LONDON, July 10.-Autocratic

That was the point which British

witzerland.
The chancellor firmly refused to
ubscribe to the socialists principle

hat Germany would be able to con-
hue the war Indefinitely and this

IN the meantime there were uncon.

Editor Of Iowa Farmer Says ThCe
There 10 No Danger Except in
Consumption Of Large
Quantities.
LITTLE NEED TO WORRY
Scare Has Made the Navy Besn Tn.
popular and Has Made People
Afraid to Buy or Plant
Them.

The poison bean scare, which spread
through Iowa couple Of weeks ago
is exaggerated according to Editor
Jarnigan Of the Iowa Farmer. He
holds that one must eat Burmah beans
in great quantities to be harmed. Here
is his letter written to the Des Moines
Capital, and which will be Of interest
here:
A professor in the South Dakota
Agricultural college threw scare
when he proclaimed to the people OF
this country that five cars of Burmah
beans from India had been received
in this country by the way OF Japan.
This professor stated that some OF
these beans were on sale in grocery
stores in the middle west, that they
are poisonous, and that they were
struggled into this country by German
spies.
A good many people took the Da'
kota professor seriously and the re-
suit has been very general falling
| of in the consumption of beans.
Grocers find it hard work to sell
beans other than the pure white
navy variety, even though the high
price and scarcity of the latter led
many people to form the habit OF
eating colored beans which they find
to be equal to the navy in food
value. The scare has dtscredited
the bean industry and people who
had intended planting varieties diff
ferent from the navy or soup bean
changed their plans and refused to
grow them. Even the navy bean
came under suspicion because 1t was
heralded from the housetops that this
Nv hi cd
the navy bean, having only some
slight discolorations that differed
from the standard variety.
| Found In Seeds Too.
It is true that the shipment of Bur
ma beans reached this country, but
their poisonous contents has beer
greatly exaggerated. The statemen,
j was made that the poisonous residue
found in these beans is prussic acit
land scientists tell US that this Is true
/ but the amount of this substance II
SO small that person would have tc
eat at a single meal at least one
bushel of them and permit them tt
ferment in his stomach in order tc
get into his system enough prussit
acid to make its presence known
There is more prussic acid In the ker
mel of the peach seed that Is found N
this delicious fruit now ripening up
on the trees in the peach belt thar
there is in the entire crop of Burma
beans and yet nobody has become hys
tericaI over peach seeds, a large use
of which enters into the manufacture
of well-known flavoring extracts. Al
monds, cherry and apricot pits and
LEAVES OF the laurel abound In the
basic principle of prussic acid. but II
order to 1iberate it they must bt
crushed placed in warm water ane
,permitted to ferment. 1t is not likely
/ that the average housewife will give
Bur1nah beans or any other variety this
kind Of treatment in preparing then
for dinner.
Alcohol is made from corn, wheat
barley and numerous other farm
nroducts. but the rankest prohibition
list does not refrain from eating those
things from fear Of becoming intoxi
Gated.
