We don't know whether Mile. Su-
zanne Lenglen danced from until mid =
night Of the day she defaulted to Mrs.
Mallory. We doubt it; and we doubt
that anybody said she did. As VIC recall
1t, Tribune reporter called on her
that evening at the Forest Hills Inn:
and she was not dancing then. But if
ever woman was treated with chiyal-
ry, protective courtesy, and kindly con +.
slderation, Mile. Lenglen was SO treated
by the United States Lawn Tennis AS
sociation, even after, to our notion.
she chucked away the affectionate ad.
miration Of the public that she landed
with.
And yet, in spite of her default at
Forest Hills, her refusal to play any,
thing but doubles at SOUTHAMPTON, and
her default in mixed doubles at the
Crescent Athletic Club, it is our belief
that If she comes back here to compete
in tournament play next summer the
public will clasp her to it's unrancorous
heart again; and if she wins, it will
make of her the greatest heroine sport
ever had.
History may not be, as Henry Ford
says, bunk; but it is certain that the
present child labor laws never would
have permitted that Boy to Stand on
the Burning Deck; and what wouldn t
the authorities have done to the skin
per of the Hesperus for having taken
his little daughter to bear him com
pany?

New-York tribune., 1921-12-02

In an address at Brown University
previous to the meeting Of the Wash
ington conference Secretary Hughes
laid thes rock foundations of future
American policy and outlined the un-
assailable principles Of his opening ad-
dress to the delegates:
"We have no questions which mutual
good will and the processes of reason
cannot solve.
eve have no subtleties, no duplicity
Of meaning, no soft words to conceal
a purpose Of f-aggrandizement at
others expense"
In these two short sentences Mr.
Hughes sounded the bugle call of "at-
tention" to the civilized world. He
then led all nations in processes of
reason" in expressions Of "good will,
in condemning "duplicity" and in
checking f-aggrandizement" by
bravely scrapping naval program that
had unfortunately subjected the United
States TO the charge Of leading in dis
astrous and aggressive armament. He
reversed a policy inconsistent with the
past traditions Of this country. He
has throttled jingoism, smothered self
Ishness, lifted the burden of taxation
and set an example to all nations that
VIII encourage thoughts and ideals Of
peace among the Allies who fought
against German domination and who
will not now exonerate and give the
victory to their late enemy by fighting
with each other!
The World in Line
The amazement of the world when
1T heard Mr.. Hughes's speech was
equalled only by the enthusiasm Of its
approval. The success Of the conference
was Immediately assured. Failure ia
impossible.
Conservatism and national cupidity
Will, perhaps, die hard. But they are
doomed. They cannot control the pres
ent situation There have already been
a few expressions of doubt, few sug-
gestions of needed notifications to
protect the fancied interests of certain
powers. But all these hurdles will be
Jumped or removed. Fears will be al
layed. Differences will be ironed out.
Great Britain has virtually accepted
the whole plan. Mr.. Balfours COM
ments on submarines will not disrupt
the unity Of action of the English
speaking people. His approval of Mr..
Hughes's plan was most hearty. In
this he is supported by Lloyd George:
America has gone further in one day
in 1921 than she went in twelve months
in 1919. This move of hers is not
theory but practice-the real thing"
Lord Lee has committed himself:
Il am not prepared even to contem-
plate the possibilities of failure. To do
so would be to assume that the world
was afflicted with an incurable insanity
and could not be restrained from sti-
eide And Admiral Beatty, the cham
pion of battleships, declares his an
proval OF the scrapping program: "The
limits imposed under the Hughes plan
are not derogatory TO the dignity OF
tho great empire to which we belong;
the empire on the sea will be as safe
IN the future as in the past"
Thus England and the United States
stand together.

Produces Seedless
And COlOred Melons

! Dubuque, Iowa, Nov Cheating
nature at her own game and playing
with cards Of watermelon, tomatoes,
fruit trees and muskmelon, C. w.
Marshall of Minneapolis, Mimi, has
achieved the almost impossible from
the standpoint of the horticulturist in
bringing out seedless varieties Of
vegetable fruits and coloring and fla
lvoring muskmelons as desired.
A record of eight years of work is
behind Mr.. Marshall and his efforts,
he told select group Of growers in
Dubuque recently. Constant expert
ments, failures with repeated trials
led to the winning Of the game with
mature.
Muskmelons may be favored easily,
he told the growers. A bottle filled
with thinned sugar syrup colored any
shade wished is the principal mate
rial needed. The bottle with wick
Of wool set in cord, tightly wrap
ped to stick, is inverted near the
melon. The wick is inserted in the
stem OF the plant. When mature the
melon will be colored the desired
shade and favored according to the
syrup.
Obtaining a seedles watermelon,
tomato, cucumber or any other variety
of vegetable is simple matter After
the vegetable fruit has started to grow
following pollination Of the blossom,
a section of the vegetable vine is cut.
The cut must be confined to one Sec
ton and the vine must not be severed. |
Two other cuts must also be made in
the same section. Cuts of two inches
are sufficient to accomplish the pur-
pose. With three lengthwise cuts
made, the end of the center cut is
severed and buried in the ground. I
The seedless variety is the result.
With six years of effort already ex-
pended Mr.. Marshall has an apple tree
bearing six varieties of apples, each /
in and producing fruit in their
own proper season Grating is the .
secret. Each year he takes sprig
from the variety he wishes grown on I
his apple producer" as he calls it,
and CRAFTS it to the parent bole Of the
tree. He hopes to grow eight varie-
ties on the one tree.
Constant experiment with flowers,
trees and plants has led
to many an interesting discovery, he .
SAYS, with an unending field always I
open to the one who will spend his
time playing cards with those pro-
vided by nature.

