In pruning for wood the following
rules are usually applicable: Weak
growing varieties may always be
pruned generously, trong-growing
kinds lightly; varieties which branch
freely need little pruning, those hav-
ing unbranching limbs should be
pruned more severely; rich, deep soils
favor growth, prune trees in such
soils lightly; in shallow, sandy soils
trees produce short shoots, and the
wood should be closely cut.

JUNK DEALER IS
HEAVILY FINED
A. BENovITCH DRAWS A 500
SLIP FOR VIOLATING THE
LICENSE ORDINANCE.

A. Benovitch, local junk dealer,
was fined $100 in police court by May
or Hopkins yesterday. The charge
was doing business without license
and, as this was the second offense
the dealer was given notice that an
other violation would be met with
stern measures. Benovitch was fined
SIS several weeks ago on a similar
charge.
Although the police have searched
the city over diligently and made ev-
cry effort in their power to uncover
a "blind tiger" or a boot-legger. they
have been unable to locate a single
offender and the conclusion has been
reached that the would-be law-break-
ers have given Brunswick wide
berth. The records bear out the pre-
sumption that no liquor is being sold
here. Not case of drunkenness has
been in police court since Monday,

HAVE
A MYSTERY TO
UNRAvEL NOW
BLOODY PILLOW CASES AND
BOXcAR FLOOR COVERED
WITH GORE START RUMOR
-lNVESTiGATION MADE.

The police department is working on
a mystery case which promises to give
its most cunning sleuths enough to do
for a time. Early Wednesday morning
a report was made to headquarters
that some bloody clothes had been dis
covered near the Georgia Coast &
Piedmont shops at the edge of the
city. Policeman Cowman was assign
ed to the case and went Immediately
to the scene, where he found three
pillow slips and a pillow, reeking
with blood. The articles were lying
near hog pen.
Near the place, Policeman Cowman
noticed boXcar, which appeared to
be used for living purposes. He trac-
ed the blood to this car and found
splashes of blood on the car door
Upon entering the box car with the
shop foreman who was called, he saw
floor. Several broken whiskey bottles
floor Several broken whisey bottles
were scattered about and the place
gave every appearance of having been
the scene of free-for-all fight.
The police learned from the city
hospital that only one person had been
taken there suffering from cuts. This
was young woman who was taken to
the institution late Tuesday night.
An artery had been severed in her
hand and, when asked by the nurse
how she was injured, she said that a
window fell and her hand was cut on
the glass. The ,womanis name is
being withheld for the present until
further investigation can be made, as
the police are not certain that she has
any connection with the grewsome
find at the railroad shops. 1t was
said the woman had lost considerable
amount of blood before she reached
the hospital
Arrests, if such are warranted, may
be made today as Officer Cowman is
working energetically on the case.
Rumors were flying about yesterday
morning that murder had been com.
mitted, but these were found to be
without foundation in fact.

The report shows more subordinate
lodges suspended than during the

lor. This was brought about because
of the financial strngency and be
cause Grand Chancellor Beatty had
the courage to cut off lodges thai

other grand chancellors have moi
been so prompt to act. He expressed
the belief that the order is reall,
stronger without these weak sisters
Sixty-four lodges were suspended dur

The recommendations made by tht
grand chancellor are that every Lodge
attend public religious service ono,
each year; that Memorial Day b'
observed more generally; that there
be frequent public installation of Off
GERS; that grand chancellor SHOULD
serve more than one year; that thu
