SOLEBURY CLUB
TALKS FARMING
Members Journeyed to Doylestown
to Meet With MIR. and Mrs.
Hugh B. Eastburn.
MANY SUBJECTS ARE DISCUSSED

An interesting meeting of the
Solebury Farmers Club was held at
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Hugh B.
Eastburn, Doylestown, last Satur-
day, according to the Doylestown
Intelligencer.
In the absence of the president,
William w. Hurley was chosen to
act. After the reading of the min
utes the regular business of the club
was transacted.
William w. Hurley said that both
producer and consumer would be
interested in the action of the Phila-
delphia Board of Health as to ster-
ilization of milk.
The milk on the farms must be
reduced to a temperature of SO de-
grees and then taken to the city.
Their plans, however are not fully
perfected.
This gave rise to quite an ami
mated discussion as to milk con-
ditions right in Doylestown in which
a great number entered, visitors of
the club as we'll as members.
Mr.. Hurley also said that he
thought the price of COWS to be a
benefit rather than a detriment to
the business of the farmers if they
raise their own COWS and not buy.
Farmer Senator Hampton w.
Rice reported an increase of about
four cents on corn, an advance of
about two cents on wheat; oats how
ever, remains about the same.
Edward M. Paxson prophesied a
good crop of apples and peaches for
the coming year.
Hugh B. Eastburn gave re-
port regarding the amount of crops
in various counties of the United
States, and gave statistics OF
amount raised and money realized
in the first eight counties. Lam
caster county ranks second in pro-
duction of crops, Bucks county,
however, is not in the first eight.
Mrs. Achsah L. Hurley spoke of
the difference in bought and home
made clothing. She said you would
pay one dollar for a house dress
ready made, whereas you could buy
enough material for eighty-five
cents to make two.
Mrs. Rebecca R. Lear said in
order to clean piano keys dampen a
cloth with alcohol and rub them thus
removing all yellow stains.
Also to remove stains from alumni
mum cooking utensils dissolve four
tablespoonful of oxalic acid crystals
in a gallon of water. Let this boil in
the dishes for five minutes.

CURFEW AND
FLIES SWATTED
Lambertville City Council Handles
Ordinances Aimed Against
: Each of These.
HOLDS INTERESTING SESSION

Although having had but couple
of weeks trial, the new curfew
ordinance is to be shelved by the
Lambertville city council, according
ia a repeating measure introduced
Monday night by President MCGOWAN
Councilman Fisher made amotion
that the repeater, be laid upon the
table, but he was overruled.
Councilman Oblinger favored the
repeater, and Councilman Foltz
opposed it, both making short
speeches on the subject.
Both Mr.. Fisher and Mr. Foltz
declared that it should, at least, be
given a trial before condemning it,
but on a vote it was passed on title,
Messrs. Banchoff, Mongon, MCGOWAN
Oblinger and Reading voting for it,
and Messrs. Fisher, Foltz, John and
Holcombe voting against it.
1t will come up at the May meet
ing on final passage, and it is ex-
pected that there will be some live
ly opposition from the interested
citizens of the city. Councilman
Reading formerly voted for the
curfew, and it is the changing of
his vote that gives the opponents
an opportunity.
TO REGULATE MANURE PILES
Council is going to swat the people
that harbor breeding places for flies,
so that there will be less swatting
of the flies themselves.
An ordinance was introduced to
regulate the keeping of manure
piles withen the city limits, and it
will undoubtedly pass at the May
meeting,
Mayor Morse, who was present,
said he would gladly approve the
measure if it reached his desk.
1t was particularly noticeable,
last summer, that those stables
which kept the manure covered and
in comparatively small quantities,
were practically free from flies, so
the city is going to require all to do
what part of the people have
already found it easy to do.
BAND CONCERTS
Free band concerts will be en-
joyed by the people in the city of
Lambertville this summer, the city
council having donated $50 for that
purpose to the Citizens Band of Lam
bertville and New Hope.
They will soon be decked out in
new uniforms, and promise to see to
it that the local people are not
kept wanting for music,
Policeman Meehan reported &c
lights out and one arrest; Policeman
The Lambertville record. [volume] (Lambertville, N.J.) 1872-1968, 1914-04-09

Lynch 8 lights out and six arrests;
Policeman Huselton, 3 lights out
and four arrests. Lynch and Meehan
are to have new uniforms, furnished
by the city. Huselton already has
a new one, so none will be purchas-
ed for him at present.
NEW OILING MACHINE
A combined street sweeper. street
sprinkler and street oiling wagon
is to be purchased, if the
street committee approves the
action at a special meeting they
are to hold.
The new machine is to be the
product of the Austin Weston Road
Machine Company, and will cost
about $500.
The city spent this much money
for oiling of the streets last summer,
aside from the oil itself, so it will
about pay for itself in one season.
Justice of the Peace William
Lyman found some difficulty in col
lecting fines imposed during March,
according to a report submitted to
the Lambertville council Monday
evening. Out of $43.75 fines i'm
posed, only $3.50 were collected,
the others being unable or unwill-
ing to pay, so they had to be locked
up.
On petition of a third ward citi-
zen, Councilman G. j. Fisher was
ordered to rebuild the sidewalk
along his property at Union and
Buttonwood Streets within thirty
days. There are lots of citizens
whose walks are in worse condition,
or who have built none at all, but
no written complaint has been filed
against them, so the council could
take no action except against Mr..
Fisher.
Chief Arnett, of the Fire Depart
ment, wants six rubber coats and
some hose for filing gasolene tanks.
South Main Street will be re-
surfaced from Swan to Mount Hope
street.
The taxes of Mrs. Howard Pid-
cock, which are alleged to be dis
crimatory, will be adjusted.
The following bills were ordered
paid:

MICHIGAN.

Lansing, Mich, Nov. 3.-Due to
slow counting, only 1872 out OF 2,l32
precincts in the state were in late to-
night. They showed that Gov. Wood
bridge N. Ferris, democrat. had a lead
of about 5000 over Chase S. Osborn,
his republican opponent, and it is be-
lieved Ferris plurality will be IN
creased as later returns are received.
The vote in SO far shows Ferris,
1O,963; Osborn, 1914; Pattengill, pro-
gressive, 2,O56.
There is a possibility, however, that
the upper peninsula will come to Os-
born's rescue. 1t is expected Detroit
will return heavy plurality for Fer
ris. The early count indicated that
the democratic governor would have
at least 10000 plurality in Wayne
county.
However, if the final returns show
that Osborn has been defeated, there
is apparently little danger that the
republican state ticket will go down
to defeat Early returns indicated
that there was comparatively little
cutting below governor.
In practically every precinct the Ma
tional progressive vote has dwindled
far below the estimates of the Bull
Moose leaders, and the progressives
will be poor third in all sections OF
the state.
It is believed that practically every
republican candidate for congress,
with the exception of the First dis
trict, will be elected.
Early indications show big gain in
both branches of the legislature for
the republicans.
