AGREE TOSTOP
SALEOF P|NTS
Saloonkeepers Unanimously
Agree to Discontinue Sale of
Bottled LIQUORS.

The liquor dealers of Perth Amboy
who maintain retail places throughout
the city. last night voted unanimous
ly to discontinue the sale of half pint
bottles of whiskey, at a special meet
ing of the Board of Excise commits
sioners to which they had been sum-
moned.
The meeting was called by President
Adolph Koyen of the board, and he
explained the reason for 1t, telling of
the boards desire TO prohibit the sal !
of liquor from retail places to be con-
sumed outside the place where sold
and asked the saloonkeepers If they
would abide by the law.
There were arguments pro and con
among many of the dealers which
waxed warm at times. Several hotel
and saloon keepers said that they were
only too glad TO agree to tbs propost-
tion, while others pleaded that the
poor workingman" would be cheated
out of his just rights.
Finally, however, upon a motion of
Peter j. Byrnes, proprietor of a ga
loon in New Bunswick avenue a vote
was taken and the body unanimously
decided to stand by the decee OF the
board and discontinue the sale of the
bottled whiskey or liquors.
This does not effect the wholesalers
who have licenses which allow them
to sell liquor in quantities from one
quart and up.
The meeting was particularly inter
esting In view of the fact that at a
meeting of the Perth Amboy Liquor
Dealers Association last Sunday, but
twenty dealers were present and last
night at the call of the board, there
were enough representatives of the
trade present to pack the council

association were wroth at this, and &C
cused many OF the saloonkeepers of
not showing enough attention to the
business OF the Association.
Several of the dealers compliance
that the prohibition of the sale of
pints and half pints OF liquor would
deprive a certain class of men In the
city of big privilege. They claimed
that workingmen, who would have to
pay from ten to twenty cents for n
glass of whiskey over the bar, could,
by buying in quantities. secure several
drinks for the price Of one, and that
1t was depriving these men OF that
right, thus working hardship on
them.
Others explained the state law with
regard to the sale of liquor In quanti-
ties from saloons and said that IL the
dealers did not abide by the state law.
they could be punished by the provi-
sions of IT,
Several men who have hotels and
the more pretentious places In the
city frankly admitted that they feared
for their outlay OF money and their
business II the more unruly and less
responsible dealers were TO continue
the sale OF liquor in bottles. as Il was
almost certain that quantities OF this
liquor reaches soldiers and sailors who
cannot obtain the liquor otherwise and
they fear the government will. with
one fell swoop, close all the liquor
places in the city. while they. careful
to obey the law in every respect. will
be made 10 suffer with the guilty ones.

"The obligation of every man, woman
and child out of uniform to help feed
himself will be greater in 1918 than in
1917. Therefore the home gardening
md canning activities of last year must
be repeated
This Is the message of the United
States Department of Agriculture to
every family. Those who cannot pro
duce, can. conserve and save food.
There must be no backsliding among
experienced gardeners; they must re-
peat their contribution of food. Alb
sence of novelty must not deter those
who tried gardening for the first time
In 1917 from capitalizing their increas-
ed knowledge and skill. Those with
experience must make every seed count
to get satisfactory returns from their
work with hoe, rake and watering can.
There must be no Stacking off. Gar
dening Is everybody's business but in
1918 everyone must attend to that bust
ness.
And now a word of caution. Don't
try to raise more than you can use.
And water Systematically all spring
and summer A few square yards
well TILED will yield more than a half
acre allowed to run to weeds.
The department advises strongly
against effort by amateur gardeners to
produce truck crops for sale. Such en-
terprises commonly prove unwise bur-
densome to all concerned, and not in
frequently financially Improbable.
Much precious seed and fertilizer
to say nothing of time and labor-were
wasted last year in such undertakings
The governments home gardening spe-
ciahsts believe that best results will be
attained if each family attempts to
raise only enough vegetables to supply
It's own table and to afford the surplus

inches to 3 feet apart. depending on

The parsnip requires very rich soil for
it's best development. The roots are
usually left in the ground during the
winter and dug as needed. but may be
harvested in the autumn, packed in
moist sand and stored in pits or root
cellars. Most people consider this
