ROSE VALLEY NURSERIES _Box 19, LYONS, N. Y. TREES, DIARY TELLS Spent Much Time Planting at ' Mt Vemon—lnfluegced City’s Beauty. ) BY KATE WEBB PHILLIPS. Emphasis placed by President Hoover iupon the engineering ability of George Washington, in the first volume of the writings of the “Father of His Coun- {try,” issued by the Bicentennial Com- | mission, causes examination of other |sides to his character and mind, of {which his love for nature is an out- istanding one. Sponsored by the American Tree As- sociation and the Bicentennial Commis- sion, Washington’s gardening and land- scaping tastes are being made known more extensively, with the women's clubs of the Nation taking an active interest in the task of planting 10,000,- 000 memorial trees by the opening of the Bicentennial celebration February 22, 1932. Trees were especially loved by Wash- ington, and the National Capital>un- doubtedly owes its profusion and va- riety of “trees largely to his influence. At Mount Vernon he followed a policy of planting trees from the outset of his occupancy of the estate. Diary Gives Information. In his diary he tells of the steps he took toward enhancing its beauty with trees. He nates trips to the woods with his favorite dogs—Music, True Love, Sweet Lips, Mopsy and Rover—at his trees suitable for transplanting at the proper season. He writes that on a cer- tain day In March he planted between 17,000 and 18,000 seed of the honey locust. He marks the days when he sows holly berries and plants hemlock, when he clears the undergrowth from a clump of pines and how he moved the lilac bushes to the north entrance of the garden. He designed and planted the great parterres of boxwood, which are the glory of the garden. He laid out the big deer park along the banks of the river, planted clumps of csdars on the hillside, placed a double row of shade trees along the elliptical driveway at the rear of the house, terminating their design with two mounds of earth, on: on each side, with weeping willows, leaving the charming vista of distant hills unbroken. Trees His Special Care. The trees were his esp-cial care, and his constant aim was to increase their number and improve the varieties. Forest trees, evergreens, flowering shrubs and fruit trees he embedded in that rich soil, and today are seen the oak, elm, beech, holly, cedar, ash, gum, pine, larch, linden, mulberry, poplar, sassafras, aspen, locust, fringe, red bud, magnolia, chestnut, pecan and buckeye trees standing just as he planned; for, thanks to the careful preservation cf the original plans in his own hand- writing, the Mount Vernon Ladies’' As- sociation, with th: co-operation of Prof. Sargent of the Arnold Arboretum, has been able to restore them to the gran- deur of their owner’s day, after a period of comparative neglect. The trees which had died or blown down were replaced by younger plants grown from seed or cuttings of the original stock. Two hundred of them stand near the mansion. Friends at home and abroad added to Washington’s collection. Light Horse Harry Lee brought him some of th horse chestnuts; others he transplanted from Wakefield, his birthplace. Lafayette Planted Tree. Gen. Lafayette planted the Ken- tucky coffee tree which stands near the garden entrance. From his friend Thomas Jefferson came the scedling pecans which he placéd close to the house, the topmost branches now rising high above its roof. Possibly the handsomest of all the more than 50 surviving trees of Wash- ington’s own planting gre the three yel- low poplars. the tallest reaching the height of 120 feet. ‘To botanists none is more interesting than the buckeye tree, several being grown from the nuts he brought back from the battlefields of the Mononga- hela. The species naturally have yellow blossoms, but those of the Mount Ver- non trees are pink, red and flesh-col- ored. In vain-they have searched the Appalachian forests for their dupli- cates. Historians have linked the name of Washington with trees, commencing with the hour of his birth. At the fam- ily home, at Wakefield, in Westmore- land County, Va., is a clump of fig trees which, we are told, stood beneath the window of the room in which he was born. Famous “Council Tree.” ‘Washington crossed the Delaware just eight miles below the little Pennsyl- vania town of New Hope, on the out- skirts of which stood a huge chestnut tree, under which he is said to have first discussed and later definitely set- tled the plan of surprise attack which led to the glorious success of the battle of Trenton. So this tree became known as “the council tree” and as such was revered for more than a century, until the time of its sacrifice on November 28, 1893, to make way for modern im- provements. It was a favorite subject | of early American painters and fortu- nately is preserved for us on their can- vases. In Fredericksburg, Va., after the Revolution, came Washington to Ken- more estate, where, along the walk leading to the great house, he planted 113 horse chesthut trees, in honor of the States emerging from Colonies. One of | these proudly casts its shade over that pathway today. SURVEY REVEALS LESS Woodcock Secures Data for Wick- ersham Group and Report Is Now Before Senate. | By the Associated Press. Do young people drink more now than before prohibition? The Wickersham Commission_sought he answer from Prohibition Director | Woodcock when he made a special sur- | vey for it before taking his present of- |fice. His reply, among the data now be- fore the Senate, summed up reports from 30 educators in as many States: “There is less dripking by both girls and boys than before prohibition. ““There is less drinking in homes than before prohibition. “There is less drinking at social gatherings attended by youths of high school age than before prohibition. “A very small proportion of either high school boys or girls drink liquor at all and the number of habitual drinkers is almost negligible. “The use of liquor does not in a large measure contribute to juvenile delinquency. “There is less juvenile delinquency. not warrant believing conditions were ideal, even though they now are far | better than before the adoption of the eightcenth amendmen!

