 Through the generosity of Wilson H. Lee, of the Price, Lee, Adkins company, and Mrs. Lee, the employees of the Price, Lee company and the Price, Lee, Adkins company enjoyed a splendid outing at MT. Lees farm in Orange on Saturday, The party, numbering over one hundred, left this city on the 12:10 O clock train.
 The first event of the afternoon was a ball game on the commons between the printers and the boys of Fairlee farm, which was won by the latter, il to 2, The game was not so one-sided as the score would indicate. For seven in nings the farm boys made only two runs and the local boys one. It was a battle of pitchers, Cargill, for the lo- calls, striking out eighteen men, and Buckholtz doing the same for the farm boys.
 In the eighth and ninth innings the farm boys broke loose and scored nine runs. But the local boys are very well satisfied, as their team had never played together for the occasion. It was freely admitted by the farm boys that their team was a practical one and that they had thre outsiders who were some of the best players in Orange.
 The only accident was to F. Hagen unger, the catcher for the locals. He had a finger dislocated in the eighth in- ming.
 The line up was
 Fairlee Farm-B. Foyer, C.; c. Buck holtz, D.. P. Clark, h.. c. Newell, 2b. J. Twitchell, 3D.; R. E. Pomeroy, ss.; G. N. Barnes, I. f; G. N. Diston, l. f.; R. Coyne, c. f.
 P, L. & A. Co.--H, Smith, ss.; F. Ha- genunger, C.; H. Graver, 3b.; R. Cargill, D.; W. Broderick, l. f.; H. w. Brown, h.. c. Hofacker, r. f.. c. Dickerman, 2b.; A. Ferguson, c. f.; sub, A. Durkin.
 As soon as the game was over the party piled into the four large farm wagons which were in waiting and were borne off to Fairlea farm, two miles distant. The float drawn by yoke of oxen attracted the ladies and they made jolly crowd.
 The farm reached, refreshments were in order and were artakpen of most heartily in pleasant grove opposite MT. Lees home. The delight of all was the milk, for which MT. Lees farm is noted, and the person in charge of that beverage was besieged for half an hour. But as ever, MT. Lee had made ready for the big demand and all were satisfied.
 Just before dinner MT. Lee made a sparkling speech of welcome and be- spoke the hearty good feeling of all the members of the Price, Lee, Adkins con- pany toward their employes.It was at this point that MT. Lee presented to MT. Pomeroy, captain of the farm base ball team, as winners, trophy which he said had been purchased at great expense-a tin Towing cup" of large di- mensions. This sally provoked great merriment and applause The "cup" was appropriately marked P, L., A. & Co. vs. Fairlee Farm, July T, 1906.
 As soon as dinner was over the Fair lee Farm quartette sang a number of selections, which were roundly applaud ed by the guests. Then on behalf of the party, George W, Perrin of Springfield, Mass, and Ira Waldron read resolu- tions of thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Lee for the pleasant outing afforded them.
 To many the most enjoyable part of the whole trip was the inspection of the cattle and dairy, Mr. Lees barns and methods of handling cattle are models of moderness and convenience and cleanliness. Every one of the 125 anil mals is as carefully groomed and cared for as a race horse. Each is named and numbered and careful record of each cows production is carefully kept. All are Jerseys and the bulls are of the purest blooded stock. The Fairlee Farms dog is from sire who won first prize at the Chicago Worlds Fair and | was valued at $l0, ,000 The golden rule-"Do unto a COW as you would that a cow should do unto you" holds a conspicuous place in MT. Lees regime and is posted in plain sight of all employees. Another rule is that every tool shall be kept in its place and no smoking Is allowed in the barns. This explains the merits of the arms products and the excellence of he milk and cream, About six hun lred quarts are produced daily at pres mi,
 The last event of the day was a pie ure of the group. When all took their places in the four wagons which were waiting and with hearty cheers for the lost and hostess were off for home
 It was especially gratifying to see so many of the employees on this trip. And he employers were equally as loyal Among the loudest rooters at the ball rame were Messrs. Price and Adkins. The party arrived in this city about six l'clook. N
