Walch Held Moderate.

The interallied control commission
comprises one delegate from France.
England. Belgium, Italy. Japan and
the United States. The president is
Gen. Camille Walch. who is held in
Berlin circles to be man OF moder-
ate views.
Despite the inclination to Weld to
the inevitable necessity of accepting
the disarmament note as a formal
document demanding serious consid-
GRAFTON, there is strong undertone
of caustic resentment at what is view
ed in official political circles as a
petty" document.
Apparently German officiaIdom is
seriously reckoning with the posi-
bility OF the convoca ton of another
European conference. at which the
whole range of postwar problems,
especially those pertaining TO the oc-
cupation of the Ruhr and to a security
pact. would be given formal considera-
tion by all interested powers.
The present disarmament note has
suggested to German officials the ur-
gency of such a conference. The Ger
man view is that the present pro-
cedure of dealing with these various
postwar issues by exchanges of notes
and by the deliveries of ultimatums
not only fails to achieve tangible re-
the economic pacification of Europe.
Industrial Leaders Bitter.
Industrial and financial leaders are
outspoken and even bitter in their de.
nunciation of the allied note. They
charge it was inspired by economic
jealousy, and. furthermore. that it is
an open assault upon the Dawes plan
for the rercovery of reparations in
that it aims to throttle German eco
to furnish the funds with which the
Dawes plan payments are to be made.
The only danger that threatens
the Dawes plan is politics. and poll

of discussion of the effect of what
Germany considers political heckIing
regarding the country's economic de-
velopment. After waiting FIVE
months to learn the nature of our

solemnly informed that the German
cavalry has a surplus of horseshoes

What TomorrowMeans to You
Cancer.
BY MARY BLAKE.

The planetary aspects of tomor-
row are favorable during the fore
noon and become excellent during the
early afternoon and evening, al
though later on they assume a
rather adverse nature. If you have
been in doubt as to the right mo-
ment for the initiation of any new
enterprise. if you have. been waiting
for some auSpicious' occasion on
which to commence the working out
of some new. thought, change or idea.
tomorrow is the appointed time and
all the signs counsel to do it now.
II is also a propitious opportunity for
the SolemniZation of marriage and
those who are wed tomorrow will
never regret the step they take. Late
at night there are some sluggish
vibrations that indicate lack of
responsiveness and a tendency to
heckle or ffRd fault.
"A boy born tomorrow will not, at
the beginning of it's career. enjoy
very good health. On the contrary.
he viii suffer from many ailments of
Il more or less serious character Once
his anxious perisd- is passed. how
ever, he will flourish like the green
bay tree and develop a strong and
vigorous manhood. A girl however.
viii be robust. and healthy from her
birth and sickness of any grave ma
ture will never be her lot. Both will
possess cheerful dispositions and be,
in a sense, especially during the
period of childhood. both careless and
irresponsible, trying at all times to
evade duty rather than comply with
it. They Will, however, on attaining
maturity undergo a. change and be-
come good citizens. with an ever
present desire to make up in sincere
effort for the time they frittered
away in their youth.
If tomorrow is your birthday YOU
can travel better alone than in com
pany: You possess keen UNDER
standing and a remarkably quick per-
ception, but lack the ability and often
the desire to explain your ideas to
others. especially if they are at. all
slow witted. This is; possibly, one
of the reasons why you do not attain
that material prosperity to which
your many abilities entitle you. 1t
is such an effort for you to instruct
the materialiZa ton of your plans that
elect to do everything yourself, which
is incompatible, owing to human
limitations, with success.
You possess a charm that is very
attra and are blessed with the
gift of conversation. well developed
sense of humor and a love for all
that is artistic. Most of the unpleas-
ant spots in your life are smoothed
over by your calm assurance and
kindly spirit.

Bee Balm.

As YOU motor through the suburbs
these days have you caught glimpse
of some unbelieyably crimson, lovely
flower and wondered what it is? 1t is
the scarlet bee balm. with it's royal
haads of blossoms, and surely no
more gorgeous native flower exists
The scarlet bee balm is a.. native of
the eastern United States, but, it so
happens that just around the District
of Columbia it Is absent as wild
plant and grows only in gardens.
The yellow bee balm is native how
ever. It's petals are a lemon yellow
spotted with purple, and there are
purple and white bee balms, too, which
occur wild with us. All of them are
rich in an aromatic oil which, on close
inspection, may be seen glittering in
the form of a tiny oil drop in every
one of the plants thousands of pores.
The odor so spicy sweet, lures humans
as much as the flowers colors, and it
guides bees to the peculiarly rich nec-
taries.
The bee ba1ms are all. of the mint
family, and of it they are perhaps
the showiest native mints. You may
always tell a member of the mint
family even if it has no aroma, by
the. square stem, opposite leaves and
the peculiar shape of the flower, which
is like two f1aring lips, the upper gen.
orally curling upward and smaller, the
lower larger, surging outward or
downward and serving as a landing
stage to insects. The flower tube is
generally very long. so that not all in.
sects can enter it. For elaboration and
grace of form. for brilliant color, the
scarlet bee balm is not inferior to any
orchid. The only difference is in the
bee balm's favor-it is hardy native
instead of a tender hothouse creature.

sion of fruit-bearing trees"
Are not nectarines closely related
to peaches?" I asked
Yes, they are even more than first
cousins. are often classified as dis.
tinct species and doubtless the two
fruits branched off from the same an
cestral tree type in comparatively re-
cent times.
In my old home in New England
there were four peach trees growing
in the garden. one of them known as
/ 'Melocotoon, and one single branch
always bore nectarines. which seems
to have been a sport or a revision to
the ancestral type. Also l observed
that in crossing peaches among them
selves there sometimes will be found
varieties with a smooth skin.
With this in mind, I made some
experiments in crossing the Muir
peach and the white nectarine. The
nectarine was very acid. but with a
smooth skin, while the peach was
hardy, immune from curlleaf and the
fruit very sweet, free-stone but COW
cred with the disagreeable fuzz COM
mon to all peaches.
After a few generations these
peach -nectarine hybrids have
resulted in q number of variations
many of them having the smooth skin
of the nectarine and the size and
quality of the peach The best of
these, the 'Opulent.' while too soft
for shipment, is quite hardy and is
grown where the temperature is 40
degrees below zero. The 'Opulent'
was so named because it is the best
quality Of all known peaches"
"Will you try the stoneless peach
next"
"As yet very little has been &C.

patience are necessary. Both the
quality of the pulp of the peach and
the vigor of the tree would be in.

THE most common variety in this

THE Oriental peach has been cul-

It's fruits and perhaps for this reason
is not very hardy. The European
type is vigorous. although subject to
