ROOT PREDICTS STRIKE AT
 EARLY DATE

ALBANY, Sept. 27. - Elihu Root, elected temporary chairman of tho Re publican Statc convention in session here today, delivered al address in which he predicted that there would be adopted at an early date laws that would prohibit strikes which cut off the supply of food or service neces- sary to the life of community, and would at the same time protect the liberty of workmen. "We are all-em- plovers, laborers and the general pub lic-apt to be impatient about strikes. So long as strikes were a contest to secure for labor a fair share of the wealth created by invention and dis covery, the sympathies of the public were with labor But when the strike becomes an attempt to coerce the pr
 lie into taking action by cutting off it's food or necessary service, public feel ing turns the other way"

SORRY SHE DIDN'T LIKE IT
But Anyway, That Particular Hat Wasn't for Sale, and It Made
 Little Difference.

In and out of department stores and millinery shops went the Woman and her friend, trying on hats trimmed with robbOn, hats Smothered in feath- CTS and hats where bloomed flowers that never were on sea land. The Womans friend was as hard to suit as the little girl in the Three Bears" They were all ''too" something. The Woman was growing weary, and spy ing an attractive black hat with some spfdery white feathers in a heap be fore another fussy shopper, she point ed it out to her friend.
 "Try to get a chance at that un- usual hat It has great deal of dis tinctfon,'' she whispered.
 The friend sidled up to the show case, and when the fussy shopper was trying on a yellow -fiowered creation, she seized the hat and viewed the eff feet in the glass. exclaiming: Ugh! I don't like this one a little bit''
 'Excusc me, madam" fcily said the fuSsy shopper, "that is my own hat bought in Kenosha. Sorry you don't admire it."-Chfcago Journal.

(Prepared by the United States Department
 of Agriculture.)
 Native nut trees, such as the black walnut and members of the hickory group including the pecan, have a po- tential value not generally realized. Aside from the well-known value of the timber of the walnut in the mak- ing of furniture, gun-stocks, and air plane propellers, and of the white hickories in the manufacture of auto mobile wheels, tool handles, and many other articles, and even of pecan wood in it's variety of uses, particularly for harness names, these trees, when rightly selected and placed, form most attractive ornamentals. But, in addi- tion to these uses, which alone are of enough importance to justify the care full preservation of existing trees and the planting of others, they have an economic value in the nuts produced.
 These native nuts, even though un- cultivated and unimproved, and, per haps, inferior in shell thickness and cracking quality. are preferred by many to any of the cultivated kinds from Europe and Asia
 Nut Crop Adds to Income.
 On many American farms by-prod- ucts or small crops make important additions to the income, and in many localities nut trees planted about the farm buildings, along the highways, or in other unOccupied spaces, or old trees that have been left in the clear ing away of the original forest, are depended upon to add notfceably to the bank account. Forwardlooking farmers want to make their trees pro- duce the best nuts and in the greatest possible quantity.
 First of all, every tree intended to bear nuts in quantity needs ample space, 60 feet being none too great an interval between trees of equal rate of growth, and larger trees, unless on the shady side, should be 100 feet apart. A fertile soil that is reason ably moist is best for nut trees, we'll drained clay loam being the most de sirable.
 Variety is next in importance to soil and location. Experienced observers know that nut trees do not come true to seed, and that the only way to reproduce a variety or identical type is by grafting or budding, as is done with apples, peaches, pears, and other fruits. Nurseymen in the north ern part of the country are now propa- gating several varieties of black wal nuts, oceans, hickories, and butternuts by these methods, but due to the fact that active interest began only a de- cade ago, none of these varieties has

receive no further attention; (3) cuts should be made in late winter while the trees are still dormant, or, at the latest, just before the leaves appear 1; (4) cuts should always be made slightly above a bud, which will as- sure renewal in case the graft should fail.
 Grating may be done by the com mon cleft method or the Slip-bark method. The former is usually en- ployed when the tree is still dormant and the latter at any time during the growing period, but the scions used must always be dormant, and as ScionS in that condition are seldom available after the first of April neither method is of much interest just now. It is now too late to top work trees this season, but those that have been cut back and small trees that may be budded without cutting back may be left until late summer or autumn, so that scions (then called bud sticls) of the better varieties may be obtained and buds from them in- serted in the bark of the new shoots
 Specially devised tools for remOv- ing the buds from the bud sticks and for removing pieces of bark of identi- cal size from the stock are on the market. Several are illustrated in Farmers Bulletin TOO, Pecan Culture. which contains much information of interest to nut propagators, and which may be obtained by writing to the Department of Agriculture, Washing ton, D. o. Budding by the patch bud'' method may be done at any time when the bark of the stock slips readily. On trees of rapid growth the bark will slip at almost any time in the summer. On young trees not cut back budding may be done in the first half of the growing season, whereas new shoots grown from below cutoff tops should be of sufficient size for budding during the latter half of the season. Dry spells frequently cause. the bark to tighten, but rains will loosen it later. The season for bud ding sometimes extends until the trees begin to go dormant During the lat ter half of the season buds may be selected from those formed at the base of the present seasons growth. Most of them will remain dormant until the following spring.
