| THE HOUSE OF
Annual Meeting
Education Association
> Chicago, Feb. 15.?Types of education
the country requires; what physical
property will be necessary to in .sure
its promotion; what technique in
* education may be expected from the
advanced curricula; how much educa
tion can the country afford; how much
more can we secure for our money
through elimination of wasteful processes
and organization; and what
benefits shall accrue to the children
of the United States through public
education, are the chief topics to come
up for consideration before the Department
of Superindendence of the
National Education Asociation at its
annual meeting here, the week beginning
February 27.
The first general session will be
held on Monday morning, February
27, the principal topic for discussion
being "The Outlook in Education,"
which will be divided into three divisions,
namely, cultural, technical
and commercial education.
An executive session of the Department
of Superintendence will be held
in the afternoon, followed by the second
general meeting in the evening,
at which an official representative
from the U. S. Government at Washington
will present "A National Educational
Policy."
The Tuesday morning session will
cover the general topic "Building and
Physical Equipment." The program
will be in charge of Superintendent
Randall J. Condon, Cincinnati, O. In
addition to the speaking program,

SATISFACTION.
nine's long talked of scheme for the
electrification of Russia appears to
be crystallizing into action and if the
present plans announced by official i
of the Soviet government go through
Sweden will be engaged in turning
out high-power turbines and other
electrification materials and machinery
for several years to come.
In order to fill contracts said to
have been entered into by the biggest
electrical works of Sweden, th<;
Swedish manufacturers will have to
purchase enormous quantities of raw
materials from the United States
where they are already buying a
great deal of copper for Sweden's
own, electrification projects.
Professor Crastio, head of the
Russian Department of Electrification,
recently arrived at Trollhaettan,
in central Sweden, and began negotiations
with Gunnar W. Anderson,
head of the large industrial combine
which is now delivering locomotives
to the Soviet government, for the
purchase and delivery of turbines and
other needed machinery for the Russian
power stations to be constructed
within the next few years. Trollhaettan
is one of Sweden's largest
manufacturing centers.
While the details of the Russian
order cannot be given at this time,
it is said that thqee of Sweden's
largest mechanical works will have to
be pressed into service to meet the
Russian contract. Professor Crastio
said the Russian electrification plan
involves the building before 1930
of about 10 large power stations with
a total of 1,000,000 horse-power.
One of the largest of these powerstations
is to be located at Wolchow,
about 70 miles south of Petrograd.
Two stations are to be constructed
on the Swir river between Onega and
I^adoga lakes.
The Russian electrification plan
contemplates also the erection of a
large number of steam power centrals.
Should this ambitions scheme of
the Russian Soviet government go
through as scheduled, it is likely that
Swedish electrical and mechanical
engineers will be drafted to install
the machinery in the Russian power
stations.
All Quiet After
Negro Is Lynched
Ellaville, Ga., Feb. 14.?Following
the shooting from umbush near here
Sunday night of Dennie Dcvane and
Henry Harvey, whites, and the lynching
and shooting of Will Jones, negro
1 cropper, who died yesternoon late
1 withtout making a statement, everything
was quiet here this morning
and a coroner's jury was proceeding
' with an investigation.
Jones was found yesterday afternoon
by Sheriff R. E. Battle and
George Bullard, marshal' of Ella
ville, near here, suffering from several
bullet wounds. The officers
stated there were evidences that
Jones is believed to have been suspected
of shooting the two white
men.
Chiaf of the Reds
Has Escaped Cossacks
... .
Moscow, Feb. 15.?Ehssnulla, the
.chief of the red revolutionary move'
ment of'Persia, who l?9t June made
! a daring raid that all but succeeded
j in capturing Teheran, has escaped
the Shah's Cossacks and is now here.
"The people's struggle against the
Shah and the feudal landlords has
failed. There'll be no more," he suid.
His comrade leaders in the revolution
were killed.
Khsanulla is rated the most picturesque
figure of all the bandit and
revolutionary leaders of the Middle
East.
Educated nnd daring, for 16 years
he has fought the established order
in Persia. His long hair and shaggy
beard are known to thousands of Persian
peasants.