Don’t Pity Mountaineer (Continued From First Page.) house at meal time. The usual way of announcing dinner is, “Come and bring the chairs.” Strings of red peppers, small bags of garden sage and hands of tobacco hang against the jambs. Against the wall on the outside of the kitchen door is a small bench on which rests a cedar bucket, a tin washpan and a can of lye soap. Every member of the family washes his face and hands thoroughly before each meal and drfes on the meal sack hanging on the wall. All Sleep in Big House. ‘The entire family sleeps in the big house. My niece and her husband and the baby sleep in a bed in one corner of the room, and the two little girls sleep in the bed in the other corner. I share the bed mear the fireplace with my lit- tle namesake, Charlie. It is the first time in many years I have slept on a feather bed. ‘When I was growing up we were poor, but we had no need of money. Our soil wuhgoor and yleided reluctantly, but we d only to raise enough for our own consumption. We raised corn enough for our bread and to feed our stock and poultry. We also raised wheat, oats, potatoes, tobacco and sorghum. In our orchards and gardens we produced our fruits and vegetables, We cut and dried what we could of them for the Winter. Our forests were full of wild game, fuel and logs for our houses. My mother made the clothing for the entire family. ‘She manufactured it from raw cotton or wool to the finished garment, doing all her sewing by hand. She wove a heavy all-wool cloth out of | which she made the clothing ,for my father and us boys. She made a lighter | wool cloth called “linsey” for her dresses and the girls’, and a light-weight all- cotton cloth for the men's shirts and the women'’s underwear. Now my niece buys calico and blue denim on her yearly trips to town, and does her sewing on a machine. She cooks over a wood-burning stove, in- stead of the open fireplace, as did my mother, and they have matches. Cltside of that, I can see no changes. Traps and Markets Furs. My nephew, as did my father, traps and markets furs in the Winter, and | sometimes takes a load of apples to the | bottoms in the Fall. In this way he is able to raise the little money needed to | buy shoes and other things they can not produce. They need but one pal of shoes each, as the whole family goe§ barefoot eight months out of the twelva, We are about a fourth of a mile from the big road. This is the rough, rocky and seldom traveled highway | that'is marked “impassable.” It is the | only road leading out of the vicinity. | We are sometimes waterbound from this road, even, by a creek near the house that becomes swollen from ex- | ?estsilve rains and too swift and deep to ord. ‘This home of my niece is not much worse or much better than the homes | of the other mountain people. We rarely see a stranger here. If a stranger does come by, and he is of the moun- | tain type, he is made to feel at home. People’ living beyond the confines of the mountains have a walk, talk, dress and actions foreign to my people, hence they are called “furreners.” ‘The nearest railroad is 30 miles away, and it is as close as they want it. They have no desire for the conveniences and | luxuries enjoyed by the people of the cities. Nor is there envy in their atti-, tude toward me because I have been | away and lived in a house with soft chairs and a piano. Little Charlie has never seen a motion picture show, nor | has he heard of a radio. But it would | never occur to him to feel inferior to| my grandchild his age, who takes these | things for granted. | He can shoot a cork off a bottle. and he knows every tree and bird of the mountains. He has no curiosity about the lowlands. ‘The real mountaineer is not at all the poverty-stricken, ‘“degenerate” mill- worker that is causing so much discus- slon. He enjoys too much the freedom of his home an hills, for he is the perpetual froni an. He has his own cabin, hog, chickens and cow, his vegetable garden and orchard. There is an abundance of wild game and fish. His wants are few, and he owes no one. He has various ways of earning the few dollars necessary for clothes for his family. If he is not too far from a eneral store he can raise a surplus of ood and trade it for gingham or over- alls. Sometimes the ringing ax of the ‘weodsman comes near and he can find employment for a month or so. If he can turn his corn into “mountain dew" to buy shoes for his family you would have a hard time convincing him that it is wrong. ‘The mountain people have a dialect and a pronunciation of their own. For instance, they say “far” for “fire.” *fur” for “far” and “fer” for “for.” They say “hit” for “it” ir” for “are,” and for the plural “you” they say “you'ens” instead of “you-all,” as so many think. I have never yet heard