Senator Reed Renews
Associations Formed
In French Capital
Attends Reunion of Amerii-
can Legion in Paris-Mrs.
Reed and Family Sojourn.
ing in Switzerland.

Senator David A. Reed Of Pennsyl-
vania has been in Paris for a few
weeks to attend the meeting of the
American Legion and incidentally to
renew acquaintances formed when
he was a major in the 3l1th Field
Artillery. A. +. F.. and frequently in
the French capital. Senator Reed
has been travelling with Mrs. Reed
and Miss Rosamund and Dave, jr
since June. and left his family in
Geneva, Switzerland, while he went
to Paris for the military reunion.
The Pennsylvania statesman is a
quiet person, not given much to
frivols. and. according to some friends
with him in the European sojourn, his
principal concern was to satisfy hun
ger in the ways which are familiar
and not impair his digestion and lay
the foundation for troubles next Win
ter by indulging in the rich food
habitually served in the Paris restau-
rants. In fact, Senator Reed deems
as one Of his signal triumphs that
no was able to induce the mighty
girthed chef of the Cafe de Paris to
peel and boil him white potatoes and
serve minus any sort of sauce what
ever except a bit of butter with salt
and black pepper Likewise, he sue
ceeded in having broiled to a turn a
steak which he had personally Sc
lected under the guidance of some
newspaper friends also in attendance
on the American Legion festivities
but with long Partisan experience in
matters culinary. And he actually
had potatoes and steak served at one
and the same time-and this without
having the fierce-looking. bearded
cook fly into a towering rage.
Senator Reed and scores Of other
visitors to the American Legion re-
union find that Paris has not changed
much in the matter OF its famous
cafes, and the visitor who does not
consider EaStronomy as one Of the
tino arts is not highly regarded. The
old restaurants still attract their
generous patronage, and there are
many new ones added. The gourmets
who frankly admit themselves as such
patronize the celebrated La Tour
d'Argent, where King Edward of
Britain used to eat canard au sang
or duck very rare and red with such
gusto and filet de sole cardinal, pre-
pared after the recipe given the chef
of that remote day by the great
Richelieu. Frederick, the old chef
with the flowing white whiskers, has
gone the way of his royal patron,
Edward, and the new proprietor is an

Americans still flock to the Mon
taSne. on the brow of Montmarte
familiar to them during the World
War. and where the owner wears an
American Legion button in his white
Jacket, and when he f1ourishes a
waiter on high shows a red Legion of
Honor sash neatly crossed over his
waiStcoat.
Mr.. Herrick, the American Ambas-
sador who is a diplomat of the most
exalted order. has never committed
himself as to his favorite restaurant
in Paris. He does not frequent them
except on occasion, and no doubt has
his plain potatoes and steak served
when he likes from his own kitchen
He gives occasional supper parties

rants all along the boulevards

Golden, Jonathan. Delicious. Winesap
and Yates. These are not all of the
good varieties but are generally recOg-
nized as being among the leaders for
use in home orchards in the South.
Early Harvest, Yellow Transparent
and Red June are all early summer
apples. The Horse apple comes along
in midsummer and Crimes Golden
and Jonathan are late summer or early

Delicious and then the Winesap and
Yates in the late fall or early winter.

ance. Wild Goose and Damson make

The Damson is especially good for
preserving, and the other varieties
named to be eaten as fresh fruit.
Where room can be given for only two
varieties. Red June and Abundance
will probably be the best. unless one
Especially wants some for preserving
purposes. In this case use the Red
June for eating purposes and the Dam
son variety for preserving.
I Best Pears 10 Plant.
Pears blight to such an extent that
only a few varieties should be planted
in the South. except in the upper por-
tions. In the lower part of the South
the Sand Pear or Pineapple pear
should be planted. as ii is blight proof
and is excellent for canning and pre-
serving. The Kieffer. while not blight
proof. is not so susceptible to this dis
ease as the other varieties. and wher,
one does not wish TO grow the SAM
or Pineapple pear, the Kieifer is prob
ably the next best choice. Other good
varieties are CARRIER, Seckel and thc
Bartlett.
| Except in the lower part OF The
South. every home orchard should
have in it a few cherry trees. Only
the sour varieties will succeed in the
South. The Montmorency and Early
Richmond are two OF the best of tbs
sour varieties.
| One or two trees OF the japanese
lpersimmon should be found in every
home orchard in the South. 1t will
succeed wherever the native or wild
persimmon grows. The fruit is espc-
cially large being as large as a good
sized peach. and is delicious. Tame

