On Strefcher to Prison

PARIS, Sept. 3O-The arrest of Bolo
Pachs and the disclosure of tangible
evidence as to the source of enormous
sums expended in France to corrupt
the press and organize propaganda of
depression and encouragement among
both civilians and soldiers have ere
ated great sensation. but at the same
time feeling Of relief that the scan
dOwhich has been clouding France
for many months was on the point Of
being cleared up.
Captain Bouchardon, examining ma
gistrste for the court martial of Bolo
Pacha. charged with having relations
with the enemy. after examining the
Levantine suspect for two hours. de-
cded that. although he had been i'll.
his condition would permit his trans
fer 70 prison. A private ambulance
conveyed him to Fresno Jail, where
he was placed in a hospital cell,
Il is now said Bolo Pscha received
about S2.000.000 from the Deutsche
Bank. In transfer the sum was divided
into several parts, passing through a
number Of hands before Il finally
reached a New York bank. By that
time all traces OF its origin had been
lost.
When Bolo was moved 70 prison he
was wrapped in blankets, his face COW
cred with a white cloth. lie was car
ried on a stretcher from his room in
the Grand Hotel, by way of the bag
gage elevator. As he was borne
through the door a crowd OF about
1000, which had collected when it be
came known that he had been arrested,
gathered around the ambulance, shout
ing, Death 70 the traitor. Throw him
into the Seine! Kill him."

Nofurther Official information has been
given out :n regard TO the contents of
90 rablrgrams from thc United states
concerning the activities Of Bolo Pacha,
but the "Matin" says the messages con
tained the results OF the investigation
made by the American police in regard
10 various banks. and that financial in
stitutions in New York and other cities
were listed in connection with pay
ments made on behalf Of Bolo. The
newspaper says that in 1916 more than
s2,OOO,OOO was paid by the Deutsche
Bank Of Berlin on behalf of Bolo. q

TO him b. transfers 10 a French bank.
The "Matn" adds that nine American
banks figured in these transactions and
that the American police have been
able 10 make out list of names of
persons in America to whom checks
were drawn by the Deutsche Bank, with
the intention Of making payment to Sc
cret German agents in France.
One Paris newspaper asserts that i
has evidence that DR.. Alfred thinner

tary, passed upon the proposition 70

HOROSCOPE.
Thursday. September Q, 1917.

During the busy hours of the day
the influences are rather unfavor-
able but in the evening the sway is
fortunate. Mercury. Uranus and
Mars are adverse, but in the even
ing Mars changes to benefic aspect.
1t is a very unluCky day in which
to put to the test any matter de-
pending on writing for success. Let
ters should be watched, especially
as there is a prophecy that a ma
tional sensation will be caused by
the exposure of some written mes
sage.
Uranus in evil place is believed
to encourage deceit and treachery.
Spies flourish when Uranus is un-
friendly.
Danger of disloyalty through the
influence of Uranus is seen by as
trologers who predict reasonable
acts due to misconceptions and err
roneous points of view Traitors
who believe themselves heroic re-
formers are foreshadowed.
The evening of this day should be
fortunate for all who wear uniforms
and this lucky tendency extends to
love affairs.
The seers predict for the United
States army a high standard Of
morals and even more than that a
spiritual realization that will give
them extraordinary power in time of
supreme peril.
As the year advances the King Of
Sweden may become involved in the
war.
An American invention for war
that will astonish the world is
prophesied.
Schools come under an Influence
making for many new problems, and
/ controversies over funds and expen-
ditures are indicated.
Thrift so long prognosticated by
astrologers will occupy attention in
new ways during the coming win
ter, 1t is predicted. and novel lines
Of cooperation will be developed.
The stars are read to foreshadow
a publication of morals, especially
where degenerate tendencies were
revealed.
There will be a winter marked
by unexpected events. in which class
distinctions are forgotten.
Persons whose birthdate it is will
have travel and change, which may
not be altogether lucky.
Children born on this day may be
restless and discontented, but very
talented.

SCHOOLS Open
HERE SEPT II
Attendance Increase Ex-
pected Due to Influx of
Parents for War Work.

