to make his patch bear contlruonsly

Mr. Bryant's patch Is about bHlf an
Here a plat sixty feet wide and S''0 feet
Jong1 within the corporate limits of the
town. On July 2.'t, eighty-five crates had
teen sold at 12'i cents a quart, making
to sum of over S'-"0. all bousl.t by the
local groceries and restaurants.

Tart of the Bryant patch is three years
ffhe patch was tncreaaed with 3 000 new
jplants this spring. The plants ore set
eighteen Inches apart in rows four feet

tmttl the runners get too big, and then
the patch is kept clean by pulling the
eeds by hand.
Strawberries and Onions.
The biggest strawberry undertaking In
fhe community la being handled by J.
L Overman. About a year ago he '
ought considerable cheap property In
he east part of town, and had the
round plowed In the fall. This eprlng
he ground was harrowed and then It
Fras rolled until It was smooth as a
loor. He had the roller made here In
fhe town. It is a tin can two feet long

Mr. Overman set out C.KOO plants, and
ver since the sea. cpened has kept
1 man busy every day that work can be
(one in the patch. At the time of set-
png, lour men were empioyea uunv. ine
istch la about two acies thirty-eight
jfovM, 860 feet long. The plants are
llghteen Inches apart n rows five feet
ipart.
i Mr. Overman is "killing two birds with
ne stone," or as It were, making "two
blades of grass grow," where before
there was none. Part of his patch was
tne of the most unkempt places tn Stella,
ind where weeds and slough grass
thrived, now are growing fine rows of
inlons alongside of the strawberries.
Ilxteen bushels of on'on sets were put
mt, In rows parallel with the strawberry
...
tows. Three rows or onions are in the
live feet between the strawberry rows.
rhe row. of onion are a foot apart, and i
inch row of onions Is a foot and
alf from the strawberry row.
Profits Mill lie l.arice
' In normal seasons a bushel of sets will
produce twenty bushels of onions, and
tocordlngly, Mr. Oveinmn should have
1400 from his onions, as onions never sell
in the local market at less than tl a
Bushel, and generally reiall at 5 cents a
pound. A small part ot the patch In
lze about a town lot was planted with
inion seed. The harvest of the onions
Ai August will get them out or the way
tn ample time ftr the runners to cover
4 the ground. The onion seta were put out
--bout April S and a week luter woik was
Wgun to set the strawberry ',j':its.
. Mr. Overman, who Is postmaster, has
fcecome so deft handling Uncle Sam's
parcels and reading young women's post
cards from their "best fellows," that ho
tan set two strawberry plants a minute,
snd hla crew soon became experts in
swiftness. No soon were the plants set,
than weed killing began and it will be
tontinued all summer long until no)
. weed U left.
Quart In Knch Plant.
Henry Kreld. the Shenandoah, la,,
peedman, and an authority on strawberry
'culture, estimates that the plant set
cine season w ill produce a quart the next.
!y this he means the parent plant and
Its runners. AcorJlngly If next season
Is normal, Mr. Overman would have 6.MM
quarts of berries, which at 10 tents a
tjuart would be fu'O from two acres. Of
course some of the parent plants did not
live, but there will be enough runners to
practically cover the entire ground. The I
first berries on the market in all prob-1
ability will sell at from l:"s cents to j.-,
(tents a quart.
This has been a splendid season ln
many respects for strawberries and un-
favorable In other ways. Plenty of rain
made new plants grow well, unless they
were waahed out or washed over with
dirt; plenty of rain prolonged the sea
son, and made the berries grow large,
but ln some pat lies occasionally It was
too wet for picking and sometimes the
berries were covered within ud.

