T. R. ABANDONS HIS TRIP.
Will Not Visit Western States Before
Convention as Planned.
Oyster Bay. N. Y., July lS.-Colouel
ltoosevelt Is not going to make his
projected western tour before tho
Chicago convention. It has been the
colonel's plan to visit Iowa, Michi
gan and Kansas to do a little molding
of public opinion before the delegates
from those states to the progressive
convention were selected. Tho date
for his departure on this preconven
tlon trip had not been definitely sot,
but It was practically settled that ho
would leave Oyster Bay some time
between Monday and Friday of next
week.
Now all this has been changed. Sen
ator Dixon, George W. Perkins and O.
K. Davis motored down to Oyster Bay
and dined with the colonel at Saga
more Hill. Colonel ltoosevelt had an
nounced beforehand tliat the final de
cision about the trip to tho three states
of the middle west would be reached
at this conference.
When the conference was over Mr.
Davis, speaking for Colonel ltoose
velt, announced that the trip had been
given up because of the press of work
for the colonel at his headquarters
here In New York. Mr. Davis ex
plained there were so many questions
coming up continually at the Roose
velt headquarters In New York ques
tions that required Mr. Iloosevelt'B at
tention and which only tho colonel
could decide that It was Impossible
for him to get away long enough to
make the trip he had planned.
Mr. ltoosevelt will remain at Saga
more Hill until he goes to the conven
tion, which Is to open In Chicago on
Aug. 5. He is now working on the
statement of his position on the vari
ous questions of Interest at the present
time, and It Is expected that this state
ment will be ready for publication
very soon.

WANTS TO BUILD BIGGEST
POSSIBLE WARSHIP NOW.
Tillman Would Name It tht Terror and
Have It Act as World's Peacemaker.
One record breaking warship, to be
named the Terror and outclassing any
fighting machine ever built or that
can bo constructed, capable of main
taining the world's pence, Bhould Imj
developed and added to tho American
nnvy. Then tho Increase of the navy
should cease and the enormous sum
now yearly appropriated for that pur
pose devoted to the development of
the nation.
This Is the now program proposed
by Scnntor Tillman. He desires to
have tho Terror constructed nnd to
that end wlf. "all for such olllclal In
formation as would Indicate Its size
and armament.
Senator Tillman will offer a resolution
calling on the committee on naval nf
fairs to report to tho senate the maxi
mum size of ships, tho mnxlmum
nrnior, maximum gun, maximum
speed, maximum draft permitting, en
try Into tho world's first class harbors
and passage through the Panama ca
nal that n fighting ship can possess In
order to make the very lost battleship
or cruiser that the world has ever soon
or will ever see.
The resolution will sny that the pur
pose Is "to have this country own the
greatest marine engine of war ever
constructed or ever to bo constructed
under known conditions. ' The reso
lution will also say, "Let such vessel
bo named the Terror and become the
peacemaker of the world."

Should the Young Orchard Be Cul
tlvnted XoW.
A prominent I'nuudelphla attor
ney who has n large orchard In
south-eastern Pennsylvania wrote to
State Zoologist Surface saying: "In
the press of work, tho weeds got
ahead of my farmer among my peach
trees. Th.y are not bearing a single
peach this year. What I want to
know Is whether this dry weather
will prevent or check the formation
of fruit buds for next year's crop, or
had I bettor cultivate tho trees and
then sow a cover crop?"
The reply was as follows:
"Concerning the treatment of your
orchard, I must say that what It
needs must he In accord with the
growth It has made. If there Is a
satisfactory amount ot growth there
you need not do much to stimulate
further growth this year, and I
would rather have the wood become
harder before fall than havo It grow
late Into the fall. If the ground Is
quite dry and the weeds aro taking
the moisture from the ground. I
would prepare to mow them, and let
them remain upon tho soil. This
should be done soon. It would be
still better to cut up tho soil with a
disc harrow and sow crimson clover
seed, and then go over It with a
smoothing harrow. This Is really the
nest treatment that I can recom
mend for an orchard at this time of
year. You can sow crimson clover
seed at any time before the last of
July. Sow fifteen to twenty pounds
of seed per acre. This will remain
as a cover crop during the winter,
and you can turn It down In the
spring and get nitrogen and organic
matter in the cheapest way possi
ble." PLANS FOR BALLOON RACES.

thereby destroying the foundation
of the disease, and giving the patient
strength by building up tho consti
tution and assisting nature In doing
Its work. The proprietors have so
much faith in Its curative powers
that they offer One Hundred Dollars
for any case that It fails to cure.