He is known as the Kark Marx of
Persia, but in many ways resembles
Makno, the peasant leader of South
Russia. He hns never been captured,
though he has taken part in every
armed struggle of Persia since
1905. He might now have been master
of Teheran and of Persia but for
quail-els between two of his associate
leaders, Kutchik and Haidar.
With a peasant army strengthened
by Russian Communists, he struck
from Rescht to Teheran, while many
of the Shuh's 50,000 troops were putting
down risings at Tabriz and at
Iloroshan, and was within 35 miles
of Teheran when n betrayal in his
own ranks gave news of his hereabouts
and forced his retreat.
"After the Anglo-Russia treaty, by
which both nations agreed to leave
Persia alone," said Ehsanella, "I
realized that the Sayyid Zia-u-Din
government was a reversion to the
old, corrupt law of the feudalists,
each of whom is a sort of little Shah,
and that the rule of the combined
peasantry and educated class would
go under, perhaps forever, unless I
maue a last. uesperate enorc.
"So I got together a few thousand
peasant soldiery and by secret paths
and rapid marching tried to reach
Teheran. The Cossacks of the Shah
began to attack me and the Russian
Communists with me lost heart. I
fought until I was surrounded and
then ertreated.
"An Englishman no longer dares
to go into North Persia, but this is
not much satisfaction for me sine.*
they will again control in Teheran
My pity is for the poor peasants. I
built schools and hospitals for them.
"There need be no fear that Persia
will join the Pan-Islamic union
projected by Enver Pasha. The Islamic
religion has ruined the Orient
and we have no desire to form a
union that would again place us in
subjection to the Turks"
Number of Telephones
Has Increased in Canada
Ottawa, Ont~, Feb. 15.?Canada
ranks second among the nations of
the world to the United States in
the number of telephones per hundred
of population, according to the
statistical bureau of the Canadian
government.
Tho United States has 13.6 telephones
per hundred of population and
Canada has 9.8, according to these
records.
"In 1921 there were 856,266 telephones
in use in Canada, an increase
of 10 per cent over 1920. The wire
mileage used was 2,105,101 and the
average persons per mile were 4.2,"
savs the bureau renort. "Naturallv.
the most telephones in the Dominion
are in the large cities. Such cities
as Montreal, Quebec, Toronto, Ottawa
Winnipeg, Cnlgary, Edmonton, Vancouver
and Victoria haye as good
telephone service as any cities in the
United States. But in the last two
or three years there has been a very
large increase in the number of telephones
in the rural districts of the
prairie provinces."
Ants are credited with an instinctive
knowledge of the general weather for
a whole season. When they are observed
in the summer enlarging and
strengthening their dwellings, it is
said to be a sign of an early and cold
winter.

Hatfield, R. R. 3, Sabina, Ohio.
Housewives make a great mistake in
allowing themselves to become so weak
and nervous that it is well-nigh impossible
for them to attend to their necessary
household duties.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
should be taken when you first
notice such symptoms as nervousness,
backache, weakness and irregularity. It
will help you and prevent more serious
trouble. Give it a fair trial. It surely
I helped Mrs. Hatfield, juntasithaa many,

Tomato Ranks Third I ^
In Vagatabla Crops 4
(New York Times.) ?
The tomato crop is "third in value of
the vegetable crops In this country. &
A large portion of the crop is canned
or made into soups and purees. In the X
United States from 2Q0.000 to 300,000 ^
acres are devoted to the crop annually V
for canning and manufacturing purposes.
The yield is about 1,000,000 A
tons per annum. The industry is widely
scattered over the United States, X
but Maryland, New Jersey, Virginia,
Indiana and California produce a large) ^
part of the crop. j ?*i
"The tomato," says James 11. Beat- A
tie, horticulturist, United States De- A
partment of Agriculture, "is one of X
the few vegetables of American origin \ f
that have attained grout commercial V*
Importance. Introduced into the
United States about 1800, it was for A
a long time looked upon largely as an A
ornamental plant. Owing to its relation
to the nightshade family, it was X
regarded with suspicion and was said V
to be poisonous, and it was not until
this strong prejudice hHs been broken A
down that its cultivation began to attract
attention and its use became X
general.
