Caracas Venezuela October 26-- Venezuela. represented and controlled by clpriano Castro. does not dwell in peace and amity with the other nations of the world. Diplomatic relations with the United States, France, Col ombia and Holland have been broken they are strained to the breaking point with Brazil, and Germany is the only nation of account which is now on entirely friendly terms with the government at Caracas.
 Whether this sad condition of affairs Is the fault of Castro. as all the other nations declare: or whether It Is the fault of the other nations. as Castro maintains. Is the question for exami- nation. Is Castro the bad boy among nations. who must needs be spanked? :? or Is he. as his idoiatars swear. the first chief of a small American state to stand up squareiY for the rights of his country without estimating the fighting strength of his overbearing adversaries.
 The first thing a partisan of Castro says to a foreigner Is that the Presi- dent has been most unjustly maligned by those who have represented him as "defying' the world. The purport- ed interview with Castro published in a Parisian newspaper. in which the Venezuelan president was made to refer to the "barbarians of Europe and North America" Is bitterly denounced as a wilful and malicious fabrication. It Is denied by ministers of state and the most influential of his foreign friends that Castro has ever spoken of himself as "defying" the nations of the world, or any one of them. Every publication in the press of the United States or Europe which puts Castro in this attitude Is denounced by oficial

ORANGES ARE BEING GROWN
 WITHIN FEW MILES OF CITY

Within few miles of Montgomery at LeGrand. there has been produced. won der of wonders. oranges, of the most heal thy variety Not stupted. immature pro- duets, such as one would expect from this seemingly alien cline, but full grown or. anges. three inches and more in diameter. beautifully colored. and possessing the pun gent odor that betokens excellent fruit.
 This expatirated product Is the result of the industry of MT. Charles Drum. a well known farmer of Legrand. Mr. Drum has several of the orange plants, all in the flu est of condition, only one of which has. however reached the maturity necessary to fruition. This productive tree is ten years old, being planted near the Drum home when but shrub. There is every indication of a bountiful crop of oranges within a few years.
 Though at present little more than an ex- pertinent, tais demonstration that oranges can be reared successfully in this section may portend the introduction on a larger scale, of the crop. There is little reason why oranges with care. can not be suc- cessfuily reared in this state as the fruit has its inception, and maturity during the spring and summer and early fall, thus dodging the cold of winter. And 1t Is well known that the heat of summer. so neces- sary to the maturity of the fruit. is at times almost tropical in Montgomery County.
