and F. A. Warren of the federal bio
logical survey at Washington.
At Long Lake. three miles from
Moffit. Uhler counted hundreds of
dead ducks, snipes. herOns. gulls and
shore birds. Death Of the birds was
due. he said. probably to alkolinc
poisoning. Ducks on the Bear River
marsh in Utah have met death by
thousands In the same manner, uhler
said. Specimens Of the dead and sick
ducks have been sent to government
laboratories for examination. Placed
IN fresh water. the sick birds survive,
according to Uhler. Extent OF the
disease and to what degree it will
interfere with duck hunting during
the fall is undetermined. Uhler
warned sportsmcn relative to taking
sick or diseased ducks.
The two men will make surveys Of
Arrowwood, Spiritwood and Jim lakes
and others in the county. They spoke
favorably Of surrounding lakes as bird
refugees. The survey is being made
In connection with legislation passed
by congress which will provide migra-
tory bird refugees in northwestern

air attacks from all sides.
DR.. Kern OF the Carinthian Anti
Air Attack association said that there
existed about 100 different kinds o.
war po.-ons. but only about 10 o!
them we're known to the general pub
lie: the blister-raising, the corrosive
the nerve paralyzing. and he tear
gases. To all Of these. he said,
there exist antidotes, but the necessity
remains to know them all and to We

Prof. Carl Hegler Of st. Georges

ence in treating the cases OF phosgen
poisoning arising from the catastrophe
there a year ago. He said that Of the
800 victims only 10 died, the others
being saved by treatment which must
be rapid to be effective.
Prof. Robert Pschorr of the Char
lottenburg technical high school said
that no gas protection devices could
assure 100 per cent safety: neither
would a locked door keep out a bur-

the German flyers come into contact

Equally exaggerated. In his views,

plosivc bombs, experience having
shown that to destroy a balloon area

bombs would be needed, which would
require the services Of 200 day ma

With CROP failure
LOOMING over Land
Normal Rice Crop in Southern
China Reported Four Mil
lion Tons Short
INTERIOR CONDITIONS BAD
Farmer Wonders Where
Winter Provisions Are
to Come Fr IN

Canton, China. Sept. 6.-F9-There
will be little relief for China's starv-
ing millions this fall II the crop stat
isticians arc correct in their calcula-
tons.
This will be especially true In the
South China provinces OF KwangSi
and Kwangtung. where the princi-
pal crop. rice, is below normal. There
arc 49,000.000 people In the provinces
and the normal rice crop Is about
1000 1000 short tons.
Spring rainfall this year was Is
per cent less than average in Kwangsi
and Kwangtung. 50 the farmers have
passed through one Of the most seri-
III droughts In SO years. Large
provincial cities depending on rain
for their water supplies have faced
serious shortages Of the precious
liquid and even the British Colony Of
Hongkong endured a two months dry
spell that drained every reserve reser-
voir. Thousands went thirsty and
water was shipped In from Shanghai
and Manila by chartered steamer.
Back in the interior, conditions
were worse. And now the Chinese
farmer is wondering where his win
ter provisions are coming from. To
satisfy the city consumer, merchants
throughout South China contracted
for September deliveries Of rice from
Singapore. Siam and Indo-C China. It
Is also anticipated that there will be
a substantial increase in American
wheat flour imports, although money
spent on Injuries and foreign made
goods will be less than last year.
Estimates of the first rice crop
place the yield at between 20 and
40 per cent Of normal. Coupled with
the fact that there was 4 70 per cent
reduction in the yield Of the second
rice crop last fall, due also to drought,
the shortage this year will have seri-
Gus consequences.
Rice farmers near rivers and canals
resorted to irrigation and in their
fields the crop Is practically assured.
Such fields, however, are few and far
between and the crop they produce
will be small compared with the
amount needed.
The most lamentable fact about
the situation is that the farmer will
need two or three years to recover.
granting that 1890 and 1891 are good
years. The majority are too poor to
carry reserve seed and they farm year
after year. trusting to luck that they
will produce enough grain to furnish
food for the winter, seed for the next
planting and. II extremely lucky. q
surplus for sale.