Protect Yourself;
Hold Cotton Down

1t most certainly is very evident
that d large cotton acreage will break
the farmer, and nothing but a smaller
acreage accompanied by good prices
will put the farmer and the business
man again on their feet.
A large acreage to cotton indi-
Gates low prices.
A limited acreage to cotton indi-
Gates average prices.
A small acreage to cotton indicates
good prices.
I Which do you want for 1922? 1t is
evident that the 1921 crop, even
though 1t Is several million bales short
Of the 1920 crop, will net the farmer
more money at 20 cents than the
1920 crop at and 10 cents. There
fore, it would be absolute folly to
increase the acreage for 1922.
The farmer will hear the prophesy
that there will be great shortage Of
cotton in 1922, and instead Of plan
ming on the same basis as he did in
1921, and get a good price, his trouble
is going to be that he will plant a
very large acreage to cotton, thereby
forcing the price down. The large
acreage will supply the demand early,
which is likely to result In the re-
mainder of the crops selling below
the cost of production.
Since we had to take care of a sur
plus from the 1920 crop this year, the
same acreage planted in 1922 as I'M
1921 will bring better prices.
The farmer may ask this question,
"If | hold my cotton acreage down,
to what should plant the surplus
acreage? ?" The answer is this: If
your small cotton acreage brings you
as much money as large acreage.
then it matters very little about the
surplus acreage. However, it is very
important and should be your first
to plant plenty Of food
and feed crops. This will always
hold your cotton acreage down to a
minimum.
Plant the surplus to corn, hay, po-
Latoes, sorghum, soy beans, peas; put
VI fcal pdSIuiej lHctcdSc yOuI noS l
and add to your poultry; |
nave garden and then plant 1921 /
acreage to cotton. If this is done for
/ period of five years, the south will
become more prosperous than at any /
line since the Civil war. Don't let
his propaganda for large cotton
acreage ruin your future for 1922.
Ask your county agent. Confer with
he agricultural men. Talk to your
banker and consult our bureau Plan

POINTERS FOR THE
BACKYARD POULTRYMAN

Keep the hens confined to your own
/ land.
I Don't keep rooster. Hen lay just
as well without d male bird.
Don't overstock your land.
Purchase well-natured pullets rath-
err than hens.
Don't expect great success in hat
ching and raising chicks unless you
have had some experience, and have
grass plat separate from the yard
for the hens.
Build a cheap house or shelter.
Make the house dry and free from
drafts, but allow for ventilation.
Fowls stand cold better than damp
ness. You can build a good hem
house with two piano boxes, the back
taken off, and set back to back. Small
windows, screened for summer, and
provided with glass or cloth for win
ter should be provided. 1t is wise,
also, to have these boxes raised off
the ground few inches to prevent
rats making their homes under the
houses. This kind of house should do
for 90 hens.
Keep house and yard clean.
Provide roosts and dropping boards.
Save the manure. 1t is worth
money if treated properly.
Provide a nest for each four or five
hens.
Grow some green crop in the yard.
Spade up the yard frequently.
Feed table scraps with kitchen
waste.
Feed grain once or twice day.
Feed dry mash.
Keep the hens free from lice and
the houses free from mites.
Kill and cat the poorest hens in
The fall when they begin to mott and
cease TO lay.
Preserve the surplus eggs produced
during the summer for use during
the fall and winter when eggs are
scarce and high in price.
The size Of the flock which can be
kept most efficiently will depend upon
the space available and upon the
amount of table scraps and other
scraps available for feed. It is a
mistake to overstock your land. Bet
ter results will be obtained from a
few hens in a small yard than from
a large number. The backyard flock
rarely should consist Of more than 20
or 2j hens, and often Of not more
than 6 or 10. For 90 or % hens you
should have a yard % by 30 feet in
size.
