SECOND WOMAN;
TAKES MILLION
Leaves Wife, Accepts
Fortune for Sake
of Affinity.

Boston, Jan. 23.-Another woman
is factor in the separation of Mr..
and Mrs. Charles Garland, it was
established today. Garland is the
man who recently reconsidered a
decision not to accept a heritage of
a million dollars. After the publi-
cation of interviews with Garland
and with Miss Lillian Conrad, a
former secretary to Garland's
mother, a member of the family of
Mrs. Garland confirmed the report
that this was lone phase of an ex-
traordinary and impossible situa-
tion,' which had caused Garland's
wife to leave him. In the inter
views with Garland and Miss Con-
rad they were quoted as saying they
loved each other.
Mrs. Garland now is living at
Dedham with her infant daughter
in a house which she rented after
staying several months with her
parents. Garland is on a farm in
North Carver.

BRYCE, US.
FRIEND, Is
DEAD AT 83
British Viscount Who
Wrote Democracy in
America, Passes.

London, Jan. 23.-Civilfan and
official England today mourned the
death of Viscount Bryce of Decn-
mont, who passed away at Sid
mouth yesterday.
Announcement of the death of the
noted statesman, author and diplo-
mat was unexpected. Weakness OF
the heart intervened in his illness,
and the end came suddenly.
AS a man of letters and a public
ist, Viscount Bryce was a world
figure Outside OF his own country
he was best known in the United
States, where since the early eight
les his interests had so largely cen
tered that he was sometimes styled
an English Yankee" One remark
able thing repeatedly said of him
was that he knew America better
than most Americans. His work
entitled THE American Common
wealth." has been a standard text
book in the schools of the United
States for the last generation
the spectacle of a for
eigner instructing Americans in the
workings and structure of their
own life and laws, as De Tocque-
vile had done to some extent years
previously in his Democracy in
Was ScOtch-Irish.
The viscount was called "the
most versatile living Englishman,"
which would be true, says one bio
grapher, had he not been born in
Ireland, son of a Scotch father AMI
Irish mother, and educated in Glas-
cow, whence he went to Oxford. He
was born in Belfast May 10, 1898;
his father being the Rev. James
Bryce of Glasgow, clergyman of
the established church, and his

County Antrim, Ireland.

WORLD DEBT

BolsheviE Claim Stag
gering Sum Is Due
From Allies.

Moscow, Jan. 23.-(By the Asso-
gates to the Genoa conference will
present reparations claims there
against various European powers
and the United States. If these
claims are made in terms of boil
sheviki rubles, new names for large
amounts may be necessary, for the
familiar terms of the decimal syS-
TEN will not cover the staggering
sums claimed by this country, which
issues single bills for one hundred
million rubles, and discusses deficits
of trillions OF rubles as mere
bagatelles.
Leonid, Krassin, Maxim Litvinoff,
M. Rakowsky and scores of other
Communist leaders who probably
will go to Genoa, juggle figures with
the same Indifference that a pro-
fessional strong man shows while
tossing weights about stage.
New experts. At Genoa.
The Versailles conference mus
tered no such brigades of experts
as the Moscow government called
into service months ago and has
been training for the Communist
attack on capitalistic fortresses at
Genoa.
Every possible brand of political,
social, historical and economic eX-
pert has been drafted, and Russia
has a variety of them which has
never been dreamed of by the
western world.
Foreign debts, owed by Russia,
and the claims of other govern
be as nothing when compared with
the amounts that Moscow has
chalked up against England,
France and America The Alabama
claims; on which the United States
was successful after the Civil
war, form the chief precedent of
which the bolshevik government
will present its claims.
Claims for Everything.
Reams of documents will be pre-
sented to show the responsibility
of the great powers for the damage
suffered by Russia as a result of
the CZecho-Slovak advance in Sibe-
ria, Admiral KOlchak's unsuccess-
full movement, the Archangel expe-
dition, General Denekine's sweep
northward from the Caucasus, Gen
.eral Baron WrangeTs Crimean ex-
pedition, General Yudenitch's fiasco
in the Baltic states, Simon Pet
lura's activities in Ukraine, and
hundreds of smaller expeditions not
reported to the western world.
General Makno and scores of
other bandit leaders in Ukraine,
will be dragged into the account
ing with Poland and France. Gen
eral Semenoff, General Baron I'm
germ -Sternberg, leaders in fighting
that has taken place in the Far
East, will be revived, with other
forgotten leaders numbering in the
hundreds.

Washington, Jan. 23-The farmer
came into his own today. He heard
the president of the United States
avow that the farmer must have
longtime credits to finance his
crops and that agriculture has a
right to as much consideration By
the bankers of the country as any
other business. The presidents
address was a significant climax to
the movement which the agricul-
turaI elements of the nation have
started in the last year for better
treatment of farming interests by
the government The farmers ap-
plauded again and again as Mr.
Harding expressed not merely sym
pathy with their sufferings but d
conviction that agriculture must be
put on a business basis with the aid
of the banking facilities of govern
ment.
Notes Political Power.
Back of the presidents speech
was d consciousness o. the immense
political power which the so-caIled
agricultural bloc-a group of Re
publicans as well as Democratic
members of congress-have begun
TO WELD as a consequence of the ac-
tive demands of the farmers in the
agricultural voting districts of the
country. And while Mr.. Harding
sought to impress his hearers that
the issue was not one of a class or
bloc, it was plain that the farmer
at last had made his point and that
the summoning of the conference
itself was a notable victory. For
it is an answer to the protesting
voices of farmers for the last three
years; 4 is an effort to placate the
rebellious elements in the Repub.i-
can party which has always drawn
its major support from the farming
communities, and it is, lastly, an
effort to harmonic the peace time
machinery of the governments
banking system with the admitted
emergency of an after-the-war dis
turbance.
Congress Must Act.
Behind the discomfort of the
farmer that he has to borrow money
on short time paper is the knowl-
edge now, too, that the federal re-
serve system can hurt him i'm
measurably by passing word along
10 the banks not 10 lend any more
money. The revival of the war
finance corporation in spite OF q
presidential veto is but a temporary
affair. The present conference

The first generation of insects In the
maturing grain is usually small, and if
the grain is cut as soon as ripe

from this source will be slight.

BEST DEPTH OF CULTIVATION
When Corn Is Eighteen Inches High
Roots Will Meet Across 3Ea-Foot
Row in Friable Soil.

When the stalks of corn are 18
inches high, the roots have met across
3h-foot row in light, friable soils.
Deep cultivation at this time will cut
many of the roots and check the
growth of the plants. A good rule to
follow is to cultivate deep early in the
season, and shallow later when the
plants are larger.
