of the War Department, issued after
Mr.. Ford conferred last week with
President Coolidge and Mr.. Weeks, in
which it was stated that Mr. Ford
was not aware of the legal entangle-
ments involved in the inclusion of the
Gorgas steam plant in the properties
Mr.. Silver said, was "incomprehensi-

At the time of the issuance of the
statement by Secretary Weeks, which
asserted that Mr.. Ford did not know
of the legal situation in which these
properties (the eIurgas plant and
transmission lines) are involved" the
war secretary explained, he had been
advised during the conference with
Mr.. Ford and his engineer, w. B.

ORCHARD AND GARDEN NOTES

A rich, friable, deep, we'll drained
soil will grow good vegetables.
Schwaben, Mrs. Pendleton, Prince
of Wales, Panama and LONELINESS
are all good varieties of gladiolus.
Locate the family garden near
the house. 1t is easier to care for
and to harvest its products.
Careful grading pays, whether
the product to be marketed is fruit,
vegetables or flowers.
Red radishes, like Scarlet Globe,
are more popular than white sorts.
Bright colored fruits or vegetables
always seem to sell easiest.
Most birds are friends of the
plant grower. Special efforts can
well be taken to encourage the nest
ing of quail, peasants and song
birds on every farm.
First or second paintings of veg
etables should be made now. Grow
large variety of vegetables, at
least Is or 20 kinds,
1t is easy to keep children in
the home if there is something to
interest them, Pleasant surround
ings, a garden, an acre of corn, a
calf, chickens, or a hog all their
own often is a deciding factor in
making young folks like the farm.
