NEWARK DEFEATS MADNESS

Last Saturday the Newark High School defeated Magness by a score of 30 to II.
 At first it seemed as if the Mag ness boys were going to give New ark close game, as they made four scores in the first inning. This was somewhat discouraging to the Newark boys, but when they went to the bat they made. five scores, almost putting the big pitcher Brooks up in the air. The balance of the game was a walkoVer for Newark. The line up was:

PROFIT IN STRAWBERRIES
Judsonia Will Get SIPS, ,OOO For
 This Seasons Crop

Editor The Journal:-I don't hear enough talk about strawber- ries. Perhaps the people who have put out straw berries this spring are working and not talking, which, as a rule, is a mighty good plan. But there are some things that ought to be talked, as we'll as work ed, and the fruit growing industry here at Newark is one of those things, because It is yet more or less of an experiment with the peo- pie of this community, and every one, business and professional men included, should do and say every thing possible to encourage and advertise every move to the advancement of this industry.
 As for myself, 1t is no experi- ment-I know what 1t will do.
 1 have heard 1t suggested by one or two that if so many people go to raising strawberries they would not be worth anything. Don't get that idea into your head, for the demand for strawberries, as we'll as other small fruits, is in- creasing much faster than the pro- duction. This is proven by the fact that ten years ago, when there were not one-half the berries grown there is now, the grow CTS thought they were doing pretty we'll if they received an average of $1 crate for their berries, while now, and for the past two or three years, they have been getting an average of $2 per crate. That doesn't look much like over pro- duction, does itl 1 should say not.
 You will always find a market for your berries. Or, rather, the market will find you, when it is once established that berries are being raised here. And you need not be afraid of raising too many.
 Judsonia will ship this this sea son somewhere between 125 and 150 cars. Say they ship only 125 cars; 500 cases to the car would be 62,5 ,500 cases, and at S2 per case they will bring $125, 900 into that community.
 The growers pay IS cents case for picking these berries, which, on this 62, 300 cases, will amount to $30,000 paid out to people who, as rule, are not making anything at this season of the year, as most of the berries are picked by wom- en and children.
 These berries are being produc- ed on 1000 acres of land, so you see they are averaging S125 per acre, and on poor land, too.

The grocer got mad and licked the barber, breaking his nose and otherwise disfguring him so that he was compelled to call upon the doctor, who charged him a ten for the services rendered. The next day the barber met the editor on the street and thre w@a brick at him, giving him a close shave. In this effort to get away the pencil pusher fell down, tear. ing his trousers on the west side so badly that he had to buy new pair; and the editorial shears that were in his hip pocket penetraten his anatomy so that the services of surgeon were required.