Grapes will grow practically any
where in the South. The leading va
rieties are Concord. Niagara. Della.

or three varieties, our choice wonli
be Moore's Early. Diamond and Con

HOME
SHOULD HAVE
FRUIT TREES
Most City Lots Large
Enough for a Few
Choice Trees.
HOW TO SELECT THEM
Peach Tree Popular, Plum
Also Good and Pear
Does Well.

Every home should have some fruit.
whether there is much or little space
available. Most of the lots in towns
and cities have sufficient space for n
few trees, and such space could not
be made use of in a more profitable
way than to set fruit trees on it,
provided one will give them the proper
attention. And Their, is no reasonable
excuse for anyone in the country not
having a home orchard of some size.
Fruit trees can be set in the South
any time during the fall. winter or
very early spring. OF course they
will have TO be set before the buds
begin TO swell in oder TO give them
Il fan chance of living.
When setting fruit trees for home
use the selection of varieties is OF ut
most Importance, because what one
wants is fruit ripening over as long
period Of time as possible. The
commercial fruit grower usually con-
fines his efforts to comparatively
few varieties. The varieties that are
bsst for commercial growing are NOT
always the best for home use. and as
said above. it is of the utmost i'm
portsnce that the proper varieties be
selected. whether one is growing fruit
for ZONE use or for commercial pur-
poses.
The peach tree succeeds in practi-

cally all sSeS ions of the South. but
there is onT thing that peach tree
will not stand, and that is wet feet.
Few, if any fruit trees will do this.
Therefore one Of the very first things
to do is to see to it that the land
where the trees are TO be set is prop
erIy. drained. A low. wet place is al
ways to be avoided. ynnleSs, of course,
1t can be properly drained.
1t is also important TO select as far
as possible for fruit trees, ground that
is properly air drained, as well AS
water drained. 1t is well known
fact that cold air is heavier than
warm air and settles to the bottom.
Therefore wherever it can be done, Sc
lect a high piece OF ground for the
fruit trees, so as TO insure as far rs
possible, proper air drainage. This
will go long ways toward preventing
damage by late frost and freezing,
because it is always in the 10y places
that are improperly aid drained that
the greatest damage from late fros.
takes place. or course where one has
only limited amount OF ground avail.
able. ii may not be possible 10 select
a l. ph place to set the trees. but this
is the ideal that shorld be approqched
as nearly as possible.
Kinds of Fruit TO Plant.
Now a little more as TO kind and
variety. In practically all sections OF
the South, one should have in the
home orchard, some peaches, apples
plums. pears, cherries. Japanese per
simmons, grapes and figs. In the
lower part of the South, cherries and
apples do not succeed 10 any great ex.
tent. This is especially true of the
cherry. When one is in a section
where these two do not succeed. elm.
ipc te them and plant moro largely 10
the fruits that do succeed well in the
lower part of the South. such as figs,
grapes, japanese perSimmons and
peaches.
The following varieties of peaches
will give ripe fruit the entire summer
season: Mayflower or Early Rose,
Carman. Hiley. Belle OF Georgia. FL.
berta. Heath Cling. and Salway or
Krummel's October. by planting some
of all of these varieties. ripe peaches
may be had from lSte May or early
June until late September or early
October. The very early and the very
late varieties are not very good as 10
quality but coming early or late. they
are usually very greatly appreciated !.
Therefore for the home orchard. be
sure 10 plant at least few of the
Mayflower or Early Rose. Heath

One of the encouraging things about
the church and Sunday school work is
that the leaders are beginning to realize

realized for ages, and that is if success
is to be achieved systematic advertising
is necessary.
The Sunday schools of Montezuma
