this part Of Warren county, in the
great buckwheat belt OF New Jersey, is
losing it's popularity as an article of
diet. The increasing growing indif-
ference to this once favorite item OF
the daily bill OF fare is shown by the
small demand for this falls large crop.
Dependent millers attribute this con.
dition to the fact that the custom Of

ing and six days out Of the week is
fast dying out.
"Buckwheat cakes are not as popu-
lar as they once were," said one OF
the overstocked millers today. Good,
old-fashioned appetites are things Of
the past, If one Is to Judge from the
in our own section, where
a mans standing in the community
was once reckoned by the number of
buckwheat cakes he could get away
with. Breakfast foods, canned soups
and similar inventions have had a lot
to do with the decline OF the buck
wheat cake.
Let me give some instances. There
is a German valley farmer | know
who used to eat from thirty-seven TO
buckwheat cakes each morn
ing. Now he seldom eats more than
twenty. My nephew in Port Golden,
who was always rather delicate, for
merly ate about thirty a day, but his
wife told mine that out of a batch of
twenty nine she made a few days ago
there were six left on the plate. The
same ratio prevails everywhere. and IL

SUNDAY STOPPED MATCH
Tremblay Threw somerville Once
and End Bout Ended at Midnight

Rutland. April 5.--Eugene Trem-
blay of Montreal met Bob Somerville
of Rutland on the wrestling mat be-
fore 500 people here Saturday night.
to defend the Police Gazette silver
lightweight championship belt which
the Canadian holds. 1t was the OPP
inion OF majority OF the spectators
that only the advent of Sunday morn
ing saved Someryille from the de-
feat as Referee Eli Bourdeau stopped
the match at twelve o'clock when
Tremblay had secured one fall.
Tremblay equalled Somerville In
science and had the advantage OF SUI
perior strength. He broke with ease
Somerville's famous holds which have
downed so many men here this sea-
son and finally put the Rutland mans
shoulders to the mat in sc minutes on
a toe and neck lock hold. No wrest-
ling that could compare with last
nights for fast work has been seen
here this season.
Tremblay was dissatisfied when
the referee stopped the wrestling at
twelve o'clock and Somerville stated
that he was willing to give the Can
adam the match but Bordeau would
not change his decision.

Bethel Granite Men Go Back tc
Work.

Bethel, April 5.-An agreement
was reached Saturday between the
Bethel branch of the Quarry Work
ers union and the owners of the
quarries here. by which the men re-
turned to work Monday morning,
having been idle since February rs,
when the former agreement expired.
Eighty men were employed at that
time.
The new agreement which the Z.
B. Ellis company signed Saturday
and the Woodbury. company agreed
to sign before work time Monday Is
for five years and differs. from the
former four years agreement in nam
ing minimum instead OF average
wages In general the men will re-
ceive under the new agreement an In
crease OF 16 cents a day the first
year, "a cents the next two years
and 25 cents the last two years. An
other point gained is that when a
man is discharged he must be paid
by a check instead of due bill, the
latter not having been In all cases

result is compromise. both sides

editor of Shields Magazine in addit.
ion TO being one OF the foremost au-
thorities on American outdoor life.
delivers lecture in the Y. M. G. A.
auditorium Friday night.
Mr. Shields Is an enthusiast on the
subject of the conservation Of wild
animal life on the continent, espec-
tally as II relates to birds, the small
er animals and all the wild life with
the possible exception of some which
may be inimical to man.
He introduced a recent lecture
with a few remarks about the value
of birds from the purely utilization
standpoint Of their value in extermi.
mating pests which menace crops. He
said that these pests of various sorts
and fruits each year to the value of
inflict damage to the crops Of grain
$S00,000,000 sum which he spoke Of
as one incomprehensible to the aver
age human mind.
The boil weeyil. with its $50 000,-
900 damage, the potato bug with its
$I5,000,000 damage and the apple
worm with its damage OF from ST.
100000 to 100000 to each state
which raises apples, were cited as
examples of the loss coming from
pests which have grown and flourish
ed since the birds who live upon the
pests, and destroy them, have been
driven away or killed.
The speaker demonstrated how the
quail, the prairie chicken and the
other wild fowl seek these pests be-
cause they eat and thrive upon them
and how, in the destruction of the
game birds, the balance OF nature has
been destroyed and the farmer, the
fruit grower and the gardener pays
the heavy price.
Following the portion OF the lee
ture devoted to birds which was pro
fusely Illustrated with pictures from
actual photographs, the speaker
branched off into the forms of wild
animal life and showed many views
OF mountain goats, mountain lions
bears of all sorts. elk, moose, antel
ope, buffalo, and every kind OF game

photographs having been obtained il

expense Of infinite patience and per
severance.
