ways to prepare the cranberry They
range from the common everyday stewed
oranberries to jelied cranberries and
those preserved and made into wine.
Growers declare 100000 bushels Of the
berries will be harvested in New Jersey
alone. That means the crop will be ~
per cent. larger than last year. Most
of the growers have their own ware
houses and hold their harvests until prices
suit them. There are cranberry sales or
ganizations formed along similar lines to
the California fruit growers exchanges
Cranberries can remain in storage four
months during the winter without be-
coming "mushy" and because Of this the
growers can hold their harvest until!
suitable price is reached
The Cape Cod berries are already in
the market at $3.50 a barrel. This is 81
a barrel cheaper than last year. They
are a perishable harvest, however. and
will not last until Christmas, which is
second big day in America for cram
berry sauce.
The connoisseurs choose the FROST
bitten little wild berry for some reason,
but most persons prefer the large ones,
which have been under cultivation for
years.

Swears Doctor Had Many
Soulmates, But Held Him

NEW YORK, Oct. 2S-Mrs. Mary
caspe's husband, DR.. Abram, Caspe, is
an advanced thinker, according to his
own point of view, IL his wife's COM
plaint in a separation suit is in line
with facts.
He is a member of the Socialist party.
but Mrs. Caspe asserts she did not OBJ
ject to the views he entertained until he
began to advocate free love in his own
home, "contending that men are not
hound by any legal restraint from loving
and living with more than one woman
At the same time, that It was altogether
proper for married man to live with
other women II he loved them"
Mrs Caspe, who lives at 60 East 10sth
street, says that her husband explained
that to live with other women than his
wife was at all times proper and moral
for married man so long as 1t was
Sanctioned by love"
Incidentally, Mrs Caspe says that al.
though her husband has an income of
more than 5000 per annum, he appears
to feel no obligation toward his children
and her. She says she pleaded with him
to discard his theories, but that her
pleadlngs did not avail.

and unmarried, and began to neglect the

frankly acknowledged to me, in the pres
ence OF our children. that he loved and
lived with a Mrs. Hoffman and Mrs.
Fabricant and that he no longer loved
me. He held himself altogether blameless
In loving these other women"
The plaintiff states that when she left
her husband with her children he quit
toward her expenses stat
Ing that he had not promised to support
her when he married her.
Doctor Caspe denies his wife's alIeRa-
tion, and says the European conflict has
Injured his practice, which was of the
old school, order, and that It also suf-
'ered as the result of change OF neighbor-
hood conditions on the East Side.
THE practice of the old school phy-
5icians fell off, he says. "and a lot of
'oung men with new and highly unpro-
'essional methods came into the neigh
borhood and took the practice away.

inued Doctor Caspe, that Socialists are |
