GARDENS ARE IMPORTANT N FOOD PLANS FOR 1920

Gardens are going to be just as im- portant the coming year as during the war period, United States Department of Agriculture specialists declare. High food costs, they say, are likely to remain until more to eat is grown and distributed. Farm gardens, vil- lage gardens, and city backyard gar dens all will help. Food produced in the gardens not only helps balance the family budget but releases that grown on farms for the use of people who are entirely dependent upon others.
 With the lengthening of the days it will not be long until land can be worked, and such hardy crops as peas, onions, lettuce, radishes and bsets planted, especially throughout the low CT Gulf Coast region. The average date of the last killing frost of the winter in this section is not later than March 15. This zone includes the southern portion of South Carolina, the southern half of Georgia, Ala bama and Mississippi, almost the whole of Louisiana and all southeast ern Texas. Several of the more hardy garden crops, including those mention ed above, will withstand considerable frost and may be planted at least a month before the average date for the last frost. "t
 Irish potatoes are easily injured by freezing, but they require about a month to come up and may be plant ed at about the same time as lettuce and radishes. It pays to take a chance on the early planting of certain of the more hardy garden vegetables, If they are killed or severely injured they may be replanted. A good meth cd is to make about three plantings at intervals of two weeks, and if the first planting is killed the later ones take it's place; if not killed, early veg etables will be produced and the sec ond and third plantings provide continuous supply.
 Keeping up the gardening interes throughout the season is just as inn portant as making an early start About the time the more hardy veg etables are planted in the garden thu seeds of tomato, eggplant, and pep pers should be started in a window box indoors. By the time the grount and the air are warm these plants vii be of good size and ready to set il the garden. In the meantime a fev "frostproof" or hardy cabbage plant may be set out. Next will come tn planting of snap or string bean. Then follows the planting of Linn beans, summer squashes, melons c all kinds, and other of the more ten der vegetables. ".. N
 And don't forget the greens. We a need more greens in our diet. Spir ach, kale, and turnips will keep yo supplied with greens during the lat fall and early winter, but you shoul have bed of spinach planted nov
 in the Gulf Coast region, for earl spring greens. Early turnips an
 beets are excellent for use as greer
 and later you can have delicio'
 Swiss Chard. Bassella withstand
 heat and makes satisfactory summ'
 greens. The main point in gettir
 the most out of your garden is to b
 gin early and keep going througho'
 the entire season, making every fo
 of land produce to the limit.

ALLIES TO OCCUPY
TURKISH CAPITAL
Massacre of Armenians Is Ex-
pected to Result in Drastic
Treaty Alterations
ISLAM ASKS PROBE BY U. S.
BY the Associated Press

London. March 6.--The Daily Tele-
graph today makes a feature Of re-
port that the Allies have decided on
the military and naval occupation OF
Constantinople in consequence Of the
treatment Of the Armenians by the
Turks.
The newspapers version Of the re-
port represents Great Britain as de.
termined to occupy the Turkish capi'
tai and says she has invited France
and Italy to cooperate and that their
replies are awaited.
British forces in the Mesopotamia oil
regions, particularly near Kerkuk and
Mosul, have been engaged In constant
nkirmishes with tribesmen and Turkish
irregulars. Recognition Of the Armenian
republic without defining its boundaries
cmbittered the Turks in Cilicia.
The horrors of Armenian massacres
and deportations during the great strug-
gle are blandly met with the statement
that the Turkish army suffered at the
hands of Armenians.
There is likelihood that the Cilician
massacre will cost Turkey much of what
the treaty of peace would otherwise

heard in inner circles at Whitehall,
where allied foreign ministers continue
framing the Turkish settlement.
The proposed western boundary from
Enos, on the Aegean sea, to Vida, on
the Black sea, may be abandoned and
the line may be drawn much further
east. This would limit Turkish posses
( sions in Europe to the narrow peninsula
north Of the Sea of Marmora.
Paris, March 6.-5(By A. P.)-Com-
ish treaty has been reached, says PERTH
max, political editor of Echo de Paris.
who adds that the operation Of the
Turkish financial control commission
will be quite distinct from the admin
istration of the Ottoman debt.
The. Supreme Council, he says, Is
about to take up the establishment OF
a judicial commission and definitely set
tie zones to be accorded Greece, Italy,
France and Great Britain in Asia
Minor. While the Allies would re-
spect the 'open door principle" they
would enjoy rights Of priority regarding
economic concessions, he says.
Japan has informed the council Of
ambassadors that she recognizes Ar
menia as a de facto government.
Constantinople, March 8.-(By A,
P.)-Resolutions asking the United
States to send a commission to impair
tally investigate the Marash massacre
and conditions generally in Anatolia
were passed unanimously today by the
Turkish Chamber of Deputies. This ac-
ton followed an address by Arif Bey.
who today was elected president Of the
Chamber, succeeding Rechad Kismet
Bey, deceased.

INVESTIGATION ON
IN CALDWELL CAST

Since his return to Mt. Sterling
the man giving his name as r.
Weotfall, arrested in Richmond where
he was arrested after some peculia-
transactions in Mt. Sterling, has beer
making some very conflicting state
ments and the police there, as well a:
those in Richmond, believe they have
a very shrewd and experienced Grim
inal to deal with. After having bought
drove of cattle in the vicinity o.
Mt. Sterling, for which he presented
what is said to be "cold' check fOl
more than $4,000 in bank there
he disposed of some of the cattle to
Eldridge Wagers, of Richmond; ther
proceeded to this city, presumably t.
secure cash on the check, when appre.
hended. He had not turned over an!
real money and it developed that hi
had no money in the bank at Ports
mouth, Ohio, upon which the. check
rendered at Mt: Sterling had beer
cashed. He is awaiting a hearing
pending further investigation of the
case, which is now being made.

WALTER WILLIAMS
Clever CRIMINAL

There are new checks, alleged to be
f the bogus variety, turning up with.
he name of William BurnsideS and
others attached to Them. and the po-
ice are continuing the investigation
If Walter Williams, the colored man
who. has been sailing here under
number of aliases and who has man.
,yed to secure considerable money,
)olice say, through the passing of the
.hecks while posing as laborer. 1t
s the belief of the authorities here
hat they are dealing with one fthe
.leverest colored criminals turned up
n this part of the state for some
time. Williams is said to possess a
good education. However, this is not
IN evidence when working his checks,
COR he dons very ordinary working
.lothers and, usually carrying bas-
ket, visits a grocery or clothing store
and after buying a quantity of gods
tenders the checks, receiving the mer-
chandise and the remainder in cash.
He is said to have given quantity
of clothing to other colored men af-
ter having purchased it at local stores
in order to realize cash on the checks.
He has made no statement since his
incarceration.
