Hunters seem to have wreaked their
vengeance on the deer this year. as well
as on their fellowmen. It seems a
shame that there should be a season for
deer, when yearly it demands such q
high price in human lives. Our idea is
that the legislature should either make
an open or closed season. All the deer
in the upper peninsula are not worth
a life of one Of our fellow citizens.

 ABOUT OVER. FORTY.THREE CARS HAVE BEEN
 SHIPPED TO DATE. MAY RE ONE OR TWO MORE Good Prices Have Been Realized. and Season Has Been Satis-
 factory to Growers.
MAY RE ONE OR TWO MORE

Berry shipments since last re- port have been as follows: Mon day , cars, Tuesday cars, Wednesday , cars. 0f this number the Shippers Union loaded four cars and tie Farm CTS Union three cars. Berries the past week have sold for Sl.75 per crate.
 The total car lot shipments up 10 Wednesday evening amounted to 43 cars, and it IS doubtful If any more car lot shipments will be made. It Is possible that Johnson and this point may go in together and load another car or two, but the season Is practically over.
 The season has been very satis- factory to the growers, remuner- ative prices having been received all the way through. The only trouble has been there were not enough berries grown here 10 supply the demand. If Spring dale had had the berries she could have supplied number of wholesale houses with all the berries they needed during our shipping season.
 Van Buren shipped out two cars Tuesday, making total ot 15l cars from that point during the season. It is sald the acreage in that vicinity will be consider ably increased next season.

ROLLER MILL

 by Court.
INSTITUTED BY |. ]. PETROSS

The Springdale Roller mill has been shut down for several weeks, and the prospects now are will remain so for several weeks to come.
 In November of last year J. 5. Ewalt sold the property to J. E. Frost X Son, having purchased 1t previously from l.. D. Petross. In the deal the Brinkham Bank ing Company of Great Bend, Kansas, was given mortgage of s3,ooo on the plant, l.. D. Pet ross held second mortgage Of SS,00O, and ] $. Ewalt vendors s lien for 5, 500. In April Frost & Son closed the mill down and Dr NJ. Bowden was appointed receiver by Chancellor Hum- phreys. The interest on the Petross indebtedness not having been paid, Mr. Petross instituted suit in ehancery court for fore- closure. This matter came up in court Saturday, and we under stand was postponed until the next August term of court, so just what disposition will finally be made ot the property IS not known. It is unfortunate for the town that the mill is idle, and 1t is to be hoped that some settle ment can be arrived at by which operations may be resumed at an early day.
 ]. E. Frost, the owner of the mill, resides in the vicinity of Habberton and IS one of the best men in Washington County. The probabilities are that he will lose considerable in the transaction.

 The Shippers Union has a membership at present of 153. The shares of stock are S25, and each member pays S2.5o on his stock. The affairs of the Union have been managed so judie1ously that there is money i'll the treas ury, and each S2.5 investment is now worth more than SIS. A certain per cent of the sales IS held by the Union to defray ex- penses, and this fund has aeeu- malated until the organization Is able 10 pay cash for it's crates, which are usually purchased i'll December. Growers who are not members of the Union are allowed 10 ship with the Union, Of course subject To the rules and regula- tions governing the organization.
 There have been other organi- cations formed here To market strawberries, but the Shippers Unlon Is about the only one to survive year after year. The Farmers Union is marketing the berries of the members of that organization this year.

YIELDS GOOD RETURNS
 I'D THE GROWER

It IS estimated that there are 1000 acres m strawberries in the vicinity of Sprlngdale. The va rieties most largely grown are Mitchell, Thompson, klondyke and Aroma. The Mitchell is the earliest berry grown here, and while 1t IS not so large as some of the other varieties, It IS an ex- eellent table berry. The Thomp- son and klondyke follow the Mite he'll, and tile late berry IS the Aroma. The Aroma is fast coming into favor here, and promises soon to be the leading berry in this locality. It grows unusually large, Is finely favored and is good shipper, but has not been grown here extensively in the past. With Aroma berries, the growers here could continue right on shipping and command the top prices ii the markets in conpetitiop' with Missouri Der ries. s.a
 The growers in this locality have. gotten better results from plants set in the spring, prefer ably in March, but not later than April. Plants set during these two months will produce good crop of berries the following sea son. It IS figured that the ex- pense of picking and marketing d crate of berries Is 75 cents, and all above that amount received by the grower is counted as profit and expense of cultivation and use of land. About forty crates per acre is the average yield, al- though as high as 125 crates have been grown on one acre, but thiS was an exceptionally good yield.
 There is probably no fruit that yields as quick returns as the strawberry. Some growers in this section have had very good success in putting out plants be- tween young apple trees, thus making their land bring in reven- ue while growing an orchard.
