celebrated by a strong attack from the
French fortified zone OF Verdun.
The German retreat was as orderly
as that OF the French and English had
been. The invaders took up an ad-

If wanted for winter blooming It is
best to let 1t rest in summer, turning
the pot on its side, in some out Of the

ing in a layer Of charcoal for drainage
and food.
Over this put layer Of manure we'll

Water sparingly until growth com.

Always use warm water. The roots
will enjoy it quite hot, but this is
death to the stem. Some place a ring
of tin around the base Of the stem,
pressing 1t down an inch into the
soil, With this protection the hot
water can be freely used.
Bottom heat may also be supplied
by placing the pot on a hot brick. BY
keeping a pair Of bricks for this pur'
pose and alternating every 70 hours
the buds can be forced more freely,

WARNING GIVEN TURKEY
BY UNITED STATES
Friendly Relations Declared TO Be
Jeopardlzed by Armenian
Massacres

Washington, Oct. 4.-Ambassador
Morgenthau at Constantinople was
instructed by cable today to inform
the Turkish minister of foreign af-
fairs that public sentiment in the
United States was so stirred by the
reports OF the Armenian atrocities
that unless the massacres ceased
friendly relations between the Am.
erican people and the people of Tur-
key would be threatened
Officials made 1t clear that this
message, though its importance was
by no means minimized, did not
threaten a break in diplomatic rela-
tons. Turkey already nas let 1t be
known that she will not permit In
references by any foreign power with
her so called Armenian policy.
AS American life or property has
not been affected, the United States
without submitting an official pro-
test merely informs Turkey OF the
effect continued Armenian atrocities
would have upon the American peo'
pie, "
