That England today is twenty years ahead of the United States in the' de NORTH RUSSIA IS ORGANIZING AGAINSJVREDS" Internal Troubles Beset Bol- " sheviki Financial Position Worse (By Associated Iress LONDON, May 21. The Bolshevik government of Russia is reported to be beset by grave internal troubles, especially in North Russia. Definite evidence of disaffection among workmen in that district has been exhibited recently by hostile demonstrations againts the Soviet authorities, by etrikes and sabotage. The Bolshevik financial position Is rapidly growing worse. Reports submitted by Krestinski, commissary for finance, for the second half of 1918, show a deficit, owing to the fact that the "single tax on the possessing classes," which was estimated to yield 10,000,000,000 rubles, yielded only 450,000,000, as the townspeople of the "possessing class" were financially ex hausted and the peasants - offered ' armed resistance to forced payment. Menshevik Adopt Program. A large wing of the Menshevik, or moderate party, has refused to adhere to the Bolshevlki, and adopted the following program: Opposition to Bolshvik rule, which is declared to have "resulted in chaos and the destruction of national life in Russia." Revival of capitalism on democratic lines as being the only means of restoring Rusian industry and commerce with the outside world. The convening of a constituent assembly, to be elected by general franchise. - Restoration of the old frontiers of Russia, exclusive of Finland and Poland, with a grant of local political autonomy anud a federative tie unit ing such territories as desire independence. State control of idustry, as opposed to workmen's control. If aVoman"is nervous or has dizzy , epells, suffers from awful pains at regular i or irregular intervals she should turn to a J tonic made up of herbs, and without alconoi, which maxes wcat women strong and sick women well.

O velopment of aerial navigation and that in less than two years England will have all her colonies connected by air routes, was the declaration of Captain Rickenbacker. "It is a shame that the UnUed States allows other countries to develop its inventions," he said, admitting that the United States was falling down in the development of aeronautics. Captain Rickerbacker appears on the lecture platform at the Coliseum here on May 31. GET READY TO PLANT MELONS,SAYS WESLER The melon crops, including muskmelons. 8o.uasb.es, cucumbers and watermelons may be planted in mid May in Central Indiana, ten days earlier than this date along the south ern border, while in the northern sec tion of the state it is well to wait until late in the month of May, says F. W. Wesler, garden supervisor. These dates apply to seed sowing if plants have been raised in hotbed or coldf rame, it is well to belay set ting them in the garden until the days and nights have become con stantly warm. When planting a "hill" of any of these crops, dig a hole and in the bottom of it throw a shovelful of well rotted manure; fill the rest of the hole with soil, scatter ten or twelve seeds on top, then cover seeds with half inch of fine soil, tramping the same firmly to bring seeds in close contact with the moist earth. Remember that a "hill" In garden talk does not mean an elevation, but refers to a number of seeds planted in a group as explained above rather than singly in a row. Cucumbers and bush squash hills should be three to four feet apart, muskmelons five to six feet and watermelons and vine squash seven to nine feet. Squashes and pumpkins may be planted in the sweet corn row, leaving a vacant hill of corn here and there for that purpose. None of these crops have any place in the small garden since they take up too much room. However, where the space is limited it may be possible to plant cucumbers or melons along the border of the lot and train the vines over the fence. Briefs Janitor Wanted. Ligh Work. Y. M. C.

NATURAL GAS SUPPLY HEARS ' DANGER POINT

Association Members Are Warned That Artificial Means Must be Provided. CLEVELAND, . O., May 21. Con- -struction of plants for the manufacture of artificial gas must be hastened to meet the waning supply ol natural gas. President Kay C. Kirck, of Columbus, told 2,000 members of the Natural Gas Association of America, . at the opening session of their threeday convention here Tuesday. Dr. John A. Bownocker. of Columbus, reported the results of a survey of the gas fields in Ohio, West Vir ginia and Pennsylvania. Open flow of new wells decreased approximately 70 per cent and 71 per cent in West Virginia in the last 10 years, he said. Prospects of finding new producing areas are unfavorable, he declared, and predicted that cities would be without natural gas in the near future. Clifton W. Sears, of Wooster. asserted that Ohioans should profit from the experience of the Indiana consumers. He said three-fourths of the natural gas produced in that state was wasted and that the supply was exhausted in 16 years, while with careful use it would have lasted 64 years. Harry J. Hoover, of Cincinnati, said a recent investigation disclosed that ' 62 per cent of the consumers supplied by a large gas corporation received service at less than cost, and that the larger industrial consumers which were profitable, enabled the company to operate. He advocated price readjustment that would make every consumer pay the exact cost of service, plus a certain profit for the company.
