garrison as announced at the Coblenz
headquarters follows:

eral Henry T. Allen and staff; head

P headquarters and military police com
pany; the Eighth infantry regiment;

HOUSING PROBLEM
SERIOUS IN ENGLAND
LONDON, Aug. 1 (by mail).—
Scarcity of housing accommodations
throughout England is causing much
inconvenience and not a little suffer
ing.
One man with a wife and ten chil
dren was compelled to give up his
house at the expiration of the lease
and, having nowhere to go, was given
accommodations in the Essex work
house until he could find another
home.
The government building program,
which contemplates the construction
of half a million houses, is being de
layed, it is alleged, by endless rolls
of official tape.
FISH QUOTATIONS
SEATTLE, Sept. 15 (by Associated
Press).—Prices for fish at noon today
were as follows; Halibut, 15c, sable
fish, 5c; ling and red cod, 4c.

FREAK IS PRODUCED
BY HORTICULTURIST
FINDLAY, Ohio, Aug. 1 (by mail).!
—An apple tree bearing thirty-two |
kinds of apples and six of pears has
been produced by Henry Flater, of
this city, after years of experiment
ing. *
The tree, declared by experts to be
one of the most exceptional horticul
tural wonders ever produced, was the
last of the famous Vance orchard.
When Flater went to work on it the
trunk was decayed in a number of
places. Limbs were dead and farm
ers declared it never would yield
again.
Filling the holes with cement and
bracing the broken limbs with chains,
Flater grafted on a number of kinds
of apples. Year after year he added
new grafts until this summer the tree
is giving more than three dozen kinds
of fruit.
The tree is more than seventy-five
years old and is bearing apples from
early summer until late fall.
USE OF ARMY HUT
, TO RELIEVE CROWDING
LONDON, July 30 (by mail).—A
modern bungalow made out of an
army hut is on view here in the Horse
Guards avenue, and judging from the
huge crowds which are visiting it,
there is no doubt that this way of
living will be followed by many who
experience difficulty in obtaining
housing accommodation.
The cost of conversion is about
$1,500, making a total cost for the
bungalow of $2,000.

You have observed what hap
g I pens to a flag that flaps and
% | whips in the breeze. In time it
g | becomes shredded and tattered.
g | Your washing, when you dry
g I it on the line, is subjected to this
g | same wearing action. Of course,
g | the effects are not so severe arid
g 1 not so apparent to the eye as
g | those suffered by the flag but
g 1 they are there nevertheless.
g I
g | There is none of this wear when
g | we dry for you. We simply
g | place your clothes in a magic
g 1 basket. In 15 minutes, without
g | sc much as a thread being dis
g | turbed, they are practically dry.
g i i
A few minutes more in warm,
pure air and they are com- | !§
pietely dry.
No .wringing, no flapping, no
soot—the result is longer life for 1
your clothes; economy of expen- § £
diture and economy of labor. i S
Doesn’t this appeal to you as 1 %
the proper way to have your
family washing dried ? |
This, however, is but one of the
conserving details or our im
proved laundering methods.
A trial will be convincing.
Telephone and wre will have
our driver call for your family
bundle. |
