Paris, July 30.
Thursday Of this week was the hot
test day Paris has known in thirty
years, the official mercury registering
at 101 degrees In the shade. It came
as climax after four Sitting days,
which drove Parisians to the terraces
for iced drinks, despite the warnings
of physicians. Paris not being used
to such heat. the citys Health De-
partment reports tremendous in
crease in the number of cases of
stomach diseases. with a serious in
crease in the number of deaths from
typhoid. Ambulances have been busy
night and day handling prostration
cases.
From all parts Of France there con-
tinue to como reports Of crop devas-
tation due to the drought which has
been broken only by few showers in
the agricultural regions. This Is caus-
ing really serious food problem in so
far as the capital Is concerned, farmers
refusing to ship their negligible crop of
produce. knowing that their shipments
will spoil before they reach the markets.
AS result of this the price Of vege-
tables In the central markets is higher
than 1t was last winter when they
reached the maximum for the year. Now
the fields are scorched and cattle badly
emaciated. while. lacking refrigeration,
butchers report that whole quarters are
rotting on tho hooks, the public refusing
to pay the newly increased prices.
The city Is even considering returning
to war time milk rations. not enough
milk arriving here from the farms of
Normandy and Brittany to supply the
needs of the children. Meanwhile butter
Is selling at francs a pound. Merchants
predict that the price will 60 as high
at IL francs next week.
Country districts report that fruit Is
whitening on the trees due to excessive
heat.
Vineyard owners alone are satsfie ed,
as their 1921 wines promise to be the
finest In quality since 1880. However,
tho quantity of grapes grown is men
aced by the drought.
While the rest Of Paris was uncom-
Portable under a temperature of 1o4 this
week the Academy OF Science delved into
ancient records and discovered that hu-
mans have no need to worry over such
slight heat. as the body readily adapts
Itself to enormous extremes. For in
stance. there were the famous servants
In the ovens at La Rochefoucauld in
the eighteenth century who passed ten
minutes in a temperature of 269 degrees
while huge quarters OF beef and pans of
vegetables cooked around them.
In 1774 six English scientists re-
manned ten minutes in a temperature Of
262 degrees without coming to any harm.

After five minutes he gave the signal to

stop the flames failed Until c de-

and literally sat on the blaze.
The tank crews sprinkled water

cleared the way for the fire fight

with machine gun nests in Flan-
ders. The fire, like the enemy Of

reached the famous military en-
