In New York, Dr. Carlos de la Torre, former professor at the University of Havana, has been elected president of a new Cuban revolutionary junta, composed of prominent exiles, among whom are Dr. Miguel M. Gomez, former Mayor of Havana; Colonel Mendez Penate, leader of the Nationalist Party; General Mario G. Menocal, former President of Cuba and leader of the last revolution against the Machado government. During the last few weeks, a reign of terror has existed in the island. Shootings and bombings are so common as to no longer be marveled at. The secret police of President Machado are accused by the revolutionaries of using American gangster methods in getting rid of their enemies. During the week before Easter no less than 56 deaths by violence are reported to have occurred in Havana. It is charged that the government is using the dreaded "ley de fuga” (law of flight) to murder political opponents. But the Cuban administration denies everything—even tu the existence of a revolutionary movement.

quite simple. First you determine the amount of complete plant food r. xiuired by the tree which you are going to feed. To do this meaiiure the diameter of ti’ic tree at a point about four feet from the ground. To each i ch of diatn ter allow three pounds of complete plant food In as much a., the main feeding roots of a tree extend out In a circle equivalent to the circl made by the drip of the brain lies, this is the proper place to apply th plant food Make a series of holes, two'inches in diamet r ainl alxxut eighteen inches deep under the drip of the brai'iches in a zizz g fashion. The holes can be made l>ciit with a ground auger hut a crowbar or other pointed device can be satisfactorily used. Fill the holes half full of the complete plant food and complete filling with soil. That is all there is to tree feeding—tviilly it is easier to do than it is to tell about. •

(quality vegetables than can pos-! sibly be gathered from the refrig-1 1 orator or from the cold storage plant of the grocery. HomeI grown vegetables do not suffer ! as do market supplies from wilt' from being left in the sun and i ! they are not passed through hands of w.hose cleanliness and jsanitary I [ condition there is grave suspicion. Home-grown vegetables are I cleanest, of best quality, and a | real economy. Clean spinach for the baby is the incentive for many a garden start. The wilted and sand-laden greens often on sale al the greet, I grocers catnot compare with the | fresh, crisp leaves that may be ’ gathered in the back-yard patch i from a nickel package of seed 1 ! plus a little healthy exercise in ; the way of spading up space to ! plant it. But proper diet for the baby is no more important than proper diet for the adult and although it is usual to treat a baby with more consideration than a grownup when it comes to food, there is no good reason for doing so from a strictly hygienic standpoint. Start a vegetable garden this year as a measure of health and economy. If it is no more than a spinach patch it is that much clear gain. Tomatoes may follow' the spinach and two staples of the menu are provided for the season. Brilliant Bioom From Poor Soil Two brilliant Annuals little grown ' | but deserving of wide popularity i , in the garden are the clarkias and I godetias, 'both members of the even-, png phnrose family snd having thei ; satiny texture to their bloom that' I < liaracterize so many of the plants I •of this tribe. They prefer a poor I soil and are most brilliant on skiin ' i py fare and was gross and too lazy I to give their best bloom if fed well. I For a patch of poor, dry soil i try one or both of these annuals. | Tbs clarkias hive been taken up' I lo the greenhouse men and now i | are popular for winter cut rowers, I but they are yist as handsome in ' the garden and very easily grown. [The double varieties are bcsi for cutting ranging from white through light and deep pink to orange sear-! let. 'lh " godetias have large bloom, of more triiliaul coloring, ol'en' splashes of color on light grounds to make them more striking in ap I peaaance. New gladiolus-flowered l lorms are offered which will prove ! line cutting material.

The godetias com? in both double and single forms.
