INJURY BY. SCAB
IN MANY STATES
Investigations in Progress to
Learn More About Serioue
Disease Of Wheat.
NO SATISFACTORY CONTROL
Best obtainable Seed Should Be Used
and Thoroughly Cleaned and Treat
ed by Formaldehyde Method
Clean Up Waste Places

prepared by the United States Depart.
ment Of Agriculture.)
Investigations are in progress by the
United States department of agricul-
ture, in cooperation with number OF
state experiment stations and individ-
ual farmers, to learn more about
wheat scab and methods Of controlling
it. ~.
No entirely satisfactory control of
this disease has been developed, be-
cause the scab fungi develop on SO
many different kinds of grains and
grasses and on cornstalks, stubble.
straw and other trash. Two things.
however, are regarded as important.
First, the best wheat obtainable should
be used for seed. This should be thor
oughly cleaned and treated by the for
maldehyde method recommended for
r the prevention Of smut. Second. this
wheat should be sown on thoroughly
plowed land-land where the old corn
stalks, wheat stubble and grass straw
have been entirely plowed under. This
can be accomplished by use Of drag
chain. All grass and straw should be
burned or otherwise removed from
hedges. fence rows. fence corners and
nearby waste places. These waste
places should be either plowed or
burned of. IT,:
Wheat scab Takes Heavy Toll.
Winter wheat everywhere east Of the
Great Plains was heavily infected with
scab this year. Spring wheat also suf-
fered greatly, and many spring wheat
delds were left uncut, due chiefly to
the ravages Of scab. The states suffer
ing the greatest losses Of both spring
and winter wheat include Missouri,
Iowa, South Dakota, Minnesota, Wis
consin, Michigan, Illinois, Indiana,
Ohio. Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virgin
ia, West Virginia, North Carolina,
Kentucky and Tennessee.
This disease of wheat is caused by
several different fungi which attack
the crop at various stages Of develop
ment. The seedlings are blighted, the
roots rotted and the plants weakened
to such an extent that they are win
ter-killed. The heads are blighted, the
diseased parts die and prevent the for
nation of well-1illed kernels. The head
blight is the most evident and in most
cases causes the most damage. Wheat

League Of Nations Offers
 Ireland Her Independence

should be marred by politics." said Senator Phelan, who gave to the Senate a message from Eamonn De- Valera, President of the Irish Re public, urging that the Irish ques- tion be not dragged into the "mire of American politics"
 ''In conversation with President DeValera," said Senator Phelan, he emphaticaIly declared that he trust ed the holy cause to which he had pledged his life and honor would not be dragged into the mire of Ameri- can party politics, but that the entira American nation, with one acclaim, pursuant to its immemOrial prin- ciples, might declare for the freedom of brave and generous people"
 Of Ireland and it's hope through the League of Nations, Senator Phe- Ian said:
 The world war, which dIsmem- bered the Germanic and Austro- Hun garian empires. required the confer ence to immediately create new and Independent States, which were with out government or organization, and this principle having been established with the conclusion of the peace and the establishment of a League of
 
 independence. England will have less reluctance to give Ireland sels-de- termination when she is thoroughly committed to the principle by the ac- ton of the conference with respect to other smaller States. and when under Article x of the covenant she will be assured that the League of Nations will prevent Ireland from being used as a base of operations by a n enemy. Ireland herself, once free. viii have no incentive to permit the trespass of aforeign power on her soil She would join the league and thus be protected without raising an army or navy against external aggression When free the logic of the sf-ua ton vii bring about a close commercial union between England and Ireland. because England is Ireland's nearest and best market" 7"

PRISONERS OF PARIS WERE
 MASSACRED
JacUbius Respected Nobody In Human Destruc-
 tion.

On Setempber 2, 1702 the prisons of Paris, filled with nobles. ecclesiastics and opulent citizens, suspected of favoring the court and aristocratic party were thrust open and the in mates ma-ssacred to the number of 10000. during this and the following day Neither sex, rank, age. nor beauty was respected by Jacobins who urged the expediency of destroy ing these persons.
 The ''JacObius'' were a club of ra- dical democrats during the French Revolution. Their adversaries called them "JaCobins' from their meeting place,-an old Jacobin convent in the Rue St. Honore. Under the leader ship of Roberspierre they were a ter rife force in the Reign of Terror. The name has dropped over the thresh- hold of history. and today applies to any violent aEitator seeking to over throw Church or State.
 "In 17S9," says Charles Dickens. "the great people with its rush and roar bore down upon the Great Dis tress." The Great Distress, piIing up for hundreds of agonized years, was cowed, famished, naked, subjugated Y fEdICe--lIe E.eOple- The CTulltN were the State, the Court and the Church. And the French Revolution was usn- cred in by the storming of, and talk ing, of the BasJillo, the State prison of the secret cells of torture. of the centuries of the innocent ones mis- cry, the abiding place of nameless horrors. But. the People had at last arisen in their famished might, and the world itself trembled
 Vengeance and retribution require a long time. It takes a long time to store the earthquake, and to make the lightning. But the storm comes on apace.

Washington, D. C., Sept 2.-The principle established in the League of Nations will pave the way to Irish In- dependence, declared Senator James D. PheIan, Democrat, of California, in a recnt speech in the Senate.
 Senator Phelan, although a Cali fornia native son." is of Irish ances- try and is one of the staunchest friends of the independence for Ire land in public life in America.
 The California Senator's speech to the Senate on the question of Irish freedom was to protest against at tempts that have been made in Re publican circles to make the Irish question a partisan question. to make it a football of politics" To this Senator Phelan and other real friends of Irish freedom are strongly op- posed.
 After reciting efforts of Republi- cans in Congress to embarrass the President in his fight for the League of Nations, the hope of small na- tions everywhere, by injecting discus sion of the Irish question into sub jects to which it Is wholly extraneous, Senator PheIan pointed out the in consistency of the Republicans by referring to their vote on a reso- lution of sympathy for Irish political prisoners passed in the Senate in 1916. It was resolved:
 That the Senate expresses the hope that the British Government may exercise ClemenCy in the treat ment of Irish political prisoners, and that the President be requested to transmit this resolution to that gov ernment.'
 The resolution was adopted by fOrty-six yea votes, Senator PheIan showed, of whom onl weight were Re publicans. Of the nineteen nay votes, only three were cast by Democrats, ehe showed.