any one use “you-all” for the second person singular, either in the mountains or in the swamps. I hope that séme %:Y certain writers of fiction will learn is. Father Knew Herbs. My father knew every herb and its curing qualities, and was much revered by his neighbors. There are some fam- illes that still remember him, and as Old Doc Hogue's son, Wayman, I am treated royally, in spite of my outland- ish speech. I have to be careful not to contaminate their pure if ungrammati- cal language with our modern slang. Our nearest neighbor lives about a mile and a half from us. He lives in a small log house of one room. His old clay chimney leans and is propped up with a pole. The open cracks between the logs, where the clay has fallen out, are stuffed with old quilts. The roof leaks, and he has to set tubs and pans on the beds to protect them from water when it rains. He and his wife and six children live, eat and sleep in this one room. On his land are choice building timbers, long, straight.trees, which could be felled at no cost and little work, and with them a comfortable, commodious house could be built. It probably has never occurred to him that he could do this. This house was good enough for his father and his father's father, and it is good enough for him. Another neighbor, whom I shall call George, lives 6 miles from us. Recently ‘harlie and I were hunting a stray calf. Our cattle are allowed to roam the countryside, and usually come home at dusk. We rode up to George's house at noon and asked if he had seen the calf. “Naw,” he saild, “hain't seed no stray calf around here, but git down and come in to dinner.” Wouldn't Take Excuses. I tried to make excuses, saying that we were anxious about the calf and wanted to be going. “Wal,” said George, “she mought be aroun’ in these here diggin’s some'rs, and I'll be on the lookout fer her. But you'ens git down.

His wife was in the doorway smiling, indicating that she was pleased to have us sta; “You'ens take seats on t log in the shade and I'll rustle up a far,” said George, “an’ we'll skear up some dinner in three shakes uv a sheep's tail.” While George made a fire his wife shucked some ears of green corn and, with & can flattened out and perforated with nail holes, she grated the corn into meal. With this she baked a large hoe- cake, George brought up a fresh bucket of water and a jar of milk from the spring. “Come in:to dinner, Wayman, you an’ the little un,” he said. “You take ¢ seat on the box, I'll set on the bed, an’ I don't guess the little fellow will mind standin’.” The table was a packing box set up on legs. In the middle of this table, on & broken dish, was the hind quarter of a deer that had been well cooked over & smoky fire. A few pieces had been sliced off and were on the edge of the plate. Mrs. George did not eat with us. A mountain woman would never be so inhospitable as to sit at the table and eat ‘with the company. She serves us and fans the flics away as we cat. There werc three tin plates on the table. At my plate there was the only knife, an old case knife with the han- dle broken. There were no forks or spoons. There were two tin cans on the table, and Mrs. George filled them by dipping them into the jar of milk. ‘When I saw there were only two cans I started to pass my can to George. “We Air Clean Out uv Deeshes.” “No, no,” said George. “You'ens take the cans. I don't never’drink no milk for dinner, nohow.” “We air clean out uv deeshes,” Mrs. George sald. “I've been tryin' to git George to git some, but he ain't never done it yit.” k “Got no use fer deeshes lessén T had sompen to eat'out uv 'em, ain’t that so, Wayman?” said George. George s not over industrious and occupies most of his time hunting and fishing. He tills two or three acres of ground, getting. it plowed by swapping work with some one who has a horse. Like the other mcuntaineers around him, his wants are few, and he can roduce almost everything he needs on is Jand. I believe $30 would cover his expenses for a year, including a pair of shoes each and his ammunition. Our_rich neighbors live in a double hewn log house, whitewashed with lime. They have orchards, flelds and pastures well fenced. One family markets a number of young mules every year; they have a matting on the floor, and send their daughter to school in Hot Springs. Even the conversation of t! son can pass my house tains remains unchanged. When we get tired of discussing religion and the Bible we can turn to homicides, brawls and feuds. Then there are the adven- tures of the hunter and trapper. There is always something new taking place among them. When we run completely out of anything else to talk about we can only fall back on ghosts—only they are not called “ghosts,” they are called “haints” or “sperrits.” Tell