MOST WIN

There was but little contest for
City Council in this city and John H.
Evans and George w. Most were cas-
ily elected.
Evans ran particularly strong, car
rylng every voting precinct in the
city by most flattering vote. With
the exception of David M. Bowen,
City Treasurer, who had no opposi-
ton, Mr.. Evans had the largest total
vote of anybody on the ticket from
President down.
Most had very good vote and was
easily elected.
The total vote of the candidates for
City Council follows:
Evans .................1 1929
MOSt .1272
Mailer 1902
IayIof ................ 729
This gives Evans plurality of
733, and Most, 1870.

sufficient reason be given for the final
action, and this reason should not be
in the form of rumors but actual
facts should be given enough public
lty to enable those who are charged,
to defend their reputation in ar
equally public manner. Thousands
of farmers have been anxious for a.
South Jersey Station, and all over
the State it has been admitted that a
Station to be of the greatest value
should be located on soil differing
from that at New Brunswick"

STATE FARM
IS ALL OFF
The Appropriation Lapsed
Without Purchase.
LONG DELAY.
If Farm IN South Jersey Is Ever
Purchased, There 1ust Be a
New ApprOpr alton.

South Jersey will not have a state
experimental farm this year. The
proposed purchase of the Mcfarland
farm at Monroeville is off for good,
and the $4,000 appropriation has
lapSed
Should there be further effort to es-
tablish the farm in South Jersey, the
Legislature must appropriate the mon
ey again, and if that should be done,
it would not be available until the
first day of next November
In speaking of this matter the Ell
mer Times says:
Late development indicate that
South Jersey is not to have an EX-,
pertinent Station this year and per-
haps not for many years to come. 1t
was supposed that when majority
purchase the Monroevill:e farm early
this year, that the matter was settled.
There was a considerable period of
delay however, before search of the
title was made and that was appar-
emily done half heartedly and piece
meal and there were persistent ru-
mors that enough stumbling-blocks
would be put in the way to pre-
vent the acquisition of the property
before the appropriation lapsed back
into the general State fund on No
yember first of this year.
Last spring, ]. Earl MacFarland
sold his personal property from the
big farm at Monroeville, but under
instructions from the State Board,
took care of the crop of hay, but no
crops were planted this year
Unfortunate the fight to sell prop
critics to the State for the Branch Elk
pertinent Station site, waxed bitter.
Certain of the Gloucester county ad-
vocates were utterly opposed to eth
er the Monroeville or Finley site, and
the Finley advocates went against
Glassboro site, preferring if they
could not win for the site near
Bridgeton, to accept Monroeville as =
compromise and thus it happened
that the latter site was chosen
During the early days of the fight
rumors of crooked work in connec-
ton with the selling of land to the
State were freely discussed and each
site was about equally smirched in
the charges and counter charges. The
sincere advocates of the various sites
who gave much time working for the
site of their choice, were not greatly
influenced by the ugly rumors be-
cause they were aware that in such
fights, such charges are to be expect

after the expense the State Board
of Agriculture has gone to, and the
inconvenience and large loss to the

LARGE SUMS
WERE BET

In the aggregate probably five or six
thousand dollars were wagered in
Bridgeton upon the election. In one
place here more than $4,000 was placed,
and put in the hands of stake holdersl
Most of the betting was even money.
Generally the betting was upon the
National ticket, but there was some
money placed upon the Gubernatorial
election.

