PLEASURE IN FRUIT GARDEN
Owner Must Give 1t Attention From
Early Spring to Late Autumn
Use EarIy-Bearinq Plants.

Besides increasing the fruit supply
and cultivating a taste for quality, the
maintenance of fruit garden may be
made great source of pleasure. The
possession of a tree which one him
self has planted and reared to fruit
production carries an added interest
in it's product, as well as in the opera
ton by which it was secured. The
unfolding of the leaf, the exposure of
the blossom buds, the development of
the flowers, and the formation of the
fruit are all processes which measure
the skill Of the cultivator, and when
the browning result of all these natu-
raj functions has been attained in
crop Of perfect fruit, the man under
whose care these results have been
achieved will himself have been made
happier and better.
To those familiar with the facilities
at command for the culture of fruit
and the general interest in the SUBJ
ject, the remarkable absence of sue
cessful fruit gardens about city, sub
urban and country residences can be
explained only on the ground that
those who would be most likely to give

has been stationed here since that
time. He was intelligent and very
popular with officers and men. Soon
after his enlistment he was made
sergeant of the commissary and was
conducting the business connected
with the company stores with salts
faction to his superiors and his COM
rades. His death was the first un-
toward accident that has occurred
since the company went into en-
campment here and it has cast a
gloom over his comrades and over
the community.
The name Of the brave young wo-
man who gave assistance to Lieuten-
ant Hardin has been announced as
Mrs. Flournoy. Later reports, how
ever, indicate that the rescuer of
the lieutenant was a Miss Farah
Cade Of near Lafayette. Telephone
connections with that section of the
state are impossible on accoun. of
wire trouble and all efforts to locate
her have been futile. Whoever she
is her action was intrepid and fear
less and she is evidently of the
stuff of which heroines are made.
A splendid swimmer and cool-head-
ed, she went readily in response to
Lieutenant Hardin's assistance and
him to place his hand
upon her shoulder she swan steadily
to the boat where he was taken on
board. The splendid work of the
young woman was admiringly COM
mented upon by hundreds who wit
messed the affair. After she had
lowed the Lieutenant to safety, she
spent few moments in conversation
with him and then quietly withdrew
from the scene. It is the impression
If the lieutenant as well as of others
hat the young woman gave her
name as Mrs. Flournoy. However,
alter reports seem to indicate that
he name was misunderstood and
hat the fair heroine was Miss Farah
Cade whose home is on Sneed's
near Lafayette.

A foreword has been penned by

attention to their care and mainte-
nance have no object lessons or litera-
ture at hand to guide them in laying
out such gardens.
Most persons engaging in the cult
walton of a home fruit garden will
have as their chief aim the production
of fruit for the family table and the
pleasure it affords; others viii go a
step further and find an added source
of pleasure in the problems of cross
pNlination and the production of new
forms. In majority Of cases, how
ever, the aim will be the one first men
toned.
In order to prove source of con-
slant pleasure and qualification, a fruit
plantation must claim the attention OF
it's owner from early spring to late
autumn; its products, too, must be so
planned as to cover the greatest pos
sible portion Of the seasons, between
frosts. The problem presented in

this view of the question, taken in con-

ditions presented both by the extent

Dramatic Scenes Described

The dramatic and distressing
scenes in Poland Lithuania, Galicia,
Palestine and elsewhere, where there
are thousands of Jews actually
starving, are described in the words
of Dr. Magnes, who personally wi

cracy of the Jews in America is
dwelt upon The way in which the
humblest members of the race have
an equal voice with the rich and
powerful has made strong impress

described the great meetings held
throughout the country, at which
were contributed millions of actual
cash and pledges-running from the
$1,0OO,OOO individual contribution
of julius Rosenwald to the pennies
of the poor Jews of the Ghettos of
the big cities. The book further out
lines the plans under way to raise
$1O,000,000 additional during the
present year and shows that the APP

America have contributed-exclu-
sive Of the amount which is now
sought-a per capita sum five times
in excess of that contributed by the
97,OOO,00O non-Jews to all other

attention to the fact that the Jews