School bells will ring out for Wash
ing;on kiddies on the 17th OF septem-
Der, 1t is probable. the originally pro-
posed date of the 18th being aban-
doned.
Superintendent OF District schools,
Ernest L. Thurston, yesterday stated
that he expects a largely increased
attendance during the coming term
due TO the influx of strangers and out
of-town people to Washington TO en-
gage in different branches of war
work. Many OF these new citizens
have children, and will enter them for
Instruction in the local institutions.
Construction on the addition to the
Chevy Chase graded school is going
forward rapidly now, and before the
new year 1t is predicted that the spa
cious and modern annex to the pres
ent site will be finished and ready for
business" This will tend to relieve
whatever congestion may be caused
before that time by the number of
additional pupils in the District, as the
authorities claim that high schools
will be entirely adequate to care for
their increased quota.
No Drastic Changes
There will be no drastic changes in
the course Of studies this year as COM
pared with last-increased facilities for
manual training work being the prin-
cipal new departure. This Is not de-
signed as a war measure" but SIM
ply to prepare boys and young men to
hold down" jobs requiring special
knowledge and mechanical skill. A
very slight amount of change will be
made in the regular curriculum, but
so far no announcement has been
made on this subject as the officials
are still working out the details.
Turning down the plan to be car
ried out in some of the large cities OF
abolishing the German courses in pub
lie schools, men in charge OF local
education state that they see no suf-
hcient reason to alter their courses at
the present time.

WESTERN CANADA LEADS
As WHEAT PRODUCER
342,O0O,OOO Bushels Wheat In
1915; In 1916 Many Farm
ers Paid for Their Land
Out of Their Crop.

That Western Canada Is indeed
mistress of Wheat" to the extent thht
it's 1915 crop exceeded, acre for acre.
the production OF any country on this
continent is striking fact proved by
the following figures:
In 1915 the Dominion OF CANADA pro-
duced 37GOOO,OOO bushels OF wheat
which represented an average yieid Oh
20 bushels to the ncre. The United
States produced 1.O11 10000 bushels.
yield of II bushels per acre. The only
serious competitors in wheat produc-
ton I'm South America were Argentine
with 1921 900 bushels. or less than
II bushels per acre, and Chile. with
100000 bushels or 13 bushels per
acre.
The three Western Canadian prairie
provinces of Manitoba, saskatchewan
and Alberta produced between them
342 OOO,O 900 bushels out OF the total "a
madam 37G.OOO,OOO bushels. 1t Will be
seen, therefore, that. outside OF the
United States, Western Canada pro-
duced considerably more than the com
bined production of North and South
America Canada is of course new
settled country, and the fact that the
crop of the United States was prhcti-
cnlly three times as much Is no dis
ouragemcnt. The United States has
mt present more than twelve times the
population of Canada In approximately
the same area.
To illustrate further the greater pro-
ductivcness of Western Canadian land,
we submit the following figures, show
Ing the 1918 yields per acre In the
three provinces OF Western Canada
and in the states which In that year
produced the greatest quantity OF
wheat The figures are taken from the

Fertilizer Distributor.

fertilizers are extensively used In the
production Of truck-crop potatoes.
particularly on the Atlantic seaboard.
II they are supplemented at all 1t Is
by growing crop Of green manure
upon the land the previous season and
turning 1t under so that 1t will become
thoroughly decomposed before the po-
tatoes are planted. For this purpose,
soy beans, cowpeas, or velvet beans
are chiefly used. These should be
plowed down the previous fall as soon
rs they are sufficiently mature.
AS little farmyard manure is avail
able in the southern states where the
early crop OF potatoes Is chiefly pro-
duced, this seldom enters as factor
in the production of the crop. Com
mercial fertilizers Of nature espe-
clally adapted to the potato crop form
the chief reliance Of the growers. A
fertilizer carrying to 4 per cent Of
nitrogen, 6 to per cent of phosphoric
acid, and s to 10 per cent Of potash
is used at the rate of 500 to 1900
pounds to the acre, depending upon
the crop which Is to follow the po-
tato crop and the liberality Of the
grower.
The fertilizer may be applied broad
cast II put on at the rate Of 1000
pounds or more to the acre. When
less than 1000 pounds to the acre are
used it is almost universally applied
along the line Of the row, furrow
being opened for the reception of the
fertilizer, which is scattered by hand
or by distributor which can be used
to fertilize several rows at time.
After the fertilizer has been distrib-
uted, cultivator is run along the line
Of the rows to incorporate the fer
