When the Roman emperor want

The Semi-mysterious fungus was

Of mushroom culture.
Miss Charles does. She has been
delving into them for IS years and
anything she doesn't know about
mushrooms nobody ever has known.
There are no colleges or other in

bination can the door to successful
mushroom growing be opened"
Although commercial mushroom
cultivation in North America Is
confined TO q comparatively few
growers. located principally in the
cast. many persons are interested in
producing them for home consump-
ton or commercially TO a limited
extent. They car be grown In al
most any section Of the country
where proper conditions are obtain
able.
Mushrooms long have been
shrouded in an air OF mystery be-
cause they grow under such appar-
emily unnatural conditions. They
do not require sunshine. or even
light. SO essential TO most crops.
Dark cellars. caves and especial
" constructed nurseries are used in
commercial production. Some vari-
cites of mushrooms grow in the open.
near decayed wood or around old
orchards. In England they are
grown very commonly in the light.

MEXICO CITY. June le-tF-
The Mexican government and

agreed upon a basis Of settlement
Of the Mexican religious contro-
versy. Approval Of the Pope today
vas all that was needed to make
the agrc1-,ent effective and permit
an Episcopal order returning the
priests to Mexican churches.
The settlement. as arrived al by
President Portes Gil and Arch
bishop Leopoldo Ruiz Y Flores OF
Michoacan and Bishop Pascuai
Diaz OF Tabasco. with Ambassador
Morrow as intermediary. does not
involve constitutional changes. but
merely a broader INTERPRETATION ~
the religious laws and their consti-
tutionsl background.
The agreement is similar. II not.
indeed. identical TO that reached
last year In negotiations between
President Gales and Archbishop
Ruiz. which had their beginning In
n secret meeting IN the old fortress
at San Juan de Ulua. island in
the harbor Of Vera Cruz. Vatican

Gated the situation.
The settlement was reached Mon

bishops. Monday night a cable
gram containing its terms was sent
TO Pope Plus at Vatican City.

forth q highly reasoned argument
for q conference OF statesmen TO
reach such an agreement rather
than of naval experts. who. he said.
were more interested In naval
maintenance than naval reduction.
The experts task In the next
negotiations. General Dawes said,
would be to fix upon a naval yard
stick" or standard OF equivalent
naval values. reconciling such d.
vergent factors as age, displace-
ment, gun elevation. etc. With
such a "yardStick," he said. the
statesmen could work.
Huge Financial Burden
The ambassador mentioned the
huge financial burden carrying out
present naval building programs
would inflict upon nations. saying
the authorized contemplated naval
program OF the United States alone
amounts TO $l.1T0. 800 200. ~
He then went into the roles play
ed by financial experts in the rep
arations and similar conferences.
and developed the proposition that
whereas they were necessary to the
success Of those conferences they
would impair rather than abet
progress If they played similar
parts In a naval conference.
