With decided reduction from 1910
to 1920 in the number Of fruit trees
in Kentucky, as we'll as the United
States, better care of bearing or
chards should return their owners in
creased profits while the planting of
new orchards promises to be sound

press at the College of Agriculture
and which is being distributed free
to interested farmers.
This reduction has decreased the
quantity of fruit produced and has
resulted in relatively high prices"

HONEY PHILOSOPHY FOR 1922

It's raining! Lord, isn't that so
grand! The gras will be greener,
the cows'll get refreshing food;
they'll give more nourishin milk
and the little kiddies of the slum
will be healthier; the cropsll grow,
and everyone'll be more prosperous.
The sun is shining! Lord, isn't
that grand! The world looks glori-
Gus. What about that picnic in the
woods-a cooling swim, a days fish
in, spin in the flivver, or ramble
through the country lanes. Health in
the air, joy in every soul, inspiration
to do the work of the day in a cheer
full spirit.
It's cloudy! Gee, Lord, isn't that
grand! How delightfully."- cool. An
the dust gone. A sprinkle of rain
and then the sun will come out. Oh,
boy, there's somethin' in a cloudy
day.
It's windy! Lord, isn't that grand!

! SEASONAL GARDEN TIPS =
IS

Insects destructive to gardens
may be divided into two groups
those that destroy the plants by Bit
ing and chewing and those that suck
the sap or juices of the plants. Ef-
fective control of any insect depends
upon determining to which group It
belongs and then applying the prop
err poison. Biting and chewing in
sects are controlled by use of stom-
ach poisons such as arsenate of lead
and Paris green. Sucking insects
are controlled by tobacco poisons,
kerosene emulsion and bordeaux mix
ture.
Late carrots are planted about
June /, the seed being sown thinly
in a very shallow furrow. A few
radish seeds sown along with the
carrots help to mark the row. Ok
Heart and Chatenay are good late
varieties that mature in from rs to
ITO days.
Spraying tomato plants with Dor
deaux mixture about June helps to
control leaf spot and early blight.
If the leaves become spotted and vel
low, thes praying should be repeated
at intervals of about ten days to
two weeks.
Plant lice may cause serious dam
age on early peas and beans unless
the plants are watched closely for
the presence of these insects on the
underside of the leaves. They are
controlled by spraying with arsenate
of lead.
| Painting all sash that has been
used to cover hot beds and cold
frames and storing it away in shell
tered place before June 1 helps to
prolong its usefulness, according to
gardeners at the College of Agricul'
ture. Exposure to the hot summer
sun causes considerable damage to
these.

ed to normal conditions, but several
years will be required to bring the
number of bearing trees back to that
of 1910. 1t seems opportune, there
fore, to stress the importance of fos-
tering the orchards now of bearing
age"
At best, an over-production of fruit
could not take place until new pant
ings are made and brought into bear
ing, the authors point out. POSSIBLE
tiles for such condition are made
even more remote by the death each
year of a certain number of young
trees, limited acres to which COM
mercial fruit production are confin
ed, increasing demands for fruit and
the absence of sudden fluctuations In
the industry, they continue.
Among the subjects discussed in
the circular, which is well illustrat
ed and detailed, are preparation fol
an orchard, the sit and soil, nursery
stock, planting, use of dynamite and
filters, selection of varieties for home
and commercial orchard, soil manage
ment, care of young orchards, clear
culture with cover crops, intercrop
ping, care of bearing trees, the soc
mulch system, use of elovers, fertile
ers for different kinds Of orchards
pests, rodents, spraying, fungicides
insecticides and grating.

GOLDSMITH WEAKENs, THROUGH
HARDING, SPENCER STAND PAT

1t is reported at this writing that
the nomination of the notorious Nat
Goldstein of St. Louis to be collector
of internal revenue in that city has
been withdrawn at the request Of
Goldstein himself.
Goldstein's nomination was spon-
sored by Senator Spencer (Rep.,
No. who vouched for Goldstein as
a man of absolute integrity" This
is the same Senator Spencer who
vouched for Senator Newberry and
had charge of Newbery's defense in
the Senate.
When Goldstein admitted that he
had taken $4,000 of the Lowden cam
paign money when a candidate for
DELEGATE to the Republican National
Convention of 1920, Governor Low
den declined to accept his vote. Gov
ernor Lowden now states that Gold
STEMS explanation in his testimony
before the Senate Investigating Com
mittee was absolutely false, and says
that he was afterwards informed that
Goldstein's testimony was given at
the suggestion of Senator Spencer,
member of the Senate Investigating
Committee ,Coacerning Goldstein's
nomination to be revenue collector,
Governor Lowden says:
IF he was unfit to sit as a delegate
in convention. it is hard to see how
he can be regarded as a fit candidate
for revenue collector"
Concerning this nomination, the
White House said informally that it
neither boasts of nor apologies for
its nominations.
OF those directly concerned with his
appointment as collector, Goldstein
seems to be the only man who real
ICES the enormity of the offense
against decency by asking to have
his name withdrawn.

Clearing House Reserve Higher

The excess reserve of the New York
Clearing House banks at the close Of
business yesterday reflected the stir
ring up of the money market incident
to preparations for meeting the July
interest and dividend payments. The
result was an Improvement in the re-
serve position Of the member institu-
tions to the extent of $40, 492, 500 COM
pared with the week before. Loans, dis
counts, Investments, etc, at the end
Of the week stood at S4,737 1893 900, a
decrease of $105,030,0 900, and there was
net reduction of approximately $780,
100000 in the deposit item. Demand
deposits fell off 1851 ,991 900, but this
was partially offset by an increase Of
$lo0,ol 900 in time deposits. The de-
crease in loans probably accounted for
the furry in the call money market
on the Stock Exchange last week, when
the rate closed on Friday at 5k per
cent, largely as the result Of advances
made to brokers. Interior banks we're
believed largely responsible for this
development, because of the temporary
withdrawal Of deposits with the New
York banks.

Security Of Foreign Loans

Several of the foreign loans recently
foated in the American market have
been secured by divers national reve-
nues, practice that in a few instances
has extended SO far that the list of the
pledged taxes has read like an index OF
the sources of governmental income
If foreign government elects to de-
fault or repudiate it's obligations, there
is admittedly no legal means of Selling
such revenues or of enforcing their
collection. This has raised a question
in bond circles as to the benefits at
taching to the investor from the pledge
of such security The answer given by
investment bankers yesterday was that
by virtue of such pledges the status of
preferred obligations was created for
loans so pledges count for little, it was
said, but conceding a nations willing
ness to pay up to it's ability they do
add something to the security. This
was proved some time ago in the re-
organization of the Argentine debt and
it is likely to be demonstrated again in
the settlement of the Mexican debt
situation.

Following the action Of the Clearing
House on June 13 in amending the
constitution governing the maximum
rates of interest to be paid by member
banks on deposits, the monthly state
ments Of trust companies sent out yes

fixed on a sliding scale, dependent
upon the discount rate for commercial
papec at the Federal Reserve Bank
The new rates are per cent on aver
age daily balances of $1,000 to $4,000
and 81 per cent on average daily bal
ances over $4,000. No interest is paid
