gratitude for . the Tanlac treatment,
because of Its benefits to her and oth

statement :
"Tanlac Is the one medicine I can
recommend knowing full well It mer
its the highest praise, not only because
of what It has done for me, but bey
cause of what 1 have seen It do for
others. My brother was flat on his
back with typhoid for a long time, and
afterwards was so weak he could bare
ly walk from one chair to another. 1
gave him Tanlac and It was simply
marvelous the way it huilt him up.
"Nursing him through this Illness
left me weak and exhausted. I couldn't
eat anything to speak of and my food
hurt me, but Tanlac gave me a keen
appetite, strengthened my digestion,
and I gained fifteen pounds in weight
and am still in perfect health. As a
nurse and user of Tanlac, I give It
my unqualified endorsement."

Stresemann to Repudiate Treaty
and Abandon the Ruhr and
Rhineland.
MELLON FOR TIX REDUCTION
By EDWARD W. PICKARD
Chancellor stresemann of
Germany made two momentous
decisions last week. The tirst was
that the national government would
temporarily abandon the Rhineland
and the Ruhr, economically, to the
French and Belgian armies of occupa
tion, the workers and state employees
of those regions being warned that
henceforth they could not look to Ber
lin for help. The second was to re
pudiate tlie treaty of Versailles and
refuse to comply with any of its pro
visions as long as the French and Bel
gians continue to occupy the Ruhr.
But Stresemann was playing a des- j
perate game in the endeavor to stave
off his own downfall, and at this writ
ing it seems likely he will fall. The
Democrats and Catholics decided to
quit him, and the Socialists already
have done so. Hitherto President
Ebert has firmly supported Strese
mann, but as the week was drawing
to a close it appeared that he, too,
was ready to abandon the chancellor
and place his reliance in General von
Seeckt, whom he had made supreme
military dictator.
The decision to abandon the occu- I
pied regions was made necessary, ac
cording to the chancellor, by the relchs
bank's refusal of paper credits with
which to meet the expense of main
taining the unemployed during the next
two weeks ? expenses which will call
for 300,000,000 gold marks ($75,000,000).
The government, said Stresemajin,
was forced, because of the total break- j
down of Industry and commerce, to
choose between the destruction of all
Germanyi with the possible salvation
of the occupied areas, and abandoning
those regions to their fate temporarily.
' Return to Germany | of the former
crown prince Is complicating matters
more than had been expected. The
allies demanded his immediate deliv
ery for trial as a war criminal, but
the Berlin government replied that if
he was to be tried, he would be tried
by a German court. Frederick Wil
liam went quietly to his Sllesian estate
at Oels, but a French correspondent
In Berlin says he Is about ready to
spring a coup for seizure of the throne
and is being financed by a group of
American, English and Dutch bankers.
The story continues that the ex-prince
has obtained the solldi support of the
reichswehr and will soon march on Ber
lin at the head of a division of Infantry
with the assurance that no other di
visions of the national army will op
pose him. The French also assert
that scores of German factories are)
working night and day making ammu
nition and other war material. It is
believed In Paris that France may
proceed to occupy Frankfort and Ham
burg if Frederick William is not ex
pelled or surrendered to the allies. A
flurry was caused last week by a story
that fhe former kaiser was preparing
to return to Germany, and already
had his passports. This was flatly de
nied. Advices from Rome are to the
effect that the Vatican would like to
see the German monarchy restored In
order to prevent seizure of power by
the communists.
The government of the United
States has informed the allies that it
will not Intervene to keep the Hohen
iollerns from returning tc the throne,
und it is not certain what course
Great Britain will pursue. France
probably is strong enough to do all
that Is necessary without help.
Bavaria's Fascist! are not wholly
subdued by the failure of the Hlttler
coup, but seem unable to do anything
more Just now except create disturb
ances. Hlttler, wounded, is under ar
rest. Ludendorff -^riso was arrested
but w?j Immediately released on
parole.
All hope for an agreement on the
i Hughes reparations committee plan
was abandoned when Washington In
formed the world it could not accei t the
French restrictions. Premier Poincare
thereupon Instructed M. Barthou to
propose to the reparations committee
that It nominate a committee of ex
perts such as the "United States re
jected" to examine Germany's capacity
to pay,' and its resources in foreign
countries.
