FRUIT GROWERS.
Ne Reason Why They Should Not
 Make Lime Sulphur at Home.


 There is no reason why fruit-grow- CTS in different communities should not pool their demands for lime sul- phur and employ one of their members to make the community's supply Lime sulphur can be very easily made by one who understands the matter, es- pecially where they have live steam. Cooking by live steam seems to make better product. more easily done, and more satisfactory all around. There fore it may be questionable whether 1t Is practical to make lime sulphur for the community unless one has aN ailable live steam to carry out the work. L. w. Rice of Wilbraham and others tried this project last year, and Beaume tests made of this mate rial by the horticultural adviser showed that when figured on the strength of the material on the mar ket it. showed saving of 40 to 50 per cent. This means quite an item to the fruit growers. and it is hoped that several communities will attempt making their own lime sulphur.

SPEED MANAGES
TAKING NOTICE
Campaign Started by Sheriff Against
Speeding Making Them Open
Their Ewes.

The campaign against the speed
mania which recently broke out in
this city and county, is resulting very
successfully both from a moral and a
financial standpoint for the county
and city governments. Special Off
GERS have apprehended many viola
tors an ordered them to the Court
House where they paid their fines.
Equally good results are being Sc
cured at the City Hall.
Every day sees l to three captures
and fines paid. Some ~fewcaught with
the goods have protested their case
and will carry them before the Circuit
Court at the next session. From what
is said at the Court House there will
be no fines assessed upstairs in the
court room and taken off downstairs.
The speed mania seems to have
broken out all over the country. In
the larger cities the traffic question
has been one of much concern ever
since the automobile came into use
but it is fast growing to a size that
extraordinary measures are being
adopted to handle it.
There is some complaint concerning
the attitude adopted by automobile
agencies in regard to the campaign
here and elsewhere against speeding.
According to the complaints the sales
Offices allover the country seem in
clined to aid the car owner to hide
his identity when he violates the law
rather than to pursuade him not to
exceed the speed limit at the risk of
his own life and the life of others.
The result from the present cam
paign demonstrates that the speed
tiend can be caught, and the police
officers Of County and City are deter
mined that henceforth none shall es-
cape.
