IMPORTANT TO
APPLY SPRAY
THIS SPRING
Linn Warns Against Omitting
Dormant Spray as San Jose
Scale Spreads Rapidly in
This Section

The past season there were many
orchards in which the dormant
spray for San Jose scale was not
applied. In the packing of the
fruit last fall some scale was
found in most lots Of fruit. This
would indicate that the San Jose
scale is on the increase in this dis
trict and that the fruit grower
should give the problem Of control
very serious consideration before
deciding to omit dormant spray
this season, according to Harry
Linn, deputy horticultural inspect
or.
The increase Of San Jose scale
under favorable conditions such
as we have in this district is ex-
tremely rapid and a small infest-
alton in the spring may very cas-
lily result in the culling of a large
percentage of the crop at harvest
time.
Our standard recommendation
for the control of this insect is
liquid lime sulphur at a strength
of 4 degrees Baume or dormant oil
a percent actual oil. If it is in
tended to control leaf roller at the
same time 6 percent oil spray
should be used.
Thoroughness Of application
with this as well as with the cod
ling moth sprays is Of the utmost
importance

Eiffel Tower Profit
Is $ll4,72O for Year

PARIS, France.-Many Americans
who have visited Paris have taken the
sightseeing trip up the Eiffel Tower
and enjoyed the spectacle of the lights
OF Paris appearing at dusk. But they
never thought Of the Eiffel Tower as a
moneymaker, which 1t is.
During the last year more people
than ever have gone up in the air, via
the towers elevators And many even
walked up and down. One or two
jumped, but that is another story.
During 1881 net profits were sll4, ,720,
as compared to s81 500 during 1880. A
dividend Of $40 was paid, as COM
pared TO 81 the previous year Profits
are made on trips to the various plat
forms, on restaurant and novelty con-
cessions and on huge electric signs all

concern. The biggest expense is for
the difficult and dangerous job of paint

Africa-A World Tinder Box


the African colonies not as homes for
white settlers, but as sources of min
erals and other raw materials, and the
native inhabitants, again, as laborers.
Lastly, there are the independent
states of Ethiopia and Liberia. Ethiopia
today shows promising signs of ad-
vance and improvement, but Liberia,
without outside assistance, is sinking
into decay and a barbarism worse
than the jungle knew before a single
white man set foot on the African
shore.
Egypt Near Independence.
Egypt, racially separate, Is on the
brink of independence. She will then
have her own colonial problem In the
Sudan, with its Negro tribes-unless
the British succeed in their avowed OBJ
ject of detaching the Sudan from
Lower Egypt and ruling 1t as pro-
tectorate.
In the Sudan the British system of
administration is in the best colonial
istrators controls vast areas, not for
the direct advantage of the imperial
power, but primarily for the benefit
of its primitive peoples. This colonial
system prevails in the British posses
sions In West Africa, where the ad-
ministration is either direct, as on the
Gold Coast, or indirect through native
chiefs, as in Nigeria. The inhabitants
are encouraged to become landowners
and to rise In the economic plane
they are being educated-and all this
with highly satisfactory results. Here,
and indeed in the French, and, in the
later years, in the Belgian colonies, Is
q happy example of what all Africa
might have become but for the land
hunger of white settlers or the desire
for profit and dividends by European
commercial and financial interests.
In reviewing the systems of govern
Africa 1t is necessary also to refer
to the mandates for the former Ger
man colonies held by England, France
and Belgium. One OF the main rea-
sons put forward for this virtual an
nexation of former German possessions
was that the Germans treated the ma
tives badly and that Germany herself
was not fit to have charge OF back
ward peoples.
In the war atmosphere prevailing at
the time the peace treaties were drawn
up, this kind of argument was accepted
by public opinion. In point Of fact.
German administration was certainly
better than the Portuguese and not in
ferior to the Belgian system prior to
certain reforms that have been intro
duced into the Belgian colonial admin
istration. German administration in
Tanganyika was better than the British
system of government which has pre-

Claim of Gold Found
I'm Animals Ridiculed

PARIS.-Not only in politics but in
science also French and Germans do
not agree. The latter declare that the
human body contains Scld; the former
ridicule the idea.
Prof. Otto Berg, a German, having
announced that he had found traces
of gold in the bodies of animals, as
much as IA milligrams in one kiloRrarn
of OK brain, Gabriel Bertrand, chemist
Of the Pasteur Institute in Paris, re-
peated the experiment. In a report to
the French Academy of Sciences he
asserts that the German scientist is
wrong and that gold Is not to be found
either in animals or In plants In other
words, the goose that lays golden eggs
Is scientific impossibilsy.
The Frenchman goes further and sug-
gests that what the German mistook
for gold was really platinum removed
by his acid reagents from the capsule
Of that metal used in the analysis.

