Immigrants in
Sugar-Bowl Riot
NEW YORK.—A "sugar bowl”
riot broke out among the 1,750
immigrants in the Ellis Island
dining room when, for the first
time since th< war, sugar, substi
tuted for molasses to sweeten
coffee, was put on the tables. Sev
eral aliens were removed to hos
pitals, one with three fractured
ribs.
Some of the hundreds had not
seen sugar since the first months
of the war. They immediately
began to delve with their fingers
into the sweet stuff.
General attacks were launched
at a few who tried to pocket the
bowls. Before the riot ended all
guards, waiters and kitchen em
ployes had to be rushed to the
scene.
Individual sugar packages wifi
be distributed hereafter at
meals, it was announced later.
Upward Wage Trend
Reported at an End
ALBANY. —According to the re
1_ <’t of the New York State Indus
trW Commission, the upward trend
of factory workers’ wages seems to
have come to at least a temporary
halt in July. The average weekly
earnings for July was $28.49, a de
crease of 28 cents from June, the
first reported since April, and the
largest since last October. The fac
tors contributing to the reduction
cannot all be ascribed to bad busi
ness conditions. July earnings have
shown a slight reduction for the
last six years. The most conspicu
ous reductions appear in the wearing
apparel group of industries, and are
attributed to the prevailing uncer
tainty in business.
The upward trend of the retail
cost of food also seems to have
reached a halt in July. -No change
is reported in the index* of food
prices by the United States bureau
of labor statistics. Comparing the
rise in the cost of food with the
rise of the average weekly earnings
since June. 1914, the increase In re
ta'l food prices is 121 per cent as
against 124 per cent in earnings.

Profit Around $35,000
On 85 Acres of Tobacco
BY HOMSR LEGG
LINCOLNTON, Ga. —In studying
the soil of this section, it occurred
to L. H. Ward, a well-known and
successful farmer, that Lincoln
county was well adapted to tobacco.
Accordingly, he made a trip to the
tobacco belt of North Carolina the
latter part of last year, and got W.
T. Currin, of Oxford, Granville coun
ty, N. C., a tobacco grower of expe
rience, to visit Lincoln county. Mr
Currin examined the soil and as
sured Mr. Ward that it is admirably
adapted to the growth of tobacco.
Mr. Ward then secured the services
of Mr. Currin to grow a tobacco crop
for him on his farm near Lincoln
ton. The crop was grown, is now
almost harvested and the result is
gratifying. crop in the field and
the tobacco already cured is a de
light to behold.
I visited this tobacco farm and
was shown over the crop by Mr.
Ward. In answer to my questions
he said:
"I have aoout eighty-five acres in
tobacco. There are two of my neigh
bors, Albert Zellars and Otis Wright,
who are also growing tobacco. I
commenced putting out seed beds in
January, having in all about one
acre in seed beds, which produced
about 400,000 plants. I placed plant
covers over the beds and let remain
about a week before transplanting. I
mixed the seed with 8-3-3 fertilizer
and cottonseed meal, one pound each
to the square yard, and brushed the
seed in. I top-dressed with nitrate
of soda and cottonseed meal. When
plants were from three to six inches
high, I transplanted, leaving only
about three inches above ground. I
commenced transplanting April 20
and finished May 19.
“Before transplanting, I prepared
my land by turning with two-horse
plow, followed by cutaway harrow
until thoroughly pulverized. Then I
laved off the rows about four feet
wide, running furrows deep with
midddle buster, and nut in snecial
tobacco fertilizer 1,000 pounds to
the acre, then bedded up well. The
plants set out twenty-four to
’hirty inches apart. I cultivated my
crop the latter part of Juns when
signs of heading apne-ared. To keen
down worms I sprayed with arsenic
of lead or dusted with paris greefn
preparation. If this is done at first
appearance of worms, the grower
will have far less trouble. I enm
menceki priming the bottom leaves
inst as soon as they began |o turn
vellow and continued on up the stalk
f”om time to time as the leaves rip
ened. until the cron w»s gathered.
“I have ten barns. 20x22, and four
teen feet h’gh. though a grower
should really have a barn to everv
six acres of tobacco. My barn cost
me about SSOO each. The tobacco is
brought to the barns in sleighs, which
are like ordinary sleds which boys
like so well, only they are framed
up ell the way around and the frame
work lined with baggin", two sacks
or other coarse cloth. Tn gathering.