HUGO STINNES and his plans have
become of intense interest to the
world. The Westphallan industrial
magnate, who has made himself one
of the richest men on earth by taking
advantage of his count's misfor
tunes, is said to have made up his mind
to start a combat with the Standard
Oil company for supremacy in the oil
Industry' on four continents. His
fields are in Argentina, Oklahoma,
Texas, China, Mesopotamia and the
Caucasus. More of his colossal
schemes will be heard later. Not
even Stlnnes himself knows the ex
tent of his vast weklth, yet when he
was asked to contribute something for
the hungry children of Germany he re
plied that he was maintaining a soup
kitchen In Berlin and could do noth
ing more. The kitchen Is supplied
with left-over food from one of
Stlnnes' hotels. The fact that Stlnnes,
Krupp, and the other Multimillionaire
profiteers of Germany could easily
provide all that their "starving" coun
trymen need makes majny Americans
wonder why we should be called on to
contribute to that cause. General
Allen's appeals will fall on many deaf
ears. >
KING GEORGE of Greece, who Is
accused of complicity In the re*
cent revolt which was speedily put
down, has been asked by the party in
power to abdicate and leave the coun
try In order that the people may de
cide unhampered on the regime they
prefer. Most of the Greeks, It Is be
lieved, wish for a republic. Great
Britain, however, Is doing Its best to
keep George on his throne, considering
him a strong tie between Greece and
England.
WILLIAM G. M'APOO and Sena
tor Hiram Johnson have de
clared their candidacy for the presi
dential nomination, the former as a
Democrat and the latter as a Repub
lican. Henry Ford, It Is reliably re
ported, has decided not lo be a candi
date.
Mr. McAdoo's announcement was In
formal and rather by inference, but
Senator Johnson's was formal and at
length. He challenged President Cool
Idge and any other aspirants to go be
fore the voters, especially In the pri
mary states, on the Issue of Ameri
ca's foreign policy. He also declared
war on "reaction" and made an appeal
for a "revitalized Republican party,
the Instrument neither of static reac
tion nor of destructive radicalism."
His statement to the public was Issued
In Chicago.
COL. CHARLES R. FORBES, former
head of the veterans' bureau, ap
peared last week before the senate
committee which has been hearing
grave charges concerning his manage
ment of the bureau, and denied those
charges all and severally. He said
flatly that the witnesses against him
had lied and thai some of them were
in a "conspiracy" to destroy him. He
attacked especially Gen. Charles E.
Sawyer, personal physician to Presi
dent Harding, and said most of what
were termed the deficiencies In the ad
ministration of laws for the benefit of
disabled veterans were due to "politics
and Sawyer." As for the hospital coiv
tracts that have been the subject of
serious accusations, Forbes said he
put the job entirely In the hands of
the ? army and navy engineering de
partments and had followed their
recommendations. This was support
ed by army and navy letters and re
ports. That there were gross faults
in the management of the bureau
seems certain, but judgment as to
those to blame should be. suspended
until the Inquiry Is completed and the
findings of the committee made public.
NO PLAN for the immediate relief
of the American wheat farmer is
forthcoming from the national wheat
council, for Its production committee
says It is confining its consideration
to development of a long-time program
and policy of wheat growing and the
' * .. ? i
: V: L\tl * a&V* rtfcftUlfr MX,
economic measures necessary to carry
out that policy. The committee em
phasizes the necessity of standardiza
tion of production, and says co-opera
tive marketing should be developed by
the farmers as a part of the long-time
program.
? Secretary of Agriculture Wallace, in
an address before the Chicago busi
ness ftien, said the improvement in ag
ricultural conditions during the year
had been remarkable, although the im
provement has lot been sufficient to
put agriculture on a parity with in
dustry, commerce or labor. From hi*
report to the President he cited flg-_
ures showing that the value of eleven
principal crops has increased from $5,
200,000,000 in 1921 to $7,000,000,000
this year. He declared that of relief
measures proposed, price fixing was
hopeless, co-operative marketing would
reduce some 6osts but wouldn't bring
better prices, and buying the surplus
and giving it to needy countries would
help if it could be done practically.
Then he sprung a new plan. '
"The government might well con
sider the setting up of a government
agency which would take the surplus
wheat and handle it in exactly the
same way many manufacturers have
handled their surplus products," he
said, "so that it would not be the gov
ernment carrying the burden, but the
producers. Many who have given the
matter consideration believe that of all
the proposals suggested this one offers
the most hope."
SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY
MELLON stirred up the anUnals
with his tax revision program, and it
is a cinch that his proposals will cut
an Important figure in tlie coming ses
sion of congress. Mr. Mellon recom
mends sweeping reductions in income
taxes that would benefit both the large
and the small tPXRayer and would
mean an annual reduction in revenue
of about $323,000,000. Primarily, he
proposes a 25 per cent reduction in
the tax on earned income, meaning in
come derived from wages, salaries and
professional services, as distinguished
from business or Investment income.
He also recommends big reductions in
surtaxes, having them begin at $10,000
income instead of $6,000 and with the
maximum rake 25 per cent instead of
58 per cent. The secretary says, how
ever, that rjone of his recommenda
tions can be carried out now or for
years to come if the government is re
quired to finance a r^ldiers' bonus. In
deed, if congress insists on passing
a bonus bill means must be found for
providing additional revenue.
