TAKING THE SANE VIEW.

When 1t is declared by the new chair man of the shipping board that it's work is the most colossal commercial wreck the world ever knew" it will not sur- prise any except those who have been 50 blindly following the fanciful dreams or the wild expenditures that they failed to regard the situation in it's true light
 That view, however, not only sheds light on the manner in which the value of the ships must be written down but it fully indicates the stupendous task which has been undertaken by the new board Whatever allowance must be made for the fact that certain portion of the wreckage must be attributed to the war and its demands there Is no get ting away from other outstanding facts which fully warrant the presentation of the situation in which the shipping board affairs are found in it's true light. There is no use trying to dodge it. It would have been well if others had taken such view a long time ago.
 It isn't to be supposed that all who have been connected with the admins tration of the shipping boards affairs have contributed to the wreck that Chairman Lasker refers to. He doesn't t make that charge but his purpose in such a reference is to make it clearly understood why some of the radical moves that must be made are necessi- tated There is reason for getting that government enterprise onto a sound basis as rapidly as possible. It will not be an easy job to do so but it is useless to try to delude ourselves any longer about facts which have got to be faced. The quicker the necessary radical steps are taken and the shipping board gets onto a sound basis and progresses towards the putting of the merchant marine into private hands the quicker will a bad situation be ended. 4 good start should hasten desired results

LLOYD GEORGE AND
 LORD cEcI AT ODDS

|, London. July 7.-CBy The A P.) A sharp and unusual passage of arms oc- cured in the house of commons this af- ternoon between Premier Lloyd George and Lord Robert Cecil. It arose out of the premier's complaint that Lord Rob- ert had accused him unjustly of having attacked the workmen of the country at critical moment, namely. the eve of the coal strike.
 A heated altercation ensued, Lord Rob- ert declining to give way. He continued his speech and when he finished the pre- mier, who in the meantime had sent for copy of the speech in question, read a quotation and justified his remark as

Spraying viii Control Most
Destructive Orchard Enemie

Spray at thhe right time.
Use the right materials.
Do the work thoroughly. .
These are the important points
for the control or orchard enemies
insects and disease-says Charles A.
Keffer has just prepared a bulletin
on this subject from which the follow
ing is taken:
''In most parts of Tennessee 1920
was a good fruit year, but weather
conditions were unusually favorable
to orchard enemies-insects and dis
ease-so the man who did not spray
thoroughly at the right times failed
to make a profitable crop. The les
son is as old, and as neglected, as or
chard planting. Fortunately for all
there are several large commercial
apple and peach orchards in the
State. The owners of these orchards
had too much at stake to neglect
them. They sprayed. And they
profited in proportion to the timli-
ness and thoroughness Of Their
spraying.
The man with a big orchard has
learned the lesson that the small
grower must learn if ne would have
fruit. When spraying becomes com,
mon throughout the State we viii
realize that we live in a good fruit
country.
"The most destructive orchard
fruit d DISEASES are the brown rot and
leaf-curl Of the peach, the brown rot
also attacking the cherry and plum
and the bit. rot, scab and blotch
of the apple Since ali these ais
cases can be controlled by timely
spraying, and since all of them i'm
pair the quality and selling price OF
the fruit, they are here considered
collectively.
There are other serious fruit dis
eases, but as they cannot be con
trolled by spraying they will not bt
considered here.
"The most important fruit insect
that can be controlled by spraying
are San Jose scale, and other seal
insects which infest fruit trees; tn
aphids of lice found on youni
growths of apple and other fruits
curculio, which is especially inju1
ious to the peach and plum; an
codling moth, the insect whic
causes wormy apples.
"Both diseases and insects can b

When the weather is continuousl
wet and cloudy, control become
much more difficult and consequent
ly less effective"

"Why Boys Leave the Farm"

"Why Boys Leave the Farm"
Verse /:
"Why did you leave the farm, my
lad?
Why did you bolt and quit your dad?
Why did you beat it off to town
And turn your poor old daddy down?
Thinkers of platform, pulpit, press
Are wallowing in deep distress;
They seek to know the hidden cause
Why farmer boys desert their pas.
Some say you long to get taste
Of faster life and social waste;
Some say you silly little chumps
Mistake your suite cards for your
trumps. 30.

Against the smoky thoroughfare,
We're all agreed, the farms the place
So free your mind and state your

frank,
I'll roll aside the hazy bank,
The misty cloud of theories,
And show you where the trouble lies.

Because my calf became his COW.

Poultry Pointers For Tennesse
Breeders

Progress in breeding poultry stock
will be made most quickly by pick
ing out the best individuals in the
flock and using them as breeders,
rather than by breeding from the
flock as a whole, say specialists of
the Division of Extension, Universe
ty of Tennessee. me selection of a
male for mating will be influenced
largely by the character of the fe-
males used. If there is general
weakness in the females in any res
pect, this should be offset as far as
possible by strength in that particu-
lar respect in the male used.

." "oeV' PUBIC utilltyE
This question is raised In . bill Just
introduced by Congressman Ryan Of
Now York. The bill would put the
regulation OF Washington hotel rates
up to the District Public Utilities
Commission.
The main object of the bill IL to
compel Washington hotel proprietors
to keep chart. diagram or Indicator
showing each room for occupancy and
clearly Indicating in each instance
whether such room liz occupied or
vacant. Congressman Ryan says in
vestigation has disclosed the fact that
exorbitant rates are charged at some
hotels on the representation that the
hostelry was crowded to overlooking,
when In fact many rooms were vacant.
The sponsor of the bill believes the
keeping OF an accurate chart or dis-
gram showing what rooms were occu-
pied would prevent excessive charges
due to alleged crowded conditions.
The bill also would compel local
hotel proprietors to give the Public
Utilities Commission ninety days
notice of increases in rates and get
the approval of Contemplated rates
by the Commission. A penalty rang
ing from $40 to 800 nne would be
imposed for violations Of the law, IL
