to do it were all the same and that
he would have to pay a fine Of 10
shillings OF 60 to Jail for ten days.
The boy, not having the money, was
allowed to 60 and get it from a
friend. In little while he was seen
standing in the court, and when
asked if he had. got the money to
pay his fine he answered:

Blackstone, who was a good deal Of
a legal authority in his day, gives as
his definition "a place where JUS

Florence.

A slick swindler struck this town on
Thursday. He represented himself as
being contractor at Roebling and came
from that village. He visited the houses
around Florence Heights and told the
residents there he had number of horses
and would like to cut away the grass
around their places without any cost
attached.
After obtaining their consent he went
away and returned with several Hun
garians and put them to work on the
promise of paying them 81 per day.
In the meantime he learned that the
men carried some money with them in
amounts ranging from two to fifty dollars,
which he contrived to secure under the
promise of paying them a large interest
for the use of 1t for two days. After
securing about hundred dollars, he left
on the pretense of going back on another
street. The street must have been pretty
well back as he has not yet returned and
the men now mourn the loss of their hard
earned dollars.
He represented to the men he fieeced
that he was the owner of the Lucas and
Sullivan properties. After the men found
their money was gone they thought he
was probably hiding in one of the nearby
houses and made it very unpleasant fol
the occupants for awhile.
John g. Lucas was called into the game
and after considerable difficulty was sue
cessful In making them understand the
situation, but was unable to get them tc
leave until he threatened to have then
arrested.

Horticultnrists Meet.

A meeting of the New Jersey Horticul
tural Society was held on Wednesday OF
the large farm of Horace Roberts, neal
! Moorestown.
| There was an informal discussion or
the raising of fruits. 1t was the genera
consensus OF the growers present for early
peaches the Carmen proved the best and
most satisfactory.
Barton Brothers, the Burlington county
peach kings" who are reported to have
cleared $4,000 on this crop last year,
were among the horticulturists.
An exhibit was made of the new Pan
American strawberry, which was asserted
will bear fruit from June until September.
Benjamin Lippincott, a cherry grower
of Cinnaminson, said cherries were all
that could be desired, and J. Lawrence
Lippincott, of Riverton, thought that he
had added $500 to the market value of
his cherry crop by the liberal use of pyrox,
which he used in spray form three times
during the season.
apples and pears, near Merchantville, was
well satisfied with his crop outlook.
Arthur ]. Collins, of Moorestown, after
some persuasion, stated that he had this
season cleared about $1,000 an acre on
gooseberries. "Of course, it was an ex-
ception, and ! don't expect 1t to happen
again in lifetime" he said.
Albert Repp and ex-senator G. Fleming
Stanger, of Glassboro, were much pleased
with the outlook for peaches, and Profess
sor Blake. of the New Jersey Experimental
station, gave scientific talk on the value
Of the self boiled lime and sulphur mix

Raising three crops on one piece of
ground has been successfully accomplish
ed by Horace Roberts, who gathers straw

acres.
Among those present were: Franklin

seventeen-Year Locusts.

The New Jersey Agricultural Expert
ment station issued the following bulletin
yesterday;
Brood IL. of the periodical Cicada, or,
as 1t Is better known, the "17-year Locust"
appeared in New Jersey in 1894, and is
due to appear again In 1911. According
to the records gathered in 1894 the brood
covers practically all of Bergen county,
scattered areas in Passaic county, small
areas near Huntsburg and Papakating In
Sussex county. practically all of Morris,
Union, Essex and Hudson counties, few
areas In Mercer county. irregular areas
all over Middlesex county, scattering
points In the eastern part of Monmouth
county, small patches In Ocean and Bur-
lington counties, Pensauken and vicinity
In Camden county, scattering sections at
the southwestern part of Gloucester and
Salem counties, irregular areas through
out Atlantic and Cumberland counties,
and all the wooded sections in the Cape
May peninsula. There is, therefore, no
county entirely free from the insects; but
they do not approach the Delaware river
closely except in Camden county, and, in
general way, may be said to be most
abundant In the eastern half of the State.
The insects will appear during the last
throughout June; disappearing by the end
of the month. The injury is done by the
females in laying the eggs in twigs and
branches, making Sits that do not heal.
These result In the ultimate death beyond
the point of injury of every punctured
branch less than one-half an inch in dia-
meter, and, where there are many pune
lures on the trunks of small trees or on
branches up to three-quarter inch, these
are apt to be seriously injured or killed.
Farmers, fruit-growers and others who
contemplate setting out trees or shrubs
during the fall OF 1870 or spring of 1911,
In the infested areas, are warned of the
danger of injury from these Cicadas. If
trees or shrubs must be set, put out either
very small trees and cut back severely, so
as not to offer attractions to the insects,
or set large trees NTH many branches and
cut back no more than absolutely neces-
sarY until after July let. so as to offer the
insects chance to oviposit in wood that
can be spared. Burn all the cut infested
wood.
| In established, young orchards or other
plantations, do not prune more than me-
cessarY, so as to distribute any injury
that may be caused. On large trees no
appreciate injury will be noted, but
there may be serious cutting of the crops
borne on small shoots and branches There
is no way OF poisoning the insects for they
do practically no feeding, and 1t Is not in
the least dangerous to handle them. All
insectivorous birds feed freely on these
Cicadas, and SO does the ordinary farm
poultry Of all kinds. Sparrows take a
malicious delight in tearing them to
pieces, and little damage need be expected
where these birds occur in large numbers.
| The undersigned will be grateful for all
information as to the places where the
insects appear.

Entomologist.
