BY ANNA PAVLOWA

Progressing from the salutation
that closes the first figure in the
Pavlowana, the dancers next
move backward. They take three
steps, of a different sort than
those going forwards, being
shorter, and are taken with the
ball of each foot being kept con-
stantly on the floor.
From the lady's attitude of
salutation she turns toward her
partner and places her right fore
arm and hand on his left forearm.
The dancers are now standing
with their weights nearly evenly
distributed between both feet, the
lady's left and cavaliers right
arms elevated and somew1at
back of them, almost as they were
when the salutation was made.
The backward three steps are
taken as follows: The lady on the
lone" count stepping first with
the left; then, on the "two'count
bringing up the right foot so that
the heel of her slipper comes
nearly to the left instep;. taking
another short backward step on
the left foot, on the third count,
and standing quiet on the -four"
count. The body is not quite so
low as in the salutation, but 1t
must not be raised much higher
during this evolution.
There is relatively little differ
ence between the steps and move
ments of the lady and her cava-
lier. He is at her left, and when
she steps backward on her left
foot he proceeds with his right,
the alternating being only that re-
quired in their difference in posi-
tions.
After the fourth count of the
music the dancers then start on
the first count of the next meas
ure, to finish the figure with
saultation-much as the first fig
ure was embellished. This salute
is somewhat more elaborate than
the first one, requiring the lady
to swing half around SO that she
is facing her partner, whose bod
lily position is almost as much
turned toward her.
From her pose at the conclu-
sion of the backward three steps,
the lady now takes two steps, first

United States Is Among Poorest
Potato PaiSerS in Whole World

Of the potato growing countries of
the world, the United States stands
third from the bottom in yield per
acre, says the newly issued bulletin Of
the University Of Oregon entitled
Markets for Potatoes"
1t is in the method Of culture rather
than from poor soil conditions that the
United States falls behind other coun-
tries. The average yield in Germany
in 1912 for example, was 1923 bushels;
in the United States it was 1894
bushels. Longer rotation, more fer
tilization and more cultivation, and
more and better seed, are necessary to
enable this country to compete in
quantity and quality with such potato
raisers as the Germans, says the bull
letin.
Means Of bettering the general in
dustry in Oregon and elsewhere are
suggested as follows: Use of better
seed; rotation of crops; improvement
of pack; establishing system Of CO.
operative marketing.
The Belgium average yield per acre
in 1912 was 313 bushels, that of Hol-
land 2s6, that of Germany, 223, of the
United Kingdom lit, of Canada ITS,
of Sweden 173, of Japan 148, of Ar
gentine 1873. Other countries surpass-
ing the United States were France,
Chile, Switzerland, European Russia,
Austria Hungary and Spain. The only
countries falling below were Italy with
70 bushels per acre, and Australasia
with 104.

ITALIAN COAST TOWNS RAIDED BY
AUSTRIAN NAVAL and AIR FLEET

London The Austrian war office
has issued the following official state
ment regarding the operations against
Italy:
"Our fleet on the night following
the declaration of war undertook ac-
tion against the Italian east coast be-
tween Venice and Barletta and sue
cessfully bombarded at several points
objects Of military Importance.
SAT the same time our aeroplanes
threw bombs on balloon shed at Thi-
arvalla, military buildings at Ancona
and the arsenal at Venice, causing Wis
ible damage and fires"
1t is apparent from the foregoing
dispatch that Austrian aeroplanes have
virtually swept the entire eastern
coast Of Italy. From Venice, at the
head Of the Adriatic, they have made
their way as far south as Barletta, a
distance Of $50 miles, committing acts
of hostility during their progress.
The official Italian statement regard
ing the raid follows:
''It was foreseen that on the declar-
alton of war offensive actions would
occur against our Adriatic coast, with
the purpose Of seeking moral effect
rather than attaining a military pur-
pose. But we were able to prepare
for these and render their duration
short.
"Small naval units of the enemy,
especially destroyers and torpedoboats,
fired their guns upon our Adriatic
coast May "a, between a and o'clock
in the morning. At the same time
aeroplanes attempted to attack the
arsenal at Venice.
"The enemy's ships, after short
cannonade, were forced by our tor
pedoboats to withdraw. The enemy's
aeroplanes were fired on by our anti
aircraft artillery and attacked by our
aeroplanes and by dirigible flying
over the Adriatic."