not always do all the crops come up |
20 that high standard, although with
irrigation the crop is pretty sure.
There are now $50 acres under irriga-
ton, the water for which is pumped
from the running stream direct to the
helds and is no doubt more beneficial
that colder water pumped from deep
wells. A big so horsepower engine
that throws 1000 gallons a minute is
the main-stay for irrigation purposes.
although there is a $50 horsepower
and traction motor held in reserve
for emergencies. Not always is the
irrigation needed, but sometimes in
wet seasons when a week or two of
dry weather comes the irrigation plant
saves the whole crop. There is a ma
chine shop and a tool room connect
ed with the plant and a big wash
room where beets, carrots, ltttuce.
radishes and all other vegetables are
scrubbed before going to market.
The Journal scribe asked for the
big things that were done and learned
that the biggest shipment was 1000
packages in one day, and another big
day was five carloads of produce. The
shipping is done from Woodruff's sta
ton, ON the Central Railroad, and the
New York market is found to be the
best. Boxes they bought by the car
load in the fiat and put together in
the factory. Baskets come by the
car load and everything is done on
the same large scale. Twenty-six
horses are used to do the plowing,
cultivating and drawing Of the potato
diggers and other farm machinery. A
machine found to be valuable is a po-
tato sorter which baskets the pota-
toes in three sizes.
To sum up the big things, several
might be mentioned in recapitulation
as follows
Four hundred and three acre farm,
mostly rich soil.
Fifty acres of strawberries growing
for next year.
Fifty acres of lettuce growing and
being cut now.
One hundred acres early potatoes
of good yield.
Sixty acres of late potatoes with
out irrigation.
Fifteen acres of celery that look
fine.
Several acres of beets, some for
canning purposes.
Thirty-six acres of rhubarb.
Three acres of Chinese cabbage, an
unusual sight.
Two acres of parsley.
Several acres of leeks
Several acres of French endive.
Several acres of spinach.
Farming 40 or so acres outside.
Several acres of carrots.
Three hundred tons of fertilizer per
year.
Boxes and baskets by carload
Twenty-siX head of horses.
Biggest shipment, 1900 packages in
one day.
Everything scrubbed for market.
Best yield of potatoes was $50 bas-
kets to acre.
Two and three crops year on some
land.
Six greenhouses, so by 800 feet.
Cucumbers by the thousand.
One hundred wOrkmen.
One hundred and fifty acres irrigat-
ed land.
Stream of running water.

Owing to Misunderstanding as
to the time set for the opening of

at 3 O'Clock yesterday was not so
large as it might have been, but
last night there was a large crowd
present TO hear the Hungarian or

to the fullest extent.
George G. AydeIott was the open

him were SO well pleased they told
their friends about it and then they
regretted very much that they were
not apprised of the opening hour.
This lecture contains theIire and the
optimism that makes it most APP

is pleasing speaker and he brings
message that Is worth while.
The evening performance came
up to the fullest expectations of all

The orchestra is composed OF
seven of the best musicians to be

pealed so to the younger folks that
he was recalled several times.

John Mckay Missing.

John Mckay who has been fish
ing with Abe Falkner at Susie Is-
land has been missing for about
three weeks and it is feared that he
is drowned.
Mr.. Mckay and Mr.. Falkners
were fishing on partnership
basis until about three weeks ago
when they decided to separate and
Mr.. Mckay packed up his belong
ings and started for his own island
some distance away. He has not
been seen since and the skiH has
not been found anywhere in the
nelghborhood. 1t seems that Mr..
Mckay was going to lift couple
of nets on his way to his own home
and we are informed that one of the
nets was quite hard to handle on ac-
count Of the current or the way it
was set. Mr.. Falkner Is OF the
opinion that while lifting these nets
he made a mlsstep and fell over
board and was drowned.
Up to a short time ago the peo-
ple in that locality thought that he
might have gone up to the Pigeon
River Camps as he sometimes did,
but Mr.. Peter Grant, of the Pigeon
River Go, came down two or three
days ago to see Mr.. Mckay about
some fish he had contracted to sun.
ply to the Company for their camps
and he disposed of that theory as he
had been all over their camps.
Mr.. Mckay has been a resident
of Cook county for fifteen years,
coming to Grand Portage to take
the position of government farmer
under former Indian agent, S. w.
Campbell. He held that position
until about five years ago when he
moved over to an Island further
east and started fishing which has
been his occupation ever since. He

our farmers and feel that with the
matter in their hands it will be
