WILSON TAKES TP RESIDENCE IN GENEVA “ Occupies Famous Villa Near League Palace. Geneva. Aug. 13.—Mrs. Woodrow Wilson has arrived at Geneva and taken up her residence at the famous villa Bartolini, on rile shores of Lake Genevn. a short distance from the League of Nations Palace, where she expects to remain through September. She is accompanied by the Misses Belle Baruch and Evangeline Johnson, of New York, who have been her traveling companions all summer on a visit to France and Italy. It was intended at first for Mrs. Wilson's party to occupy the villa Onex, head quarters of the international school started by '.Americans, but Professor James Shot well, of New York, occu pied it, lienee the necessity of secur ing the elaborate quarters for the widow of President Wilson. i Crop Prospects. Philadelphia Record. It may please people in and around the Chicago board of trade to talk about $2 wheat, but as the eighteen principal wheat growing eountries fn the northern hemisphere promise 2.2 per cent, larger crops than last year there seems to be a good deai of imagination in talk of war prices. These eighteen countries produce throe fourths i f the northern hemisphere crop, and next winter we shall have the crops of the southern hemisphere. Argentina lias seeded a record acre age of winter wheat, and the outlook in Australia is regarded as favorable. These eighteen countries do not in clude China and Ilussin. Very little is known about China, and Russian information is not very precise, but we have had several reports from there that the crop would be much better than last year's and that Rus sia would export wheat instead of import it. While our wheat crop is about 103.f100.000 below that of last year the Canadian crop promises 'to he about 113,000,000 bushels above that of last year, though much below the phenomenal crop of two years ago. Most of the European eountries will produce a little more and import a little less than last year, so that the prospect hardly points to more than a continuation of good prices for wheat, without any return to prices inflated by the war, and sutnined by direct action of Congress. The south ern hemisphere comes along before the exportable surplus of the northern hemisphere is exhausted. During July winter wheat improved 12.000.000 bushels and spring wheat went off 13.000.000. There is some significance in the fact that the wheat which was earliest harvested, and re garding which we have the fuller re turns. justified an increased estimate after there was time for some of threshing returns to be obtained. When we get equally full informa tion about spring wheat we may find that it did not go off so much iu July as was thought. Corn went off 145,000.000 bushels in July, but even tliis leaves the crop a very large one. The present pros- . pect is for a crop more than half a billion bushels greater than last year, a little greater than the crop of 1022 and substantially greater than the crop of 1919. Oats promise' 95,000,000 bushels more than they did a month ago, but 155,000,000 bushels less than lost year. White potatoes promise a trifle better than a month ago. but 102.000,000 less than last year when the crop was quite exceptionally large. Hay will be considerably less than a year ago, and tobacco slightly less. News of the Onion. Omaha World-HeriTd. Here is news of major importance. Onions this year are a flop. The nation's reserve is practically exhaust ed and the best the new crop prom ises is poor enough Prices on the Chicago market have doubled. Cali fornia white onions have gone to $0 a hundred and even Massachusetts yellows have sold as high as $5.50. We are faced with the necessity of calling upon the despised foreigner to help us out of our onion predicament. Already we have, accepted aid from Spain and may even have to import onions from the valley of the Nile. To those who like their steaks or their liver smothered or who practice the cult of an onion a day to keep file doctor away and everybody else away this is a sad and humiliating state of affairs. Among many people file humble onion is in bad odor, but it has its friends. There is a strength in Hie attachment between the onion nnd its partisans which exists in the case of few other vegetables. And it possesses an individuality that no other has. Others may be subordinated and thrust into the background of the menu, but the onion remains itself, however it is prepared, and it dom inates any dish it graces. Peifiaps, too, little thought has been given the subject of onion cul tivation. The public professes a great interest in wheat and corn, but the onions it takes for granted. Peddle don’t seem to realize that one must plow and .plant and harvest, and that rain and sun and “growing weather” are required to get onions the same as other food. We never miss the water till the well is dry and we never reflize the importance of the onion until there is a crop failure. Threatened Life of Secretary Mellon Kansas City, Mo., Aug. 13.—Will K. Reeme, insurance man and for years a crusader for prohibition, was arrested here today and admitted authorship of nil anonymous letter threatening the life of Secretary Mel lon of the treasury. The letter charged Mr. Mellon with treason in connec tion with the enforcement of pro hibition and was mailed July 31. Investigating officers said the let ter had forceful ring and left the im pressioin that the writer might carry out his threats. Reeme is said to have told friends that after the death of Carrie Nation, the ardent prohi bitionist, he took an oath over her grave to carry on her work.
