extraordinary and fatal accident oc-
Cured in the Blanconia settlement in
the southern part of the county several
days ago. Susan Griffith negro wo-
man, was having well bored at her
home, and while the drillers were at

him out failed. Neighbors who had
come to the rescue dug away the earth
down to where the child was, but when
eXtricated he was dead from suffoca-

Good Outlook For Fruit, Ex-

After heavy showers, the 18th OF
May dawned bright and clear, and in
the pleasant home of Mr.. and Mrs. Al
bert Hale, of Mogadore, the Summit
County Horticultural Society assembl-
ed, many bringing in great punches OF
beautiful spring flowers.
Over so people were seated for a
bountiful dinner and at 2 p. M. the
company was called to order by Presi-
dent c. N. Gaylord, and the meeting
opened with beautiful vocal solo by
Mr.. Henry Gates, and a reading by
Miss Amy Hale.
The minutes of the last meeting
were read and adopted. The exhibit
OF flowers consisted of red and yellow
tulips, maple-bells, begonias, lilies Of
the valley and bleeding hearts.
Mr.. l.. B. Pierce says we may expect
good crops of apples, plums, sweet and
sour cherries, but no peaches.
Mr.. Pierce recommends dry spray
ing, for the reagon that it Is so much
more easily handledl than liquids, and
1t serves the purpose just as well, II
not better. DR.. Priest, of Akron, gave
much valuable information on this
subject.
Mr.. /. p Spery urges the planting
of ornamental trees and shrubs. He
says 1t Is a duty which we owe our
selves, to beautify our homes in this
way.
Mr.. Maurice Bettes gave talk on
ornithology. We hope to hear from
him again.
Mr.. Baldwin says that many of our
birds are very useful in destroying
many of the Insects that are destroy
ing many Of our trees and shrubs. He
says that before our next meeting,
many of the pests that invade our
gardens will appear, and currant
bushes should be sprayed with paris
green and bordel mixture. Plum
trees should be sprayed, but this alone
is not effectual, the trees should also
harmed by the blight IL spraying is
continued every few days. :,
Some of our members asked for in
formation concerning the Buffalo
moth. Mr.. Baldwin and DR.. Priest
gave information along this line. An
enemy Of the moth is n small, reddish
brown fly, that, at this time of the
year, Is generally found on the win
dows.
: Mr.. Teeple gave short talk on for
estry. Instead of reading an essay,
Rev. Mr.. Scott, of Tallmadge, gave
very interesting talk on horticulture.
This was full of valuable information,
and well worth hearing. An interest
ing discussion followed this talk.
The society adjourned to meet in
June, Mt the call of the secretary. The
time of the meeting will be decided by
