THE successful shipment of a car load
of strawberries to Chicago ought to
mean that the producers of this luscious
fruit will get better prices for theirpro-
duct hereafter, but there is no certainty
that they will. The present acreage is
small compared with what it will be if
the experiment is thoroughly successful
and even now, with a comparatively
scanty crop, first-class berries are re-
failing in the Sound cities for five C .nts

canning tons of berries that are forced
upon the market to ripe for shipment
and thus bring down prices to consum
ers in the cities, before the growers will
find much profit in the business.

NEWSPAPER CHANGES.
A General Shake Up Among the NeN
 Haven Editors.

A General Shake Up Among the New
 Haven Editors.
 William Rodman, for many years city editor of the New Haven Register. retired from that position last night. His suc- cessor is Robert E. Day. who up to three and half years ago had been the city edi- tor of the Palladium for many years.
 This change in the Register office has actually been decided upon. Others are known to be in contemplation. Rumor has it that Colonel N. G. Osborn will soon vacate the editorial chair and that Harry H. Palmer, the associate editor, will leave the papers employ with the colonel.
 James F. Scott, the assistant city tditor, who is now on his way home from trip to Europe will, it is said, soon be suc- ceeded by another newspaper worker.
 The same rumor recites that Samuel A. York will in the future direct the editorial policy of the paper with George E. Bearn, who, until recently, was deputy labor commissioner, in active charge.
 The Register recently passed out of the hands of the Osborn family, the stock, that is the majority of it, having been pur- chased by friends of John D. Jackson, the business manager of the paper, who trans ferred it to MT Jackson and to Samuel A. York, jr.
 Out of this turnover in the Register office may grow the. publication of a new afternoon paper in New Haven, or possi- bly,, the purchase by Colonel Osborn and his friends, of one of the papers already acka h1iuhad

THINNING FRUIT.
II Makes a More Profitable Crop and Saves
 the Trees.


 the Trees.
 The next essential thing after you have got your fruit started, says MT. J. H. Hale, the Connecticut fruit grower, is judicious thinning of it. I believe the thinning of apples should begin when they first begin to bear. A we'll planted and we'll fed tree will begin to bear early. Only let it bear little All low some of the strength to go into the development of the fruit buds for next year. Next year thin pretty closely then by and by you will build up an orchard that will have no off years ill it. There isn't an off year. It is because the ap- pies are ill the hands of an off man. Thinning constantly would bring it into constant bearing
 It is seed growing that exhausts the vitality. There are no more seeds in a large fruit than iii a small one, and a large one doesn't take any more vitality out of tree If Keiffer pear tree has on it a thousand pears, and you take off 500 of them, the balance will weigh as much as the whole of them and bring more money, weakening the tree only half as much. Our rule for thin n1AS pSuChSS IS AOb lO 4SdN0 O1l0 WlEu1n four inches of another. This covers the ground with green fruit and looks like destruction, but at the end of the season there are more bushels than there would have been.
 Thin by hand. Put stepladders under the trees and put boys on them whose bump of destructiveness is large, and tell them to go ahead. We begin when the peaches are three-quarters of an inch in diameter, and take everything that is curculio stung and diseased. These we cart away and burn. The rest that are taken off are dropped on the ground and left there. In future our three or four year old peach trees shall not bear over 250 peaches; our four or five year old trees not over 300, and full grown trees not over 500. That means six inches apart; 500 peaches on tree will make six to eight baskets of fancy fruit. Three thousand peaches to tree won't make more, nor sell for more money, and the trees are ruined.

MIDDLETowN, August 24.-Nothing has yet been seen of John Dwyer who escaped from the hospital for the insane Wednes. day night. Officers in the surrounding towns have been sent description of the missing man and have been asked to be on the lookout for him. His insanity is mild and he is considered perfectly harmless.

THE WORLD OF SPORT.

Games are commenced in Washington so late that it is invariably dark by the time the seventh inning is over. A re- quest for the calling of the game is de- trrmined altogether by the condition of the score board.
 John Ward is already being trotted out for manager of the Philadelphias in 1896, and by New York paper, too.
 Young blood seems to have the call this year. The season has been marked by an unusual demand for new talent. Manager Mack heard that Pitcher Hast ings had held Western league team down to one hit, he lost no time in telegraphing Manager Manning an increase of $500 over his offer of $2 GOO previously made. It is doubtful If Hastings is sold this season. Staley's record while with the St Louis club was IA full games as pitcher, of which he won four and lost 10, and his batting average was .151.
 The New York papers are predicting that next years manager of the New Works will be one who will sit on the bench and en- force discipline. They must have tip. There does not seem to be SO much said about the league umpires of late, and the absence of disordely scenes is noticeable This would appear to indicate that there has been an improvement in umpires all along the line, or that so much has been said about the "kickers" and their disre putable conduct that they have crawled in. to their holes.
 The New York club has lost more games so far this season than they did all last year.
