FEARED PLAGUE SPREADING OVER CHINA: 500 DIE Dreaded Asiatic Cholera Is Sweeping Through Orient, U. S. Learns. BY JOSEPH H. BAIRD United Freu Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, July 19.—More than 500 Chinese in three Chinese cities have fallen victim to a fresh outbreak of the dreaded Asiatic cholera, official reports to .Washington revealed today. What toll the plague has taken in the thousands of Isolated villages already long scourged by famine, flood and bandits was not known. The reports revealed, however, that the cholera has become epidemic. In the Shanghai international settlement twenty-nine foreigners have died. In Nanking and Tientsin, however, the foreign quarters so far have been immune. Frequent Summer Visitor Diplomats who have served in the far east pointed out that cholera is a frequent summer visitor to the Orient and that the natives have a high resistance to it. Foreigners carefully protect themselves by modern sanitary measures. Yet the reports show a rather high death rate. Briefly summarized, they are: Shanghai Cholera increasing. Within the international settlement and greater Shanghai there had been, on July 16, 1,337 cases, resulting in eighty-two deaths. In the one week between July 2 and 9 there were 317 new cases and twen-ty-one deaths. Tientsin—An official survey placed the number of native deaths before June 23 at 350. Foreigners unaffected. Nanking—Before July 1 there were 329 cases and seventy-seven deaths. The national health administration disinfected 4,756 wells. Often Spreads to Europe Cholera, first identified in the sixteenth century, has many times swept over Asia and Europe, leaving a country-side scattered with crosses. Summer and autumn are the season in which it spreads, usually being carried out of India by merchant ships. Agonizing death may come to the victim within forty-eight hours after he is stricken. One of the most terrible cholera epidemics in history was that of 1830. Starting in the far east, it spread over Europe and finally to America, leaving thousands of dead. Other epidemics smote Europe in 1866, 1869, 1883, and 1887. The last great cholera epidemic was that which continued with brief respites in India from 1910 to 1925. Scientists estimated that fully I, persons died in India in 1918 and 1919 alone. CITIZENS CO. SHOWS NEW STUDEBAKER LINE Celebration Atmosphere Marks Introduction of Latest Cars.

URGE 3-MILE ROAD LAW ‘MORATORIUM’

House Committee Votes for 8-Year Suspension of Enforcement. . Suspension for eight years of enforcement of the county unit and three-mile road tax laws, estimated to save thousands of dollars annually for Indiana taxpayers, has been recommended to representatives by the house roads committee. Under provisions of two bills affecting the units, county unit work now underway shall continue, but no bonds would be issued for additional construction contracts. The measure would eliminate a tax ranging from 2 to 5 cents in various counties. Its reinforcement at expiration of the eight years is left for decision of future legislatures. The committee also recommended for passage the Combs bill which would abloish the office of county road superintendent, transferring the duties to the county surveyor. Another measure which would establish a board of county road commissioners with jurisdiction of county and township roads, was postponed for further hearing, although its defeat was indicated. Decision was postponed pending a public hearing on two bills which would assess a road tax on commercial trucks on a basis of ton mileage. The committee also deferred for further hearing a bill making present automobile drivers’ license permanent until otherwise ordered by the legislature.

GERMAN CIVIL WAR IS FANNED TO NEW FURY Scores Die as Nazis Clash With Communists; Ban Outdoor Meetings. BY H. A. PETERS United Press Staff Correspondent BERLIN, July 19.—Bloody clashes between Communists and Fascists today sent the death list for political warfare soaring to 100 or more in the month since the ban on uniformed political organizations was lifted. The latest clashes resulted, despite drastic government decrees banning outdoor assemblies, and government threats of the death penalty for all persons carrying unlicensed firearms or possesssing explosives illegally. The government decrees ivere less than twelve hours old when members of the Republican “Iron Front Hatchets ’ attacked a Nazi parade at Breslau, killing one Nazi and wounding four others. Seventeen Are Killed The attack was similar to the fighting Sunday at Altona, where seventeen persons were killed and scores were wounded. The Altona attack roused the government to efforts to quell the prolonged political disturbances. Reports of fighting, however, reached Berlin throughout Monday night and today. Clashes occurred in the Rhineland, and near many important cities, including Hanover Hamburg and Dresden. The Socialist newspaper Vorwerts announced that ninety-nine persons had been killed and 1.125 wounded during the month Fascists and others were permitted to wear uniforms, compared with only sixtytwo killed during the eighteen months preceding. These figures did not tally with other estimates, w’hich placed the dead and injured much higher. Twenty persons were known to have been killed in fighting Sunday and Monday. Workers Are Slain Two workers were shot down in the streets and a dozen were wounded in one of the latest outbreaks, near Frankfort -on - Main, when Communists attacked a Nazi parade. A policeman was, stabbed and many Nazis and Communists were wounded in knife and stone battles in the old section of Essen.

PLAN AUTUMN PLANTING

Ptit in Roses and Perennials in Fall

Bu SPA. Sere ice Although fail is a couple of; months away,, it’s not too early to start planning for fall planting—and resulting spring blooms. Fall is considered by many to be the ideal planting time. The hot summer sun has gone and does not dry up the plants and soil so fast. Water remains in the soil longer and roots of fall-planted seeds and bulbs- have a better chance to develop. Nature does most of her sowing of seeds in the fall of the year, Seed pods of flowers, vegetables and trees break open and scatter the seeds about. Hence the fall planter is only following nature's scheme. In the south and far west, where the ground seldom is frozen, it is always the practice to do the major portion of planting in the fall. But in the north winter and late fall finds the ground frozen hard and the switch has been to spring planting, with resulting later blooming seasons. nun THE advantages of planting in the fall are several. The ground has had a chance to become thoroughly warm during summer months, a condition rare in spring, just after the snow and ice of winter. Fall rains have given the ground a good supply of moisture, making conditions ideal for planting; during late fall, the gardener, pressed by vacations, fishing, swimming and other sports during the summer and spring, has more time for planting, and plants moved and reset in the fall have a better chance of becoming established than those moved in the spring. Before any fall planting is done, a detailed plan of the spring garden of the coming year should be in mind. If any changes are planned, they should be made on paper and the fall garden planted and transplanted in’accordance with the changed plans. > After the plans are made, then should thought be given to the flowers and bushes to plant. u # tt Roses do better when planted in the fall, as do other shrubs. When the small bushes are planted it is well to cover, them with a mound of earth and, when this is frozen completely cover the mound with a layer of strawy manure to protest against alternate thawing and freezing and the resulting damage to roots. If the early fall is plentifully supplied with rain, August and September are the ideal months for planting evergreens. This is especially true of the broad-leaved evergreens, such as rhododendrons, boxwood and alders. Os course, spring-flowering bulbs should be planted in the fall. This planting can be done any time from early August until the ground has frozen. For protection, cover the bulbs

Fall gardening activities are portrayed in the sketch above,

Irises and peonies are in this class, and should be in the ground any tiitfe from August to October. All perennials should have much protection against winter's alternate thaws and freezes. Narcissus bulbs should be planted soon after the middle of September, to give the roots as much growth as possible before freezing weather sets in. The more growth the roots have in the fall, the earlier the bulbs will bloom in the spring. Fall is the time to start that failing lawn out on the road to success.
