HOLLAND LEADS ALL NATIONS
In Scientific Agriculture That Country
Has Far outoIsssed the Rest
Of the World.

Holland has done more than any
other nation, perhaps, in the way Of
increasing crops by scientific agri-
culture" said DR.. II. o. Hayden, an
agricultural expert, who has spent
several years in the Dutch East In
dies, at the Willard, according to the
Washington Post. ''This is observ-
able particularly in the Dutch pos
sessions Of the East Indies, particu-
larly in Java and Sumatra. A few
years ago it was impossible to get
more than one crop of tobacco in SUI
matra or Java. Now two and three
crops are raised every year. 1t is
all due to advanced scientific meth
DDS of planting and cultivation.
'"Fen years ago tobacco was the
big crop of Sumatra. About that
time experiments were made with
rubber plants, and these proved a
success. Today there are 100000
acres of land producing rubber. New
land brought under cultivation, and
fields that had been presumably
worn out through long years of to-
bacco culture were utilized for the
rubber production. Experiments re-
Gently were started to improve tea
culture, and there are now ten big
tea plantations on the island of SUI
matra. The yield of tea is enormous,
some localities showing an annual
production of 1000 pounds to the
acre. With tea at so cents a pound,
the returns are very great. Tea is
not the only new crop in that part
of the East Indies, however. Nut
bearing palms have been introduced
from Africa, and have proved sue
cess. From these nuts the product
known as palm oil is produced.
There are other things with which
the Dutch are experimenting that
promise great returns"

Germany has issued a statement in
which the intrigue With Carranza is
officially admitted, in spite of the
denialS from Mexico. II says: "The
decision to begin the unrestricted sub
marine warfare Feb. l, having been
taken, an eventual conflict with Amer
lea had to be considered by reason of
its previous attitude. The facts have
proved that the surmise was justified,
for the American government imme-
diately after our announcement con-
corning the barred zone broke off
diplomatic relations and moreover
requested other neutral powers to

MIRRORS USES ARE MANY
Apart From Its Original Purpose, II
May Be Employed in a
Variety Of Ways.

Defining a machine, we say, "a
machine is device that makes work
easier and accomplishes that work
in shorter period of time" Among
some of the simpler machines we
find the buttonhook, scissors, knife,
etc. Probably you are wondering
just how the lookingglass may be
]ikened to a machine. Everyone is
familiar with its use in the house
hold. But a small mirror is often
a very convenient machine for re-
fiecting light into dark place where
work must be done. Again, it may
be used in getting straight line
by means of reflected sunlight. 1t
is commonly used by engineers in
producing line through dense
brush, thus eliminating the work of
clearing away thick brush or under
growth. Again, by means of the
mirror and the use of sunlight, men
are able to dig deep holes into the
ground or tunnels through the
mountains. Its principles are made
use of by some of the greatest as
tronomers by rejecting the light
from the star to the eye of the OBJ
