Had Krpt Her Bargain.
An Ingenious trick was recently
played on some women of Maulkjanj,
Madras, India. They handed sums of
money to a woman who said that she
possessed the power of doubling the
contents. The victims had their
packets returned to them after seven
days, when the sliver coins they had
contained were found to have been
changed Into copper ones.

Washington, D. C.— The lever that
will break the backbone o f high prices
o f foodstuffs is Jnore intensive farm
ing, cultivation o f unoccupied lands
near the large cities and more intelli
gent methods o f agriculture, in the
opinion expressed by Professor Milton
Whitney, chief o f the bureau o f soils,
o f the department o f agriculture. Dr.
Whitney is a leading authority on soils
and their uses and his many publica
tions on soils and their adaptation to
crop production and their relation to
food
consumption
have attracted
world-wide attention.
Dr. Whitney is preparing a bulletin
on soils o f the country and their rela
tion to the nation’s future food sup
ply. He draws specil attention to the
vast amount o f uncultivated areas of
land, the decline in the cultivated
areas compared with the rapid in
crease o f the country’s population.
“ The country is advancing in every
line,” said Dr. Whitney. “ People are
living better than ever before.
As a
result we are stronger physically and
mentally.
W e are consuming more
foodstuffs per capita than the popula
tion o f the European countries and I
would not for a moment attempt to
discourage less food consumption. It
is plain that until we get a larger sup
ply o f foodstuffs, and if the period of
high salaries continues, we can expect
the present high cost of living to con
tinue.
“ So let us touch the producing side
o f the question.
For instance, the
states north o f the Potomac and east
of the Ohio river have a total area of
12,322,880 acres. The area under cul
tivation in this territory is estimated
at a little over 40,000,000 acres. Add
ed to this is 27,000,000 acres used for
forestry. So we have over 42,000,000
acres o f idle land in the territory lying
in the states.
“ During the past 30 years the
amount o f land in use has steadily de
creased until it is now about 20 per
cent less than in 1880, while the coun
try as a whole has been growing at a
phenomenal rate.
“ The number o f persons engaged in
agricultural
pursuits in the states
above mentioned has also decreased
during the past 30 years, while the
total population has largely increased.
“ There are at present, mark you,
about 1,300,000 persons engaged in
agriculture in the area under consider
ation with a population o f over 30,-
000,000 non-agricultural producers to
be fed.
“ The bureau o f soils estimates that
the land under .cultivation in the area
can be made to yield at least four
times as much as at present by more
intelligent and intensive methods of
farming. Moreover, the same up-to-
date methods used on the idle lands
will have a yielding capacity o f over
eight times as much as at present.
“ Careful investigations conducted
by the bureau prove that these lands
are well adapted to all classes o f crops
from the early fruit, truck and vege
tables to the latest storage fruits and
vegetables for winter use, and to the
most intensive kind o f dairy farming.
“ The conditions in the eastern sec
tion o f the country are similar to those
existing in other sections. So whether
the cost o f living is to be reduced or
not, it is perfectly plain to even the
layman mind that to feed the present
and constantly-growing population of
the country a greater production of
foodstuffs must be raised.
“ To do this more people have got to
return to the farm s; it is necessary to
put more land under cultivation; more
improved methods o f agriculture, and
more intensified farming must be fol
lowed.”

38 CONVICTED IN
DYNAMITE CASES
Every .Count of Indictment Is
Upheld by Jury.
All But Two Are Members of Iron
workers’ Union—Two Ac
cused Men Cleared,
Indianapolis — The United States
government with stern and decisive
swiftness took into its possession 38
union labor officials, convicted o f con
spiracy, o f promoting explosions on
non-union work throughout the land,
o f aiding in the destruction which
brought loss o f life in Los Angeles,
and o f carrying on a “ reign o f ter-
rorr’ ’ declared to be unparalleled in
the history o f the country.
Almost the entire executive staff of
the
International
Association o f
Bridge & Structural Iron Workers was
convicted. Only two officials o f that
union now remain out o f jail.
A t the head o f the list o f those con
victed stands Frank Moran, the presi
dent.
It was o f this union, with 12,000
members, that John J. McNamara was
secretary-treasurer while he conducted
the dynamitings out o f which the pres
ent convictions grew.
The convictions, coming on a scale
unprecedented in a Federal court, were
an aftermath o f the killing o f 21 per
sons in the blowing up o f the Los An
geles Times building on October 1,
1910.
McNamara and his brother,
James B., the Times dynamiters, are
convicts in California, and his fellow
officials, former associates o f McNa
mara, are Federal prisoners here,
awaiting sentence.
