DERIDES HIGH TARIFF

European War Stops Imports, Indicating Futility of Bas

ing Prosperity Slogan on-

That Basis.

The Rushville Jacksoulan prints the following interview - with Finly - II. Gray, Sixth district -congressman: "The present session of congress waa the longest grind on record, with more important and far-reaching matters before it, together with the dangerous conditions threatening, our country from the European war to hinder the administration's program." Democracy Ready. Commenting on the primary law in this state, Mr. Gray said it couldn't be stopped, as movements of such kind were in the air. "Democracy, when it goes out in 116 to battle against Its ancient enemy, will not be on the defensive," said Mr. Gray. "We will ask our opponents what program they have to offer the country; will they repeal the currency law, the. election -senators' By direct vote of the people, ore re-establish the Payne-Aldrlch tariff law? "During the campaign of 1912, we hear that the best policy this, nation could pursue would be to build a tariff wall so high around this republic that no foreign goods could enter and competed with American made goods. Imports Cease. "We have that very thing now. Not a nation In Europe is in a position to manufacture articles, and our import trade is practically nothing. Yet our friends in the other camp are not satisfied. "It may be," so Mr. Gray intimated, "that If conditions, in Europe continue as they have been for nine months, that a change in our method of raising revenue will be necessary, but it will lot be due to a failure of the tariff-.'or-revenue theory, -but because nothing is imported."

Albert E. Smith succeeded' William Moffett, now a Pennsylvania pensioner. as tickel receiver for ' the Richmond division qf the Pennsylvania lines today. Mr. Moffett closed his thirtysixth; year as ticket receiver-and his fifty-first yeth as an employe, "of the

Pennsylvania company- some time ago,

but continued to work until the daj of his pensioning, April 1. Mr. "Moffett ' said yesterday before

closing his office for the last time,

that he had never expected to keep

the position he worked at for thirty-

six years. "My cousin married the superintendent of the southwest system," Mr. Moffett Baid. "I got my position througn her. I was surprised when I was appointed, and 1 did not think I would keep the position more than six weeks, any more than flying. "For the .last year I have been keeping strictly to business! fhave made trips reguhirty. to h& i office" every' flay tb keep 'my "mind" occupied. It will be hard to dd nothing aijter having seryfid in this capacity1 for so long." Mr. Moffett's ofice is permanently closed as ticket- receivers' office. The room is located on' the second floor of "the depot,' and the superintendent expects to have it remodeled and add the -space to another office. The new office is built in a corner of the baggage room, for the convenience of conductors. No change will be made in the assistants. -The two young men who have been employed under Mr. Moffett will continue to handle part of the shifts under Mr. Smith. A trip to California, planned by Mr. and Mrs. Mofett to start after Mr. Moffett's retirement, has been temporarily postponed. Mr. and Mrs. Moffett were presented with perpetual passes which can be used on any railroad, when the announcement of his retirement came.

In 1850 there were 2.528 newspapers published in this country. Now there are more than 23,000.

Annual Plants For Newly Graded Lots

DEFECTIVE CHIMNEY CAUSES HEAVY LOSS TO YANKY RESIDENCE

HAGERSTOWN, Ind April 1. The

beautiful home of Aldona Yanky, near Mlllville, -was totally destroyed by fire Tuesday1. - A defective flue was., tb cads.' The loa amounts to sey era) thousand dollars, and is partly covered by Insurance of $i,700 A&&:

Daniel Beard of Minneapolis will be

(This is the fourth and last article in the spring garden, series.) ..... A few well-chosen annual plants placed on newly graded, grounds will do much to take the plarce of trees and shrubs until the latter may have time to grow, according to the United States Department of Agriculture's

specialist. It is often a question in aj

new community wnere slow-growing vegetation has not had an opportunity, as to what may be done to make grounds seem less bare. A lawn-can-be made in a few wekes and its appearance may be greatly increased by the addition of a few well-chosen annuals. The specialist suggests as particularly suited for this purpose the following plants, which may be grown In most parts of the United States.. TALL FOLIAGE PLANTS Castor bean, caladium, iranna. TALL FLOWERING PLANTS-Gos-mos. , scarlet sage, sunflowers. BOKDER PUANTJl AlternantheraT alyssum, ageratum, coleus. MEDIUM-TALL AP&tt A-L FLOWERING PLANTS Geranium, California poppy (eschscholtzia), zinnia, mar

igold, aster, petunia, cockscomb, lark-1 spur, nasturtium. j CLIMBING ANNUALS Cobaea-J scandens, . moonflowers, Japanese! morning glory. " I

Varieties in color and contrast, in height and general effect should be studied in placing the plants. The general appearance of plants on the home grounds or irt the garden is more or less dependent upon the condition of near-by lawns. Lawns are the ' foundation of all decorative planting. A good, well-kept lawn contributes more to the beauty of the grounds than any other single factor. For this reason special atten-" tion should be given to the grading, cultivation and enriching of the area to be devoted to the" lawn. After good preparation come good seed and care. The variety of soils which will be encountered and the special treatments which they need render it possible to make only the broadest generalizations here. ' For localities north of St. Louis, Mo., and Richmond, Va., lawns can be formed chiefly of bluegrass, red top and white clover. South of this point Bermuda grass and St. KAugustirte ' grass will have to be relied upon chiefly, although it Is said that in some places alfalfa has been employed with good results. ' The United States Department of Agriculture has a bulletin on "Lawn Soils and Lawns" (No. 494), and a bulletin' oh "Beautifying the Home Grounds" (No. 185). which will be sent to applicants as long as the supply lasts.
