there was never any real danger of

DEPENDENCY MUST Be PROVED
Sen. Crowder Warns Boards That Mar
riage Alone Is Not Sufficient
Grounds for Exemption.

Washington, August 1.-Hasty mar
RIGGS since July 20, the date of the
army draft drawing, in an effort to
escape CONSUMPTION through the claim
of dependent wife, will not be con-
sidered ground for discharge unless
the wife is actually dependent on the
husbands daily labor
Prompted by reports from many
cities of marriage license bureaus be-
sieged by men included in the first
draft call, Provost Marshal General
Crowder today ruled that marriage is
not of itself valid ground for max
ing claim for discharge"
Dependency is a matter of fact, not
law, General Crowder pointed out.
"a man whose wife is mainly de-
pendent on his daily labor for sup
port" he said, may claim exemption
on that ground. Only the exemption
boards can determine this fact.
Where dependency is claimed and sir
cumstances show a marriage hastily
'coasummated since July 90 by a man
whose number is high on the available
list, the actual fact of dependency
must be closely scrutinized."
Moreover. General Crowder declar-
ed, women who marry men merely to
ala them to be slackers are liable to
prosecution under the draft act.
In his ruling, General .Crowder ad-
hered strictly to President Wilson'S
draft regulations, which draw no des-
tinction between a dependent wife &C
quired before or after the drawing
Secretary Baker, however, advocated
refusing exemption to any man mar
ried after the drawing, saying the
draft should be considered a prior
claim, but this course will not be fol-
lowed
Fears of some officials that delay in
obtaining materials and sufficient Ia
Dor for national army cantonments
would postpone the mobilization long
past September I. were dissipated to-
day by an announcement by Secretary
Baker, that 78 per cent of the canton
ment materials are now on the ground,
and that reports indicate everything
will be in readiness, or nearly so, in
another month
:, No definite date for mobilization has
been fixed, but Secretary Baker has
indicated that every effort will be
made to effect it about September /

sLACKERS TO BE PUNISHED
Lose Claims for Exemption and
Other Considerations.

Washington, Aug. Hundreds of
men in the chief cities of the country,
reports to the Department of Justice
show, gave fictitious addresses for
draft registration and are now being
sought by government agents. Bridges,
vacant lots, streets that do not
exist and in some cases factory sites
were given as addresses by regis
trants who since have disappeared.
In large number of cases prospects
are not considered bright for finding
the Slackers.
The practice appears to have been
more prevalent in the larger cities.
Few cases of the sort are reported
from communities having less than
one hundred thousand population.
SIackers who, after having regis
tered, fail to report for physical ex-
animation, will be ordered into the
military service of the United States
without further preliminaries, losing
claims of exemption and other con-
siderations.

C8y W. l. HOWARD. Professor of Horti-
culture, University OF Missouri)
Every boy who has lived in the
country, and many from the cities and
towns, have heard folks talk about
some fruit trees as seedlings and 9TH
ers as budded or grated trees. The
boys know two distinguishing features
between seedlings and budded fruits.
They know that seedlings are dug up
from beneath old trees and transplant
ed to garden or orchard, and that the
budded trees are purchased from a
nursery. They also know, and this is
a very vivid memory, that the peaches
from the budded trees often ripened in
July. that they were nearly always
freestones, and that they were much
larger and finer looking than seedlings
At this point most boys knowledge OF
difference between seedlings and bud
ded trees leaves OF suddenly. GrOwnups
too often are apt to find themselves
equally in the dark
There is nothing mysterious or even
difficult about the process of budding
fruit trees. To many people the terms
''bUdded" or grated" are associated
with things that are mysterious. This
is because the methods OF budding and
grating are little understood by the
masses of the people.
interchangeable Methods.
While the nurserymen commonly
bud certain trees and graft others,
these two methods of propagation are
usually interchangeable. The nursery
man makes use of the one that is
rule, all the stone fruits peaches,
plums, cherries, etc.) are always bud
ded, while apples and pears may be
budded If desired but generally are
grated.
Trees are budded because it is i'm
possible to grow desirable varieties
from seed. Now and then q peach

grown from seed, but the most impor-
tant commercial varieties Ike the FL
berta, Belle OF Georgia, Carman,
Champion, etc, must be grown from
buds.
Budded trees are commonly thought
to be more tender than seedlings.
There is some ground for this belief,
but they are not weaker because they
have been budded- The budding itself
does not affect the vigor Of q tree In
the least. Trees are never budded
unless budding makes them more val
liable than seedlings. IF they are
more valuable it is because they are
more highly improved than the seed

q law OF nature that when q plant or

this loss may be imaginary.

In the case OF fruit trees, new forms
are constantly arising. Most OF the
new varieties are chance seedlings.

the entire lot one that was better

be regarded as a new variety. How

riety it would be necessary to resort
to budding, as the seeds. If planted,
