only to have some sunlight, but to have
as much of it as possible. 1t is, Of
course, not feasible to admit the direct
rays of the sun to every room Of q
house; the typical plan Of all houses
is square or rectangular, and at least
enc side of the house is entirely beyond
tie reach Of the sun.
The other three sides, however, can
receive more or less direct sunlight
and the problem Of the plan is thus re-
duced to arranging the various rooms
so that the amount Of sunlight is adj
iusted to their uses, and it must be
sunlight, for mere light itself is not
sufficient; the rays Of the sun have
curative and cleansing properties that
nothing else has.
1t is generally admitted that a south
ern exposure is the best for all houses
and should be obtained whenever posi-
BE. 1t is immateral whether the en-
trance be placed on this side or not,
so long as the rooms most in use open
onto that side.
In dwellings Of average size the en-
trance front will also be the front on
which any important room opens, but
in large country houses the old dis
tinction OF front and back to a house
has disappeared and instead we have
the entrance front and the garden
front; the service and servants quar-
ters, so long regarded as characteristic
Of the back" of house, may be rele-
gated to a side end or placed in a wing

APPLE ORCHARD CENTURIES OLD
In ManzanO, N. M, Planted by the
Spaniards.


Spaniards.
The Oldest apple orchard in America,
if not in the world, is in the center Of
the ancient town of ManZano eighteen
miles southwest of Estarcia, Torrance
County, N. NJ. Many of the trees are
more than six feet in circumference,
but all are still fruitful and vigorous,
although neglected for generations.
Little is known of the history Of this
orchard, Int the oldest inhabitants Of
the valley of the Rio Grande remem-
Der the orchard from childhood, and
claim that the trees have not changed
in appearance since then. Venerable
Mexicans and Pueblo Indians tell Of
visiting the orchard as far back as they
can remember, and finding apples on
the ground in all stages Of decomposi-
ton at least two feet deep.
The Estancia Valley has been peo-
pied for ages, probably by the kins-
men of the natives found by the Span
ish explorers at Gran Quivira, Abo and
other ancient cities Probably in the
early days Of the Spanish occupation
some Franciscan monk found his way
to Manzano and there planted the seeds
that have developed into these veneer
able trees. They are no doubt fully
300 years old.
Close by the orchard is little lake,
fed by a large spring. A short distance
away is a grove Of pines and cedars
making an ideal place for picnic and
camping parties.-Kansas City Star,

HARTMAN
CASE PROSECUTION
GOVERNMENT ACTION WILL BE
BASED ON SHERMAN ANTI
TRUST LAW.

WASHINGTON, June 1.-The White
House, the Department of Justice, the
Interstate Commerce Commission as a
whole, individual members taking tes-
timony, and the commissions special
attorneys, Kellogg & Severance, have
had a hand in the preparation of the
case against E. H. Hartman.
The condition of the case has not
much advanced since last Monday
when the Interstate CommerCQ Com
mission in session, compiled all the
testimony taken in New York, Los
Angeles and elsewhere and summarize
ed it for the Department of Justice.
Previous to this, however, the Presi-
dent had the synopsis of Kellogg K
Severance, which he took on his vaca-
ton with him to Pine Knot.
Both Kellogg and Severance enter
tanned the view that action would lie
under the Sherman antitrust law.
This was intimated in their speeches
here on April 4th, when the Harri-
man attorneys dSlNGu lot anu ODIdluSu
leave to submit supplemental argu-
ment.
AS the case now stands, it is likely
that the views of the Attorney-Gen-
eral on the evidence will be submitted
to the President at the cabinet meet
ing on Tuesday. The general explain
alton is that the Acknowledgement viii
be instructed to prepare a bill against
the Hartman roads or Hartman him
self, possibly both. 1t will, of course,
be difficult to reconcile the action OF
the Department of Justice in the case
of Paul Morton with any actual indict-
ment of Hartman personally.
Hartman voluntarily dissolved the
relations between the Southern Pacific
and the San Pedro. The relations of
Hartman to the Alton deal have not,
however, been changed in any way,
and it is presumed here that the pro-
ceeding to be taken will revolve
around the Alton revelations.
