\ little incident that gives an in
sight into the character of the man
was related to the writer by a citi-
zen of Clayton. He asked his small
son what he would do if his father
and his mama should suddenly be
taken away from him. The little
fellow paused for a moment before
saying he would have to ask some
one to hclp him. When asked by his
father TO whom would he appeal
he quirkly said "Mr. Wade"
: man who can touch the hearts
of little children and inspire therein
trust and confidence is a valuable
man Such was George H. Wade.
He is gone, In his home there

SHIP SUBSIDY BILL, BACKED BY
ADMINISTRATION, PASSES HOUSE

Washington. Nov. 29.--The admin
istration shipping bill, around which
was waged the most bitter partisan
fight of the present congress, was
passed today by the house with p
votes to spare. The final count was
2OS to 1874
SiNly-nine Republicans broke
away from their party organiza-
ton and opposed the bill, while four
democrats supported it,
There never was much doubt as
TO the result, but the margin by
which it went thru was much low
or than estimates publicly given by
most of the leaders. II was, how
ever, Just about what they figured
on privately.
In the face of threats to delay, if
not prevent its passage, by the SEN
ate, the measure will 20 Monday to
the senate committee, which plans
to accept it as passed by the house
and take the fight to he floor next
week.
The usual motion to recommit,
for the purpose Of striking out the
provision relating TO tax exemptions
and direct compcnsatiOns, was made
by Representative Hardy, Texas,
ranking Democrat of the merchant
marine committee which framed it,
and defeated, 2i5 to i72.
To Put Flag on the Seas
Chairman Greene of the merchant
marine committee and representa-
tive Edmonds, Pennsylvania, rank
ing Republican, who shouldercd the
fight thru the house, declared to-
night that despite amendments, the
measure would pave the way for
putting the American flag at high
place on the seas. The general
view ON both sides was that had an
attempt been made to pass it as
framed, il would have been swept
TO overwhelming defeat.
There was shout Of approval on
the Republican side when the final
vote was announced, but it was not
half so hearty as that given Rep
rescntative Mondell, Wyoming, the
Republican leader, who in a closing
address, pleaded earnestly with his
party to stand behind the presi-
dent and give the bill a sweeping
majority. Mr.. Mondell had the last

roots, and since it is planted out
while dormant The new roots will
not begin 10 grow until the weather
conditions become favorable in the
spring. The longer the transplant
cd tree is in the ground before II
makes proper connection with the
soil through the development Of
new roots 10 supply the necessary
amount of moisture TO the top for
evaporation and transportation the
more danger these is of injury. n
the top Of the tree is not getting the
proper moisture either because OF
the lack Of roots or moisture in the
soil it is quite likely TO be sluntcd
or injured Therefore, under such
conditions the idea should he to
reduce the period between tho time
NJ transplanting and the time when
the roots begin TO develop as much
a, possible This can be done To a
large degree by spring planting. On
the other hand one should not wait
until the buds begin 10 start growth.
II is better TO transplant before the
plants start growing. Some species
start growing earlier than others,
such as roses, apricots, Japanese
plums and peaches.
II any fall planting is done, be
sure The soil is kept moist during
the winter and spring, as this will
tend 10 mitigate any winter injury
that might occur. Small shrubs
and grape vines if planted in the
fall should be heeled up with dirt
10 protect them during the win
ter. About four TO six weeks before
growth starts in the spring in ihe
warmer southern parts Of the state,
the dirt should be removed from
around the plants.
II trees are purchased before time
for transplanting they may be
heeled in. This is a simple opera
tion and consists in digging a trench
Of an angle of i5 degrees and deep
enough 10 bury the roots and about
foot or two Of stem. Since the
trees are heeled in at an angle there
is some danger Of air spaces being
left between the roots and the low
or wall Of the trench. Therefore,
always see that there are no dir
spaces left. and always water the
trees Immediately after they are
heeled in. Never plant tree, shrub
or vine without pruning IL back.
The amount Of pruning depends on
the size and kind Of specimen.
