Salem Back Yard Grows
Record Breaking Tomatoes

The Willamette valley has not gener-
ally been considered as a favorable sec.
tion for the growing of tomatoes but
Hiram Neugebauer, of llO7 South Com
mercial street has put this theory in
the discard. He has a hundred or more
plants, tied up to stakes about five feet
high, that have grown to the top of the
stakes and then on poles between them,
making great festoons of dark green
foliage, which just now are especially
beautiful, the big ripe tomatoes are
peeping out in crimson beauty from
their green surroundings and hanging in
great lunches from every stake.
Mr.. Neugebauer grew the plants, and
is as proud Of them as boy over his
first pair of red top boots, and his
pride is justifiablc. II is well worth
walking out that way, Just to see them,
which can be done from Commercial
street, they making a big bouquet of
green and crimson in the back yard at
his place.

Great

flee are most jealously guarded The
heads of these various departments are
veritable dictators and autocrats in
their own sphere of action, accountable,
at the moment, to no one. When these
facts are grasped, it will be realized
what immense and unprecedented pow
ers for good or evil their better halves
WELD.
For it is upon the opinions, almost. it
like Asquith, Churchill and Lloyd
George. that the duration, and, there
fore. the results of this gigantic war
depend. For instance, if one could fore
tell with accura cy the manner in which
certain conditions would react upon the
minds and opinion of these men 1t
would be comparatively easy matter
to predict the extent to which England
would carry the war. How much of
their public utterances are meant solely
to influence and form public opinion,
blum the enemy. and how much repre-
sents firm resolution. from which re-
verse and strain and attrition and dis
aster will not turn them? In trying
to arrive at such an. estimate il is in
tensely interesting to study the per
sonalities of their womenfolk who
exert a constant and perhaps predomi-
nant and decisive influence.
First and foremost, and perhaps most
interesting of this small group of
women, is the wife of the prime minis
ter. Mrs. H. H. Asquith. She alone of
all the women of the cabinet threatens
to oyershadow her husband Premier
Asquith is bit of puzzle when it
comes to assaying. There are those in
England who claim he is one of the
greatest OF living Englytshmen, and

the hotsess Of royalty at Nuneham. the
Oxfordshire home of the Harcourt
family.
It is doubtful. however. If any of
these women of high birth exercise
anything like the influence over their
husbands that the humble Mrs. Lloyd
George does over the chancellor Of the
excheQuer. Mrs. George went through
the early period of struggle with her
little. Welsh husband. shared his sor-
rows and his trials. participated in his
hopes and his ambitions. and now that
he Is one of the greatest men in the
country, and she shares his triumph
She Is still the modest, plain ma nnered
unspofled helpmate who did so much
to make his success possible. 1t is said
that certain of the women of the
cabinet do not show any love for the
wife of the Welsh solicitor, but that
fact does not trouble the sleep of Mrs
Lloyd George. She takes little part IN
the public life of her husband. but
when the cares of Office are thrown off
by the chancellor for a brief moment
every day the husband and wife spend
the happy period together.
Some years ago Mrs. Lloyd George
made a half-hearted attempt to enter
politics. but except as a hostess in a.
small way her appearances were not
success. Now she is seldom seen on
the public platform, and as a hostess
her efforts are confined to presiding {
the late breakfasts at which her hus-
band delights to receive his political
and personal friends

ter secured by a newspaper man. The
interviewer talked first with Mrs. As
quith, then with the premier. The in
terview was written and submitted first
to the prime minister's private secre-
tary and then to Mrs. Asquith. The lat
ter found it necessary to cut out so
much material that not much was left.
In return she supplied the newspaper
man with a mass of fresh personal
matter concerning her husband which
made the interview so interesting that
one was reconciled to the brevity of
the statesman's remarks.
Although the social duties of the
wife of the prime minister Of England
are heavy and constant, Mrs. Asquith
has the reputation of being an ideal
mother. Three of the prime minister's
sons by a former marriage are now in
service, while the two daughters are
active in war social work. The elder.
Violet. who was engaged to the sec
ond son of the Earl of Aberdeen, who
was killed in motor accident a couple
of years ago, is much like her
stepmother that when a famous poet
some time ago launched a controver-
sial poem even the wise heads found
it impossible to say whether he had
had Violet Asquith or her mother in
mind. The poet finally settled the con-
troversy by declaring that he had had
them both in sight and that he had
made "a composite portrait"
Although less striking individually

party, as, for instance, his boastful ane
presumably meaningless speech, IL
which he said many months ago tna'
if the German fleet would not come
out of the KEEL canal the English fee,
would dig it out, like a rat out OF
a hole"
1t is interesting to not, for Ameri-
can readers, that 1t is Churchill, who is
said to be in favor of a much stronger
attitude toward the American protests
against England's treatment of Ameri-
can shipping and trade. 1t was report
ed many months ago that II Churchill
had his way the British fleet would be
absolutely unfettered in it's power to
deal as it pleased with everything
bound to, or under the suspicion OF be-
ing indirectly bound to. the enemy.
1t is this interesting personality over
which the youthful Mrs. Churchill (she
is but thirty exercises her influence.
Some years ago it was declared that
Winstons mother, Lady Randolph
Churchill, had an extraordinary con-
troll over her son and that he never
without first consulting her. 1t was
thought, upon his marriage, that there
might be trouble between the new
and the old influence, but nothing of
this kind has happened.
Winston has become a bit more
steady. his critics have remarked that
he has given evidence of unsuspected
powers as statesman and that his
character seems to have taken on
more weight and responsibility. They
do not fail to ascribe these new mani
festations to the influence OF his wife.
X +
It is noted that they are seldom sep
arated except during the time Winston
spends at the admiralty. When Church
i'll, just before the war, was learning
to fly, his wife was constantly in at
tendance at the flying grounds AS a
hostess she has not figured prominent
ly, but since her marriage she has made
several appearances as speaker on
the lighter side of politics. Indeed, in
order to fit herself for her new role
she Joined debating society and in
due course became a fairly good speak
err. In personal appearance she Is tall
and slim, with an abundance of dark
hair. She has beautiful expressive eyes
and an animation of features that
makes her particularly interesting and
charming.
Probably no other woman of the cabf-
net takes such a genuine interest In
politics as does Mrs. Lewis Harcourt,
the American wife of the secretary for
the colonies Mrs. Harcourt is a niece
of the late ]. Pierpont Morgan, and is
supposed to have brought q consider
able dowry to her husband. However
that may be, she brought an American
woman's brains and the determination,
it is said, to make him prime minister.
Since their marriage, it must be admit
ted. his advance has been rapid, and
there are many good observers who see
in LULU Harcourt q future occupant
of 10 Downing street.
These facts have undoubtedly given
rise to q very widespread opinion of
Lewis Harcourt. This opinion will not
take him seriously. 1t admits that he
has talent. that he is one of the most
h
net, and that he is the best dressed
man in the house of commons. but
these are not enough to make q man
prime minister OF England. It brands
