Crews of two of Sun's gun- boats anchored in the Whangpoo river rebelled and began firing three-inch shells In the direction of the Shanghal arsenal. Owing to poor markmanship searly all the shells fell In the French roncession, where several residences were struck. French gunboats speed. ly put an end to this performance. On Thursday the Nationalists called off the strike, partly because they were runing out of funds and partly be- tause of the terrorism of the exeecn- tions.

From a soll fertility standpoint the beans would not have a high value, though there might be some. It depends on conditions a good deal. On very poor land or land very low in nitro: gen and humus, the soys would have more value; but on good corn land which will grow 40 to 50 bushels of corn per acre, the beans would be the most likely to have derived about all the nitrogen they contain from the soll, and hence there would not be any new supply of nitrogen added to the soll.

One of the requi- gites of a high ylelding pear tree is that It have an abundance of vigor | © ous spurs well distributed over the tree.
