Special Meeting HeId--To
Increase the Shares.
specta, to the EVENING NEWS.

Port Reading, July ga special
meeting of the Port Reading Build
ing & Loan Association was held In
the Reading building here Thursday
night to enable the stockholders and
officers of the association to get bet
ter acquainted and to suggest ways
and means to further increase the
number of stockholders and shares.
The meeting was a well attended
and enthusiastic one. Reports were
rendered showing earnings Of about
ten per cent the past year. The re-
ports were highly satisfactory to the
investors. especially when they con-
sidered they were of the business
for the first year. The reports show
ed that during the past year expend-
itures in organization and providing
supplies had been considerable.
There are hopes this year that the
results will become greater. The
officers promise to make the Port
Reading Building & Loan Associa-
ton one of the best in the state.

N~EICHBORENG TOWNS
Melted
BY GRAND FAIR
S~pOtSWood Firemen Are Very
Successful Bell Fund.
Special to the EVENING NEWs.

Spotswood, July 22:-Maintain-
ing their reputation made by sue
cessful bazars conducted a number
of years ago, the Enterprise Hook
& Ladder Company, composed en-
tirely of volunteers, held sway here
Thursday night with a magnificent
fair and festival, which netted the
fire ladies a neat little sum for
the bell fund. The gross receipts
were $3.50, but of course there was
considerable expense attached to
the affair.
Dancing, to the strains of a five
piece orchestra, was the principal
attraction and thoroughly enjoyed
by a large number of young people
from this and neighboring towns.
The spacious floor of Whitney Hall,
where the fair and festival were
held, proved to be in excellent con-
dition. A mammoth tent had bean
erected on the lawn adjoining II
hall and under this were served a..
good things that go to make an af-
fair of this kind popular. The
Harp of a Thousand Strings" which
is, in truth, a grab bag, was another
great drawing card.
John Bell, vice president Of the
fire company, was general chair
man. He was materially assisted by
subcommittee and Howard Kelly,
who acted as secretary of the affair.
Prominent amont rose present was
David D. A. Outcalt, of Tacoma,
Wash, who is visiting here for a
few days. Mr.. Outcalt, when a resi-
dent of this place a number of years
ago, was an energetic fireman and
the first president of the company.
1t is the iremen's intention to
buy a fire bell to replace the present
gong, now a memento of other days.
The gong has proved seryiceable in
its time, but the Increased danger
has made an up-tO-date alarm a
necessity. The bell fund was start
ed some time ago and a small sum
raised by popular subscription.

TROUBLE WITH
DOG WARDEN
Justice Mason Appealed to
the Mayor in the Case.
Special to the EVENING NEWS.

special 10 the II ENIN U ~ u VS..
South Amboy, July 22:-The Wis
dom of Councilman Berrien in OBJ
jecting to the appointment of the per
son known about town as Dominic
Leonard" as dog warden, was mani
tested when he and the NEWS or
respondent had some difficulty in ref
renee to a little pet dog belonging
to the correspondents grandson, 1t
might be well for our council to take
into consideration also the wisdom
of holding In leash, after appoint
ment a parsonage of Leonard's men
tai capacity until everything is fully
prepared to turn him loose upon the
public.
There were two reasons that were
predominant In the Justices mind to
avoid trouble on this line which we
give to the public. One was love for
the grandson, and the other to be
a law abiding citizen. AS early as
Monday of this week, Justice Mason
called on the police justice for a tag
and license and was informed that
he had none, that they had been or
dered. Again on Wednesday after
loon he saw the justice and was in
formed that he had received twenty
five tags, but they were all taken al
most as soon as received. This was
on Wednesday afternoon. Business
prevented us from calling for a tag
Thursday, or yesterday morning and
at noon time, as my daughter was
coming home, she brought the little
dog along to prevent him getting at
large on the street until he could
legally appear there alone, when this
dog hoodlum seized him. My daugh-
ter made the statement to him what
l had done and as it was nearly op-
posite the police Justices Office, he
told him the license was all right
and to release the dog. The daugh-
ter appealed to her father, the squire,
who in turn, proceeded to the may
or's place of business, to have him
counsel the warden what to do. Then
the warden got fresh with his tongue.
This was all the difficulty except he
intended to bully the mayor which
failed, as the mayor compelled him
to return the dog. Thus we hope
that our council will be fully prepar-
ed that all persons may be able to
comply with the ordinance before
turning loose upon the community
a person of Leonard's calibre.

Woodbridge, July 22:-Notwith-
standing the unsettled condition OF
the weather The Country Fair, given
last evening by the C. E. society of
the Presbyterian church was largely
attended, and proved a decided sue
cess, socially and financially.
AS the weather seemed so uncer-
tain, the tables and booths had been
arranged in the Parish House,
instead of on the lawn as at first
intended. The house was prettily
lighted with japanese lanterns the
tables and booths decorated with va
rious colored crepe paper and cheese
cloth and were presided over as fol

get, Alexander Wand; side show,

The doll show was perhaps the
leading attraction of the fair. A
large number of dolls of all sizes and
descriptions had been entered, as
well as many antique ones, some as
far back as 1903.
Miss Mary Prall received the lar
gest number of votes and got first
prize for the dolls. Miss Marian
Breckenridge was second. A neat
sum was realized which will be do
| mated to the Parish House fund.

Subsequent to the spraying season,
time should be taken to prepare the
spraying machinery for efficient work
Or course the variety of the equipment
will be confined more or less accord
ing to the dimensions of the orchard.
Barrel pumps are desirable in or
chards of from two to five acres. II
extra help and labor-saving equipment
Is available, they may be used in 10
acre orchards. Orchards in full bear
ing cannot be sprayed efficiently with
knapsack or bucket pumps. Large
size barrel pumps are recommended
where more than two barrels of mate
rial are needed to make an applica-
ton. The pressure must be generated
and maintained easily when the pump
IS in operation. This is one of the
tests of good pump.
Clean and oil working parts before
and after each application.
Examine strainer on pump and re-
place when worn.
Keep a catalogue of numbered parts.
Do not allow the cylindeG to leak.
but replace the packing when needed.
Do not allow pump to stand in mix
lures when not in use.
Use leads OF hose about 20 feet in
length. Ordinary hose used for lawn
sprinkling is not desirable; get five
or seyen-ply one-half-iuch spray hose,
guaranteed to stand $50 pounds pres
sure. This hose Is usually made up
as ordered by firms who manufacture
mechanical rubber goods. In connec-
ton with the hose, bamboo extern
