A Variety of Promise to Commercial
Pear Growers. ~
One of the most evident needs of the
American commercial pear grower is
an attractive winter variety Of good
dessert quality that is at the same
time productive and least fairly re-

nestle winter pears is rarely equal to
the demand of our domestic markets.
One Of the best pomological authori-

promising new variety in this field. 1t

grower, thus far free from blight and
regularly productive. The fruit is
somewhat subject to scab in the To-

to be sprayed to protect against this

BRING THEM IN.

t. J. Study has returned from In
dianapolis where he went TO see the
complaint for a restraining order
against the city OF Richmond for put
ting into effect the ordinance pro-
hibiting the operation of traction cars
on Main street east of Eighth street.
Mr.. Study is very uon-commital as to
the plan of campaign he has decided
on in the fight To be waged by the
city against the traction interests.
The complaint includes about
twenty-five pages" Mr.. Study stated.
and is general in its character, the
point brought out being that the en-
forcement of the ordinance would In
jure the business of the traction COM
pany."
Il cannot make a statement on that
point" Mr.. Study said, when asked TX
he intended to apply for restraining
order prohibiting the Terre Haute,
indianapolis & Eastern traction COM
pany from leasing its Main street
tracks to the Dayton & Western.
1t is Mr.. Study's opinion that the
fight between the city OF Richmond
and the traction company will revolvc
about the point as 10 whether the
traction company has the right under
the existing state laws TO operate
freight cars on Main street. Mr. Stu.
dy states that IL the city can prove
the traction company has not this
right he is confident the company will
capitulate and grant all the demands
made by the city.
Dayton & Western cars operated In
to the city now are met at Moormans

into the interurban station by Terre

until the car is returned using an abb

Money which has been divided among
the many teachers of the county can
now be used in making the salaries
more attractive for a nigh class of in
