Paris. April PA correspondent of
La Journal at Athens had an interview
with King George of Greece, at the
palace yesterday. His majesty is quoted
as saying that he believed to the last
moment that peace would be main
tanned and did his utmost to bring
about pacific settlement of the matter
in dispute. The king denied that Greece
commenced the hostilities against
turkey and argued that Turkey was
not compelled to go TO war because of
the incursions of a few insurgents
whom nobody could have restrained.
Continuing. King George said: The
truth is, we were attacked because Tur-
Key was ordered to attack US If they
wanted war, they have got it. Such is
the result of the European concert.
Europe must understand that after
forcing us to war there can be no CUES
ton of limiting it. Our fleet is des-
tined to take an important part, as will
soon be learned. Greece understands
that she must either be victorious or
disappear. The war may be prolonged
and bloody, but it is now too late to
stop. a great crime has been com.
mitted against right and humanity in

Vassos Has a Visitor

London. April PA dispatch to the

the Italian volunteers to return home.
He had long interview with Colonel
Vassos. who said ne could not control
the Insurgents and feared they were
preparing TO take some action calcu-
lated to lead to serious complications.
The Italian consul gathered the i'm
preston that an attack was medi-
tated on the positions occupied by the
international troops. Colonel Vassos
declared that he would not hesitate
to attack Canea If ordered to do so
by the Greek government. But he ad-
ded that in such event he would give
due notice to the admirals of the in
ternational fleets.

after leaving them the points pass
across a pumice stone wheel to give
them the smoothness which the files
cannot impart, and then drop into a
wooden box placed beneath the ma

In the square wooden boxes beneath
the machines we have what may prop
erly be described as pin. looking very
much as it does when it leaves the fac
tory. although it has a number of pro-
cesses to go through still. The next
step takes the pins to the whitening
room. Here they are first placed in a
''tumbling barrel" which is simply a
revolving cylinder, half filled with saw
dust, and rolled until they are cleaned
of grease and dirt.j Then they are
passed through a blower, which re-
moves the sawdust and leaves the pins
bright and shining. Next they are
placed in large square sleeves and low
cred into watts filed with a peculiar
green fluid. These are the nickeling
watts. and after remaining in them an
hour or more the pins come out
changed from a brass color to the ia
miliar hue. They are again rolled in
sawdust until dry and then pass up
stairs to the stitching room.

How to Plant and Cultivate Apples.

There are several things expedient in
the outset in connection with the bust
ness of commercial apple growing,
writes W. L. Bush in the Louisville
Home and Farm. Be sure, in selecting
the site for an orchard that you take
the very best land you have, that is.
if the best land you have is good for
producing fruit trees. To set out an
orchard on a rough piece of land en-
tails too much work in order to keep
up the orchard. and should be avoided
whenever it is possible, as the expense
attached thereto will in most cases ex-
coed the profit. In preparing the ground
for planting. first pillow the land and
get it in a perfect state of cultiva-
ton so far as possible, being free from
grubs and other encumbrances; then
lay the ground off in rows, north and
south, east and west; l would prefer
the rows. where the land is of good
quality, to be 30 feet apart each al
lowing so trees per acre. Yet if the
land is otherwise. they may be set
closer. If the land produces a vigorous
tree they will crowd each other when
arranged closer than 80 feet, the
branches will intermingle with each
other. causing much inconvenience in
gathering and cultivating.
Bear this one fact in mind, that $500
trees are as many as any one man

The C. E. Rates.

Chicago, April 21.-Considerable bad
feeling was developing among western
roads over the Christian Endeavor as
ISOLATION business. The understanding
was that no roads should contract for
any of this business until definite ar
rangements had been arrived at con-
corning rates and the manner of rout-
ing. Now it is asserted that some of
the roads have gone in and contracted
for large parties in the east. 1t is not
alleged that an agreed rate has been
cut, but the fact that contracts have
been made relieves the other roads. it
is claimed. from obligations TO main
tain agreed rates. General demoraliza-
ton is likely to result from the present
friction. There is admittedly no money
for roads in the business at the agreed
rate. and why any road should desire
to go in and demoralize things still
further is what a majority OF the roads
cannot understand
