TREATY RATIFIED

The U. S. Senate, in special session
called for the purpose, but after bitter
dispute, ratified the London Naval
Treaty on July 81, by vote of So to 9,
and President Hoover affixed his
signature.
This country is the first Power to
finally approve the agreement by
which the United States, British and
Japanse navies are limited entirely
and the French and Italian navies
partially.
The American action on treaty,
was completed almost three months
to the day since it was signed by the
plenipotentiaries of all five Powers
at London on April %. Designed to
permit America and British battle
fleets of equal strength and Japan
csc fleet from 60 per cent. to 70 per
cent. the strength of either, the
agreement becomes effective as
among these three when the last of
them shall have deposited it's ratifi-
cation in London.
The Italians and French come into
the extended battleship holiday and
some minor agreements as they
ratify. Moreover, the door is left
open for them to enter on a full limi-
tation basis whenever able to adjust
their differences.
Republicans voting against adopt
ing the treaty were: Bingham,
Hiram johnson, Moses, Oddie, Pine,
Robinson, of Indiana; Democrats:
Mcclellan, of Tennessee, and Walsh,
of Massachusetts,. A total of nine
votes.
The President is already on record
as of the belief that the treaty does
more than any other instrument in
recent years to dispel the suspicion,
distrusts and fears which breed war.

Forest Trees OF Maryland

We are in receipt of a booklet just
published by the State Forestry De-
partment, entitled ''Forest Trees OF
Maryland"
There is a growing interest in the
study of trees and it is the purpose
of this valuable little book to help in
the identification of the common
native trees of the State. There are
no less than 157 native specimens Of
trees growing in Maryland.
In its foreward the booklet states:
'Trees are our friends, and the bet
ter we become acquainted with them
the more we love them. There is
such infinite variety in form and
foliage as to challenge our interest
and study. Maryland is the meeting
ground of the tree species of the
North and those of the South. The
variation in climate and soil from
the sea coast in southeastern Mary
land, the home of the loblolly pine,
cypress, sweet gum, and water oak,
to the mountains of Western Mary
land, at elevations as high as $500
feet where such trees as sugar maple,
yellow birch, spruce, and tamarack
hold sway, give a cross section of
the tree flora of the whole eastern
United States"

BIG TREE CONTEST

The State Department of Forestry
has sent out last call to it's six hmm
dred field men, including the District
Foresters and Forest Wardens
throughout the State, to scout their
sections for big trees in the state
wide tree contest started a few years
ago by the Maryland Forestry Asso-
citation, and which is still open. The
object of the contest and the purpose
of the search is to discover, measure,
and photograph the biggest trees of
each species growing within the
state, then, as a permanent record,
"a description of the largest tree of
each kind, with picture, if possible,
will be published in a book that is
now being prepared by the Forestry
Department on the noted trees of
Maryland.
Anyone who-ha very large tree
of it's kind, whether native or foreign
species, should send in the. measure
ments to the Forestry Department,
Baltimore, so as to get it in the rec
ord. Three measurements are re-
quired:
l. The circumference, in feet and
inches, around the trunk of the tree
at a point Az feet above the ground.
2. The greatest diameter of the
crown in feet.
3. The height of the tree in feet.
1t should be noted that the biggest
trees of the species that ordinarily
do not reach large size rate just as
high as the big trees of the big
species. Take, for example, the
lockwood which ordinarily is bush,
and was found in the vicinity of
Vinton, Somerset Couty, that meas
ured 8 #. 8 ms. in circumference at
Az feet from the ground, and had a
spead of crown of 10 feet, and meas
ured % feet in height. Likewise the
alder, which is generally bush
growing in swampy places, was
found of tree size near Oakland,
measuring II inches in circumference
at AZ feet, s feet spread of crown,
and 81 feet height. Also the holly,
which ordinarily does not reach tree
size was found, in the case of tree
near Easton, to have attained the
enormous size of 7ft 10 ms, in cir
conference at ~ feet. with a spred
of AZ feet, and height of So feet.
Maryland is noted for its big trees
and those already measured make a
large and distinguished collection of
something over 600 trees, compris-
ing 10 species, but there are many
more to be heard from.
So far there have been recorded
from Cecil County eight large trees
of seven different species. The
official cards for recording large tree
measurements will be sent upon re-
quest to the State Department of
Forestry, All Fidelity Building,
Baltimore. Have some pride in
trees of your County! Tell us the
largest trees that you know, and in
terest your friends and neighbors in
this contest

11t1HAT would you give for
Jul some real old-fashioned corn
mullins such as your grand
mother used to make-crisp and
golden-brown without; lig h t,
fluffy and golden-yellow within?
They came to the table, you re-
member, tucked under a napkin
so that not breath of goodness
could escape until they were
quickly split, buttered and ready
to be devoured with homemade
peach marmalade or spiced goose
berries.
Cost Only Fifteen Cents
Well, you need give only fifteen
cents for eighteen of these golden
treasures, that melt in your mouth
and linger in your memory. For
here is the old recipe with canned
corn substituted for the fresh, be-
cause they had loads of time, but
less canned foods in those days.
The cost is counted for you to the
very penny.

j. S. MEETS JAPAN
OR ITALY IN FINAL
Davis Cup Match to Decide
Opponent of Americans
Looks Like Toss Up.

BY the Associated Press.
A MERICAS rival in the interxone
~ finals Of Davis Cup tennis play
n will be either Japan or Italy.
Japan reached the final round
of European zone competition yesterday
by eliminating Czechoslovakia, "a hours
after Italy had completed its conquest
of Australia, three matches to two.
The Japan-Italy tie, to be played
July IL, IL and Is, looks like a toss
up. 1taly'S team is built around the
highly competent player Baron H. L.
de Morpurgo, with Giogio de Stefani
and Pietro GaSlini as his chief as
sistants. De Morpurgo won both his
singles matches against Australia and
also played losing game with Gaslini
in the doubles. De Stefani won his
first singles match in the Australian
tie, but lost the second after De Nor
purge definitely had clinched the series
with victory over Harry Hopman.
Japan had a closer fight than 1t had
expected with Czechoslovakia, but
clinched the series yesterday when
Takeichi Harada, ace of the Japanese
team, defeated Jan Kozeluh in straight
sets.
The survivor of the Japan-Italy
series will meet the United States,
American zone champions, in the inter-
zone finals, July 10, 10 and 20.
The winner of this tie will meet
France for the cup July IS, IS and 81.