Ghost Stories. “Haints” are dead people who come back to earth and exhibit themselves in various characters and forms. They usually dwell in and around very old and long abandoned houses. Sometimes they have been known to dwell right in the house and on the place with people, One night T went with my nephew and niece to “set up” with a sick child As was usual In cases of this kind, & large crowd was there. The house had two rooms with a hall between. The child and those who nursed it were in one of the rooms, while the rest of us sat in the other room. All arguments for and against infant baptism had been exhausted and the conversation was lagging for want of a subject, when one of the men broke the silence with, “Any you'ens hearn about the haint over at Bill Smith's house?” “What wuz it?" asked another. “Wal, Zeke Coats wuz a-tellin® me about it,” the first man said. “He said he stayed all night at Bill's house one night last week, an’ way in the night he hyeard a racket that waked him up. Said it fuss 'peared lak it wuz heavy draps o' rain fallin’ on the roof. Sot in at one corner and went anglin® crost to tother corner, an’ kep’ gittin’ louder an’ louder till it went lak bales uv cotton fallin’ on top uv the house.” “I never believe much in hain said George, throwing a pine knot in tke fire. “But one night I shore did git a skear passin’ the old Jolsen Robinson place. My mule shied at somethin’ and 1 looked and seed a corpse layin’ acrost the road. Hit looked lak a man in shroudin’, an’ a white_sheet wropped | aroun’ him. I spurred My mule, but he wouldn't go by, an’ I had to go way round it.” Followed by Sperrit. “Wal, I'll tell ye what I seen,” sald another tall, raw-boned fellow, a typical mountaineer. “You'ens can b'lieve it or let it alone, but I know it to be a fack. I was passin’ thar one night, twixt sun- down an’ dark, an’ jist as I got per- nence the o' meetin’ house I seen a infernt plum neckid.

The infernt kept right up with the hoss till T got to timber, an’ then hit jist all at once vanished. If I ever go down th;‘r agin, hit will be in broad day- light.” The stories kept up until everyone had told of some experience. They were not told as tales or ghost stories, but as actual facts. There are witches in our neighbor- hood, too. The younger people do not take much stock in them, but they are a favorite pest of the older men and women, told that night were exactly like tlhiose I had heard 50 years before. Thought Cows Bewitched. When I was a child here a man | whom we called Old Bill lived with his family in a lonely hollow through | which the public road passed. Some kind of disease had spread among Old | Bill's cattle, and he lost three or four head. Now. the thing to do to save his | cows. Old Bill thought, was to kill the | witch, for he was sure the cows had been bewitched. He got some silver and molded a_ silver bullet—it is be- lieved that silver has a fatal effect upon a witch. Then Bill went out and raked up a ring of leaves about 50 feet | across. ~ Just before midnight he set | fire to the leaves and waited for the witch, for he had learned that the way to catch a witch was to make a fire at midnight and the witch would run into it. In preparing his ring of fire, how- ever, Old Bill had made it across the public road. | Doctor Gannoway had been off on & |late call, end on his way back rode through the ring of fire, thinking noth- ing of it. When he rode into the ring Old Bill | Jobn, T got ye at last.” Loaded With Silver Bullet. Old Bill chuckled, holding the bridle reins with his left hand, aimed his rifle | with his right and said, “I got ye now whar I kin kill ye. Ye cain't git away.” Holding up the gun, he said, “Hi {(oaded with a silver bullet, and hit will ill ve.” The doctor tried to quiet him and get out of him what he meant. “Wal,” said Old Bill, “I built & ring uv far an’ ye run into it. You air the witch, an’ I'm agoin’ to kill ye.” The doctor quickly drew his revolver and took the old man’s gun. Old Bill began crying, and said, “Why, John, you know you'll kill all my cows, an’ we'll starve to death.” | The doctor then pointed out that the | ring was bullt around the road. | And so even in the topics of conver- ation my homeland has remained un- changed through the years.

His life is his own choice. He has the peace and seclusion he desires; he has no rent to worry him. His taxes are very little, and he has not the fear of losing his Job and the worry of old age thet marg of his brothers of the cities have. The few of us who have been lured away by ambition, if we have not become too involved in possessions, always manage to come back home—even if it takes | 40 years. |GRATEFUL WAR VETERAN NAMES BABY CARAWAY Senator and Red Cross Comes to Aid of Destitute Arkansas Family.
