Washington.?Rapid completion of
the navy's 191(> building program
was urged by the general board in a
communication presented to the
house naval committee by Secretary
Daniels. The board recommended
that only slight changes be made i i
the plans of the capital ships as originally
drawn.
Thr? hoard's communication show- I
that the idea of building a composite
ship to take the place of battleships
and battle cruisers had been
abandoned for the time being at
least.
Principal changes in the six battle
cmisera authorized in 191b recommended
by the board would give the
ships additional protection at the sac
rifice of speed. Secretary Daniels
told the committee the board was unable
to say now how much speed
would be sacrificed to gain this end.
The ships wore designed for H5
knots speed. The board's communication
follows.
"The general board and this con
ferenco recommends that the present
authorized battleship program be
completed as expeditiously as possible
on present lines of development
and that future designs of battleships
should depend upon further developments
in battleship construction.
"The general board and this conference
recommends to the secretary
of the navy that the six cruisers now
authorized be completed as expeditiously
as possible but with additional
protection, particularly to turrets,
conning towers, magazines and communications
at the expense of a
small reduction in speed.
Rear Admiral Me K can, acting
chief of operations, told the committee
that no less than 16 first-class
battleships with a total complement
of 20,886 men would be kept in commission
as a peace time force.
The admiral was closely questioned
by committee members regarding the
possibility of making radical reductions
iri the complements of the firstclass
ships. They pointed out that
such reductions would mean a largo
saving to the government and would '
be consistent with the idea of post '
war economy.
Admiral McKean made it plain
that he was not in favor of large reductions.
He said the personnel of
the ships could not be decreased with
out the vessel's efficiency. ,

MODERN MIRACLES
DAILY PERFORMED
Wonders That Are Worked at
Seale Hayne Hospital?
Soldiers Cured.
(By Knox Franklin.)
London.?The dumb are made to
speak, the deaf to hear and the paralyzed
to walk. This is no exaggeration.
These miracles are daily
achieved by doctors at Seale Hayne
Military Hospital, at Newton Abbot,
in England's Devon country. I have
the tale directly from William S.
London, the honorary secretary of
the Middlesex War Pensions Com- |
irittee, who, with his own eyes, saw
the events I here relate.
"One of the first cases," said Mr.
London, "was that of a man who, as
a result of being buried by a shell
v hich burst almost on top of him,
had been paralyzed in his legs
foi two years and was, in addition,
quite dumb. He had received every
kind of treatment, but he could neither
stand nor speak, nor could lie even
fashion a word with his lips. He was
King helpless on his back."
"To give some idea of his conditicn,
he was taken out of bed and
with the help of two physicians allowed
to put his feet on the ground.
The doctors then withdrew their sup
port and the man immediately collapsed."
Sympathetic Troatment.
"He was lifted to a bed and the
treatment commenced. One of the
physicians, with a sympathy which
left a marked impression on the spectators,
told the patient to cough,
which he did. This was repeated four
times. The doctor then showed the
iran how to cough and at the same
tune articulate the word 'one.' This
the patient succeeded in doing after
three attempts.
'* 'Now,' said the doctor, 'a man !
who can say "one" can say "two." ' ]
He was taught to say 'two' by the I
same method, and then 'one' and 'two' j
together in the same breath, and so
on up to ten. He then easily pronounced
his name.
"All the time the dcotor had been
uttering words of encouragement,
such as "That's splendid." 'Your
voice is coming back; here it comes;
rcw you will soon hear yourself
speak. You said that perfectly,' etc.
"At these last words the patient
had some difficulty in controlling his
emotions. The treatment was concluded
when the patient said, 'It's a
Long Way to Tipperary,' as well as
I can say it. His voice was completely
restored and the time taken to do
i< was ten minutes."
Paralyzed Man's Stroll.
"Later in the day the colonel :n
! charge suggested that we pay a visit
to a paralytic mute and ascertain how
his treatment was progressing. We
mounted a few stairs and turned into
a long corridor, when, to our infinite
surprise and amazement, we saw the
1 man in question walking quite stead
; i 1 \ up and down the corridor, to the
'evident joy of both himclf and his
...u~ K?,i i ? T?
Wilt*, V.nu hum vuiiic iv; Yioit ii i ii i. in
the afternoon Ihey went out together
for a short stroll.
"I had heard a dumb man speak
and had seen a paralyzed man walk!
"Perhaps the most remarkable and
i important case was that of a man
(who for two years had been completely
paralyzed in the face, the
body and the limbs. He could not
move, or thought he could not. Every
one who had seen him was
the same opinion, and the necessary
papers were actually made out for
lv. admission to the Star and Garter
Hospital, since he was regarded as
hopelessly and permanently paralyzed.
' j
"This man was sent for in order
that ! might see him in my official
j capacity. He entered the room a
cured man and showed me how easily
he could run. He was able tc
n ove the muscles of his face and he
cruld write his name and address.
"Another patient was wounded ir

"All the medical text books lay i

Lieut. Col. Hurst, of Guy's Hospital,
who is medical officer at Scale
Hayne, directing the wonderful cures
of soldiers sent there, says that a
symptom "caused by obvious injury
01 disease may be perpetuated, after
the original organic conditions has
disappeared, so that it ends by being
entirely functional, and, being functional,
is curable by persuasion, reeducation
and suggestion?the three