President Qoolidge Is believed to* ap
prove of Mr. Mellon's plan, and mem
bers of congress agree that it will be
attractive to small taxpayers ; but they
think there will be some objection be
cause the special reduction will not
apply to earnings of a farmer or a
man running a small business. Thei
big contest will come oves the choice
between tax reduction and a soldiers'
bonusy
GREAT BRITAIN'S imperial con
ference having approved of the
protective tariff plans mentioned a
week ago, Prime Minister Baldwin dis
solved parliament last Friday and
called a general election for December
6. His reason for doing this, it should
be explained is that on assuming pow
er he promised there would be no rad
ical change In the country's fiscal
policy during the life of the present
parliament. His action, however, it
attacked bitterly by his political foes,
and the Conservatives will have a hard
time to obtain a working majority in
the new parliament. Lloyd George,
returned from America, at once ef
fected a reconciliation with Asquith
and thus the two big branches of the
Liberal party are reunited and will
fight the battle for free trade. The
slogan of the Conservative party is
"protection or a capital levy to relieve
unemployment," but the Laborites
bitterly complain ? that Baldwin has
delayed unemployment relief until hs
could use It for campaign purposes.

ORCHARD
GLEANINGS
.
Trees of Various Kinds
f. Need Much Plant Food
Trees of any sort are but large
plants and require food with which to
sustain their life processes. The farm
orchard, whether It bears every year
or not, exerts a continuous drain upon
the soil which does not even enjoy the
respite which comes to the ordinary
field through a rotation system. For
est trees meet such conditions more
successfully than do the trees in an
orchard for the reason that rich
moulds are formed by the disintegra
tion of leaves and other vegetation
from which the trees gather a large
amount of food through their intricate
root systems. Professional orchard
ists appreciate all this and give their
trees the encouragement and assistance
that Is held in barnyard wastes.
Many a farm orchard is denied the
benefit of manuring for the reason that
the wastes are needed for the fields or
because of indifference due to lack of
appreciation of the fact that trees as
well as farm crops can make use of
plant foods. The result is that farm
orchards frequently yield below what
would have been the case had the
ground been given a dressing of
manure.
The best time to apply manure to
this part of the farm acreage is just
after the crop has been gathered. The
waste can be made to go further if it
is not spread closely around the trunks
of the trees but is placed in circular
fashion under the branches as it is
here that the root systems lie.
By distributing orchard manure at
the time indicated, there will be
abundant opportunity for soluble
plant foods to be washed into the soil
before the next growing season and
thp manure itself will have become j
disintegrated before the next crop is
In the trees. Manure distributed in
the spring often constitutes an annoy
ance to those who work in the orchard
later in the season.
Peach Growers Will Be
Wise to Spray for Curl
Peach growers who wish to guard
against leaf curl and a resulting re
duction of the stand of fruit, will be
sure to spray while the trees are still
dormant, warns the New York State
College of Agriculture at Ithaca.
The fruit men at the college explain
that the organisms or spores which
cause the leaf curl remain through the
dormant period among the bud scales.
Infection takes place while the buds
are bursting and early growth is tak
ing place. - -
To prevent leaf curl It is necessary
only to kill those spores by applying
a fungicide before the buds begin to
swell. To obtain perfect control, It
1b probably necessary to hit every
spore, but as one cannot see the
spores, the next best thing is to De
sure to hit every bud.
Commercial lime-sulphur solution di
luted 1-20 is sufficiently strong for the
purpose. If scale is also to be com
bated, It will be necessary to use the
lime-sulphur solution at scale strength,
that Is, from 1-8 to 1-12.
Trees 2 Years Old Are
Superior for Planting
Toung trees to be set out next spring
should be two years old and about
three-fourths of an Inch In diameter
near the ground. . In case there are no
two-year trees handy, get a one-year
whip. Three-year-old trees- are apt to
suffer shocks from transplanting. Be
sure that the roots are free from dis
ease, and do not take substitutes.
Cancel the order vtfen substitutes are
offered and ship- them back. It is not
a good plan to cancel orders, but when
a firm sends makeshift varieties In
place of . the ones ordered the buyer
has a right to complain ? If he knows
the difference, which many do not.
JDlfc a trench for the young trees
upon their arrival. Put the roots , of
the tree* In fhlfc trench and cover well
with esrth, well packed so that the
roots get contact with the soil. Do not
pack tight enough to break the roots
down. Lay the trees In at an angle
of about 45 degrees
Several Excellent and
Potent Dormant Sprays
Many excellent and efficient dormant
sprays have been perfected of late
years. Some of these commercial
preparations and miscible oils are In
every way admirable. They mix read
ily with water and may be applied
with perfect safety. However, llme
sulphur Is still used far more largely
than any other dormant spray. Many
thousands of orchardlsts make their
own lime-sulphur spray, while others
buy the' commercial mixtures. Some
authorities now contend that lime*
sulphur to one of the most Inefficient
and unscientific of dormant sprays,
but as it does the business and or
chardlsts are familiar with It, its use
increases yearly.; ,
Dropping Cherries.
Many growers complain that cher
ries seem to bloom and set well but
the fruit when the else of peas drops
badly. This la generally an Indication
of poor pollination. Some of our best
commercial varieties are sterile and
need other varieties planted* with them. >
