ITARY CONDITIONS.

Penns Grove Board of Health has ell
gagged DIR. l. w. Knight, of Somerset, Pa,
az health officer of the Borough. He was
recommended by d. G. Bowen, Chief San
itary State Inspector. Besides being a
graduate in medicine, DIR. Knight has the
degree of Doctor of Public Health, and
WAS formerly with the department. OF
health and charities in Philadelphia.
When interviewed, DR.. Knight said
that it was to soon to give definite infOI-
nation az to the program of work to fol
low. He wished however, to impress up
on the people that a health coInmunit,
was always prosperous, and a prosperous
community, to remain 80. must be healthy.
When asked regarding the notices to
close wells which nave been received by
a number of citizens, he said that the an
alysis of the water from the wells which
we're made by the State Board of Health
showed that a great number of people
who are using wells in the Borough are
drinking practically a diluted sewage.
Altho the water appears and tastes good
it is quite unfit for drinking and is liable
at any time to cause al outbreak OF disease
which would be much more expensive
than procuring a supply of good water.
lie says that the water furnished by
the Penns 3rOve Water Company is ex
amined at frequent intervals by the State
Laboratory and their reports have shown
that quality Of the water to be good.
Some citizens have been summoned to

Tomatoes Wanted.

Now that the crop of tomatoes, which
was the smallest for many years, has be- n
gathered and sold at from ten to fourteen
cents a basket. tanners want prime fruit
at from 20 to 80 cents a basket.
The extremely wet weather from April
until September, which extended along
the entire Atlantic coast, was the most
unfavorable ever known over so long q
period, for the tomato crop. Usually
when the early crop is light the late crop
ends the season with a larger crop than
expected. The crop to be profitable failed
all along the season.
Laat years pack OF tomatoes was so
large that the market for canned fruit has
been low. The failure for fruit to appear
this year late in the season when it dOes
not earlier has apprised the packers that
there will be a scarcity before the next
crop lie grown. 1t may be a good thing
for the growers next year.

or and Council was held Tuesday eve
ming. Mayor Willis presided. Coun-
cilmen Lummis, Holman and DolboW
were present.
w. D. Snyder, the new borough
clerk, acted for the first.
Current bills were ordered paid.
Mrs. Henry Miller appeared before
the Council to ask when the pipe
would be laid from the head of Della
ware avenue to the river so that the
water which flowed from the avenue
when it rains would not Hood her
land. 1t had been promised several
weeks ago. This condition has Deen
caused by the filling of Pitman mead
ow. No time was set for it to be
done, because it is difficult to get lab
orers to do things.
w. P. Denny appeared and asked
that the Council have the ditch clean
ed out which runs from South Broad
street to the river, between the Lock
and Simpkins meadow, because he be-
lieved it would be advantageous to
have the water off the streets and
properties. No action was taken to
drain private properties.
The clerk reported $l53 received
the past week for licenses, mostly for
jitneys.

know that Barney oldfleld never drives
his speed car without a strong Havana
cigar ornating his frontal piece. And you
will admit that you never saw a picture
OF old Pop Geers without his eternal
cigar. oldfield asserts the weed steades
his nerves. Geers says It helps 20 con-
eentrate his mind
But here's something you didn't know,
namely, that Pop smokes his own pat
ent-applied-for brand, and that he never
leaves his southern home in Memphis
without carrying along exactly 1000
weeds. or course, Pop" will consume
more than this number during his cam
paign. and when he does he sends out an
s. o. s. for fresh supply,
It's a fact that the "Grand Old Man
of the harness world II just about as care
full in the selection of his weeds as in
naming his futurity and stake candidates
The cigars are made Of Cuban raised to-
bacco and wholesale at cents apiece
So. 1t will be seen that Pops" cigar bill
Is no small item.
That Pop smokes to good advantage
is evidenced by the money he has won