b1 COhDn. y. M. hENWOnIhI.
|HE continent of Africa, with its
200,000,C00 inhabitants, should
play an important part in world
economics. 1t already is a
great market and source of
wealth and in certain circumstances,
an area from which fighting men are
recruited But, unless satisfactory solu-
tions are found for certain problems,
great part of the African continent,
in my opinion, Is destined to become
involved in a terrific war of racial
determination.
Modern anthropology points to Africa
as the land OF origin of the human
race. One of the earliest civilizations
grew and fiourished under the favorable
conditions prevailing in the basin and
delta of the Nile. Africa is now the
meeting place of three main racial
Caucasian Negro and Semitic.
On her northern shores Egypt presents
no fundamental difficulties, apart from
the problems arising out of the transi-
ton between imperialism and democ-
racy. The Arabian lands are destined
to become integral parts of the French
and Italian empires. But south of the
Sahara are racial antagonisns and the
difficulties that have arisen therefrom
wherever European colonization has
been attempted.
In large areas of West Africa and in
certain parts of East Africa the native
inhabitants are developing along well
defined lines and are rising in the eco
nomic and social scale. Here the future
is plainly mapped out. But in the high
lands of Kenya and in the British
Dominion of the Union of South Africa
racial difficulties are increasing. There
is the added difficulty, in both South
Africa and British East Africa, OF the
East Indian immigration.
Europeans first visited the coasts OF
Africa as traders and explorers. They
returned later as dealers In slaves, and
remained as settlers. With them came
the scramble for territories by the i'm
perialistic European nations during the
latter part of the nineteenth century,
which continued into the twentieth.
Today we see only two states in Africa
under independent native rule-Ethiopia
and Liberia. In case we may be in
clined to blame the imperialist powers
oyermuch, it Is as well to remind our
selves that these are the two states in
which chattel slavery is still rife In
spite Of the fact that it has been offi-
cially abolished. Liberia is certainly the
worst governed territory IN the whole
continent
Five Systems Found.
In this fourth decade of the twentieth
century five principal political and eco
nomic systems of government prevail
in the continent. First, there is the

"AUTARCHY" HITS EUROPE
AS REMEDY FOR SLUMP
New Sort of Capitalism Adopted for Eco
nomic Control Seeks to End Dis
orderly System Now in Use.

At the present time this economic
nationalism is everywhere apparent
Each country is tending more ano
more to shut itself in and to try tc
live to itself Measures whereby this
has been partially or wholly accom-
plished are high tariffs, import re-
strictions under a system of quotas
and licenses, "hygienic" restrictions
placing an embargo on certain foreign
products, gold export embargoes, fiuc-
tuating currencies, government control
of foreign exchange operations, mora
toria or standstill agreements.
The result Is that international
credit, on which the economic life OF
the last decade was based, is now vir-
tually inexistent. The foundation OF
credit, namely, confidence, is gone
International debts in large part are
not being paid. Free capital, which
normally drifts about the world in
search of either lucrative returns or
safety, now finds neither. A large part
of it is already frozen" and the rest
has no place to go.
international Trade ColIapses.
Following the collapse of interna-
tional credit has come the collapse OF
International trade. 1t has dimin-
ished month by month, until now it
is everywhere literally insufficient to
meet the needs Of the normal balance
of payments as conceived during the
last decade. In some countries it has
stopped almost altogether and in
others it is merely slowly dwindling
away
Here come forward the exponents Of
autarchy Let us not fool ourselves, "
they say. Foreign credit and trade
on the previous scale are gone forever.
Whether We like it or not, we must
adapt ourselves to the new situation.
We grant that autarchy may mean--a
lower scale of living and may require
painful readjustments on the existing
industrial and commercial set-up. 1t
is, nevertheless, preferable to such de-
presSionS as we are now experiencing.
Peoples only dimly understanding but
vigorously resenting the international
character of credit and trade and cur
rency, which, as they reason, places
them more or less at the mercy of
foreigners, lend a sympathetic ear to
the autarchists, who therefore are
steadily gaining converts.
Austria. Hungary, Bulgaria and
Greece are all facing bankruptcy and
already are virtually walled in. Fears
are widely felt that Rumania and even
Jugoslavia may be obliged in the near
future to take similar measures. Great
Britain has hastily erected a high
tariff wall France is enforcing drastic
import quotas. Spain has just de-
clared a policy of directed" national
economy. Russia and Italy, as already
said, are even now virtually autarchieS.
Perhaps the biggest test, the decisive
test, as to future trends, however, is
the case of Germany. where, in the
Hitler camps autarchic theories reign
supreme and where even outside the
Hitler organizations they seem to have
made great progress.

1t took a truck to carry the money
to the dealers Office on the other side

To add further to both the bulk and
weight of business transactions the gov

another l,800,000,000 lei In metallic
money-not gold.
The housewives say that they are kept
busy sewing up pockets, and yet the

the former bulging pocketbooks stuffed
with ragged. dirty and almost value less

price of acceptance of the American