tied down at the "summer White'
House'' today for a brief vacation
to prepare himself for the arduous,
work he Is expecting within the next)
few months In connection w ith the
European and Mexican situations. I
The president brought few official docu-l
ments with him and officials at the White j
House had orders to forward him only
the most pressing businesa, but neverthe-l
less he plans to give much thought in tho j
quiet seclusion of the Cornish hills to i
the next step in the Mexican question,
to the submarine with Germany and to i
the discussion with Great Uritain over
commerce.
Most f Uork on Lansing.
Secretary l4tnslng will do most of the
actual work on the note to Great Krltaln
now being prepared, but tho president
has already gone over with him the broad
questions of policy Involved, and will see
the note before It Is officially forwarded
to London. Ho read with deep Interest
today unofficial forecasts from IJerllii
that there was a possibility that Ger
many's submarines warfare would ba
l somewhat modified, but refused to com
I ment.
Tho president arrived here this after
( noon after a trip through Connecticut,
Massachusetts and Vermont marked by
frequent ovations from crowds which
gathered at every station. Ho refused to
make any speeches, but smiled broadly
I at laudatory comment from several hun
dred men, women and children with whom
ho shook hands. The crowds were much
larger and more enthusiastic, than have
ver gretted the president en route here
beforo and many told him they approved
his course In the foreign situation.
Wrltlnsj lireat Letters.
"Ton have been writing great letters
to those foreign governments." said one
working women as she clanped the presi
dent's hand, lie thanked her.
"Kxcuse the dirt," apologized a factory
employe extending a grimy hand to the
president. "I don't mind that." tho presl-
dpnt replied as he shook hands.
You've been working too hard and I
hope you have a good vacation," was the
gmetlng of another woman. "I hope so,
too," answered Mr. Wilson.
As the president stood talking to the
crovd at one stop a man remarked that
he loiked heavier than ho did when here
last year. The president said he welgi.ed
about the same.
"Your face looks fuller," said the man.
"I guess I have more check," replied
the president, amid laughter.
Cheered Again and Again.
Virtually the entire population of
Windsor, Vt, and this village were at
the station to greet the president as he
stepped from his prlvto car- with Miss
Margaret Wilson and Ir. Cary T. Gray
son, his naval aide and physician, Tbey
cheered him again and again ani for a
few minutes he was completely hemmed
In by people who want?d to welcome him
back to the summer capital. Miss Helen
Woodrow Bones, his courln, was with the
party.
The president s Joy was evident In the
afternoon, when his daughter Mrs. Fran
cis H. Sayre, with her husband an 1 baby
hoy. arrived here for a visit. Francis
Woodrow Sayre. the president's only
grandson, who he saw christened a few
weeks ago at Willlumslon, Mass., cooed
with delight and cuddled In hla God
fathers arms.
Harlakcntlen House, the property of
Winston Churchill, the novelist, which Is
occupied by the president and his family
has been completely renovated alnre their
last visit here. Mr. Wilson spent al
most the entire afternoon and evening
looking over the estate and attending
to some correspondence, but took a short
automobile title beforo dinner.
How He Will speud Time.
He plans to devote nearly all his time
while here to golfing and autnmoblltng,
and reading and resting. He wilt go
golfing each morning twenty miles away
at Hanover, N. 11., and In the afternoons
he will motor through the picturesque
Connecticut valley.
Tho president learned today of the
marriage on the day he left Washington
of John Slye, one of his secret servloe
men and Miss Johanna Ilenrlck of Wash
ington. The couple are spending their
honeymoon here. As Slye finished his
tour of duty of helping guard the presi
dent today, he waa met by bis bride.

Germany Dof cuds Its
Use of Gas in War;
Says Allies Started i
H':i;UN. June M Vla lxm-lon ) A
semi-official statement has been Issued
here explaining and defending the Ger
man nte vi f nspbv xliitlng g.ises.
The first point made Is that the Itritlsh
and French employed such gases before
thf Germans, and In addition to the
earlier statements of the German of
ficial war rt ports, concerning such al
lotted use, the statement now cites the
text of a coinmunlf stlon said to have
been Issued by the French ministry of
war describing two sorts of projectiles
ileslgmtl to produce a stifling gas, and
the niiiile of their usage. This com
munication Is said to have been dated
lVnruary !l. N-foro 1h Germans un
placed gas tn their attack upon pres.
The German statement refers to alleged
reports published In American newspatrs
that the l.usltanln carried ;M,(H0 pounds
of tetm-chlorltle of tin consigned to tho
French government and Intended for the
production of asphyxiating gases. Speak
ing of alleged efforts to arouse American
sympathies against Utrmaiiy for Its use
of gas, the statement says the proviso
against the use of gas In The llagua
convention, sdopttd apalnst the votes of
the American delegates, w iia added to tho
protocol that It had mt been proven
that shells with esphyxlating gasos were
an Inhumane or unnecessary cruel method
of war. The Gernvui statement finally
compares the use of gas with Iho In
undation of fighting an as. Instancing the
flooding of thc rcUoii of Nieuport by the
Pelglans some time ago. Slid argues that
both methods are equally huniann and
that an cnemv nu rely needs to withdraw
to escape their effects.

the State depart ment has been i.nable to
