NEW ENGLAND CROPS REPORT

Wakefield. Mass, June IA
Nearly all farm crops in New Eng
land and most farm activities are
late and slow in getting under way
due to the cold, backward spring.
Moisture has been deficient gener-
ally except in eastern and northern
Maine. There excess wet weather
hindered all farm work, Frosts were
frequent in May and to date in June,
but damage to crops has been small
because few crops are far enough
advanced. Southern New England
has Jared somewhat better than
northern regions. There have been
light showers. but much high wind.
The need now is for a good soaking
rain more sunshine and warm
weather. Cut worms have been I'M
usually numerous and destructive.
Condition of the grain crops on
June l was considerably below aver
age mainly because of being back
ward. Seeding and planting of crops
were much delayed, but a period of
favorable conditions could soon
bring most crops up to their usual
condition. Outlook for New Eng
land hay is now from IL to Is points
below average and A to IA points be
low last year. This is due to frosty
nights. cold windy days and deficient
rain. The United States hay condi-
ton is 1870 of normal compared with
1915 last year and the 10 year
average of $3.50.
New England pasture condition
June l was 1870 of normal compared
with S7.1@o last year and the 10
year average of 900. Pastures are
better in New Hampshire and
Rhode Island than elsewhere. They
need more rain and warmer weather.
June l condition of United States
pasture is 77eo of normal; last year
1890; 10 year average $3.50. Farm
pastures are almost as poor as a
year ago and are poorer than on any
previous June l during the past 81
years. They are poorest in North
Atlantic, South Atlantic and North
Central regions. Hay, too, is poor
est in these regions.
Oats in nearly all important
states have made a poor start. For

Some commission house buying devel-
oped around s1.3S for July but most
of the news at that stage was of a
bearish character, the market made
only half-hearted responses to efforts
by local bull trader to rally the
prices. A sagging tendency was in
evidence until Just before the close.
Harvesting of wheat is progressing
in the southwest and hedging pressure
is expected to be an important factor
in the market before the end of the
week.
Corn displayed considerable weak
ness. Reports Of continued soaking
rains over most of the corn belt found
buyers scarce, while commission
houses were generally on the selling
side.N Oats were inclined to lower lev
els in sympathy with corn.
Trade in provisions was exception
ally slow and without feature, the
price tendency being lower.

toiling masses against their oppres
sors.
Take the Eastern School, for ex-
ample. There are many others that
would serve just as we'll for illustra-
ton, certain similarities attach to all.
Here we find more than 1000 students
of over IS nationalities. A real melt
! ing pot. Coming from widely divergent
social strata, with religious, caste and
language barriers apparently unsur-
mountable-as only those who have
lived in the caste-ridden East can fully
appreciate. instruction is at first in
their own language and their customs
are respected. Yet in a very short
time all these artificial distinctions in
bred by centuries Of class and race
prejudices and traditions are melted in
the greatest of crucibles rae revolu-
tionary movement. And as for the
language barrier-that is the easiest
to overcome, for here we have our
practical proof of the axiom that Rus
sian is today the international Ian
guage of revolutions Mongol, Egyp-
tian, Tartar Brahmin and Sudra, Fill
pino and Chinese-aEl soon learn to
converse freely in the language-and
spirit-of Lenin.
EOR many of the students, if not for
1 most, the living and social condi-
tions of the school represent big adj
vance from their old life. For others
they represent just as great reduc-
ton. Yet this plays as. little role in
the one case as in the other, for here
they really live a classless Communist
society. Every basic need is met, in
some schools in one way, in some in
another; this is merely matter of
apparatus. Here in the Eastern school
the students get free room, board,
meals, clothing, medical attention,
bath tickets, tramway tickets, motion
pictures and theatres, plus a small al
lowance for pocket money, part of
which they pool for cooperative pleas
ures in splendidly maintained club.
In another school, such as the new,
splendidly equipped Lenin School, for
instance, the students receive more
money, with which they buy most of
the things furnished gratis in the for
mer instance.
AS everywhere in Moscow, the hous-e
ing situation is the severest problem.
In general there are now four workers
to every room, as compared with six
before the war, whens the bourgeois
enjoyed ratio of one to one. So the
students sleep in dormitory rooms con-
tanning from two to3ssixteen beds.
Wherever possible arrangements are
made for married students to share a
private room.
1t is in the social 1ife that we find
the most splendid Development. Every
school has it's club, self-administered
by the student body. Every club has
sections for the practice and study of

music, dramatics, etc. In every school

The Cause Of Conflict.
A FTER the war, the miners union

have to agree to some reorganization
of the mines if the workers were not
to be sacrificed. The. coal owners
would yield nothing. The miners pre-
pared to strike. The Lloyd George
government asked them to postpone
any action until Sankey Coal Commits
sion could study the situation and
make recommendation upon which
the government would itself act.
When | visited Wales, the Sankey
Commission had reported. The coal
owners refused to accept the recon-
mendations, and the government de-
serted the miners, broke its pledges,
behaved as if the Sankey Commission

then that the coal iffdustry of Eng

that are already at starvation level.
The miners will not permit their liv.