Here’s a case where the chicken’s gall and not the pulse'deter
mines a patient’s illness. In the Philippine Islands this treatment
among the natives is common. The picture shows a native doctor
finding out whether the baby is sioit—from a chicken! He kills the
chicken which he has given the child’s name, and the gall’s color
determines—so far as he is concerned—-the illness and the cure!
the leaves are carefully laid flat in
the sleighs until full and are then
drawn to the barns. After reaching
the barn, the leaves are strung on
sticks and hung on tiers j,n the barn
until the barn is full. The barn is
then heated by firing the furnace,
the heat radiating from pipes oft the
floor of the barn, the temperature
at first being at 90 degrees and be
ing gradually increased for three
days and nights until 170 degrees is
reached, when the firing should
I cease the barn should be opened
up to the air so that the tobacco
may take on moisture, in order that
it may be handled without crum
bling. The tobacco when sufficiently
moist is ready to be taken out, graded
and shipped. The tobacco lam grow
ing will be used for smoking pur
poses and for wrappers mainly, and
will bring at prevailing prices from
thirty cents to $1 per pound. I have
made from 700 to 1,200 pounds to the
acre. I expect to make between $30,-
000 and SIO,OOO, not counting ex
penses.”
When asked how much force he
had in making this crop, Mr. Ward
replied:
“I made this crop with about fif
teen plows. I also had in about an
equal amount of corn and cotton.”
I then sought out W. T. Currin,
overseer of Mr. Ward’s tobacco farm.
Mr. Currin is fifty years of age and
has grown tobacco all his life.
“Georgia will become the leading
state of the south in the growth of
bright tobacco,” he told me. “The
tobacco grown in this state of the
south is a better type and better
bodied than South Carolina tobacco.
The best bodied or’filler part goes
into thd plug. About 25 per cent of
the tobacco grown here will be used
for that purpose. Dart of the to
bacco grown in this section will be
used for wrappers, and at present
prices will bring from $1 to $1.25
per pound. The remaining
used mainly for smoking purposes,
and although It will not bring such
a fancy price will, nevertheless, com
mand a good price. A man can cul
tivate tobacco as easily as cottom
though he should put ip only about
half as much tobacco as cotton. To
bacco can be grown, after the barns
are built, at an expense of about $ 5
per acre. Mr. Ward this year should
clear about SIOO per acre if present
prices prevail.
“The best soil for tobacco is the
gray or sandy soil, underlaid with
a .yellow clay! Lincoln county is
especially adapted to tobacco which
could be grown successfully, and at
least 50 per cent of the county Is
splendid tobacco soil. The soil here
is fresh, so far as tobacco is con
cerned, and not subject to wilt or
other soil dise"ses as Is the case in
the tobacco belt of North Carolina,
which has been run in tobacco for
a long period just as the cotton
lands of Georgia. I am so well
pleased with the prosnects here that
I am thinking of moving to Georgia
and purchasing a farm, .or oversee
ing tobacco farms for others. I think
it is the money crop of the future
for this section.”

SOVIET WANTS
FRIENDLY PACT
WITH AMERICA
LONDON, Sept. 16. —Soviet Russia

test of George Tchitcherin. Russian
bolshevik minister of foreign at
fairs, against the note on Russia
sent to Italy by Bainbridge Colby.
American secretary of state. Hcyoe
that America will reject Secretary
Colby’s "shortsighted policy • is ex
pressed by M. Tchitcherin, says the
newspaper, and a desire that normal
relations between the United States
and Russia may be established, de
spite profound differences in their
organisation,” is voiced in the pro
test. He declared that the soviet
government has not carried on
propaganda in countries whereit has
given a pledge not to do so. Recog*
nition that the revolutionary move
ment of workers in every country is
their own affair, is accorded by M.
Tchitcherin, who adds:
“Communism cannot be imposed
by force and the fight for com
munism must be carried on by the
masses themselves. In America and
many other countries workers have
not ’assumed power, nor are they
even convinced of the necessity of
such a step.”

Not very ladylike to poke your thumbs into a fellow’s eyes, but

BY EARL WIGHT
(Unversity of California Expert.)
The assailant comes toward yo uin an attempt to strangle or
overpower you by wrapping his arms about your body. 'While his
hands are at your throat or his arms are about your body strike
hijn sharply with the heel of your hand under his chin and push
him back. If his resistance is too strong for this, the thumbs of
your hands may be slipped into the sockets of his eyes, where by
a very slight pressure you can force him to give way. These are
simple devices that are usually effective.
Razing of Hun Forts
On Heligoland Isle
Will Require 3 Years
LONDON, Aug. 31.—Many inter
esting details of the demolition of
the fortresses on Heligoland are fur
nished by a special correspondent of
the Daily Telegraph who made a
trip to the island. Heligoland had
been transformed by the Germans
into something very like a station
ary ship of war.
From one end to the other the is
land, which is little more than a
mile long and only about one-fifth of
a square mile in area, was tunnelled
and honeycombed^with subterranean
chambbrs. In these were accommo
dations for every one and everything
needed to fight the fortress —apart-
ments for officers and men, hospi
tals, engine rooms and storehouses.
If the island had been in <a serious
action, not a single man need have
shown himself in the light of day.
Three years is the German esti
mate of the time required to dis
mantle the fortress completely', and
apparently the entente has accepted
the estimate as reasonable. The
shortage of special apparatus and
the need of caution in -the use of
high explosives are the retarding
factors in the demolition.

tons of steel works must be picked

coriipared to the tremendous work of
breaking up the concrete. Os this

iron rods as big as a man’s finger,

In the dissection of the guns and
armor plates, a new oxyhydrogen
process is being employed. It is a
German invention and was first put
into practice only a few months ago.
The flama by which the cutting is
done is so hot that it bites Its way
through the center of the breach of
twelve-ton gun in about a minute.
By this process the armor plates
of the turrets and cupolas on Heli
goland are being cut up into practi
cable sections and the guns into
lengths of three or four feet each.
With steel at its present price, the
debris will realize a large sum, al
though the cost of transportation to
the mainland will be heavy.—New
