ROOF PAINT FOR TREE WOUNDS
Found to be an Economical Way for
Sealing Abrasi0ns

Found to be an Economical Way for
Sealing Abrasi0ns
Many orchardists and tree surgeons
have found that the best and most eco
nomical way Of treating tree wounds
of all kinds is to cover them with roof
paint. It is easy to apply and farm
ers thruout the country have used it
with benefit in the treatment of abra-
sions, cuts and grating. It is heavy
enough in body to form thick coat
ing over the wound, thrus preventing
insects and the elements from harming
the tree. It is also very easy to apply.
A professional tree curgeon and
pruner who is taking care of some
10000 trees, writes enthusiastically
about it for use on citrus trees. "It
is" he says, "the best thing I have
ever used or heard of, and being so
well satisfied / heartily recommend
Oronite roof paint to any and all or
chardists who may be interested in
such a paint"
The use of this paint is undoubtedly
the best, most convenient and econom-
ical way of healing abrasions of trees,
and it greatly prolongs their life and
productiveness.

bread was preferred by the majority
of the natients, all Of whom had more
or less impaired digestion. Most of
the patients gained weight during the
period they were under observation.
The report of the committee says:
The main fact established is that
the human body can make better use
of the parts of the wheat grain which
have hitherto been discarded than the
pigs and poultry to which these rich
and nutrient by-products of milling
have been given in the past The
country has gained enormously in
food and energy from the compulsory
sorry inclusion in the loaf of these by
products The gain can be expressed
in definite terms as an increase of
!, 700 billion calories of energy on the
wheat milled each year in this coun-
try, or enough to extend the cereal
supply of energy for more than a
month"

Atlanta, May 2l.-Within the next
few weeks the Sovereign Klan of the
World, Columbian Union, will orga-
nize a number of Klans in points in
Georgia and other southern states.
This order, recently founded in Nash
vile, has grown rapidly in Tennes-

Klans are being organized in Arkan-
sas, Oklahoma, Mississippi, the two
Carolinas, Georgia and Florida, as
we'll as in the District of Columbia

the most prominent fraternal order
men in the United States, is majestic
sovereign Of the Sovereign Klan. The
order is founded on the principles OF
brotherhood and protection, and some
of the features of its ceremonial were
taken from the Ku Klux Klan. Robert
Mantell, the distinguished dramatic
actor, took part in the preparation OF
the ceremonials.

The committee finds that bread COM

attention to the north and began
pressing down from the mountains.
Most of the enemy forces first
brought to the Piave line were grad
ually withdrawn to the mountain line.
Won Bellows German divisions were
among those shifted from the Piave
to the mountains, before Won Below
went to the French front. The Brit
ish re-inforcements, which first took
position on the upper Piave at Mon
tello, soon observed thar the enemy
artillery had slackened off to almost
nothing, and that the enemy positions
on the east bank were apparently de-
serted. The British made many raids
across the river but met little opposi-
tion, and there was some prospect
this would permit an advance by the
Italians and their allies eastward into
the region invaded by the enemy but
held by them with reduced forces.
1t was evident, however, that the
enemy's inactivity on the Piave was
part of strategic plan, by which his
massing of forces on the north would
not only permit him to make an Of
fensive in the mountain regions, but
would also give him position on
the Italian left flank in case of ar
Italian advance across the Piave into
the invaded region. He was willing
therefore to leave the Piave with com
paratively light forces, and concen-
trate most of his strength in the
mountains.