Two o f those convicted were not
affiliated with the Iron
Workers’
union, but they were found guilty o f
joining with the Iron Workers’ officials
in promoting the conspiracy. One o f
these is Olaf A. Tvietmoe, o f San
Francisco, a recognized labor leader on
the Pacific Coast,
the
testimony
against whom was that he aided in
causing explosions in Los Angeles,
wrote letters about them and referred
to them as “ Christmas presents” after
the fatal explosion in Los Angeles,
and that he aided in concealing evi
dence wanted in California.
He is
secretary o f the California Building
Trades Council.
Ellensburg, Wash.— The Chicago,
Milwaukee & Puget Sound eastbound
fast freight, which was stalled in a
d rift one mile west o f Laconia, in
Snoqualmie Pass, Saturday afternoon,
was wrecked late Monday by an ava
lanche that swept down the mountain
just when the train was almost free
from the first drift.
Two locomotives were knocked off
the track and wrecked, 12 cars loaded
with Oriental imports were smashed
into small bits and 23 other cars were
buried under the snow, part o f which
is 15 feet deep.
Roadmaster W. R. Hunt was caught
in the slide and severely injured.
Snow conditions in the Cascade
mountains are the worst in 20 years,
according to railroad officials here.
The Milwaukee was completely tied
up by slides.
The Northern Pacific
refused to handle Milwaukee trains
over the mountains.
Snow plows at
Easton and Lester were wedged in the
snow.
A plow stationed at Ellensburg,
with a 15-foot double fan, released
one imprisoned plow.
A locomotive
left the rai's at Easton and turned on
its side.
A wrecking outfit left here by spe
cial train, with 95 laborers following.
A foot o f snow an hour was reported
at the summit. Lower down rain fell
and then froze, forming a heavy crust
on the snow and making conditions G ALE SENDS B AR K ON BEACH
much worse.
33 CONVICTED DYNAMITERS
RECEIVE THEIR SENTENCES
Indianapolis, Ind.— Imprisonment in
the Federal prison at Leavenworth,
Kan., was imposed as a punishment up
on 33 labor union officials convicted of
having engaged in the destruction o f
property by dynamiting over an area
stretching from Boston to Los An
geles.
As the head o f the union whose
strike was given as the motive for
promoting the dynamite plots, Frank
M. Ryan was sentenced to seven years’
imprisonment, the heaviest sentence o f
all. He is president o f the Ironwork
ers’ International union.
O f the 38 men convicted as conspir
ators and aiders in the McNamara dy
namiting schemes, eight other men
affiliated with Ryan were each sen
tenced to prison terms o f six years,
two men each were sentenced to four
years, 12 men were each sentenced to
three years, four men were sentenced
to two years each, six men to one year
and one day each, and six men, includ
ing Edward Clark, o f Cincinnati, a
dynamiter who pleaded guilty, receiv
ed their liberty on suspended sen
tences.
The elimination ro f those who re
ceived suspended sentences left 33
who are to go to Leavenworth, where
the shortest sentence will be one year
and one day.
Municipal Carline Pay*.
San Francisco— In the first day and
a half o f its operation, San Francisco’s
new municipal railway line returned
to the city a profit o f $632.75.
The
first car was sent out Saturday noon
and the receipts for the half day were
$748.75. Sunday’s receipts were $910,
making a total o f $1658.75 for the day
and a half. The estimated operating
expenses o f the road are $450 a day
and the fixed charges on the bonds
$234 a day. There is an owl service
with cars running every hour between
12:30 and 5:30 in the morning.
Painter* Fall to Death.
San Francisco— Falling six stories
down a light-well in the Whitney
building and crashing through a sky
light into the rear room o f a store be
low, John N. Crawford and Edward J.
Hannan, painters,
were
instantly
killed. Both bodies were badly man
gled and it was with difficulty that
they were extricated from the tangled
ropes and debris which held them.
The men were at work 70 feet above
_the skylight when one o f the ropes on
which the hanging scaffold was sus
pended gave way.
British Four-Master Is Wrecked—
Crew of 30 Saved.
Aberdeen, Wash.— Heroic work by
the Westport lifesaving crew was all
that saved the officers and men, 30 in
all, o f the British four-masted bark
Torrisdale, which went ashore half a
mile south o f the jetty near the en
trance to Grays Harbor early Satur
day.
It was the fate o f the vessel’s crew
to realize that they were drifting to a
most certain death for several hours
before the Torrisdale finally struck.
Seven hours’ work in a lifeboat in one
of the worst seas ever known along
the coast was the form o f Providence
that saved Captain Collins and his
men.
The Torrisdale lies a total wreck on
her beam ends and with waves dashing
over her, not more than 800 yards
from the high water line. Her back
is broken, and her crew aver that she
was leaking badly when she finally laid
over.
Chicago Drinks Less Beer.
El Paso, T ex.— A t least 4000 rifles
and untold quantities o f ammunition,
in shipments o f from 5000 to 50,000
pounds each, have been received here
within the last three months, official
figures show.
That the arms and
