A man who owns a little place
u miles out of a large city told
the writer the other day that 1t had
become practically impossible for
him to do any fruit raising. Every
Sunday at this time OF the year
gangs of strollers roam over his
land, breaking fences and tipping
over walls. They shake fruit trees
and feast on berry bushes.
Many of them bring bags in
which they stow away all the ap-
plies, pears or plums they car carry.
Public sentiment mas 2!wavs toll
Grated this minor theiving. Sue
cessful business men and politicians
rather like to tell how they used
to rob orchards when boys. There
is some feeling that they would
have been molly cOddles if they
hadn't. While these older men
probably never got out with bags
and peddled the product thereof,
the one thing leads to the other.
The station master in the employ
of a certain r4ilroad told the writ
er a short time ago that when a
college athletic team went through
he always locked up everything
loose in the way Of restaurant sill
ar. Many college students feel
that a room shows nc character or
originality, unless decorated by
signs stolen from some ones place
of business.
A fruit orchard means some ones
thought and labor for years. If
fruit raising must be abandoned in
any locality near a city or large
town, it becomes more costly to
keep orchards and gardens. Law
abiding people have to pey the
bills, in order that the hoOdlums
may feed and feast free.
There is morally and economical
ly no difference between knocking
a dollars worth Of fruit off a tree,
and stealing a dollar bill out OF
some ones cash drawer, and the
courts should impose the same
penalty.
