Insect Market Is Open.

The season of singing insects is
here and the buzz and whirr from
the checkeFboard stall of the insect
dealer is heard at every street fair.
It is said that these tiny pets now
on the market are bred for this spe-
cial purpose and that the business in
insect breeding is a profitable pur-
suit.
The following table shows at a
glance the market prices being re-
ceived for singing insects OF various

More Wireless Mnnders.

A recent number of tho ] .ondor
Times brings US the details OF more
wonders attained In wireless teleg-
faphy during recent experiments
carried on at ,Woolwich for the
British army. Some of the irstf,a-
ments in use there have sent r7es-
sages at the rate OF over a thousand
words a minute. the normal sr"od for
the system being $50 words per
minute. Receiving machines are
capable of taking these messages as
fast as they can be sent. Perfection
has almost been attained in provid-
ing against interference with such
messages by others than those for
whom they are intended.
Ore machine OF recent Invention
enables the receiver of messages tc
cut all waves but those he wishes to
hear. He can also employ it to in
crease the intensity Of the desired
signal. 1t is claimed that the appli-
cation of some of the appliances Al
W6olwich to the transmission OF
press messages would revolutionize
daily newspaper journalism. Ac-
cordjng to the Times it would be
possible to telegraph the news
columns of an edition OF that paper
in its, entirety to foreign countries N
about two and half hours. SIX
feet of paper tape was printed in
Morse code every second by one OF
the machines employed for high
speed tests. 1t is surely sure that
wonders will never cease.

pounds per person. The sugar beet
crop this year covers almost mil
lion acres as against the Swear av-
erage of about two-t thirds of mil
lion; and the growing condition on
July was above the f0-year aver
age. There is more than half a
million acres of sugar cane this year,
about half of which is intended for
sugar and the other half for strip,
after deducting considerable amounts
for planting the next crop. There is
a substantial increase in acreage
over last year, especially in Louisi-
ana, where nearly all the cane sugar

growing condition of the cane in
louisiana is much better than last
year but, considerably under the av-
erage for the past nine years. The
department of agriculture, which has
carried on a number of projects
looking toward making this country
self sustaining from sugar stand

agencies in protecting the crops from
insects and disease and otherwise
promoting the production anu utffiza-
ton Of a bumper sugar crop. It should
be borne in mind. however, that the
forecast for 1920 is based upon con-
ditions on July /, and the actual out
turn would be above or below this
forecast according as condition be-
tween July. 1 and harvest are better

Anglo Japanese Treaty ChaIienued bv
Advocates Of Peace Treaty.
BY Associated Press

NNsoSdtc6 OF FeaCc ] realty.
BY Associated Press.
London, July IA joint declafa-
ton of the British and Japanese gov
! ernments that the Anglo Japanese
| treaty. which has just been permitted
automatically to renew itself for an
! other year, is "in harmony with the
spirit OF the covenant of the league
OF. nations, is challenged editorially
by the Manchester Guardian. 1t is
| assailed as a typical example of
those partial and exclusive agree
| ments between particular powers
which the league of nations was de-
signed to supersede."
The Guardian says: Some pepole
may be sceptical about the latest
Anglo japanese note, but it is a most
interesting and may be an extremely
important document. The present
| Anglo Japanese treaty dates from
1911. and will run. in the normal
course. till July 1921. But the for
eign offices of the two nations have
remembered the covenant of the
league of nations. They point out
that the treaty. tho in harmony with
| the spirit of the league of nations, is
not entirely consistent with the, let
ter, and they add that, if renewed
| next year, 1t must be in form which
| is not inconsistent with the covenant
There is only one weakness about
this statement. and that is that its
opening proposition is entirely in
accurate. The Anglo japanese treaty
in all it's forms has always been en-
tirely out of harmony with the spirit
of the covenant. 1t is typical ex-
ample of those partial and exclusive
agreements between particular pow
ers which the league of nations was
| designed to supersede. 1t pledges
| each Of the contracting parties to
make war If by reason of unprovoked
attack or aggressive action the other
| finds its territorial rights or spe-
cial interests threatened in Eastern
Asia or India.