"Under ordinary conditions," said
Col. Hurst, "the cause of terror is
momentary and its physical results
last only a few seconds. In war a
terrifying bombardment may be prolonged
for hours and the physical re'
suits of the emotion may continue
so long that they still persist when !
the a dual cause has disappeared. !
This is the explanation of the condition
'mown as 'shell shock,' apart
from headache and other symptoms
resulting from actual concussion.
Having no organic basis the trouble
ir cured by pseychotherapy.
"There are many soldiers ar.d
many pensioners totally deaf as a
:\: ult of shell shock. They have
i 1-ecn :cd to accept the decision thai
| no hlng more can be done for them.
Hat the Until is that all deafness due
to shell shock, even if the ear drums
have been ruptured by the force of
an explosion, is either in whole or in
part functional. This means that it
' i.- in whole or in part curable.
' "Any dumbness or inability lo
speak above a whisper, paralysis,
tremor and deafness, spasm of the
j eye lids and blindness, which follow
shell shock, and any vomiting per1

'and always curable," said Col. Hurst.
The pensions ministry has already
do cided that tuberculosis cases shall
1 o sent to a tuberculosis expert instead
of a medical referee, and it is
now agitated that all suffering from
functional disorders should be sent
to a neurologist an 1 treated according
to the plans laid down by him.

IAVE YOU PLANTED I
SOY BEANS WITH
YOUR CORN?

w4Vl. ?Ai ?
, l
Clemaoa College.?The farmers of
he southeastern states have not yet
some to appreciate the value of soy>eans,
as a soil improver, as a food i
or man, or as a feed for animals, says ,
Tof. Gilbeart H. Codings, of the
Vgronomy Division. The soybean is
>ne of the most promising legumes of
.ho South, and surely the South needs
.0 grow legumes more than any other
(roup of plants. In order that the
louthcrn farmer may secure larger
md more profitable yields, the nitrogen
and the organic matter of the
?oil must be built up. This can be
lone profitably only through the use j
>f legumes in our rotations.
The soybean, sometimes called the
5oja bean, soya bean, or stock poa,
was introduced into this country from
rapan during the latter part of tho
;wentieth century. Altho it is not a '
lative, the soil and climatic conditions
)f the southeastern states are ideal
or its development. It is an annual j
jlant of upright growth, producing '
arge yields of both hay and grain.
At tho present time soybeans are
more profitable to the average farmer
ban peanuts, and when used to turn j
inder are equal pound per pound of
>rganic matter and nitrogen to cowleas,
vetch, and other legumes. They
ire better yiolders than eowpeas
when planted in rows and cultivated,
rhey grow earlier in the spring and
ater in the fall and are more resistmt
to drought, heat, and frost than
eowpeas.
As a grazing crop for hogs soybeans
ire among tho rest. As a hay crop, ;
iltho somewhat coarse, they are much j
relished by livestock. The feeding
mine of the hay compares very favorably
with alfalfa hay. As a green |
manuring crop they add both organic i
matter and nitrogen to the soil. A j
test conducted by the Connecticut
Agricultural Experiment Station .
found that from 100 to 13.r? pounds of ,
n ifeoirnn woo ro f lirnorl f a Mia e nil no I
uivi n ua i ^ vut uwi tw mr o\/u \,uvu
year when the crop was used for this
purpose.
There is an ever increasing demand
for the seed, which are now being ;
used for a largo variety of purnoses. i
One of the principal demands comes
from the oil mills. The soybean seed j
ore very rich in oil, one bushel yielding
on an average one gallon of oil
when pressed. For these reasons the
acreage planted to soybeans each
year is steadily increasing and should
cont'nue to increase for some consider"1!0
1!no to e-?ue.
The preparation of the seed bed
is the same as the preparation '
of the seed bed for cotton. However.
a thorough preparation must be
emphasized, for by giving the plants
a good start a long step has been
made toward the successful production
of the crop. The plant reacts
read My to fertilizers, especially to the
nprd'eation of phosphatic fertilizers.
Some potassium can be applied profitably
in the Coastal Plain, but nitrogen
need not be applied eithci in the
Piedmont Plateau or the Coastal
Plain.
Soybeans should always be planted
In rows, whether they are grown for
seed or for hay. The rows should be
30 to 50 inches apart, depending upon
the fertility of the land and the variety
grown. The seed should ho
planted just as cotton or corn. An
ordinary corn planter can he used
very successfully for this purpose.
About 2f> to 36 pounds of medium size
seed should be planted per ace. In
planting, however, the seed should not
be planted deeper than two inches and
under normal conditions not deeper
than one and one-half inches.
Soybeans may he planted any time
from earlv spring until mid-summer.
For a grain crop they should he
planted early, hut for a hay, pasture,
green-manure, or soiling crop .they
may he planted as late as August 1st.
Cultivation should begin as soon as
the young seed are above the ground.
One deep cultivation is advised, hut
after that the cultivations should he
shallow. Level cultivation is recommended.
because harvesting is thus
greatly aided.
About 10 to 30 bushels of grain and
1 to 6 tons of linv will he produced
per acre, depending upon the variety
of bean, the climatic conditions, the
fertility of the soil, and the cultivation
received. The vines are cut with
a mower or reaper, and shocked in the
field to dry. The curing is similar to
the curing of cowpea hay. The beans
I may he thrashed out with an ordin{
arv thrashing machine, or they may
j he thrashed from the stalk by special
! Iv prepared harvesters.
The choice of a variety must he
