FROST SHRIVELS PLANTS
John Bartram, the Evening Ledger
Gardening Expert, "Makes Good"
on His Prediction

A severe frost shrlveed tomato plants,
egg plants and other sensitive plants early
this morning. IL was unusually severe in
the suburbs, especially in Darby.
The outstanding feature of the frost was
that it was predicted by John Bartram, the
widely-known writer on gardens i'm the
EVENING LEDGER, whose home is in Darby.
on May 8 he advised against planting to-
matoes and other tender vegetables, pre-
dieting sharp frost between May 10 and
May 20"
Asked how he knew there would be frost
today, Mr., Bartram replied: THE accumu-
lated weather wisdom OF my distinguished
botanical family is better than the trained
onions of Simeon Alokemacher and the
trained statistics Of Prof willis L. Moore.
To the eldest son of the eldest son of the
eldest son unto the seventh generation born
in the same house is NOuehsafed a sureness
of weather eye not granted ordinary NOR
tails"
The Bartram system will not be made
public, he said because he is sensitive to
rldicue and fears mockery at the hands of
the irreyerent modern generation.

PRESENT DEMAND FOR COTTON
YARNS IL UNUSUALLY SMALL
Leather Market Is Strong and Shoes

There Is less demand for cotton yarns
now than for four months, according to
Dun's weekly trade review This is be-
lieved to be but temporary. as most manu-
facturers appear to be we'll supplied with
raw material, the report asserts. Prices
are generally strong and it is the impress
sion that the mariSe; "ill remain high for
some time.
There has been but little change In the
wool market for some weeks past; most
dealers at the present time report trade
quiet prices well-maintalned on all desir-
able grades and lowering in prices is not
looked forward to for some time to come.
The local mills report that they are we'll
supplied with orders and working to their
full capacity.
Production of iron and steel and of fin
ished products in those lines continues to be
carried on energetically. and plants are re-
ported working to full capacity and with
good orders ahead for several months. Rail-
roads are reported to be heavy buyers for
motive power and also quite active for
structural steel in connection with bridge
work.
The stove trade is quiet. The leather
market continues strong and prices are firm.
Glazed kid dealers report sales active and
good prices prevailing. Stocks are sold
up and there is Il shortage of all grades.
Shoe dealers report q good trade, but con-
siderable difficulty in obtaining shoes.
The lumber trade continues to be affected
adversely by the embargo situation. No
change is noted in the hardware line. busi-
ness continues active and demand for some
goods is limited only by supply.
In the coal trade the most worthy fea-
ture was the raising of the price of anthra-
cite coal by one of the leading operators
