Lloyds Reports Loss of Big
Passenger Ship in Genoa
New York Service.
CARRIED DEFENSE GUNS

London. Aug. l9.-The Italian
steamship Stampalia, which plies be
tween New York and Italian ports
has been sunk, says a dispatch tC
Lloyds.
The New York agents for the Stam-
palla said today that two weeks ago
they had received a cable message
advising them that all sailngs of the
steamship had been cancelled. They
express the opinion on this account
that the Stampalia had been requisi-
toned and was i'll the service OF the
Italian government In this case it
would have no passengers on board.
The Stampala was d passenger
liner of 5000 tons gross. In common
with other Italian liners, it mounted
guns for protection from submarines.
The Stampalia has accommodations
for about 100 passengers. On its
recent voyages from Italy to New
York passenger traffic has been light
and the agents in New York Of the
line said today it probably carried a
comparatively small number OF pas
sengers. Its crew numbered about

Hot Weather Boon
To Accessory Men

The recent hot spell has had its
effect on automobiling and touring,
as is shown by the large increase III
the sale OF replacement parts, tires
and accessories.
Mr.. GasSon of the Omaha Auto
Supply company. has had his force
working overtime ever since the be
ginning of the hot weather, and says
that another hot spell will mean the
exhaustion OF stock OF many items
necessary to the maintenance of the
auto.
Our stock at the beginning OF the
season was heavy" says Mr. GlaSSon
and we were prepared for a good
lively business. but We have turned
that stock now from three to four
times and it is harder to replace each
time. Many OF the factories are OK
periencing labor troubles. some hav-
ing shut down for several weeks on
account of strikes Many iron and
steel products are sixty to ninety
days behind on deliveries, owing to
inability to secure sufficient material,
and toolmakers all over the country
are four to eight months behind. The
Michelin tire factories are running
two nine-hour shifts and are still un-
able to keep up with the cver-increas-
ing demand"
On the whole" says Mr. Glasson,
the hot weather has meant much to
the tire and accessory dealer every
where, and with reasonable fall sea-
son we will close the largest and most
profitable year in the history OF our
organization

The South has been so widely con-

out as notable exception. Michigan

Malaria and Cotton
ISt. Louis Republicl

Cotton especially needs protection
from malaria. according to d. l.. Van
Dine, a Department OF Agriculture ex-
pert, who sums up the situation graph
ically in the Scientific Monthly. The
principal effects of ma alaria upon farm
ing are a reduction of the net profits
from the nondevelopment of farm lands
Mr.. Van Dine reports.
He details the results of a study made
by the Federal Bureau of Entomology
on a large plantation. Malaria was
shown statistically to handicap agri-
culture through the loss in time and
the reduced efficiency of labor at the
season when labor is most needed to
work and to harvest the crops.
The government survey covered an
estate of 1900 acres. Seventy four
tenant farmers cultivated 1,191 acres,
while COS acres were worked directly
by the proprietors. The same tenant
families were employed for work by the
day on the owners division of the plan
tation. ~
Between May and October. the critical
time in cotton raising, each one of the
families lost on the average 144 tens
work. There were log cases of malaria
in 1913 persons out OF total of 800
members of the tenant families. Mr..
Van Dine states as result of very
careful calculation that "in the absence
of malaria this plantation could oper-
ate with the same net returns on the
labor of 60.21 tenant families instead
of IA families required in the presence
of malaria" ST..
