Protection Does Protect.

From time immemorial Martinsburg
merchants have been in the habit Of
bnying watermelons from dealers out
side the city.
A few weeks since the city council
enacted an ordinance imposing a IL
cense of $50 car on melons or other
commodities brought here and ex-
posed for sale by non-residents.
We did not just exactly approve OF
it for the reason that we have fond
ness for melons and feared the price
might be enhanced
Being protected our own merchants
ordered melons by the car load ard
now the finest melons we ever saw
can be had at greatly reduced prices.
No furthur argument is needed that
Protection does protect.

Those Statements.

We this week send statements to
many Of our patrons.
One object is to effect settlement
of old accounts and another is to know
if our list is correct. Many of these
bills were purchased two years ago.
All such must be settled. There is
not sufficient profit in the business
for US to carry them longer.
We trust no one will be offended,
but if any should be so unreasonable
it will be well to know it now.
Ifthere are any errors we will take
pleasure making the proper corrrc-
tons. We hope all will receive the
statements in the spirit in which they
are sent.

Cruelty to Animals.

Last Saturday evening a man by
the name of Greenfield, who lives
near the mountain, came to town and
after becoming very much intoxicated
came to the square where his horse
was hitched He loosed the reins,
but instead of backing it from the
hitching post, he struck the animal
with large club over the mouth and
head several times. Some ladies and
gentlemen who were on the sidewalk
called to the cowardly brute to stop
when officer Burrell Martin came up
and compelled Greenfield to get in
his wagon with his boy and start for
home. He drove away at break-neck
speed.

Defeated but not Disn,ayed.

Since our last report base bali mat
tiers have been quite sensational. The
team brought home from their trip
last week a string ofdefeats but honor
still remained
At Hagerstown. Friday. they put
a good game until the seventh inning
when the umpire rendered decision
which was considered rather rank and
Manager Thompson called his men
off the field. Of course The game was
, given to Hagerstown
The small boys and some not so
small guyed the Martinsburg people
considerably, but that only showed
their ill-breeding and vas condemned
by the better element.
On Saturday a new schedule was
arranged and several games added,
which materially prolongs the con-
test. Chambersburg and Carlisle
wanted to dump Martinsburg but
Hagestown objected and the League
stands intact.
Monday Carlisle played here. The
game was good At the commence
ment of the eighth inning the score
stood 5 to o in favor of Martinsburg.
Luck then deserted them and Carlisle
scored five runs. This part of the
game is unexpiainable unless it was
that Boyer of the Statesman had be-
come enthusiastic. 1t was his
first visit to the ball field and he
imagined he was mascot. Now he
knows he was not. Some say it was
because the Herald man refused to
applaud. We don't know.
Hagerstown plays here Monday and
Chambersburg, Tuesday Martins
burg goes to Carlisle Thursday Cham
bersburg Friday, and Hagerstown
Saturday.
Lovers of fine sport will find Mon
day and Tuesdays games first class.

All farmers agree that the time to cut
corn is about when the grain is glazing
and when the stalk is yet green, and
that, too, before frost. For the most
part ten hills square is about the gener-
at size for shocks. While all will en-
deavor to do as much work in a given
time as is possible each one will en-
ploy different methods in so doing.
A hundred hills make a very good shock,
one that will stand and keep we'll,
writes an Iowa Homestead correspond
emit, who tells that he once had an Ohio
man cut up lot of corn for him in such
q manner that the shock rows stood 80
or 40 rows apart. They were so thick in
the rows that they touched each other.
On every two hills stood a shock, and
it was carried in from 20 rows on each
side. The object of doing this work in
this way was to have the ground as
clear as possible to put in winter wheat
He also cut up some 80 rows between
shock rows which were by 80. He said
that it required but little more travel
ing to do the work in this way than did
the old fashioned ten hill square meth
