Frost and Fruit.

Out in the valley Of Virginia smudge
pots have been used in the orchards
to prevent the frosting Of the fruit
buds. and 1t is believed that much
fruit was saved in the early part of
the week by this means. These smudge
pots raise the temperature several de-
grees, five being reported from Win.
chester. Furthermore, the emission
of dense smoke checks the formation
of frost. The fires. furthermore, cause
an upward draft which is unfavorable
to the frost effect.
AS far as the killing Of the fruit
crops is concerned, it must be borne in
mind that there is seldom a year in
which blighting cold does not occur
and yet the fruit Is never wholly de-
strOyed. Many farmers believe that
so-called killing frosts really improve
the quality Of the output. causing a
thinning out Of the buds and concen-
tration on better fruit. There are never
as many apples on an apple tree as
there are blossoms. II there were tn
trees would break. In this connection
it may be noted that what are known
as bad fruit years occur when there
are no particularly severe frosts and
that relative crop failures must be at
tributed to other causes than cold.
The chances are that this recent
freeze has not been as disastrous as
was apprehended. The fruit crop is
remarkably resilient. 1t comes to life
many times after early spring kills"
Later reports from the orchards will
indicate the amount Of damage that
has been done. but for the present it
is we'll to take comfort in the fact.

brought back strictly to a peace basis.
But there is another aspect Of the
case. In all likelihood a general cleo
tion will occur in Great Britain this
year, and the ministry does not care
to take a hand in labor disputes for
political reasons. Premier Lloyd George
Is in for the fight of his life. and 1t Is
probable that he is taking no chances.
Suggestions have already been made
that he will endeavor to win the sup
port of the labor interests for his
coalition. and if this is true the pres

a move in that game.
Complete suspension of the British
coal mines is bound to have a serious
effect upon the shipping interests, for
the greater part of the coal mined is
for ship-stoking and export. A slow.

Mexico and Capital.

A press report gives an account OF

President Obregon Tuesday. Their
presence in the country is probably
for the purpose Of investigating condi-

President Obfegon said that Mexico
offers the best opportunities and ad.
vantages to North American business
men," and assured them that the gov
ernment would strive to extend guar
antees to all fair and honest men seek
ing legitimate profits on their money"
This is to the point. Mexico needs
capital for her development, and must
seek it in America. Europe is ex-
hausted. Moreover, America is near

development Of Mexico than Europe
has. or ever will have.

years in Mexico. until outsiders, medi.

The proof of the pudding is in the
eating. Once there is evidence that a
new day has dawned in Mexico; that
President Obregon has firm hold on
the situation; that his high personal
character is being reflected in the ad.

Base ball exerts a strange grip on
mankind. No matter how great the

tions of the day. These are the topics
that enliven conversation. even in Sc
rious-minded circles.
The truth is that base ball is the
American public's safety vent. 1t is

Cuba and American Control.

Before by their squabbles the Cubans
invite us into their country again to
take charge, they would do well to
consider two things deeply
% If we should go in it would not
be an easy matter to withdraw.
Political rows that take an extreme
form are not easily composed. The
effect sometimes continues for years.
The Cubans are warm in their friend
ships. and equally warm in their
enmities. They take their politics
seriously and intensely. Hence such
row as now exists among them is full
of dynamite, and needs to be handled
right side up with care.
(2) While we remained, and particu-
larly if we should stay for good, Cuba
would not be the Cuba of today. The
island is now a paradise for pleasure
and sports. 1t is wide open. Every
thing goes. The population is largely
increased for months by the influx of
near countries who lean to high and
free living. All forms of gambling are
encouraged. and produce large rev.
enues. The revels are in progress
every day and night, and all day and
night.
The Cubans in charge of their af-
fairs are entitled. of course, to direct
them according to their own tastes.
If the outsider does not care for the
"ponies," the cards. the rich liquors,
and all the rest of it, he can stay away
from Cuba. But if America. even upon
Cuban invitation, should take charge,
affairs would have to bow to American
standards of life; and America is no
longer wide open. The Stars and
Stripes does not fly anywhere over
such conditions as exist in that cOun-
try, and public sentiment would not

Russian Revolts.

Certain figures have been published
in Paris accredited to official soviet
records from which they have been OBJ
tanned. which if authentic throw light
upon the recent apparent recantation
by Lenin of his ultra ra-communistic
principles. During the past six months.
it is stated. ia revolts have occurred
in central Russia, 249 anti-bolshevist
plots have been discovered. 4.300 peo-
pie have been executed and $4,000 i'm
prisoned. This, it will be remarked. is
only for the last half year. A full
record of all revolts. plots, executions
and imprisonments during the entire
period of bolshevik regime would prob
ably present total making the French
revolution seem like harmless family
row in comparison.
There is no reason to doubt these
figures, though they may not be spe-
officially correct. 1t is evident from
unquestionable indications that the
soviet rule is maintained by force,
that it is the object of constant attack
by the people. who are held in sub
lection only by a tyranny exceeding
that of the old regime.
Lenin's rule has been based. it would
seem. on the principle of terrorism and
frightfulness. There has been no free
election in Russia. The bolshevik or
ganization was self-constituted and has
been self-perpetrated. 1t depends upon
the army for it's maintenance. Now
and then the army has weakened and
some of the revolts have been in the
military ranks. Only by making spe-
cial concessions to the troops, grant.
ing them exemptions and advantages,
have the soviet leaders contrived to
hold loyal force together. In the
campaigns the soviet soldiers have
been stimulated by promises of loot.
Such a system cannot be continued
indefinitely. 1t is bound to break down
and when it does the bolshevik rule
in Russia will collapse. for it Is evil
dent that the people are heartily sick
of the soviet. Lenin may placate
them for while by the remission Of
the ban against individual sales. But
there are other tyrannies and AGAINST
these there will be revolt, and some
day the army will not be dependable
for suppression.

The British Coal Strike.

An reports Of the British coal strike,
Involving 100000 men, indicate a
quiet that is unusual in labor crises
in that country. The men simply quit
work and went home. The pump men
and engineers have stayed on the job
in order to keep the mines free Of
water. 1t appears that no negotiations
are in progress. owing to the fact that
the government has abolished control
Of the coal industry and now holds
that the case lies strictly between the
miners and the owners. II this means
complete government abstention from
any efforts to settle the strike the
struggle may be protracted.
Throughout the war the British gov
ernment handled all these labor ques.
tions, practically all industries having
been commandeered for war purposes.

armistice much friction developed, as

Diplomacy combines with skill
All phases of the mind and will.
Sometimes it smiles, sometimes it
chides,
1t compliments. or it derides-
It boldly utters what it thinks,
1t petrifies into sphinx-
In pride Of precedent it stalks,
In simple ways 1t humbly walks,
1t leads into the ballroom gay,
1t bids the battle trumpet bray
But soon or late. whate'er its mood,
