Scout the Story That Mummy Caused Carnarvons Death Bite of Insect Also Said to Be Improbable as Cause of Egyptologists Illness; Belief " inCurse Mere Superstition. By THOMAB CRAIN.

Any further failure of British agriculture as now threatened will be a national disaster. Politically it will play into tha bands of those who challenge our capitalistic stats. For surely its main defense most be the general welfare tha people. It cannot defend its system or its rights if masses of working folk are on a starvation wags or no wags at all. Now it Is inefficiency and greed that have brought about this stats of things. Tbs middleman, who is labors worst enemy, has demanded too high profits, formed rings for keeping high prices for manures, foods, transport, agricultural implements, service and marketing By cooperation among the farmers and elimination of ths middlemans unjust snd outrageous profits agriculture could be put oa a sounder basis. Above ail. no perhaps, railway transport must longer be allowed to cripple the farmer by the prodigious costs in getting his produce to market. Without efficiency and ecienttflc methods adapted to modern conditions, capitalism Is committing suicide and pronouncing of Its own doom. There is another burning question In England.
