DRUNKEN AMERICAN GETS
JUST DESERTS-CAUSED RIOT
u. s. Naval Officer Tore Down and
Trampied French Flag and
Was Beafen.

Brest, June 30.-Two French civil
ians were killed and five American
sailors and soldiers injured severely
and others wounded in riots here last
night. Two Of the American soldiers
are expected to die.
The casualties occurred as a result
of the exchange of shots between
American military and naval police
and French sailors.
The trouble began, according to
available accounts, when an American
naval officer, who is said to have been
drinking heavily, tore down French
flag and trampled on it. A crowd of
Frenchmen attacked the officer and, it
is said, kicked and beat him until he
was unconscious.
Americans who were not aware of
the cause of the fight went to the aid
of the naval officer. The fight then be-
came general. es
A mob Of French civilians and sol
diers and sailors attempted to rush
the Hotel Moderne, where American
officers were quartered. They burned
8 sentry box and threw stones at
Americans wherever they saw them.
The Americans, it is said, retaliated.
A company Of marines was hurried
to the scene and soon restored order.
Admiral Henri Salaun, the French ma
val commander at Brest, ordered the
marines to return to their barracks
As the marines marched back to their
quarters, it is declared they were pur-
sued by mob throwing stones and
bricks.

PREVENT POTATO DECAY BY

list, University of Arkansas.
The potato crop will be big one
this year. There never was time
when something to eat was so valua-
BILE as now; when so much effort IS
being spent to produce, and to pre-
vent waste Yet in these regions OF
the country where potato storage, cell
lars and dugouts are found there is
woeful lack of appreciation OF The
first principles OF sanitation as ap-
piled to potato cellars. says the u. 8.
Department of Agriculture Some
farmers will give their best energy to
the production of the crop, and then
when the potatoes can no longer help
themselves, store them in a filthy,
non-ventilated cellar, and expect them
to be At for market when the time
comes. This is expecting too much.
Dead potatoes carry along the fun
cellars now contain rotten potatoes
left over from the frosts and decays
of last year. they are the best posi-
BILE source of attack for the new cror
Besides, the cellars become seeded
down with these organisms and make
il harder and harder to get clean.
There is nothing quite so good an
cleanliness: nothing quite so bad as
filthiness. The dryrot, caused BY

Frosted potatoes we're the original

Clean up now. don't wait until hA-.

table matter In the cellar; sweep and
brush until ii is clean. Then give 1t
thorough dose OF fungicide, either gas
or spray. The easiest and quickest
fungieide to apply is formaldehyde
gas. For each 1000 cubic feet OF
space use ten ounces OF formalin and
FIVE OF potassium permanganate. Pour
the formalin over the permanganate
in deep container and leave fmme-
diately, for the gas is given of at
once. 1t may be found, however, thar
the chemicals needed may cost too
much. Failing this. Bordeaux mix

tive too, where we'll put on; and quite

There is no way of estimating the
losses due to neglect of these things.
Yet 1t amounts to good deal, more
for some regions than others. This
loss comes primarily in rotted pota-
