Voices From Things Growing

Voices From Things Growing
(Fvon. Tbs London McrcuYv)
THESE fowers are 7, poor Fanny
HurA.
Sir or Madam,
A little girl here sepulturcd.
Once I f1it-futtercd like a bird
Above the bents, az now I wave
In daisy shapes above my grave.
All day cheerily.
All night cerily.
Il am one Bachelor Bowring, Gent
Sir or Madam;
In shingled oak my bones were pent;
Hence more than a hundred years
spent
In my growth Of change from coffin
thrall
To dancer in green as leaves on a wall,
All day cheerily,
All night eeriy.
Il, these berries Of juice and gloss,
Sir or Madam,
Am clean forgotten as Thomas Voss;
Thin-urned, have burrowed away from
the moss
That covers my sod. and have entered
this yew,
And turned to clusters ruddy of view,
All day cheerily,
All night eerily.
The Lady Gertrude, proud, high bred,
Sir or Madam,
Am this laurel that shades your
head;
Into its veins have Silly sped,
And made them of me; and my leaves
now shine,
AS did my satins superfine,
ALI day chcerily,
All night eerily.
I, who as innocent withwind climb,
Sir or Madam,
Am one Bet Greensleeves, in olden time
Kissed by men from many a cline,
Beneath sun, stars, in blaze. in breeze,
AS now by glow-worms and by bees,
All day cheerily,
All night eerily.
I'm old Squire Audeley Grey, who
grew,
Sir or Madam,
Aweary of life, and in scorn withdrew;
Ill anon I clambered up anew
ivy-green, when my ache was stayed,
nd in that attire l have long time
gayed
All day cheerly,
All night ecrily.
And so they breathe, these growths,
to each

As their murmurous accents seem to

The Flying Gun at Sea
Auplonc Will Protect Commcrce--Mcrchan Ship Plane
Carrier Will Fight Its Own Battles
Arplq,1c
By Quarterback

The airplane will protect commerce
in the next war on the sea. The power
and virtue of the plane in securing the
''freedom of the sea- have not been
recognized.
In the World War the Navy Depart
mcnt resorted to the futile policy of
placing 5-inch or 6-inch guns and
earned guards" on board cargo vessels
and transports as protection against
submarines. Failure was inevitable, for
the simple reason that periscopc at
distance of mile appears little big
ger than a bean pole, and it is practi
cally impossible. to hit such target,
even at distance of 500 yards. The
submarine could approach with i'm
punity. especially in the semi-darkness
at dawn or twilight, and sink ship
with ease. In fact, submarines often
engaged successfully in gun battles
with armed vessels in broad daylight
because the chances of their being hit
were so remote.
From the beginning Admiral Sims
recognized the folly of the gun defense
for merchantmen and strongly advo-
Gated the convoy-feets of transports
and cargo carriers escorted by cruis-
ers and destroyers, which could pursue
; the submarine and use the ram, gun or
depth charge at close quarters. 1t was
with the greatest difficulty and after
months Of disastrous delay that Sims
finally convinced the Navy Department
o. the absurdity of depending upon
armed guards. The armed merchant
men failed, but the convoy, with it's
fighting screen, beat off the submarine
and safely carried food and troops to
| Europe.
New-York tribune., 1922-01-15


Let us now consider how the convoy,
with the aid of the airplane, can be
converted into a fighting fleet to pro-
tect itself from submarines or cruisers
if it commands the air at sea.
Suppose a convoy of fifteen steamers
proceeds to sea in three parallel COL
umns of five ships each. With cata-
nult at the bow and another at the
stern. each steamer could be armed
with four planes fitted to carry two
LOO pound bombs, or the equivalent
weight in torpedoes or smaller bombs
This would provide an air force OF
sixty heavy bombing planes, carrying
1870 1,1o0-pound bombs-a very formi-
dable fighting unit.
If deemed necessary, three or more
seagoing submarines running on the
surface could accompany the convoy as
an additional escort
The following procedure is suggested.
One or more ships at the head of the
column should send out two airplanes
as scouts to fly around and ahead OF
the convoy, one flying low and zigzag-
ping to look out for submarines, the
other flying high and at such dis
tance from the convoy that it could
discover hostile ship in time to give
ample warning by radio. II a sub
marine or enemy ship is sighted the
scouts could sound the warning and
attack at once. The convoy commander
would then place his submarines be
tween the convoy and the enemy ant
reinforce the scouting planes with
relays of fighting planes, or with thu
whole force of sixty planes, if neces
sary.
If the two scouting planes do no
sight an enemy they return to th'
vicinity of their ship when their fue
is exhausted. The ship stops with tn
sea on one bow to make lee," tn
planes alight on the water close along
side and are quickly hoisted on boar
like lifeboat with the cargo derricks
During this maneuver the convoy pro
ceeds on its course, and the scout'n
ship. after picking up it's planes, take
it's place at the rear Of the column.
the mean time another ship or ships
the head Of the column send out fresl
scouting planes to take up the search.
The search in the two or three hour
before sunset each day should be YER
thorough in order that no enemy ma
j, discover or intercept the convoy dufin

LESS FRUIT GROWN IN AMERICA
Result of Failure TO Protect Against
Ravages of Various Insects.

The last United States census states
that from 1909 to 1919 there was a de-
crease of 36,013,673, or 23S per cent %
apple trees of bearing age. The decrease
in trees not of bearing age was 1885,
763. or 10 per cent In the case of
peaches, there was a decrease of 800 per
cent in trees of bearing age and of ass
per cent in trees not of bearing age.
The fact is, then, that new paintings are
not sufficient to take care of the de-
creases in the number of bearing trees.
These heavy losses are due largely to
general neglect, failure to protect trees
against San Jose scale and the diseases.
the attacks of small animals. and starva-
ton. Then there is the question of
proper feeding 1t is doubtful il farm
ers and fruit growers, generally, under
stand just what the feeding require
ments of the fruit tree are. A bearing
apple orchard. makes as heavy a draft
upon the soil as wheat.
Few farmers would attempt to raise
wheat continuously on the same land
without employing rotations, animal ma
nures, green manures and commercial
fertilizers. Yet the average orchard
must make good unaided or pass into
the discard Young trees are often set
out in sod and then left to shift for
themselves Comparatively few of them
ever live to reach the bearing age.
In many instances apples and peaches,
particularly, respond quickly and per-
ceptibly to good care and fertilization.
Several of the experiment stations have
been able to determine that fruit bud
formation can be definitely increased by
an application of quickly available
nitrogen at the proper time in the spring.
Our leading horticulturistS discounten-
ance the theory of biennial bearing and
hold that an orchard which is properly
fortified can and viii bear annually.
The definite trend toward increased
acreage in fruit calls for larger paintings
of our leading fruits and better care and
engagement of these paintings.

The other case is the Illustration OF
