willthe Filston Farm Propert

Will the Filston Farm Property be Sold ?
The Baltimore NeUS of Saturday last said it
was reported that day that negotiations were in
progress for the property of the Filston Farm
ty. There are several reports current, but the
most persistent is that the Natural Food Com
pany of New York, or Mr.. H. D. Perky, of
Niagara, N. Y, its president, is negotiating for
the property. 1t is also reported that it is the
intention of Mr.. Perky, should he buy it, to es-
tablish big agricultural training school on the
place. This school is 10 be similar to the one
operated by him in Worcester, Mass. In this
school hundreds of girls are trained in domes-
tic sciences, and boys are also trained in agri-
cultural work. The dairy, it is also reported,
will be continued should the property be pur-
chased.
It has also been rumored that the National
Food Company proposed to cultivate the land
and would buy the Phoenix Mill for the pur-
pose of conducting manufacturing plant for
products such as shredded wheat and other
foods.
The affairs of the dairy have been in the
hands of receiver-Mr. Charles H. Knapp
since December Sd. Mr. Knapp has filed Pc
titiOn asking the court for permission to give
an option on the property. He said that he
had not heard of Mr. Perky being after it, but
that there had been several offers made, and
that if Mr.. Perky is thinking of buying the
site negotiations were being conducted through
a third person. In the petition to the court
the receiver said that the amount offered would
fully cover "Reminiscences of the Dairy Com
pany, and that it would also enable the receiver
to pay large sum to the stockholders.
Reports that Mr.. George A. Swartwout
manager of the Filston Farm Company, with
several New York friends, and also that Mr..
Asa B. Gardiner, of the Gardiner Dairy Com
pany, were trying to purchase the property,
have been denied by both men. Mr. Swart-
won't said that plans for reorganization of the
company were in progress, and that new money
WAS Ts. 10 DE- DroHgnr INTO tne concern Germ. d0e
acres of land and has about $40, 900 invested in
stock. The entire property it is estimated is
worth in the neighborhood of S1S5000. Mrs.
Mary A. Austen, of New Y ork whose hus.
band organized the company, is the principal
stakeholder.

Bad Condition of the Hartford Road
zone of the walkers who can't get to work,
writes as follows to THE UNION from Park
vlle Hartford road
"Kindly let me avail myself of your columns
to say a few words in reference to the condition
of the Hartford road north of Hamilton avenue.
At the present time know of seven ladies who
can't get through the mud to reach the cars so
as to go to work. In trying to grade the hill at
the g. Mile House, for instance, the third of the
road is ready for the new electric line tracks,
the other two-thirds has been plowed few hum
bred feet and left there as it was turned over.
Now mud that reaches to the axles of wagons
remains there for people to puddle through
This is one instance, at least. Two-thirds of the
road for three miles Is ruined.
ut will take one to two years to get the road
in condition again as it was. The Hartford road
was one of the best driving roads out of Balti-
more until the new electric line got hold of it
and took to topping of good surface with soft
dirt three to eighteen inches deep. Anyone can
Judge the condition of the road now after the
late rains. Ladies and all using the road pray
that the managers of the Baltimore and Belair
Electric Railway will give them some considera-
ton. If they manage the running of the new
line as they have the construction of the road
so far, they may as well sell out"

A Postmaster in Trouble.-On Monday
last Rudolph r. Rowe, assistant postmaster
at SudbIook Park, and who also acted as sta
ton agent of the Western Maryland Railroad
and of the Adams Express Company, was held
by Commissioner Rogers for the action of
the Federal Grand Jury on the charge of max
ing alleged false returns to the Postofice De-
-partment as to the amount of cancellation of
stamps done at the Sudbrook postoffice. Mr..
Eugene BLACKBOARD, manager of Sudbrook
Park, is postmaster, and, as stated, allowed
Rowe all the net revenue as compensation for
taking charge OF the Office.
The Government pays in such Offices on the
amount of cancellations, and it is stated that,
becoming suspicious on account of the amount
of cancellations over the sale of stamps at the
Office, the railway mail clerks were instructed
to keep tab on all outgoing mail from the
Sudbrook office, so that for October last (as a
sample month";, while the tab" showed S24
due for cancellation, the return of the office
showed S62 worth of cancellations. For the
defense it was intimated that the excess could
be accounted for by cancellation or drop let
tiers, which, being delivered in Sudbrook Park
would not go out on the railroad.
Mr. Rowe, for whom MIR. Charles +. Harley
appeared as counsel, made no statement. Mr..
Frank s. Rowe, brother of the accused, went
bail in 81 900.

Decision in the Green Spring Valley
Road Matter.-The County Commissioners
have passed an order granting the petition of
Messrs. George G. Jenkins, Felix Agnus, Samuel
M. Shoemaker and others for the closing Of
what is known as the North road, running
through the property of Mr.. T. Dudley Riggs
near Stevenson, Green Spring Valley. The Pc
titioners alleged that Mr.. Riggs had not loca-
ted the road as promised when he secured the
consent of bis neighbors to the closing of the,
portion of the Garrison Forest road running
between his residence and bis barn. The Com
missioners did not grant the petition for the
opening of road running diagonally across
Mr. Riggs farm to replace the road closed.
In explanation of this Mr. Frank l. Duncanf
one of the counsel for the petitioners, saidss
1.-THE petitioners have practically won all they
ask for. The North road is closed. Of course
as we have secured an injunction restraining
Mr.. Riggs from closing the portion of the
Garrison Forest road, which was closed in lieu
of the opening of the North road, there is no
necessity for the County Commissioners order
ing the opening of the diagonal road, and there
will be no action taken until the Circuit Court
decides whether or not the injunction shall be
made permanent. The petitioners can then
either ask for the reopening of the old road OF
the opening of the diagonal one. of course
the County Commissioners were not going to
pass on q matter which is now pending in the
court"
MR.. RIGGS FILES HIS ANSWER.
Mr.. Riggs has filed an answer to the suit
filed against him asking that the injunction
granted be dissolved. He denies that he made
any misrepresentation in the matter, and
claims that he located the North road as was
recommended by former Roads Engineer
Crosby, and also that the road was duly accep-
ted by the County Commissioners. Mr.. Riggs
specifically denies all the allegations made
against him by the plaintiffs in the case, who
compose a number of taxpayers.
Messrs. D. G. Mcintosh and John Ye.!ott
attorneys for Mr.. Riggs, on Monday filed an APP
peal against the order of Judge Burke grant
ing an Injunction restraining him from closing
that portion of the Garrison Forest road rum
ming between his residence and his barn. Mr..
Riggs also filed bond for $1,000, and the case
now goes to the Court of Appeals. The injunc-
ton was granted on the petition of Mr.. George
C. Jenkins and number of the other imme
diate neighbors of Mr.. Riggs. The County
Commissioners on last Friday granted the pc
tition of the same gentlemen asking for the
closing of the North road, one of the two roads
which Mr.. Riggs opened in lieu of the closing
of that portion of the Garrison Forest road
referred to.

Gathered from Harford.--The Belair
Democrat of last week had the following items
"a cherry tree was cut down in January by
Mr.. G. Howard Amoss, of Fullerton, Balti-
The tree is in bud while other trees in the
neighborhood show no signs of life. The tree
is full of buds that are bursting forth into
bloom. How the tree obtained nourishment

ancient list, both hale. hearty and are in active
service. The older was built in 1916 by Abner
Galloway, brother of the late William Gallo
way, ex-CIerk Of the Hartford Court and the
other is fourteen years its junior. As these

demonstrate the durability and strength of
Hartford county wood and the excellence Of
Harford's workmanship"
