KEEPING AHEAD OF THE GAME

kEEf1Nd AHEAD Of The dAME
Thomas A. Edison. appearing in his
capacity as head Of the Naval Advisory
Board before the Naval Affairs Com
mittee Of the House, was his usual
searching, unpretentions, human self
revealing even in what might seem q
casual word the broad HORIZONS Of one
whose intellect towers. He is not per-
turbed by any prospective difficulty in
finding men or place for research. PhiIa-
delphia, he thinks, provides as ideal site
for laboratory on Government land.
with an ample labor market at hand.
And as for the scientific and technical
men, let them not pride themselves on
their excessive rarity when they hear
themselves called "muckefs." ~ can
get all the muckers 1 want" It is q
favorite epithet with Mr.. Edison in re-
ferring TO himself, for it applies to any
old fellow who il in the business Of pick
ing up stray facts here and there. Yet
somehow the committee seemed to think
q good deal Of this harmless crank who
says he believes in Cooking far ahead
and getting there ahead of the other
fellow" even though, as he says, he has
only $500. 600 year to spend on expert
ments and il mot q fellow to be COM
pared with Uncle Sam" At any rate,
they passed formal vote of thanks for
his advice and rose and remained stand
ing when he left the room. The hon.
age Of congressional committee is q
phenomenon almost as rare as an Edi-
son. - Pubic LEDGER

Court.

William Prickett, who shot man in
a Riverside hotel recently, waived in
dictment and pleaded guilty on Thurs
day. AS is the usual custom testimony
was taken to determine the degree of the
crime. Thomas Dunn, the man who
was shot, told of the occurrence, how he
was seated at table and how his assail-
ant came up behind him and without a
word of warning fred the shot. The re-
volver was snapped twice before finally
sending out the shot that did the mis-
chief. Dunn said he never had any
trouble with Prickett and had never
been in his company to any extent and
he could not recall anything that would
lead to the act.
The defendant laid the entire trouble
to drink and admitted he had been
under the influence of liquor for some
time. He did not remember a great
many things connected with the shoot
ing and said he did not have any reason
for committing the act. He gave the
names of several persons for whom he
had worked in the past and Judge Lip
pincptt laid the case over for a week to
investigate the mans previous character.
Daisy Evans, of Moorestown, pleaded
not guilty to charge of larceny. She
will be tried by the court this week.
William Cook, of Burlington, pleaded
guilty to assault and battery on his
wife. This was another case of rum get
ting the best of the man. His case was
laid over until Thursday.

Method for Testing Seed c

Method for Testing Seed Corn
The agronomist of the New Jersey
Agricultural Experiment Station sug-
gests the following method for using the
rag doll tester" for testing seed corn.
Tear heavy unbleached muslin in strips
s to 10 inches wide and 40 inches long.
Draw pencil mark along tbs center of
the strip, and draw lines across the strip
IL inches apart. thus making it out
in so blocks 2 IL by inches, making it
possible to test so individual ears
Number the blocks / to so. Place the
cloth in water, wiring out, and spread it
ON table. Number so ears to be tested.
Take 2 kernels from opposite sides of
each ear from each of the following parts
|of the ear-butt, middle, tip, making
Kernels from each ear, and place them
In the squares corresponding in number
to the respective ears. Take q stick
twice the size of lead pencil and using
it as core, wrap up the cloth with the
kernels on it. Secure it with elastic
bands, leave it in a bucket of water 1 to
hours, remove, and allow to drain.
Lay 1t in the bottom of bucket or pan,
place back OF stove, or any place where
the temperature will not fall below 40 or
so degrees F. Cover it with cloth to pre-
vent too rapid drying. In or days
unwrap the doll and examine the ger
minatiOn. Each ear from which any of
the kernels has not terminated should
be discarded.

Random Notes.

While not successful in keeping some
Pennsylvania applicants for license to
sell liquor from getting thair desire, the
opponents scored point when the judge
decided that all places where liquor is
sold must Gloss every night at midnight
and not reopen until eight o'clock the
next morning.
AT the last meeting Of the Board Of
Fresholdsrs resolution was adopted to
rssurface and improve that portion OF
the Camden and Moorestown turnpike
in this county and to improve Church
street, Moorsstown. Engineer Logan
was directed to survey the roads and the
resolution. was put through with the
idea that the expense Of all the work
was to come out of the automobile
money without any cost to the county.
It leaked out that the county and the
township would sach be called upon to
put up some money on this account and
the committee in charge rescinded the
order to survey and the work will be
held up unless the automobile fund can
stand the entire cost.
Another snake has been discovered
in the matter Of building line bridges.
Camden county wants new bridge be-
tween that county and Burlington. The
latter is willing to put in slab bridge
which, tits held, will take care of all the
travel that goes over the structure.
Camden, however, wants to build an
arch bridge that will not only accommo-
date ordinary vehicles but which will
let trolley cars have good passagsway
TO put up such bridge will entail extra
expense and the members of the com.
mittee in charge Of the subject cannot
see why this county should be called
upon TO pay out large sum for the
benefit Of trolley company when the
other kind win meet the requirements
Of the general public. The argument il
advanced that the trolley company will
pay at least $1,000 towards the new
bridge. but experience has shown that it
l. one thing f9f~G trolley company te
promise and 5fher to fulfill the obliga
ton That 1t has been very hard worh
get the money due the county. The
Burlington County Board Of Freeholders
win not be likely to approve the plans o.
Camden county and it ought not to. Il
the trolley company wants . bridge lei
it build one to suit itself. There Is
plenty Of room ct the point in view.
