IL sweet remembrance in almost
all foreign countries is Die Ber-
liner Pfannkuchen." They know these
delicacies in the districts along the
Rhine, and particularly at Shrove Tues
day. as Berlin bullets" (''Kugeln");
in England, they call them doughnuts
(Teignuesse), and in America and
other remoter countries, Berlin PAN
cakes"
This delight, it is admitted, did not
originate in Berlin. as historians tell
us that the ancient Romans knew
composition of -four, baked in fat,
something like our jelly pancakes, but
not nearly so nice. The Berlin variety
was introduced into Germany as spe-
cial Wand for Shrove Tuesday. and
soon achieved a widespread popularity.
The first Berlin Cook and Table
Book" published $50 years ago by the
court physician, Johann SigiSmund
Elsholz, refers to these connections as
"Placentae Minores," or little delecta-
tions." and announces at the same time
that this method of pastry baking Is
really new discovery" though his ac-
uuaintance with Latin literature should
have instructed him otherwise. To COM
memorate the inception of this culinary
success. the venerable confectionery
house of F. w. Gumpert is arranging a
pancake Jubilee, which will include the
exhibition on the KoenigstrasSe of a
cradle composed Of 100000 Berlin pan
cakes. The press has been especially
invited to the event, under the personal
supervision of the Messrs. Gumpert.

Natural Resources
Make Ruenox Aires Great CITY.


La Prensa, Buenos Aires.-In the last
formed from a comparatively insignifi-
cant market town to one of the most
important and splendid cities of the
world This Is largely due, not to its
political prerogatsves, but rather to its
geographical situation, as it is not only
wonderfully endowed as a natural sea-
port, but is also the terminus of two
great rivers, the Parana and the Uru-
quay, which unite to form the Rio de la
Plata.
At present the port of Buenos Aires
consists of three sections: Riachuelo,
the old port, and the new port. Two
wide channels lead from deep water,
and flags of every nation come to the
doorstep of the capital There are
wharves aggregating IL kilometers q
niles in length. At one dock, a dozen
ocean liners can be loaded or unloaded
simultaneously. Harbor dues and assess
ments were 10000, 900 gold pesos in
1880. though the tonnage of the three
previous years was not equaled
In the month just closed 218 transat-
lantic vessels entered and 216 cleared

Needed to Bolster Country.
Ell Mundo AL Dia, Bogota.-There has
long been a prejudice in this country
against the introduction of foreign CAPT
tai. and the granting Of foreign con-
tracts But the depression of the last
year has made it Enthusiastically clear
that if we are to attain any important
position in world trade or internal pros
perity we must be willing to delegate
to exterior influences and interests the
opportunities we have failed to improve
ourselves.
If our own energies and abilities are
not sufficient to develop our unlimited
natural resources. and to build up
profitable national and international
trade. then we must no longer resent
the intrusion of foreign capital and
supervision in these developments.
We will benefit far more from exter-
nal cooperation than from internal
lassitude, and our acceptance OF foreign
aid should be spontaneous and cordial
rather than marked with reluctance
It has long been the policy Of our gov
eminent TO exclude those who wished TO

And this is the story of another Rus

Small rewards. But the spirit held, and
so, little by little, here a step ahead and

growing into the man of industry and

way, learning to write, little, about
that of which he was so full and over
flowing. To write of his people, the
Jews, for whom his mind and hands
were open to their greatest extent. All

narrowness and bigotry! 1 know. But

Plant On New Land
The farm advisor states that DIR.
Porter is also striving to perfect a
variety that will be resistant to the
deadly watermelon wilt disease. He
now has wilt resistant watermelons
but unfortunately they are of very
inferior quality. Eventually h C hopes
to have a wilt resistant melon of
desirable quality.
Watermelon wilt disease lives over
in the soil for years or more. Ac-
cording to Beyschlag the only way to
prevent loss from this disease is to
limit paintings to fields which have
not previously grown watermelons
for six or eight years. 1t is not safe
to plant watermelons on land which
recently produced this crop even
though this crop showed little or no
sign of the disease. The farm advis-
or urges that only new land be used
for planting this new early Klondike
strain as well as for paintings of
the regular klond!ke or other Vari-
etieS

Small packets os an early strain
of Klondike watermelon are being
distributed to growers by the farm

Beyschlag. farm advisor. there is
only a limited number of these pac-

ers of early watermelons who desire
TO try this melon are urged to COM
rhunicate with his office at once.
This early Klondike melon is be-
ing developed under the direction of
DR.. D. r. Porter of the Division of
Truck Crops of the University of
California at Davis. Beyschlag
states that Jack Bros. and McBur-
ney made a cooperative test west of
Westmorland last season of number
of the university's strains in COM
parison with the commercial Klon-
dixie. The strain which is now be-
