MR. WILSON EOR THIRD TERM?
Cummings Says l ate of League Will
Determine < 'andblaey.
(Mileage, May 2N. President Wil
son's candidacy for a third term will
lie determined largely Dy ihr fate of
lh.> League of Nations, in the opin
ion of Homer S, Cummings, chairman
of Hie Democratic National Commit
tee, ulm ?'ame to Chicano to-day lo
preside al a t\?o days session of
that body.
"While I have no information re
garding President Wilson's intention
about becoming a candidate for a
third term, I believe the question
tesis largely on Ibo fate of Ibo
League of .salions." said Chairman
Cummings. "If the League ol' Na
tions should by any chance be de
feated and this lo my mind is un
thinkable Hie pressure brough! lo
bear on the President li? run again
would bo very great, and I fool cer
tain lu* would be re-elected. If the
League of Nations is successful, I do
not think Ibo pressure would be near
ly so great."
In ibo absence of definite word
from President Wilson on the subject
lhere was nulo gossip of candidates
among the parly leaders. I bo inuit's
mostly mentioned were Wm. tl. Mc
Adoo. forimr Secretary of the Trea
sury, and A. Mitchell Palmer, United
States Attorney Honorai.
Every State was represen I tul by a
committeeman or a proxy when the
body was called to order by Chair
man Cummings in a session which
formally marks the opening of the
Presidential campaign of 1020.
Cummings praised the record and
the progressive achievements of the
Democratic administration, and de
clared Hutt the Republican party is
failing under reactionary leadership,
as indicated by the recent organiza
tion of Congress. Ile tuged a closer
co-opera I ion between the fl i fi?rent
departments of the parly organiza
tion during the next campaign, and
rofcrred to tho important part Hie
women will take in futuro political
activities. Ho said be expected to
visit every State in Hie Union before
returning to New York.
Mr. Cummings said that the party
headquarters would remain in Wash
ington until the opening of the ?1120
campaign, when they would bo re
moved to New York, lt is probable,
be said, that sun-headquarters will
be opened in Chicago and Other cities
later.
'"This meeting to-day marks tho
opening of an activo and militant
campaign for 11)20," he said, in ad
dressing the committee. "We are
able to point with pride to Hie record
of President Wilson and (be Demo
eratic national ad minist ra I ion in the
matter of progressive legislation.
"Prom the passage by ('engross of
the in< onie lax law to Hie establish
ment ol' the Ped era I reserve bunk
system, the movement of the Demo
emile parly has been steadily for
ward. When war came, it seemed
for a time as if daylight had dropped

No mater .?hat critics mav ray, bls

.-lory IK written, the American people
will be satisfied and grateful, I look
forward to the campaign ot" 1020
with the utmost confidence, mn only
in the righteousness ol' our cans,',
bat in ils triumph."
Tho selection of Hie meeting place

vention was Informally discussed by
the committeemen, alt bough thr*

METHOD FOR TAGGING TREES
Linen Cloth, Coated With Paraffin,
Has Advantages-Mud Easily
Removed by Washing.
(Prepared by tho TTnl?e?t states Depart
ment of Agriculture)
Linen cloth Is now being used In
some of tile experimental work of the
United States deportment of agrlcub
turo In tagging trees and has been
found to be very successful. Writing
on wooden tags, which were formerly
used/ soon becomes Illegible, wblld
copper tugs are not only expensive
but are not large enough for sufficient
data. The linen tags are tlrst soaked
several days ia water to remove thc
sizings and then dried and smoothed
with a bot flat Iron. Data ls written
with India Ink, using a round-pointed
pen. The ink soaks in Dut does not
run. Such tags will last a year or
longer. When they are to be used foi
longer periods or under conditions
where the tags come In contact with
the ground, they ore coated with par
affin after labeling. One method ls lo
dil) them in a mixture of gasoline and
pu ra flin (proportion one quart ol
gasoline to one-half pound paraffin).
The gasoline evaporates, leaving a Ulm
of pundin. If thc tans become con ted
with mud they can easily be washed
and the Ink shows np clearly. Such
tags may be used In a variety of ways,
for when treated in this manner thej
last exceptionally well.

WHIP GRAFTING IS FAVORED
Method Has Advantage of Being
Adapted to Small Plants-Can Be
Done During Winter.
(From the United Staten Department ol
AKrlcultnre.) !
Whip grafting ls the ono almost
universally used In root grafting. Il
has the advantage of hoing well adapt? ;
ed to small plants only ono or twe
years of ago, as Voil as tho other great ?
consideration that lt can be dono In- !
doors during the comparative lelsur? j
of winter.
The graft Is made by cutting th? !
stock off diagonally-one long, smooth
cut with a sharp knife, leaving about
three-fourths of an inch of cut sur
face. Place the knife about one-third
of the distance from the end of tin
cut surface, at right angles to the cut,
and spilt the stock in thc direction ol
Its long axis. Cut the lower end ol
the scion in like manner, and when thc
two parts are forced together the cul
.surfaces will lit neatly together and
will nearly cover the other if scion and
stock are of the same size. A difference
in diameter of the two parts to be
united may bo disregarded unless lt be

Scion; c, Stock and Scion United.
too great. After the scion and stock
have been locked together they should
be wrapped with live or six turns ot
waxed cotton to bold the parts firmly
together.
While top grafting may be done In
this way, lt ls In root grafting that the
whip graft finds Its distinctive field.
When the roots are cut Into lengths ot
two to five or six Inches to bo used ns
stocks, the operation ls known ns piece
root grafting. Sometimes the entire
root fS used.
The roots are dug and tho scions
are cut in the foll nnd stored. Tho
work of grafting may be done during
the winter months. When the opera?
tlon has been performed, thc grafts
are packed away In moss, sawdust or
sand In a cool cellar to remain until
spring. It ls Important that the placo
of storage should be cool, else tho
grnfts may start into growth and bo
ruined, ox boating and rotting may oc
cur. If the temperature ls kept low-?
not above 40 degrees P.-there will be
no growth except callusing and tho
knitting together of stock and scion.
In ordinary propagation by means ot
whip grafts, the scion is cut with about
three buds, and the stock ls nearly as
long ns the seton. Thc graft is so
planted ns to bring the union of stock
and scion not very far below the surface
of the ground ; but where the trees aro
required to bo especially bardy In or?
der to stand severo winters, and tho
roots used are not known to bo so
hardy na tho plants from which tho
scions bnvo been cut, a different plan
ls adopted. The scions are cut much
longer and the roots mny be cut short?
cr, and the graft ls planted so deep ns
to cause roots to Issue from the lower
end of the scion. When taken up to
bo set In the orchard, the original root
may be removed entirely, leaving noth
ing but tho scion and the roots which
have been put forth from lt. This ls
n common practice In preparing nur
sery stock for plnntlng in the north
ern part of the Mississippi valley.
