Huge Soup Pots on S. S. President Wilson.
San Francisco. .Tunc 5. —The provis
ioning of a large passenger vessel is al
ways a matter gs interest, and proves
especially so when it becomes necessary,
because of the particular trade the liner
is engaged in. to carry a wide variety
of foods. Vessels in the trans-Paeitie
passenger set-vice, running to the Far
East by virtue of the Tact that they car
ry a large number of Orientals as well as
Occidentals stock huge quantities of food
stuffs to appeal to everyone on board.
The fast mail and passenger liners of
the Pacific Mail Steamship Company,
plying between this port and China, .la
pan, the Philippines and Honolulu, are
excellent examples in this respect. The
quantity of food put on board the Presi
dent Wilson and similar vessels of the
line, and its variety and method of pre
jmration for the table is unusual.
The President Wilson for a round trip
to the Orient \Vill carry provisions suffi
cient to feed every passenger the liner
can carry, as well as her crew, for sixty
days. For the Occidental passengers,
practically all the food is placed aboard
at San Francisjo, and consists of as
sorted meats, poultry, fresh fish, vegeta
bles, fresh seasonal fruits aud dairy
products. Tlie fruit supply is replenish
ed at the various ports of call.
A total of 55.000 pounds of -meat arc
carried, of which 30.000 pounds is beef.
More than 1.200 dozen of various types
of poultry are stocked, including game
and barnyard species. Frnsh tish. lob
sters, shrimps, crabs and oysters to the
number of about 14,100 pounds are car
ried in the huge refrigerators of the Pres
ident Wilson, assuring the most fastid
ious of their favorite tinny food.
Thirty thousand pounds of potatoes,
32.000 pounds of assorted green and sal
ad vegetables and 1.000 pounds of sweet
potatoes are placed in the comm odious
bins of the culinary department prior to
sailing. In addition there are used 3,-
000 dozen eggs. 2.100 pounds of fancy
butter, 200 gallons of cream and 300 gal
lons of milk. A quarter of a ton of
cheese, 5 tons of Hour, two of cereals and
Having Trouble With Your Roses.
Kaleigh. N. C.. June ti.—Mildew on
roses may be checked by dustiug flow
ers of sulphur over the bushes and vines.
The sulphur will not remove the mil
dew but it will prevent further spread
ing. suggests (?. W. Fant. extension
plant pathologist for the State College
and State Department of Agriculture.
He advises that the sulphur -be dusted
on the plants several times after
blossoming this year, preferable wnile
dew is on the plant, and then repeated
next spring before blossoming. With
this care the rose plants should be,free
from mildew by the time begin
blossoming next season.
Mr. Fant says that Considerable com
plaints have come in to the college this
year about mildew and leaf blotch on
roses. He recommends the dusting in
early spring to prevept the mildew get
ting a start. If one has a spray outfit,
the use of commercial lime-sulphur
spray will be foiuitl more effective than
the flowers of sulphur. In that case the
liquid should not bej allowed to strike
the painted surface' of the hbuse at its
acts on the paint. It will also remain as
a stain on the foliage until washed off
by the rain and for this reason should
not be applied just before blossoming.
. “Well established roses represent a
considerable amount of trouble, are very
beautiful and therefore should be given
the proper -preservative care,” say Mr.

| liner over five thousand pieces of linen.
; daily washed in the ship's own laundry,
are utilized.
! The tourist, ordering from a menu pre

been spent in selecting the material for
ibis meals, how much skill enters into the
making and serving.

Commissioner of Education Tigert Speaks
at Wolford.—Declares Equal Oppor
tunity May Be Means of Saving Am
erica.
Spartanburg, S. C., June s.—“We
have a fifty-fifty chance "to save Ameri
ca,” declared Hon. John J. Tigert. Unit
ed States Commissioned of Education, in
his address before the graduating class
at. Wofford college yesterday, “and we
have two alternatives in dealing with the
mass of ignorance. AVe can either dis
franchise or enlighten the electorate. To
disfranchise means the nullifying of our
constitution ami the reversiug of govern
ment theory. Therefore, there is really
only one alternative—an equal oppor
tunity as far as education is concerned."
Dr. Tigert declared that education is
the basis of social and national t*ower.
