STRAWBERRIES
DON'T NEED RAIN

That's what Charley Rickard thinks
aod lac Is pretty good authority on
fruit culture Few men have better
success with fruit in this country
than G. G. Rickard of Lincoln Park.
His opinions have great weight with
his acquaintance, and when he says,
rs he did say to reporter for the
good crop OF marketable strawberries
he would not ask for rain, IL may be
depended upon that he had good
grounds for making the asscrtionn.
Mr.. Rickard has no strawberry
plants ON his place, but he has one of
the best pear, peach and apple or
chards in this part of the state. His
trees are loat.ed with fruit again this
year, and he said that he doubted If
there was ever n more promising out
look for heavy yield than right now.
The question of Strawberries, came
up in discussing the dry season Just
ended. The drouth extended almost
uninterruptcdly over n period of eight
months, yet nothing has suffered to
any appreciable extent. After study
ing the nature of the strawberry under
irrigation little, one can readily APP
preciate the wisdom of Mr.. Richards
statements. 1t is susceptible to reason
that the berries would be more sue
culcnt, brighter and sounder If the
roots were well watered, while the
parts above the ground were kept dry
and free from the accumulation of
grit; hence the fruit would be more
saleablc and command better price.
OF course Mr.. Richard did not
mean that If he had strawberry
patch where 1t could not be irrigated
he would not wish for rain. 1t would
be foolish for anyone to suppose that
he did

MANUFACTURING
BERRY BOXES

The new berry box machine owned
and introduced by the Fruit Growers
association this spring is. a wonder in
this section of the country. 1t works
ON the same principle of the stapling
machine in common use in printing
offices and bindries The staples are
made automatically from n spool of
wire and are placed and clinched by
the same motion A semi-expert
operator can attain n speed Of twenty
four boxes per minute, at least, this
is the record NJ. E. Snow established
one day last week The machine is
operated by foot power. 1t is circu.

FIREMEN FIND ILLICIT WHIsKEY
PLANT IN DWELLING HOUSE.
One Of the largest Illicit whskey distilIeries
ever unearthed in this district was discovered
in Yonkers last evening by a fire. The house
in which the still was is admirably situated for
the business. and might have for months
without interruption by either neighbors. police
or revenue officials. So careful were the
cupants that they took the precaution of hiring
the next house. which is fully two hundred feet
away. and they explained that it unoccupied
owing to the sickness Of their friends, who
had hoped to occupy it in the summer.
At . p the Fire Department received word
that a fire was burning in house on the Will
lam B. Rice estate, in the Sawmill River Road
The chief and the fremen responded and
checked the fire.
The fire had evidently started in the bathroom
of the house which built over addition
10 the main building the east side, and
had been converted into boiler room, from
which the still was operated Two large coffee
still burning, and the fumes of the mash
We're strong. The worm was badly burned, and
the rubber pipe leading from the boiler TO the
mash tub on the upper floor had been destroyed
In an upstairs room were ffty-eight barrels OF
mash bubbling and fermenting. There was also
found under the mash tub a barrel containing
about twenty gallons Of pure alcohol The house
was scantiIy furnished, but in the room with
the alcohol was cot bed with mattress and
bed clothing. There was no clew whatever to
the identity of the owner, no scrap of writing
being discovered in any of the rooms
From neighbors il was learned that the fanny
occupying the house consisted Of Jew, his wire
and eighteen -nonths-old baby and a servant
From time to time. II said old man Wis

agent. A F. Waller, Mile Square Road. said that
he mad let the building on May l. 1862 TO a man
giving the name Of Harris. Some framed por-
traits and others in an album. said to be pOr-
traits of Harris and his wife. were found in the
house.
