habit, and as nearly as possible in the
section where they are to be planted.
No harm is likely to result from trans
ferring such trees from northern points
to more southerly locations in so far
as reaction to temperature Is con-
cerned.
The suitability Of the black walnut
for home planting is now being recog-
nized as never before. That it is one
Of our MOST valuable American trees
and that It's numbers have steadily
been decreasing has long been real
lied. To considerable extent this
tree was planted on the western prair-
les by the first settlers in compliance
with the timber and stone act, repealed
in the late eighties, which required
that trees be planted in proportion
TO land taken up from the government.
Some planting has been going on in
states and districts beyond the range
to which the species is Indigenous
Even now the forest service Of the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture does not advise its planting in
pure stands on land from which in
come is necessary during the lifetime
of the average planter, as no returns
in timber are probable under at least
80 or 40 years from the time of plant
ing.
Department experts recommend that
the walnut be included among the
species for planting in public parks,
on large, private lawns and dooryards,
along highways, and in out-of- the-way
places on the farm. 1t is invariably
the single tree planted in the open,
apart from other trees, that develops
into the most perfect specimen. It is
such trees that produce the greatest
quantity Of nuts. Usually the finest |
quality of kernel is from this source.

CABINET STILL IS
MATTER OF DOUBT
Harding Not Likely to Make Names
Public for Some Weeks.
(sv Assooiated Press.)


MARION, Ohio, Jan. 13.-With his
conferences here nearing conclusion,
President elect Harding devoted today
to discussion of a long list of inciden-
tai public questions. The days con-
ferences revealed no development in
regard to cabinet appointments nor
any of the other important problems
awaiting solution.
Speculation here regarding the cab
met now centers about the question OF
whether Charles Evan Hughes. of
New York. is willing to accept the post
of secretary of state. There is no
evidence that a formal offer of the
appointment has been made, but it is
understood that some time ago feelers
We're put out to learn Mr.. Hughes
attitude. So far, it is said, the result
has been inconclusive,
Developments in regard to virtually
all other places bid fair to remain at a
standstill for some weeks. Most of
the information Mr. Harding has col
lecte6 on the subject has been tucked
away in pigeon hole, where pre- sent
indications forecast that it will remain
at least until after his houseboat ex-
cursion to Florida.

NITRATE BILL is
AGAIN HELD BACK
lRy Associated Pressl

WASHINGTON, Jan. 13.-Further
delay in reaching a vote in the SEN
ate on the bill for federal operation
of the nitrate plant at Muscle Shoals,
Alabama, was offset in part today by
the bills advocates in repulsing an
attempt to shunt it aside.
The bill became tangled today with
an effort to rush through the resolu-
ton of Senator New, republican, In
diana, to reduce the regular army to
$4,000 men. Senator Wadsworth, re-
publican, New York, chairman of the
military committee and leading oppon-
ent of the nitrate BILL sought to dis
place the Muscle Shoals measure and
give right of way to the New resolu-
ton, but after Senator Underwood OF
Alabama, democratic leader, gave
warning that the move would put the
nitrate bin to sleep, Senator Wads-
worth's proposal was defeated, "a tc