Government is based on knowledge, he
said. Bolshevism is increasing in the
country every day. ‘Education is the
greatest means of producing achievement
and economic wealth," the speaker said,
"and I do not mean to ridicule auy Am
erican municipality or commonwealth
when 1 speak in plain terms of the vast
amount of ignorance.
"I believe Ohio is the greatest state in
the American tiuion. There arc other
states that are first iu a great many re
spects. but Ohio is second and third in
many respects that I consider it first."
"I have no money to invest in North
Carolina, because, as you know, 1 am a
school man. but North Carolina is leav
ing all the Southern States so fast they
do not realize it. The doctrine preach
ed in North Carolina that has brought
the present favorable state of affairs is
that the mittd and its products is great
er than the land and its products."
Jake Newell Tunis Doctor.
Charlotte News.
Attorney Jake F. Newell. promThent
Charlotte lawyer, has takeu* up another
profession.
Mr. Newell, well-known in tile legal
profession, as a political leader and
Sunday school teacher, has turned
doctor.
Monday morning in the Recorder’s
Court. Mr. Newel! had a negro client
who was charged with having Had
liquor for sale. The woman. Mag John
ston. frequent attendant at court ses
sions. had brought three small children
inside the bar with her with the claim
that the two older ones lmVe just re
covered from the measles and the baby
is now taking it. She told the court that
she had the liquor lor the sick children.
As soon as tile announced that the
B:iby was inking the measles Judge Wil
liams asked Mr. Newell to verify the
truth of her claim.
''Open your mouth." said the lawyer
to tlie four-or-five months oil
piekalnriniiy.
When the end of the alimentary
Value into view Mr. Newell bent over
and made a careful examination.
“It certainly is tlie measles, your
honor.” lie- announced.
The woman's alibi, however, seemed
pretty weak to the judge and he gave
her a suspended sentence of six months.
Pastor’s Salaries.
Gastonia Gazette.
Charity and Children puts in a good
word for tlie preachers of tlie country.
Along With (lie teachers, they have en
joyed a general raise in salaries, which
they so richly deserve.
The one handled dollar preacher is
a thing of the past. The church no
matter whether in the remote country
district or not. that offers its pastor
only one hundred dollars for one-fourth
time, -is either just beginning as a
feeble mission or is as dead as a door
nail.
A man of good equipment, who has
thoroughly prepared himself for the
ministry no longer waits in vain for a
decent call. The churches are on the
lookout for him. and usually lose no
time in offering him a place.
The time was when a thousand dol
lars was looked upon as a good salary
for a town church. Now two thousand
is poor pay. and a man of ability com
mands much more than that. There is
this to be said, however: two thousand
dollars now has hardly the purchasing
power of one thousand twenty years
ago. So after all pastors’ salaries have
not increased as much as the dollars and
cents involved would indicate.
Pastors' homes are being built at a
rapid rate. The Methodists have led all
others in this respect, n parsonage being
considered by them a necessary part of
the equipment of a field—-almost as
necessary as tlie church building itself.
And so almost every charge in, the
Methodist church in the state is equip
cd with a comfortable parsonage.
But the Baptists are coming along
with rapid strides in this respect also,
and it is a Vast, advantage to apastor
not to be-at tile tender merries of n
landlord, pay exorbitant rent, and be
asked to vacate at the will of the owner.
Our preachers are ‘Tinning into tbeir
Own at last and we rejoice with them
that, while they cannot live in luxury
yet .they can at least par flieir grocery
bills, and send their children to school.
Matching VY'its.
A Californian and a New Englander
were matching stories.
"Why.", said the Californian, “we
grow oabbage so big that an army of
soldiers can camp under one.”
"That's nothing." said the New Eng
lander. “we make copper kettles iu New
Englnnd so big that a thousand men
can be riveting one and yet be so far
apart they can’t hear each other ham
mer.”
“Go on." said the Californian “whivt
would any one use a kettle of that size
for?" •
"Why. to boil your California cabbage
in" said the New Englander.
Had no Opinion.
It was during the impanelling of a
juty: the following colloquy occurred:
“You are a property holder?”
“Yes, your honor.”
“Mhrried-ror single?"
