EertiIizinu the Orchard.

Barnyard manure is, in general, the
best fertilizer for the orchard, says c..
NJ Burritt of the department of agri.
culture This should be applied at the
rate Of load to from three to five
trees, at least once in three years. The
use of commercial fertilizers is hard
ly advisable, except where careful ex.
pertinent has demonstrated it's value.

Greatest Profit From Dairy,

One department of dairy farm may

CONGRESS BEGINS
 TO RESPOND TO PLEA TO SPEED UP ACTION
(COntinued from Page One)


 House may begin work on it next week but Senate leaders have decided to wait until the House has passed the bill before they take it up at all.
 Hearings on the army and navy bills continue in both houses. The Senate military committee is about ready to close hearings on the army reorganiza- tion bill and get down to the work of speech making tour had already showr scrne effect in Congress. where some mem bers who GO not favor Secretary Garri- sons continental army plan. are encour aged by the Presidents statement in his Pittsburg speech that he is not bound to any specific plan.
 Foreign affairs promise to remain a sub- ject of discussion in the Senate and House. The Mexican situation and the agitation for an embargo on war muni- tions exports are foremost. Many Sen ators predict the embargo question vii be an issue which Congress must de- termine before adjournment There is considerable sentiment in it's favor in both houses, but the administration is opposed to it on the ground that it woulc be an unneutral act and administration leaders predict nothing i'll be done
 Treaties with Colombia, Nicaragua and Hayti will be discussed again by com mittee Wednesday, A vote on the Colom- bian convention will be taken in com mittee that day. If it is recommended fol ratification some Senators are preparing to insist that it be discussed in oper instead of secret sessions.

 CALL OF THE CUMBERLANDS"
 At the Strand today Dustin Farnum is featured in "The Call of the Cumberlands," a Morosco-Par- amount production from the novel of Charles Neville Buck. It con Cerns a clanSman from the Tennes- see mountains who leaves his native heath to study art in Paris. How ever, the call of home is strong and he returns when the feud breaks out and his kin people are killed. There are exciting skir- mishes-a delicate love theme and the ever happy ending.

GEORGIA'S BLOODY RECORD
 AND SOME OF ITS LESSONS

People glance at the glaring headlines of a newspaper, and dismiss the matter as one of course. The hardening of pub lie sentiment to mob vengeance, the worst of crimes, is one of the most portentous of the facts connected with our times. Every one has become the slave of his own environment, and is taken up in his own little affairs The worst elements run riot, demolish order, overset insti- tutions, wreck civilized safeguards, while the best shake their heads or ominously shrug their shoulders, and all passes into speedy forgetfulness. One of the Latin poets expressed the same condition in his day in one of his elegies: ''The sailor of winds, of cattle the farmer
 talks;
 The soldier counts his wounds, the shep-
 herd his sheep.'
 That is the situation which is bear ing us on toward a darker future.

development of our merchant marine. 'It is evident that foreign govern ments or foreign citizens are begin
 ming to buy up American vessels and transfer them to foreign registry. This is extremely hurtful to our situation, where we are suffering already from a scarcity of tonnage. Other govern
 ments have laws, some of them recent ly passed, prohibiting transfers of ves- sells of their registry to other flags. In self-protection this government
 must quickly enact legislation which
 will prevent vessels of American reg istry from being transferred to for eign flags without consent of the ship ping board. If the ship bill presented in the last Congress had been passed we could have purchased six or seven hundred thousand tons of excellent merchant vessels which would now be under our control and would have made the present congestion of our foreign commerce in the port of New York and other places impossible.
 That there is need for legislation to relieve the present situation is at tested by the unanimous voice of com mercial and industrial organizations all oyer the country. Ocean freight rates have increased from 100 to 1000 per cent and even at these exorbi-
 tant rates there is a great lack of ton
 mage and our commerce is suffering
 immense losses. Our opportunities to
 extend our trade are handicapped and
 in many directions thwarted by the
 lack of ships. Is 1t a situation that
 demands a speedy and efficient rem
 edy."
 The framers of the bill emphasize
 that one of it's first purposes is to put government ships into traffic where private capital would not assume the
 risk, or where there is imperativeneed
 of immediate transportation facilities
 before private capital could act.
 The outlook for the passage of the bill in the Senate, where it was killed last year because of party revolt led by Senator Clarke, now is considered favorable. The President has had fre- quent conferences recently with Sena- tors who opposed it and many changes were made at their suggestion.

ative purposes, can scarcely be said to have brought him any novel or unex- pected light on the German situation, the main outlines of which, it appears, are we'll understood in Washington.
 Colonel House will, therefore it is be- leved, convey to President Wilson noth- ing startlingly new upon the German sit uaton and the attitude of the govern ment in it's various branches, but a mass of detailed information worked into shape in his long discussions with MT. Gerard.
 In the same way it may be said that Colonel House, upon whom interviews with several of Germany's leading states men left a most agreeable impression, will report to the President on the attitude these statesmen have taken toward America-an attitude which has been de- scribed as one of friendliness and a de- sire to avoid any complications with the l United States so far as compatible with Germany's vital interests and internal
 harmony-and he will be able to supper. and supplement Ambassador Gerard's re- ports by personal declarations made with
 the foreknowledge that they will go di-
 rect to the President.
 1 It is presumed that the German leaders
 now have clearer comprehension of the
 limits and intents of President Wilson's
 policy, and particularly of the ideas he
 has for working arrangement, harmon | izing as far as possible with the interests of neutrals and the two belligeren1
 groups It is interesting to note that many Germans, especially those inter
 ested in foreign affairs. are seeking en. ilightenment from all possible sources 1T an endeavor to figure out which grouI
