QUESTION OF TREE PLANTING
Problem is Worthy of Very Much
More Consideration Than Is Us
ualIy Given It.

What kind OF tree should one plant
beside ones home? asks Good House
keeping. Obviously 1t should be fast
grower. Also It should be ornamental.
Preferably IT. should give a shade that
is lofty and rot too dense. A produc-
tive tree will answer as well as one
that is merely ornamental. If a grated
tree is planted rather than a Seeding
1t will produce In very few years.
Nut trees are both ornamental and
productive. The black walnut and the
pecan seem to be well suited to this
sort of planting why not try one or
the other. or possibly both, one on
each side of the house?
The black walnut is n rapid grower
reaches large size. and has foliage Of
great beauty. A mature tree will pro-
duce great quantity of nuts. The
pecan is also large and beautiful. as
well as long-llved. Among the most
beautiful and stately of the trees at
Mount Vernon are pecan trees planted
by George Washington and still in ex-
cellent condition. Commonly one
thinks of the pecan as n tree for warm
attitudes only. Both 1t and the Eng
lish walnut will thrive much farther
north than is commonly supposed. For
planting near the house, then, the
black walnut. the pecan or good
shagbark tree would be an excellent
choice. The foliage of the walnut Is
always beautiful and in the fall the
leaves of both the hickory and the pc
can are symphonies in brown.

w. Virginia Leaves
Ways on First Lap
Toward Scrap Pile
Snperdreadnought 65 p. G..
Complete Almost Inper-
vious 10 Torpedoes and
Will Carry l6-Inch Rifles

NEWPORT NEWS, Va, Nov. 1a.--
The super-dreagnought West Virginia
newest addition to the American navy
and scheduled to grace the scrap pile
within a few months under the reduc-
tion program. was launched to-day at
the plant of the Newport News Ship
building and Drydock Company. Miss
Alice Mann, of Bramwell w. Va, chris
tened the ship as she glided from the
ways.
The American naval reduction plan
as presented to the armament confer
ence provides for the scrapping of the
West Virginia. If the American plan
is agreed to, the dreadnought, to-day
about GO per cent complete, will never
be finished.
The West Virginia is one of the same
class and power as the Maryland, soon
to be commissioned Somewhere among
government stores are eight 16-inch
rifles provided for the ship. She would
be able, when completed, to steam at
almost twenty-three knot speed; she
is built so as to be almost invunerable
to torpedo attack; she carries a hulk
OF the hardest arMor ever rolled, sc
thick that man might walk on it's
upper edge where it protrudcs beyond
the skin of the ship we'll above the
waterline. No device that American
genius or war experience has combined
to produce has been omitted from the
ships fighting equipment.
The West Virginia's keel was laid in
April, 1920. AS launched, she measures
e2d foot from cfnn to ctorp ord ;o OF
feet wide in beam. In addition to the
16-inch rifles when completed she
would carry secondary battery OF
fourteen 5-inch rifles, four 3-inch anti.
aircraft guns and two 21-inch sub.
merged torpedo tubes. Designs call fol-
an electric-drive of 10000 horsepower
furnished by oil burners and turbines
When finished the ship will cost S25,

New York Carries Large
List of PASSENGERS

The new 16,700-ton steamship Cam
eronia, of the Cunard- Anchor Lines,
sailed yesterday on a cruise including, !,
Madeira, Gibraltar, Monaco, Genoa and
Naples. She is the first oil-burning
passenger liner sailing from New York
to the Mediterranean and is the first
Anchor ship carrying saloon passengers
in this service since the war.
The superiority of oil over coal as
fuel ON ocean liners is indicated by the
fact that the Cameronia. arriving from
Glasgow on Thursday, was ready to
turn around again within twenty four
hours and then had full day left be-
tore sailing. The time between arriv-
ing end departing was forty-four hours.
Amon:. prominent passengers were Nh.
and Mrs. Samuel w. Bridgham, of Bos-
ton; Mr.. and Mrs H. A. Garfield. of
Williamstown, Mass; Mr. and Mrs N.

tion, 40 that the best Of them may be
tsl<en out when the ice breaks, II bust
ness improves sufficient to put them in
operation.
Most of the vessels range in size
from 5000 to 5000 tons. They repre-
sent one-tenth of the steamers that
have been tied up by the board since
the depression in shipping set in last
year.
A. II. Mack, director OF the eastern
district, said yesterday that the pres
ent location is too exposed, not only to
storms and ice, but that the bottom is
uncertain, changing with the tides.
All steamers which are not likely to
be used for s.ome time have been
stripped. Stores have been removed to
shore warehouses;. Pipes have been
prepared against freezing. The steel
decks have been oiled. A systematic
method Of manning has been worked
out by Mr.. Mack and Colonel Robert M.
Watkins, operating manager for the
eastern district. This is expected to
provide full care for the anchored fleet
with reduced cost.
The better vessels, which may be
called into service in the early spring,
have been dismantled in part as protec-
tion from the weather.
The number Of ships now tied up at
New York is nearly 300s according to
latest figures. Forty are idle at Bos-
ton and ninety at Philadelphia.

The intelligence department of the
town Of Armonk Westchester County,
which transmitted to the Sheriff few
days ago the information that Mrs. Ida
Meade, who ignored a Supreme Court
subpoena, was barricaded in cave on
Rocky Farm with her two sons, pre-
pared to fight off all corners, sent in
another report yesterday.
The Meade clan, according to this
report, is in another cave, even more
inaccessible than the one which eleven
deputy sheriffs stormed and found
vacant. This cave, according to the
report from Armonk, is commodious
retreat, we'll suited to defense and the
source of many Indian relics. 1t is
said to be in wild tract known as
the st. John property.
Acting Sheriff William Sweet said,
however, that the county wasn't going
to explore any more caves in the hunt
for Mrs. Meade. If she had found a
good cave, he said, she could stay in it.
This sentiment was echoed cordially by
the eleven deputy sheriffs who engaged
