corn from the farmers, handle it, have
it milled and then transported over

as yet asked the millers' help, nor
have we seen the e1evatormen. There
are many details that we will have to
work out and this viii be the task

COLUMBIAN BERRY
UNDER EXPERIMENT

WASHINGTON Jan. 24.-Predic-
tions that the Colombian Berry. dis
covered In a hitherto UNEMPLOYED forest
region of the South American republic
for which it was named, would revo-
lutionize the American berry indus
fury In the same way that the naval
orange, also of South American origin,
marked an epoch in the history of cit
rus growing. are made by officials OF
the department of agriculture.
Extensive experiments, with the giant
blackberry, described by explorers of
the Agriculture Department as four
times the size Of the American variety,
have been begun by the division of
foreign seed and plant introduction,
which plans to distribute the new dis
covery TO farmers after determining
in what climates 1t will grow best.
In report to officials here, Wilson
Popence. an agriculture explorer who
was sent to Colombia to investigate
the discovery of the new berry by
DIR. Frank NJ. Chapman of the Amer
lean Museum OF National History, de
clared that only the extreme isolation
of the region where the giant grows
in profusion could account for the fact
that IL had not long since been given
TO the horticultural world. Plants and
seeds thus far introduced to this coun-
try were brought by Mr.. Popence from
Penon, between Sibate and Fusagas-
uga, in the department of Cundina-
marca, where the plant is said TO be
found in greatest abundance.
AS yet experimentors are uncertain
whether the berry can be- transplanted
TO this country without loss of some
of its native characteristics, because
OF the peculiar climate of the region
where il was found.
While the plant grows in Colombia
at an elevation of 10000 or more feet,
It is said to be improbable that 1t
could survive at similar elevations
here or in the mountainous regions
of lower South America. The climate
of the Colombian mountains Is temp
cred by their nearness to the Equa-
tor.
Attempts to cultivate the new berry
in North America are expected to be
most successful in the south and west
states and also along the Pacific coast.
