q Orchard T Heating Established
By James |. Hamilton, in Better Fruit

eo iau frost occurred during the
second week of the blooming period
when all the buds were out and
the petals dropping from the bloom
that opened the first week, in all
probability all the buds on the
trees would be killed in the orchard
OF the grower who did not heat
while the other grower would again
protect the bloom and have a crop
so large that he would have to thin
the fruit.
Now about your orchard heating
ability. We suggest that the ability
OF any device or system is best es.
tablished by what it has done in
the hands of the grower. We MAIN
tain that the court of final iudg-
ment on the ability of any device
should be the grower, man who
has used the device, whether he is
in windy Texas or California, or
any OF the vast territory lying be-
tween, and in which every known
weather condition has been success
fully met where the proper equip
ment was used. 1t makes but little
difference what the manufacturer
may claim for his device, the grower
should look carefully into what has
been accomplished by any equip
ment before be invests. The grower
must learn that the success of any
orchard heating equipment lies in
its ability to burn fuel. This does
not mean burning a large amount
of fuel continuously unless that be
required, nor does it mean a re-
striction to burning only a small
amount of fuel continuously. Or.
chard heater ability means it's
adaptability to burn just the amount
of fuel required to provide the diff
ferent degrees of heat for the diff
ferent degrees of frost. This is
common sense. It is the same
scientific principle on which his fur
mace or heating stove is operated
and by which his home is made
comfortable against the different
weather conditions of the winter
days. He will also learn that while
a considerable amount of human
effort is necessary to successfully
accomplish this work that this hui
man effort element is very much |
affected by the construction of the
device or system that he employs
and the one that most nearly elimi-
mates the nerve-wrecking midnight
work will be adopted. . Wind is
surely the enemy of the orchard |
heater and every grower should
reckon this element in selecting his
device and make the equipment so
strong that no damage can result.
He should and will profit by what
growers have done in windy Sec
tions, and their experiences should
be his text book in all his opera
tions. We believe that it is only
a question of short time when or
chard heating will be practiced more
than any other operation in the
fruit growing industry, and grower
is overlooking something if he delays
in providing himself with this pro.
lection, which can be considered
only in the same light as insurance,
for it means nothing else. 1t ie
profitable to note what leading hor-
ticulturalists are writing on this
subject as the result of their own
and investigations, and
the bulletins of the day contain
much of profit, and we therefore
suggest that they be carefully read
and compared.

TAFT AND SENATE
FACE TO FACE ON
ARBITRATION PACT
President Puts Treaties Up
to People to Coerce
Acceptance.

President Taft and the Senate Of tho
fronting each other on the question of
whether the arbitration treaties shall be
ratified as drawn.
Both sides have stated their position,
and the question is virtually referred to
the public. President Taft last night,
In an address at Ocean Grove, N. j., be-
fore a great Methodist camp meeting,
appealed for support of the arbitration
treaties. He defended them as they are
drawn, and practically served notice
that he would rest the case with the
people Of the United States, and indi-
Gated that he expected to see the Senate
forced to yield. He said he was quite
willing to abide by the ultimate decis-
ion Of the people.
The President referred especially to
the contention of the Senate that the
provision giving authority to q commits
sion to decide whether a matter Is SUBJ
ject for arbitration. was a blow at the
power of the Senate. He did not think
It was, but said the question was one
the people had to decide.
It is now entirely clear that the
treaties are going over to next session,
and that in the meantime the President
will make speeches trying 10 muster
public support to his position.
On the other hand, the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee has made public
the majority report of that body against
the treaties as drawn. The report is a
powerful defense of the action of the
committee in cutting out the third para
graph Of article 3. This IS the para
graph that gives the commission power
to decide whether a difference may be
arbitrated. The majority of the COM
mittee holds this is usurpation of Sem
ate authority, and that it would make
the treaties breeders Of war-not of
peace.
The Senate hurried to get the report
into print in order, it Is said, to get
the Senates side of the case presented
to the people ahead of the Presidents s

This Day Notable for
Its Military Events

Military victories and defeats of
American arms make today notable
In history. On August 16, 1777, the
New Hampshire militia under Gen.
John Stark defeated British and Ger
man allies of Burgoyne's army during
the Revolutionary war near Benning-
ton, VT. Three years later to the day
the Americans, under General Gates,
were badly trounced by Cornwallis
and his hosts at Camden, s. c
1t was on August 16, 1852, that Gen.
Beriah Magoffin failed to make Ken
lucky a neutral State and resigned.
Formation of the Canadian province

The Washington times., 1911-08-16

| NEW YORK, Aug 16.-No definite
plans have been made for the much
taiked-of marriage of Madeline Force
| TO Col. John Jacob Astor.
The brides mother today branded all
of the stories which have been pub
lished during the past few days con-
cerning the approaching nCptials as
false.
Despite the denials made by Mrs.
Force. however, il is said that the man.
ager of one of the most fashiona BILE
shops on Fifth avenue has been COM
missioned to go to Paris and purchase
the brides trousseau.
On the other hand, every time the
young woman and her mother go to the
shopping district, the rumor stars up
trousseau in whatever shop she happens
to visit.
When Mrs. Force consented to break
the silence she has maintained in con-
nection with her daughters marriage,
she did SO to declare that sne Is becom-
ing i'll from the worry attending the
publication of wild rumors concerning
her daughter, and of the publicity which
has attended the affair since the an
nuncement of Miss Forces engagemeut
to Colonel Astor, a few weeks ago.
For the past five weeks" she said
there have been all SORTS of rumors
aflOat concerning the affair, and not
one of them has borne the semblance
of truth.
Il wish you would sweep away all the
false stories which have been in the
air." she continued. Every day or so
there comes the positive statement that
this or that has been decided upon, and
all of them are untrue
I'VE have decided neither the date
for the wedding nor the plans for the
trousseau. That should settle the gos-
sip, and l can say nothing more
But whether there has been anything
definitely decided upon or not, many
fashionable modistes are sending their
creations TO the Force home, on ap-
proval, and while Miss Force could not
shop yesterday because of the rain, she
inspected many of the smartest frocks
that New York modistes can turn out
II is said that the purchases made
ent wear, although her purchase of a
lace trimmed, and of several other
froCks of more simple design gave rise
to the ever present rumor that Louise
would furnish the trosseau.
The rumOrs that the marriage would
take place in the Astor mansion here
have been set aside, for society folk
believe that even though such a course
had been contemplated, the young bride
would not fly in the face of the con-
vcntional demands of society and be
married, If in New York, in any but
her own home. Then, too, there are the
bans placed by law upon the marriage
Of Colonel AstOr any place in New York
State.