“I have been married for five years,
your honor.”
“Have you formed or expressed any
.opinion?”
“Not for fiVe years, your honor.”
~i — r-
Nothing oh Him,
"Yeu know." said the woman whose
motor car had run down a man; “you
must have been walking very cnrefessly.
I have beett driving a cat for
years.” •' vs {•" .
“Lady. you hive nothing on me. I
have be*n walking for fifty-four years.”
THF CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE
BUSINESS AND THE OUTLOOK.
Philadelphia Record.
Here we are beginning June with
ideal weather for the roses, and the re
tail stores feel the effect immediately.
The lateness of the spring season nnd
its retarding effect naturally, but
merchants are offering special induce
ments to their customers, and the wage
increases in many industries have been
reflected in larger mass buying cajiacity.
The slowing down in the basic indus
tries has been extremely gyaduul. The
steel ingot production continues at the
rate of 50.000.000 gross tons a year, a
rate established in April and maintain
ed throughout May, to the amazement
of the more conservative, who didn’t
believe such a thing possible.
Thq oil industry continues ro break
previous records with a total for the
domestic fields in excess- of 2.000.000
barrels a day. Interviews with leaders
in the motor car industry in Detroit
indicate a general belief that no s:mnh
is looked for in that quarter, notwith
standing the high pressure that has been
necessary to fill orders. Records in rail-
Voad car loading arc at the figures of
'ast fall's peak, with me railroads bet
ter prepared than before fur lieayy
traffic by reason of equipment and re
"air exiwnditure.
According tt> the reports to Brad
street's trade, crop and industrial condi
tions are more irregular and ''spotted"
than they were a week ago. There is a
sharper distinction now in different
branches of industry be! ween activity
>n old orders and the development of
now business, say Dun's Review. Pro
duction at -hinny plants continues at a
high rate to fill contracts previously
olai-ed. but pressure of demand iu var
ious quarters has reciOitly re’axed. This
•ondition prevails in leading basic lines,
vet the heavy purchasing of earlier
months had covered many requirements
wed ahead and some abatement ot buy
ing was to be expected. It is a wlttile
iome sign, after the rapid expansion cf
he first quarter, that consq-vative
'cadencies predominate in most markets
ind that over-extern-on of operations is
'wing avoided.
The past week marked the e’imlnq
' ion of premiums for prompt delivery of
steel and steel prodiiits in the Pitts
burgh distriit. Buying runtimes ligatT.
hut most prire.s bold firm, with relim-d
prodhhtion bused upon old rather than
new orders. At some of the n ills the
id orders are sufficient to continue
heavy prdnetion for several months,
i'ig iron prices e,. w sagged somewhat,
mil < '.mnellsville eok“ is easier.
In the textile trades irregiilantf con
tinues. There has ~oen further curtail
n - lit of p-odueti- ii bf the inti's, Several
>' *W England sac -: '-, were closed, and
others were operated on a. folii"dnys'
schedule. Nevertheless, there is consid
erable optimism expressed, with the
hope that present dullness will give way
to a quiet buying movement. The raw
cotton market strength in the early
part of Mu,- week was dissipated by the
tmb'icution of* tin* Govern incut estimate.
The raw wool iipirket continued firm,
with limited demand.
Crop reports from winter wheat -e -
‘ions indicated a loss of 1.1.00fK000
bushels in Kansas, ifml there were other
factors that might have induced buying
in the Chicago grain market, but they
were disregarded. Part of the bearish
propaganda has been to the effect that
if large operations were undertaken, the
Government, under recent, legislation,
might step inand interfere with their
completion. But fears on this score
were removed by the announcement
from the supervisor of tlie Government
Grain Futures act that there was no
liriiit on trading iu grains for future de
livery and that the aim of the Ad
ministration isto build up and improve
the marketing system rather than to
hamper it.
Call money in—New was 4'A
and 5% per cent., tlie same as tlie pre

Cats a Source of Danger.
Cats ore great carriers of disease
germs, and scratches frqm their claws
are sources of real danger, ns those
claws are generally coated with a mass
of germs whlchytnay cause Infection,
and for these reasons alone should not
be allowed tc associate too intimately
with young children whether the latter
are asleep or awake.
