PROLONGIkG LIFE OF TREES
FILLING Cavities With Cement Ends
the Spread Of Decay, and Is
Simple Operation.

Filling the cavities of trees with
cement to prolong their lives is being
commonly and successfully practiced.
1t is not only worth while in preserv-
ing fruit trees, but is also the means
OF saving valuable shade trees. Trees
with cavities several inches deep are
often cut down when, by using little
cement and sand, they could be kept
alive for ten or fifteen years longer.
OF course, the cavities are small at
first, but continue to get larger. They
favor decay, weakening the tree.
With a knife or q chisel remove all
of the decayed wood. Trim the edges
Of the wound smoothly with sharp
knife. Then a coat of paint or shellac
should be given the outer edge Of the
wound. Successful growers recommend
the use of creosote and coal tar to
'siisfnfect the inside of the cavity after
it has been thoroughly cleaned out.
This may be applied with brush.
The cement may then be put In i'm
mediately. A good mixture may be
made of one part cement to two parts
of clean sand.
After the cement and sand have
been stirred few minutes add enough
water to make the mixture into
thick paste. Begin filling the cavity

Planting Memorial Trees.

Planting of trees in honor of heroes
who gave their lives in the late war is
becoming a favorite method Of per-
petuating the memory Of these men. In
cleveland, O., May 30, Memorial day
viii be made memorable by the dedi-
cation of Liberty row, which will ex-
tend for nine miles and will contain
694 trees each planted in memory of
a gold star hero Of Cleveland.
The trees will be called Victory oaks
and each will contain tablet bearing
the name of a soldier, and the date
and place Of his death.

Ailments of many kinds spring from such
conditions. Biliousness. rheumatism. lum-
bago, sciatica. general weakness. loss of
power and energy, headache, insomnia.
nervousness, mental depressiOn-even more
serious ailments such as catarrh and cancer
of the stomach, intestinal ulcers, cirrhosis
OF the liver. heart trouble-all Of these can
often be traced directly to acid stomach.
Keep sharp lookout for the first eymptoms
OF acid stomach-indigestion. heartburn,
belching, food repeating, that awful painful
bloat after eating, and sour, gassy stomach.

acid-stomach. Is guaranteed to bring quick
reieffrom these stomach miseries. Thousands

LEGION NOTES
MontpeIler Post Number oa.

Recently there has appeared in the
western states q team of discharged
soldiers who, after fighting in the
recent war to uphold the dignity and
principles of our flag and the United
States uniform, insist upon beIittling
and desecrating the uniform by
wearing it to arouse the sympathy OF
the public in general to the purchase
Of unofficial and fake pamphlets,
magazines, etc.
In a majority OF instances 1t has
been found that the men wearing
and panhandliHg.on the streets and
the uniform for peddling, hawking
from door to door, are not bona fide
soldiers but are using this method
to take nefarious action of popular
sentiment. This practice is in direct
violation of the national defense
act Of June 8, 1916, and subjects
the offender to punishment by fine
of $500 or Imprisonment not to ex-
coed six months, or both.
The real American soldier is abso-
lutely and positively opposed to the
use of tho uniform for commercial
purposes, because the sight OF a sol
0ACA RC0AAAA6p Pu1A0AAAA6p GaAfdS6-
ing or soliciting in uniform creates
the falacious impression that he has
been neglected and Is obliged to re-
sort to the public through the pa
triotic appeal of the uniform, to
make a living. AS an ex~-service
man puts it,:
There r crooks and crooks, but
about the n crook Of them all
is the crook who DISCUSSES himself
as a soldier and, under cover OF the
glorious uniform or even an imita-
tion Of t, swindles the patriotic with
various unworthy money-raising
schemes"
The raj and navy departments
r opposed to any such misuse OF
the uniform; the American Legion
is opposed to it; the public should
not encourage it.

Labor and material absorb
slightly more than IS per cent of
each dollar of the customer. AS
the cut in the prices Of woolens had
not occurred in the six months COW
cred by this statement possibly
labor costs to-day consume a larger
percentage of the dollar. Under the
head Of profits is included "all that's
left to pay dividends and accumu-
late surplus to insure our future
business" This profit is set down
at about eight cents out of each dol
lar paid by customers.
1t would appear, therefore, that
out of $50 paid for suit or overcoat
during the six months labor received
$24.3l and the material cost Just
about 1891, while fraction more
than $4.10 went for profit and sur
plus. 1t should be noticed that Fed
eral and state taxes ate up $l.Sl.
In the present time Of general sus-
picion it might be educational for
other manufacturers and merchants
to tell what becomes of each dollar
they take in. The big packers did
this the other day when Thomas E.
Wilson, one of their number, showed
that they retained less than one cent
out of each dollar handled.

''Fooling the grish"

Senator Harding's frank and
politically courageous statement con-
corning the relations Of America to
the Irish question will increase fur
Their his repute for character-a
repute which has been steadily
growing since his nomination.
His words are not those of a
politician angling for support. He
has the candor to speak openly. He
neither makes nor implies promises
which he is aware will not be re-
deemed. He would not fool any one
by raising baseless hopes. All this
he leaves to his opponents
Individuals in America, according
to Mr.. Harding, may freely express
their sympathies and desires. They
are not adjured to be neutral IN
thought as we'll as in act. Follow
ing long line Of precedents, Con.
gress may indicate the friendliness
OF its members toward Irish au-
tonomy. But the Harding admins

Cox Runs You PAY!

The Cabinet members will soon be
on the stump speaking for Mr.. Cox
Who is going to pay their ex.
penses?
You will find the answer in the
news. Assistant attorneys general
and others went to the Democratic
convention in San Francisco.
The San Francisco convention was
not public business. They did not
transact public business when they
were there.
But they charged their expenses
up to the government, and the people
paid the bill.
Is it to be supposed for one minute
that the Cabinet members, soon to
use their positions and their influ-
ence-if they have any-in Mr..
Cox's behalf, will pay their own ex-
penses?
1t is not.
Unless the exposure OF the San
Francisco expense accounts stops
them, Uncle Sam will do the paying.
Even IL they pay their expenses OF
pay them out Of Mr.. Cox's twelve
hundred thousand dollar campaign
fund they will be using government
time for their stumping tours, for it
is not to be believed that they will
refuse to take theirspay while they
are working for Mr.. Cox.
And there is no moral difference
between working for candidate
while paid by the people and going a
little further and charging up rail-
road fares, meals and automobiles,
as we'll as salary, to the people.
So far as Mr.. Harding's interests
are concerned, there should be no
objection to the Cabinet members
speaking. Mr.. daniels in Maine
proved to be an excellent campaign
er-for Harding.
We can we'll believe that Mr..
Burleson and Mr.. Colby and the
others would do equally well-for
Harding.
But asking the people to pay CAM
paign bills for Mr.. Cox and the sala-
ries Of Cox orators is something Mr..
Harding would not do-even though
it would materially help his cause.
The place for Cabinet members
and government officials in a cam
paign is on their jobs-not on the
stump.
The day is past when government
employees can be turned out to boost
i'll party without creating a pub
lie scandal.
