FORTY MILLIONS IN GOODS
 DORMANT IN CHINA

San Francisco. July 5-Forty mill lion dollars in clothing, purchased during the war period by Chinese merchants from American and Brit iSh firms, is today a drug on the Ori- ent market and there is no hope of business relief in the Oriental repub- lie until this immense stock of goods has been disposed of.
 This is the statement of c. F. Col Hnge, president of Collinge & Co.,, London, renowned export house, who returned here on the Japanese liner Korea Maru direct from China.
 There are over 100000 packages of goods stored at all the seaport warehouses. amounting to S40,0OO,OOO in cold cash that must be moved into the hands of consumers before busi- ness conditions in China for Amer ican and British firms improve ,'' stated Collinge.
 My calculation is that it will nec- essitate fully twelve months before the Chinese people will need goods from outside markets Until that time we can mark time or seek trade elsewhere.
 These goods were purchased at the peak of the market during the war. The turn came unawares and the prices dropped. Then followed the slump in buying power and the lowering of the exchange

8 Years ParalyZed, Operation on Brain
 Proves Curative

Denver, Ju1y5.-Luther Dionne, for many years a shoemaker of Drum mondville, Ont, has been reborn" after lying a helpless ;paralytic in a and today he is enjoying his five vital senses as the result of an ex- tremely delicate but highly success full operation upon his brain for the removal of tumor.
 In addition to the restoration of the senses of smelling, tasting, hear ing, seeing and feeling, the operation brought back to Dionne the faculty of speech.
 Dionnes recovery has been very slow, but steady, and he can now read and write and move about
 Deaf, dumb and blind and para1yz. ed in every limb, Dionne was carried into the county hospital in 1913 Food means of a tube through the nos trils. He could not feel, smell nor taste, and physicians said he could not even think.
 For months he existed in his liying death, his condition of complete in ertia remaining unchanged. Then Dr. Clarence Hall and pr. Leonard Free man determined to operate on Dion the nerve centers had been paraIyz- d by a tumor nearly an inch in di- ameter.
 The tumor was removed and the process of regeneration" for Dionne set in. It crept over his body slowly. He moved first one finger then a second and his whole hand Then one day he stirred his head and finally, the most anNously awaited sign of all came when the patient spoke.

GERMAN SCHOOLS AND INDUSTRIES FORGED BY LAW TO FORM S0vIETS

Berlin, July 5.-The soviet council, or as the Germans call it, '+rat" sys- tenn, has taken a complete hold on the social economic and educational ia hric of Germany. By law cUery factory and office must have workman's council, every apartment house has a renters council, and par entS of children in any particular school constitute a chi1dren's coun- cil.
 In Berlin Common School No. 2S3 the parents of a third grade pupil objected that their son hadn't been promoted. The teacher objected that the child had been absent more than four months of the school year. The mother took her complaint t, the chairman of the parents council. Because both the chairman and the child's father were members of the Independent Socialist party with some individual political influence the order was given to promote the pupil

Growers of fruits and vegetables
are approaching more and more the
benefits possible through organization
in marketing their products. 1t is
estimated that there are 1900
farmers cooperative buying and sell
ing associations in the United States
of which about 1000 represent fruit
and vegetable interests.
Will Find Bureau Grades Helpful.
Where the association is organized
for the purpose of selling, the
organizers often lose sight of the fact
that some standard must be adopted
for marketing their products. Indi-
vidGals or organizations will find the
recommended or proposed grades
formulated by the bureau of markets,
United States Department of Agricul-
ture, very helpful as basis for their
packs or brands.
One Florida truck growers associa-
tion adopted this past season the
cucumbers as basis for their Fancy"
and 'Choice" packs, marketing them
under their leading brand. An investi-
gator of the bureau of markets in
spected the association pack and the
individual shippers pack and advised
with them when any doubtful points
concerning grades were raised This
inspection service gave the bureau
of markets an opportunity to deter
mine in the field whether the grades
as formulated would be practical, at
least under Florida conditions.
The association packed all cucum-
bers through a central packing shed,
each growers product thus being
graded by disinterested person. This
made for uniformity of the product.
Every car loaded by the association
was approximately 4 to 5 per cent
within the grade requirements. Nearly
every car inspected outside the central
packing house was below grade. rang

NEAT TRICKS IN GARDENING
One of Best Is Laying Board Over
Row of Seeds to Start Them
and Hold Moisture.

There are a great many little tricks
that should be learned and practiced
by the gardener. 1t is not necessary
TO be a wizard to practice these tricks
but just good, common sense gar
dener. One of the best of these is the
use of board laid over the row of
seeds for few days after planting to
hold the moisture and make the seeds
start during dry weather. Another is
to flood the furrow with water and al.
low it to soak into the soil before
dropping the seeds, then cover with
dry earth. Slightly packing or firm
ing the dry soil over the seeds will
help to bring the moisture to the sur
face and make the seeds grow. Gar
den tricks are easy to perform--try

OF all the maladies that afflict hui
manity chronic dyspepsia, such as Mr..

ably the most prevalent, and hours
might be consumed in describing the
sufferings, mental and bodily, of the
victims of chronic dyspepsia.
A morbid, unreal, whimsical and
melancholy condition of the mind,
aside from the nervous physical suffer
ing, is the usual state of the average
dyspeptic, and life seems scarcely
worth living.
Tanlac, the celebrated medicine, was
designed especially for overcoming
this distressing condition and millions
of people have taken it with the most
astonishing and gratifying results. 1t

1t generally pays to stake and prune
the tomatoes grown in the small home
garden because by this method the
fruit is held off the ground and is
clean, larger number of tomato
plants can be grown on given space
and the fruit generally ripens earlier
than if the plants are allowed to grow
in the natural way. In pruning the
plants all side shoots and suckers are
removed, leaving only the main stem
with it's leaves and clusters of fruit.
1t is easy to determine which are the
side shoots and which are the young

Dried Vegetables.

is thought that these mixtures Of vege-
tables, which are absolutely water
free, might be used to great advantage
by housewives. They are quite as good
for soups as fresh material and far
cheaper. One hotel to which sample
packages were sent for trial reported
that one pound of the stuff made 125

Lawrence, age ten, for number OF
