Potato Blight Cure
Will Help Solve Food
Problem of Europe

st. Adams. England Jan, L.
Samuel RYDER. head Of n big seed firm
here, says he has found a man who
had abolished potato blight, thereby
solving a problem which has troubled
British agricultnrists since the days
Of Raleigh, and probably American
farmers a longer period than that
The scheme Is the result Of n new
hyhridized seed. The discoverer was
paid $4,000 for less than half a peck
of these seeds
1T will he great discovery for the
world said Mr.. Ryder. '"rhe average
WELD in 1915 was four tons per acre
four pounds 10 the root was a good
average. With the new seed six
pounds to the root. or thirtt-threa
tons per acre. Will be possible. But
the full results may not be reaped for
two or three years yet"
Such a discovery. If practical, will
be of invalua bic service to hungry

BY JOHN ERNEST HoDesoN.

Idski with the Don cavalry, Jan.
Ii have inspected and talked TO
many bolshevist prisoners They
nearly all say that they were modified
by the reds, and that they are un>
willing participants in the fight.
They tell re that the result of a
deliberate red starvation policy has
been to bring the people Of Petrograd
tn such stage Of physical exhaustion
that rising on their part IL unthink =
able Lenine has told his soldiers that
all the English troops in Russia have
been crushed and thrown out. and
all prisoners express tho greatest sur
prise at seeing members OF our mis-
sion,
A hoishevist soldier who recently
spotted and recognized an English
built aeropiane gathered a few of his
friends round and told them that i.e-
nine was lying. He was betrayed as
counter-revolutionar and murdered
during the next night.
These prisoners tell almost incred-
ible tales of bolshevist methods of ad-
ministering justice. Az one village
near Liski a woman laid COMPLAINT
against 81" COW for having eaten her
washing which had been hanging out
to dry. The COW was brought before
the soviet tribunal and formally
charged with the crime.

which ran into several days. was heit,
for the purpose OF deciding on whom
sentence should be pa sxed, the COW or
the cows owner. AS Denikene's troops
carried the town on the fourth day.
the tribunal dissolved, leaving the in
teresting question still unsolved.
Captured bolshesiks are relegated to
three categories-first. men who vol
unteer to fight against soviet powe,
and who are at once re-equipped and
put into the Don army: second, men
who do not volunteer, and who are
sent to the base where they are treat
ed leniently as erring brothers; third,
Chinese and Lettish rncrcenaries, who
are instantly killed.
Captured red officers are tried by
fury of their own men who are In
the Don arhiy's hands, and ara dealt
with in accordance with the way In
which they have hitherto treated both
their men and the civil population
Almost all are condemned to death
This method OF testing hoiHhevixm's

IL is a grim lesson to those who are
tempted to phitandcr with the red
creed.

The NavipenduIum.

One of the problems which naval
architects have to confront is the roll
ing of ship on the waves, and the
"navipendulum" is an invention for
dealing with it experimentally.
The apparatus consists of two
parts: A plate to which a motion cor
responding to that of portion of the
surface of wave is impaired and a
pendulum of a peculiar shape which
rolls upon the moving plate In the man
ner of a vessel supported by water.
The same pendulum can be made
TO represent different vessels of given
size and shape by adding or removing
artificial resistance to the oscillatory
motion.
This instrument has been employed
TO study the rolling Of the Italian bat
tleships as well as those of other
countries.

DRAWN WITH MASTER HAND
Walter Scott's Portraits of the Past
Notable Contribution to Eng
Iish Literature.

No wonder that Walter Scott, who,
having shown the world in the Min
strelsy and the Lay that he was ed
itor and poet, and being himself
novel reader should be utterly dissat-
isfied with the quality of the existing
supply. The French Revolution. dis
tinguished by its eveling principle and
action. had ended in substituting
feudal empire for an effete monarchy;
and even when Napoleon was redivid-
ing Europe into kingdoms and princi-
palities for his family and his follow
ers, there had sprung up-or rather
revived-a deep devotion to the chiv-
airy which had done so much in the
past, and whose traditions had in
grated grace into history and breathed
reality into song.
To this feeling, this principle, Scott
had ministered in his poems; and now,
acknowledged head of the romantic
school, he resolved to extend its linn
its, beyond the. ballad to the narrative
poem and use prose as the more suit
able medium. He strOve to delineate
the past as it seemed in the eyes of
men who were dubious of the present
and afraid of the future-nOble, state
ly glittering and gay, with the pulse of
life ever beating to heroic measures.
His view of feudalism in "The Tails
man." "Ivanhoe" and 1.-THE Fair Maid
of Perth" was not the caricature
few preceding authors had drawn, but
a portrait-faithful if idealized.-
