Gas Lights To Be Continued.

The fortnightIy meeting of the Mayor
and Council was held last Tuesday night.
All the Councilmen and the Mayor were
present.
Current bills were ordered paid and Street
improvements were discussed.
The ordinance to fix the assessors
salary at $3.50 and the collectors at $3.50,
to take the place of legal fees was finally
passed and appears in another column.
The most important business was the
opening of the bids for street lighting, and
the granting of the contract. The dis
cussion lasted until nearly midnight.
The Penns Grove Electric Light Co.
agreed to furnish 81 Tungsten incandes-
cent lights of so candle power on a five
year contract for $500, a year. Each
added light to be $25 a year. The Co.
did not want the contract to take effect
until April LIST 1918, because the electric
plant is not built.
Messrs. G. R. Holmes, F. R. Bagwell
and S. Rushing Leap represented the Elec-
trio Light Company.
The New Jersey Gas Company, which
now controls the Penns Grove Gas Com
| pany, agreed to furnish 60 or more Wells
bach lamps, Il sample of which is at Main
Street Railroad crossing, for $25 a year
each $500. On a one year coll
tract, they would furnish the new lamps
for $50 a lamp, but would make it $25 if
the contract extended for four years at
the end of the year. They did not care
to make less han a Swear contract. After
much argument the Council decided to
continue the present gas Lighting system
for one year at $25 a light which the
representatives of the Gas Company
agreed to. The lights burn all night ex-
cept five nights near full moon.
The Gas Company was represented by
c. H. Hoy, district manager, and F. Ii.
Treat, superintendent OF construction.

Cranberries Not Abundant

New Jersey cranberries are not so album
dant this year as last, but they are Of a
quality that has never been surpassed.
The short crop and the high quality may
be counted to put the price up a few
notches, particularly in view of the re-
ported shortage in other districts, notably
Rhode Island. The picking of the ber-
ries is at its heigth.
The shortage is due to many causes,
among them late frosts in the spring, UNI
~seasonable rains, the exceptional vigor of
insect pests and the prevalence of plant
diseases. Good berries are selling from
twelve to fifteen cents a quart. Prices
are certain to go higher.
