No Call for Baby Carriages.

From the Daily Consular and Trade Reports
Only about 100 baby carriages are sold
yearly in Smyrna, imported mainly from
England. France. and Germany. They
are considered of inferior make. and tn.
retail price ranges from IS to SIS. The
city itself and the suburbs are roughly
paved with stones of various sizes, after
the Turkish fasion, rendering the use of
baby carriages nearly impossible and pre-
venting any developing of this trade.
Infants are taken out Of doors by nurses.
who carry them about through the streets
Poor families hire very young nurses,
and one often sees little girls carrying
children nearly as large as themselves.
Dealers here prefer to order baby cal
riages through European commission men
or agents, who, when packing, can fill
the hoods and bodies with other goods.
The collapsible go-cart is an article prac-
tically unknown on this market.

OF drama also. Some of these same boys
return home gaunt and worn and ragged,
some Of them with an empty sleeve,
some not at all. Entire neighborhoods
and families are divided against them
selves, and brother rises against brother.
This is the story of peace-loving. fight
ing, old Vonnor, and of his two gallant
sons, Jonathan and David" just John and
Dave sometimes David and Goliath;
of a rebel woman" Evelyn. and of the
wreck that war made of their lives and
rustic home. 1t would be better IL parts
of the story had been .curtailed, for oc-
casionally it is a-sentimental; but 1t
is story with a favor that will linger
In the memory.

llthumpian-- Farmer Has
Freak Tree

special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.
MILFORD. Sept. 4-several hun
dred friends of Mr. and Mrs. John E.
Mayhem, who quietly slipped away on
Sunday evening and were married.
serenaded them in old fashioned style
Monday evening. The serenaders se-
cured the Milford Band, of which the
groom has long been a member, and
armed with all kinds of noise-produc-
lg implements marched to the house,
where they INDUCED in rounds of
noise-making.
The heavy rain, which passed
over this section Monday night, has
done thousands of dollars worth of
good to crops.
Thomas Johns, a farmer Of near
Lincoln, has a large tree, which is
proving of much interest to his
friends. A few years ogo John de-
cided that he would graft several diff
ferent kinds of buds of fruit on this
tree, an old apple He placed ounce,
pear apple and peach on the tree. As
result he is now picking ounces
from the tree. while many late apples
and pears are growing on the came
tree The peach bud did not grow.
Farmers in the vicinity of Milford
are not so sure of a large crop Of
tomatoes as they were a few weeks
ago. While the factories here have
been open for over a week, there has
been no day yet that they have been
compelled to run all day to get the
supply canned.
