GREATEST AUGUST
In RESORTS HISTORY
Wildwood Hotels Had a Busy and
a Profitable Month. Bank
Deposits Break all Records,
and the StOrekeepers
Beat them all for
Making Money
COUNTY COURT BEGINS NEXT WEEK

The people of Wildwood have just
recovered from the busiest August in
the history of the place. People flock
ed to the hotels for accommodations
and many were turned away. Cots
and beds that had not been used for
years were pressed in service, and
placed in parlors, dining rooms or any
vacant space. To the hotel keepers
this was a welcome situation, since the
July business was poor. The store
keeper of every kind has had a most
profitable season of fully three months.
He has felt the effect of the hundreds
Of bungalows erected during the past
year, everyone of which was filled.
This bungalow contingent has been a
little gold mine to the grocer, milk man,
butcher, Ice man, fruit and vegetable
vendors, etc. The result of this great
influx of people is reflected in the great
increase of deposits In the Marine Ma
tional Bank and the Wild wood Title
and Trust company, statements of
which appear in this issue of the
JOURNAL. The deposits in the Marine
Bank are nearly a quarter of a million
Of dollars more than a year ago, while
the Trust company shows an increase
of nearly 500, 600 in deposits. The ice
man, the grocer, the milk man, ETC., is
able to pay his bills promptly now, and
certainly should do so.
The September Courts will commence
at Cape May Court House, the capital
of Cape May County, next Tuesday.
The petit jurors drawn from the island
are Roland Corson, clothier; John
Erickson, merchant; Elias Lee, livery
man; Charles II. Lare, real estate;
Louis Sagel, candy merchant; John
Seagraves, blacksmith.

Artesian Valley Milling Co.
To Make Artesian Cream

The flour mill, owned by A. ].
Plush and bis son, E. V. Plush,
is rapidly nearing completion,
and within few weeks will be
making flour.
Mr.. W. B. McMurry,.tbe mill
wright, is here installing the
machinery. and Mr.. H. A. Boze.
man, the miller, has also arrived.
The company will be known
as The Artesian Milling Co., and
as an advertise ment for the al
ready famous Artesian Valley,
and as an appropriate name for
the output of the Artesian Mill
ing Co., the -four will be named
fArtesian Cream" Included in
the design on the sack will be an
exact reproduction of flowing
well.
The mill was to have been in
operation August first but de-
lay in the arrival of the machin-
ecy made this impossible.
At this time the capacity of
the mill will be fifty barrels a
day, and will be doubled as soon
and business justified.
The flour manufactured here
will be equal to any now being
shipped in and 1t is understood
that the majority of the Meade
County merchants will handle it.
Mr.. Plush and his son are ex-
perienced in their line and their
present undertaking represents
an investment OF $4,000, and
they should be encouraged by a
liberal patronage.

do Your Bit"

To owners of Live Stock, City
and Town officers, Newspaper
Editors, and Others:
The Rock Island Railway on
its Second District alone, killed
enough live stock on the tracks
last fiscal year to provide meat
for an ar my of 100000 men (such
as will be gathered at any one of
the several cantonments) for a
period Of three weeks.
With the passing of the open
range and the settling of the
country, the killing of live stock
on the railway tracks has become
a more and more troublesome
quertion to handle. The atti-
tude of the public has been more
or less indifferent, confning its
efforts mainly to securing for
the owners some return in mon
ey for the stock lost, but doing
little to prevent or control the
source of the trouble. The
acute economic condition which
has been brought about by the
great war and the necessity for
conserving the food supply adds
additional importance to this
most serious question.
During the year which ended
June 80, 1917 the Second District
of the Rock Island Lines killed
274 horses and mules, 1114 cattle
1850 hogs and l04 sheep, a total
Of 3l42 head of stock. This
stock Was killed on the eleve n
divisions comprising the district t
and lying within the states Of
Missauri, Kansas, Oklahoma,
Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, and
New Mexico.
The country is being com bed
for horses and mules, both for
army purposes and for farm
work. 1t has been stated that a
total of 250,000 horses a month
will be required TO supply and
equip the American Army when
it arrives at full strength in
France. Farm work must be
carried on in this country as
never before TO feed ourselves,
our army, and millions of the
peop'e OF our Allies. We must
have horses and mules to carry
on this work.
"We are doing our bit" in elm
mating this waste by Superin-
tendents, Roadmasters, and Sec
tlonmen making a personrl ap-
peal to owners of stock to keep
their animals in fenced enclos-
ures. Engineers taking every
precautlon within their power 10
avoid striking stock, station ag-
ents, helpers, and section men
cooperating in driving stock off
the right of way, keeping farm
gates closed, and fences and cat
tie guards in good repair.
We cannot however, make
much greater progress without
the cooperation of the officers
of the different cities and others
in reducing this economic waste
City officers and Others can
"do their bit" by cooperating
with owners of stock, keeping
their animals in fenced enclos-
ures and not permitting them to
run at large on railroad right of
way, City and Town officers

THE GARRICK

The Vitagraph production of My Of
fetal Wife, starring Clara Kimball
Young. will always rank as one of the
notable achievements of the screen.
The story offers every requisite for
the making of vital, brilliantly col
ored and strongly dramatic photo
play, and no opportunity has been
overlooked in filming the picture Most
Of the scenes are laid in st. Peters
burg. and the Russian atmosphere has
been counterfeited with convincing
skill.
The action at the Russian frontier
and at the railway station in st.
Petersburg, the imperial entry into the
grand ballroom, the chase after the
beautiful Nihilist and her lover, and
the destruction Of the yacht by gun
IRE, are all striking situations In a
photoplay that Is without dull mo-
ment. The acting is Of the same order
af excellence.
