
OF the total. 3S soldiers were brought
before the military court and punished.
while SOS deserters voluntarily surTen-
dered before the three days grace had
expired.
The increase OF suicide among desert
ers Is believed to be due 70 the reduction
OF days Of grace during the war from
six to three days. the deserter sometimes
preferring to kill himself than face the
shame OF oourt-martial.
Deserters who surrender before the
three days expire are restored to the
service with q light admonition. II they
delay their return they become fugitives
and are peremptortly punished on their
arrest by the military court.

Grows Big Plants in
Bacterialized Peat

CCorrespondence Of the Associated Fress.)
LONDON, Oct. 22.-Jack's celebrated
bean stalk is likely to be rivaled by
Prof. w. B. Bottomley. who has aston
tshed agriculturists here with plants
grown in peat treated with bacteria. He
believes that the same process can be
applied to wheat growing as well.
Prof Bottomley Of Kings college in
the Strand. has been conducting his
experiments ON the roof of his college
building in the very heart Of London.
The method by which he doubles and
trebles the size OF plants and their fruit
was the result OF a long line of expert
ments. He started inoculating the soil
with culture OF bacteria obtained from
the root OF leguminous plants. Soil so
treated, It was found, greatly increased
the heterogeneous matter in the earth and
produced more nodules on the roots.
Peat was found to be the best medium
for the bacteria.
From eighteen plants fed on the bac-
terialized peat Prof. Bottomley cut sew
enty-two cucumbers weighing a pound
each after a twenty days growth. Six
teen pounds OF tomatoes were taken
from one vine.
"There are thousands OF acres of peat
in Ireland which could by bacterial
treatment be converted into a rich ma
nure and at least double the productive
ness of the soil." said the professor.
incidentally. 1t would give Ireland a
new industry for its practically mex
haustible supplies OF peat would provide
all that is required for the rest of the
United Kingdom"
The government has made a grant for
continuing the experiments.
