BR|TISH|N VIOLENT
SINGAPORE DISPUTE.
Dominion Premiers Expected
to Take Stand in Naval
Base Argument.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, October 16-Opinion here
regarding the proposed British naval
base at Singapore is so violently di-
vided that special interest is attached
to the line the dominion premiers
especially those of Australia and New
Zealand, will take on Wednesday,
when the question is expected to
come before the imperial conference.
The belief prevails here that Aus
tralasia favors the project and is will
ing to contribute toward defraying
its expense and. accordingly, op-
ponents of the base are doing what
they can to bring its supporters to
the contrary view.
Admiral Against Project.
Admiral Percy Scott. who has no
confidence in the utility Of battle
ships and who is hotly antagonistic
10 the Singapore plan, told meeting
Of the Australian Association of Lon
don last evening that the proposed
base was utter foolishness. The only
Key to safety and defense, he said,
was in the use Of airplanes. mines
and submarines.
If these were properly provided and
properly operated Japanese fleet
could never reach Australia, nor
could an American feet reach Japan
in the event of hostilities, while If
Singapore were similarly equipped no
hostile ships could ever get within
200 miles of that port, he said.
Called Nanton Waste.
He declared it was wicked, wan
ton and wiliful waste of the taXpay-
Crs' money to construct such docks at
Singapore, and that the idea had
originated with men who were either
ignorant or too lazy to analyZe the
basis for their opinion.
Admiral Kerr took the same line.
He asserted that distinguished
American admiral had told him that
but for the shipbuilding vote the
United States would scrap every bat
tleship she was building. The pres
ent type of ship, Admiral Kerr said.

PRuNE THE TREES AND VINES
Trimming and Spraying Only SURE
Way to obtain Good Crops
Free From Disease.

Fruit trees and vines must be
pruned. as well as sprayed, at the
proper time. Growers cannot hope
to obtain fruit from trees and vines
that are neglected In this respect
and such treatment Is necessary every
yenr.
The early springtime Is regarded as
the best time to do this job, which
should be done with the greatest OF
care, TO save injury to the trees and
vines.
If one is not experienced in the art.
1t would be well to get information
from someone who knows; otherwise
valuable tree or vine may be ruined,
or put out of possible bearing.
Spraying requires equal If not
more knowledge than pruning. There
are so many diseases of fruit trees
and vines that one must be well
yersed in the subject to apply the
proper spray at the proper time.
Many trees and vines fail to produce
because of being thoroughly satu-
rated with disease

disposed of at any time, and all stones
and other refuse material should be
removed. If there are enough stones
present. they might be placed in neat
and attractive piles and either flowers
or vines of some sort run over them
next season. II the vacant lot is near
enough to the house, it can be spaded
and all other work done at odd times
During the winter months 1t is well
to study the seed catalogues and make
up an order of seeds, Including per-
haps 10 to Is different kinds OF veg
ctables. To this should be added IL
list of four or five Towering plants,
such as zinnias, cockscomb, scarlet
sage and nasturtlum, to be used for
border plants. Snap beans, lima
beans, tomatoes, onions, cabbage, car
rots, swiss chard, spinach, radishes and
lettuce are among the most impor-
tant crops for the small garden. Where
space will permit early Irish potatoes,
sweet corn, summer squash, musk
melons, cucumbers and pumpkins may
be included. 1t is far better, how
ever, in the small garden to plant not
more than 10 or II of the most impor-
tunt crops that are In greatest de-
mand as fresh food for the family.
Irish potatoes and sweet potatoes are
crops that require considerable space,
but at the same time 1t Is usually de-
sirabe to have small part Of the
garden devoted to them.

Attribute Their Success 10
Newspaper Advertising

In an interview today, Mr.. Warren
Wright, President Of the Calumet

socated the use Of newspaper adver-
Using, and points to Calumet's sue
cess as proof Of his statement.
Calumet sales are 2h times as
much as any other brand" stated Mr..
Wright, land we attribute this to our
lavish use of newspaper space. We
believe that the newspaper is the most
direct medium we can use in getting
our message across to the housewife.
and we know from our experience COW
ering thirty years that the housewife
will respond to newspaper advertis-
ing quicker than she will to any other
form of advertising.

newspaper advertisements because
they know that the newspapers set up
high standards for their advertisers.

All vegetable and flower seeds do

reasons why seed will not grow; but