"About the middle of the last contury
canned tomatoes were introduced
as an article of trade, and the to- A
mato-canning industry soon attained A
considerable importance. In 13N7 the ?
total pack of canned tomatoes in the X
United States was about '5,000,000
cases, each case containing two d?.-.ei<
No. 3 cans, each holding approximate- A
ly one quart. A
"Tomato production has grown un- A
til at the present time the tomato oe- ^
cupies third place among the vegeta- V
ble crops in value, being exceeded only j
by potatoes and sweet potatoes. The i A
average annual pack of canned toma-' A
toes for the ten years ended with the Jk
?t i(ion ?? - - ? ? " - "> *
ovuovn ui lsj^\j wna <tpj/iuAimuil*iy lZt- J
794,610 cases of No. 3 cans or their
equivalent. In addition to the tonuitoes
canned large quantities were used 4b
for the making of soups, purees and
P?lp. &
"The tomato is a crop requiring a X
moderately warm climate and a long V
growing season for its best develop- V
ment. In the Northern States where 4b
the frost-free season is too short for
maturing the crop out of doors, it can ^
be grown by starting the plants in- $
doors, thus prolonging the season by ^
several weeks. By following this prac- V
tice it is possible to grow tomatoes 4b
in a commercial way in regions where A
the industry could not otherwise flour- ^
ish. In climates where its growth is i
not interrupted by frost the tomato
is a perennial plant, but in the portions
of the United States where the ^
tomato-canning industry has attain- A
ed its greatest importance the tomato
is treated as an annual.
"Climatic conditions, nearness to X
market, labor supply, soils and other ^
factors have all had an influence in ^
the developn^jent bfindustry in 4HI
Maryland, California, indTaha, Mis- ^
souri, Delaware, New York, Utah, Ulinois,
Kentucky, Ohio, Pennsylvania, ^
Tennessee, Virginia and West Virginia V
where the major portion of the toma- +4
toes grown for canning and manufac- <?l
turing are produced, the volume of the A
pack in the several states being in the
order mentioned. X
"While the high temperatures and ^
hot sun of the lower South are well ^
*. uited to the growing of tomatoes for
canning and the Northern limit of
their growth is established by the
short growing season of the Northern
portion of the United States, it does 111
not follow that the present distribution
of the industry is in all cases h1
economically sound.
"Within the climatic range to which
the tomato is adapted it is not particularly
exacting as to soil requirements. ^
Anv crood soil suitable to e-enoml fnrni
crops can readily be adapted to the v 1
growing of tomatoes for canning. The ^
plant requires from 80 to 110 days ^
from seed to come into bearing, but ^
about one-third this period can be
spent in greenhouse, the hotbed, or
some other protected place and the
growing season can in this way be q
considerably lengthened.
"The plant bears until killed by
frost unless inured by drought, insects
or disease; hence the longer the producing
season the higher the yields.
The crop requires about the same Gc
amount of moisture as other farm ed
crops in the sections to which toma- fu
toes are adapted. From a considera- po
tion of these factors it is apparent th<
that large areas, lying in a hroad Ph
belt between the extremely hot low- ex<
er South and the short growing season all
areas of the North are, as far as the thi
general requirements of the plant are an
concerned, well adapted to the grow- ce:
ing of tomatoes for manufacturing th<
pruposes. " up
"The very fact that the tomato can thi
so easily be produced under a wide he
variety of conditions has in the past pr<
led to the development of the industry res
in nortlnna whore there hnvo heen nnH ?.?
are few economic reasons for its con- W
tinuance. In sections where the soil is Ca<
very light, requiring large quantities m(
of "organic material and commercial ur
fertilizers and where the crop is eas- n0(
ily injured by drought, and where, as
a rule, under such conditions the yields jm
are low, growers are at a serious disadvantage.

"When the crop is grown for can- tic
ning only; and where nearness to mar- C(|
ket is not essential, it would he bet- th
ter to centre the industry in sections su
where these unfavorable conditions do pr
