ARE
RAISING FUND
FOR ], {. SUB.

The Syrians in the United States
several hundred thousand strong-are
participating with the greatest en-
thusiaSm in a movement for the rails
ing of money for the building Of a
United States submarine that Is to
bear the name Syria" Hundreds OF
dollars for this fund have been sub
scribed in Wheeling. declared Charles
Amien, leader in the local Syrian
colony, TO reporter for the Intel
iligencer.
The movement began in the nearby
city of Newark, O., and was originally
suggested by a 13-year-old Syrian girl.
Rosa Nassif. who is well known in
Wheeling, having been frequent Wis.
itor with relatives here. A central
organization was formed at Newark,
with the principal banks Of the city
as depository for the fund. The news
papers took up the boosting Of the
movement, with the result that public
ity has been extended to all sections
. Of the country.
Contributions are being made from
twenty-five cents up. The United
States naval department has given the
plan its approval. and Uncle Sam will
contribute as much to the Syrian fund
AS is found necessary to cover the cost
of the Syria"
This is yet another demonstration
of the patriotism of the Syrians in
America Deprived of liberty and
religious freedom in Turkey, these
foreign-born Americans appreciate to
| the fullest the blessings of life under
the stars and stripes. Still another
! showing of their patriotism will be the
appearance OF four hundred or more
/ Syrlans in Wheeling's Loyalty Day"
parade next Saturday.

so long a service he needed a rest. So
far as known he has no immediate
plans for the future.

If the ordinary limesulphur is used
as a substitute for Bordeaux, or self
boiled lime sulfur, it should be used,
after blossoming time, very weak, about
l to so, and should not be combined
with a sticker because Of the chemical
changes which will occur. There is a
slight tendency to spray burn where
lime sulfur is used in strengths ordinar-

recommended in the strength which ]
have mentioned for use on prunes in the
eastern United States.
The growers will be, think, entirely

Of the government. This is certainly
