Rushdi Bey said Turkeys foreign pol
icy was based on three outstanding
friendship treaties-those with Italy,
Greece. and Russia Friendly relations
with the Soviet Union he described as
greatly advantageous because Of Tur-
keys long Black Sea coast line.
Good Relations Praised.

FENCE COVERS.

There are several plants that are
very useful for covering unsightly
fences, or at least for concealing them
from view. For an annual, the castor
oil bean, Ricinus, makes rapid growth
when sown about the time lima beans
can be safely planted. Hollyhocks are
excellent, but require two years growth
from seed before sttaining useful size.
Various annual vines, such as the scar
let runner bean and cobaea, and even
the lima bean, make satisfactory covers
If given wire support.
For a permanent cover, where one Is
also interested in fruit, the ordinary
varieties of grape, such as Niagara and
Concord, make dense mass Of foliage
and at the same time reward the gar
dener with delicious fruit. For the
rural fence, the climbing ,honeysuckle
offers q cheap and effective cover, but
one would not care to introduce this
vigorous species into the urban grounds.
It is too vigorous and competitive.
Climbing roses are .geod fence covers.
but are difficult to Handle because Of
their thoCuS.

Bricker advised Secretary of State
Myers that he had withdrawn from the
case.
No call has been issued for a meeting
Of the State Democratic Central Com
mittee, and 1t looks as though Gov
Whites suggestion that this being an
Oh year In politics, it might be Just as
well not to Ill the vacant executive
chairmanship, made by Henry Brun-
ner's resignation, viii prevail. It Is
probable that when an executive State
chairman is elected John F. Nolan Of
Steubenville will be chosen.
Some surprise has been expressed
here that Gov. White declared himself
so vigorously in favor Of employment
insurance at the meeting of Governors
in San Francisco last week. When
bill to that effect was up in the Ohio
LEGISLATURE last Winter, he did not seem
to be in favor of 1t.
The liquor dealers of the State have
enjoined the State from proceeding to
collect the beer-bottle cap and barrel
tax provided for in new law by the
Legislature Just before its recent ad-
jolirnment. This will hold the collec-
ton back until the Legislature is in
session again by the Governors call,
and it Is expected that he will advise
against such q tax. He did not sign the
bill, letting it become q law without
his signature, as he explained, In order
that the State might get some much
needed revenue temporarily from this
source. The Governor is on record as
believing that the laboring man should
be able to get a glass of beer for a
nickel and he feels that this will be
impossible with additional taxation
upon the 80 per cent beer now sold In
the State.
The Governor has intimated that he

HARDY PHLOX.

The honors Of the Midsummer gar
den are easily taken by the phlox. There
is really no better plant for the peren-
nial border, but the plant easily be-
comes almost a weed II allowed to ma
ture its seed. Too often the seedlings
are inferior, reverting to the wild mag
meta colors. There are SO many fine
varieties that may be produced at nomi-
nal cost that there Is little need to
bother with seedlings unless one Is In
terested in breeding.
No plant surpasses the hardy phlox
n adaptability to wide range Of soil
and light conditions but, nevertheless,
the plants respond to good care by
yielding more and larger clusters Of
bloom.
Phlox Is troubled with few pests.
Occasionally mildew discolors the foil
age and sometimes a leaf blight re-
moves some Of the basal leaves. but
as rule the plants thrive with mini
mum of care.

DAY LENGTH.

Some gardeners may wonder why
their saliva or chrysanthemum plants
won't blossom in early Summer despite
the fact that they appear sufficiently
mature. Yet a few weeks later every
plant, rather irrespective Of size, will
burst into flower. It Is matter Of
adaptation to day length, in the case
Of the saliva and chrysanthemums to
short days, such as Autumn brings us
shortly. Some Of the hardy asters are
In the same group. Other species flower
only in Spring when the days are long
and still others have no particular light
requirements.
Were It not for this Hight effect
there would be very little Autumn bloom
In the flower garden. Another point,
that there is little use to attempt to
force certain flowers out Of season be-
cause they will simply grow and grow
and not flower until their day length
comes into season.

radio amateurs held meeting at
Braddock Heights, Nd, last week.
Lieut.. Briggs spoke on the work Of the
Naval Reserve communications service,
and he said that great deal Of interest
was manifested in it.
In a message to the members Of the
Naval Reserve. the chief Of naval op-
erations said:
THE Naval Establishment has been
called upon to render assistance to the
country at this time OF national finan-
cial stress through material decrease
in expeditures below the already mea-
ger appropriation. The Navy has
never been called upon In vain, and
its individual members are ever ready
and eager to uphold the traditions OF
the service through whatever personal
inconvenience or even self-sacr1f1ce
which may be involved.
1T may seem to US that the Naval
Reserve has been apportioned an un-
due percentage Of the cut in expendi-
lures. However, 1t should be remem-
bered that this terrific cut could not be
absorbed by the Navy on an equitable
percentage basis by all naval activities.
In absorbing the cut the main objective
was to damage the Navy as whole
and the national defenses af1oat as
little as possible, but nevertheless a
goodly portion of the cut has had to
be reflected in reduction of fully COM
missicned ships of the fleet.
THE Importance of the Naval Re-
serve Is fully appreciated by those high
In authority, and even at the expense
Of the forces adOat sufficient was ap-
portioned to the Naval Reserve to hold
together its shell and form Of organtza-
ton 50 that 1t may resume former
activities and be further expanded
toward mobilization needs, as soon as
the finances Of the country will per-
NIT. sincerely hope and confidently
believe that some progress out Of the
present depths may be expected with
the fiscal year beginning year from
next July. and with Gods blessing
further progress may be expected dur
ing the following years.
Meantime, I urge all reservists to
continue their activities as heretofore,
in 50 far as facilities permit, holding to-
gether their organizations and main
tendance, even though denied drill pay
or training duty. Let US not through
this temporary expedient and setback
lose the high state Of organized eff
cheney now attained.
THE Naval Reserve has again been
given an opportunity to perform ardu-
GUS and self-sacriflcing service. I am
sure that it will again rise to the
emergency and proudly justify the
faith in it of its brothers Of the regu-
lar service and the country"
The Naval Bureau of Navigation says
that it has received many complaints
from various officers who have en-
rolled in the engineering course that
they had not been able to purchase
the necessary chapters Of the engineer
ing instructions. The superintendent
Of documents Of the Government Print
ing Office has assured the bureau that
his Office will hereafter be able to at
tend to all reolIests for theSe charters.
