French Critic Describes Effect of War on Painting

By KATE BURR

Buffalo has in town—the guest of r. Chandler Roas—the dlstln-1 finished art critic and connoisseur. Monsieur Enrique Heniot. of Paris, New Yoric and Buenos Aires. Meeting Monsieur Heniot Ross' Buffalo studio at the Lafayette Hotel, I asked him to tell me something of the effect of the war on art -whether the art of painting had suffered deterioration as bad Htcra-

ture and music.

said Monsieur Heniot. in the very good English which U one of the ten languages he speaks, “the great war has had a tremendous effect upon art—especially in these countries which were the scene of action. ‘The battlefields, millions of men in the fight, homes recked, families separated,, peaceful land desroyed. the anxiety and suffering of ‘mothers, wires, sweethearts, the bloody shambles, the pain and despair in the hospitals among the maimed and convalescent heroes, the heart wounds changed literature, influenced sculpture. and gave the art of painting t

new horizon.

“In this mixture of sentiments there is a revolt against the dramatic, allegoric and classic In art represented by the old sch-xils. The father of the dramatis school of the nineteenth rentuty, the great Delacroix, with Gericault and others, has suffered retrogression si the hands of the people. ‘The allegorical and classic subjects from the brush of David, Ingres and the wonderful landscapes by the Barblzon school are being dimmed uy the relation of the people toward a new renaissance.

That man ,is Claude Monet. Father Light and Atmosphere, lionet had the creative Instinct and the coorage of his convictions to pu-h bis appeal a new way. He cre.ited the new

'painted as the sun acts, using the seven colors of the spectrum for his palette and never painting with black or neutral shades. In that way he bathed everything in atmosphere. Heniot showed mo a picture by Claude Mohet, oi which he is the fortunate possessor, how the artist' vision was able to make bis atmosphere tell the time of day in which the picture was painted The wonderful seascape gave us a two-oclock-in the afternoon sky and sea, and gazing upon the canvas I could see that to be

true.

Heniot spoke of what Renoir had done for the poetry of art, sad made the prophesy that so strong was the growing demand with these great impressionists' brush-children that in fifteen years one Monet will bring the price of a Hobbema and a Reno, will be valued like a Rembrandt. ‘Unfortunately the best works of Monet are hard to get Many collectors and a few connoisseurs are look ing for them. No one museum in Europe has many examples of the art of

Israels also appealed *o the soul of the people throug his home studies and portrays] of the life of small people—as fishermen, Dutch interiors and —like subjects. He strikes the mddium between the Impressionistic

and Rarblzon schools.”

Heniot has written several authoritative works on art, has contributed largely to Continental periodicals, his criticism being a regular feature of Figaro and his opinion decides

READ TAGS ON ALL FEEDING STUFFS PURCHASED

te Pennsylvania farmers expended last year approximately $13,080,853 for

commercial fertilizer.

Read the labels on the feeding stuffs you buy for your stock. This Is the advice of the Bureau of Chemistry. Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture, not only to lbfarmers and stockmen of the State. t to the feed dealers as well, proper observance of the tag each bag of feed stuffs, the farmer and stockman will know the food value of feeding •Tuffs he is buying, while the dealer will know at a clano whether or not his products are conforming to the feeding laws of the

The law provides that mixed feeds, which are shown to contain oat hulls, cotton seed hulls, flax plant refuse and elevator cha*. may not contain more than 10 per cent of fiber. The amount of fibrr, which is In reality waste terial and of no value, must be stated the tag attached to each bag of feeding stuff. The Bureau of Chemistry, under direction of the State Secretary of Agriculture, haa recently instituted a number of prosecutions in cases where feed stuffs were found to contain from fifteen to eighteen per cent of fiber If the farmer or stockman will read the tags on the feeding stuffs he contemplates purchasing, he wt'.I know at a glance whether or not he Is buying feed tbit contains a large per centagof waste material while the dealer can 1

BROWN ROT CAUSED HEAVY PEACH LOSSES Reports received by the Bureau of Plant Industry of the Pennsy'.vania Department of Agriculture indicate that the losses in the peach crop this year are exceedingly heavy, owing to the rapid development of brown rot disease during the wet. hnmld conditions under which ripening has taken place. In many orchards „ crop of the highest promise haa dwindled down to little or nothing, and *he general situation is refit-clod in the large amount of fruit offered for sale In an obviously unripe condition, the growers being compelled to take this step in order to forestall the rot and save something

from the general wreck.

The disappointing returns from this year's crop will no doubt serve to stimulate a more general interest in this disease and induce the peach growers to take advantage of the well-known spray control means for combating what has been In the last two seasons s very destructive pest. In a recent circular issued by the Bureau of Phnt Industry of Pennsylvania the life history of the brown rot disease Is outlined and spray method? for Its control are given. In addition spray applications, emphasis is placed on the destruction of the rotten fruit, and the gereral sanitation of the orchard so as to enlist as many agencies as possible In the fight

gainst the disease.

Unless more modern methods are employed by peach grower? for the control of brown rot, we may expect that the disease will continue to take heavy toll of the crop, and there will be high prices for the fruiL small reto the grower, and benefit to no-

body.
