TOMATOES BEGINNING
TO ARRIVE IN MARKET
CAPTAINS B. Frank Travers And J.
Gus Adams Bring goo Baskets to
Phillips Packing Company.

Captain B. Frank Creighton, in
the bugeye Nora Phillips. arrived in
the harbor this morning with a car
go of 300 baskets of tomatoes, which
he had freighted from New Jersey to
the Phillips Packing Company. Capt.
Gus Adams arrived Saturday night in
his large power boat with a cargo of
$500 baskets, which had been brou-
ght from Somerset county.
The indications are that within
a short time all of the canning hou-
ses in the county will be in opera
ton, as much of the forward acreage
will be in bearing in a few days.
While nearly all crops are badly in
need of rain, the tomato crop, in
most sections, seems to be suffering
less than other crops. There is a
very large acreage all over the coun-
ty, and in most places the outlook
seems unusually promising.

Army Makes Record
Meat Purchase

Chicago, July 22.-The largest sin
gle order for bacon and canned
meats in the history of the world
9,560,000 pounds of bacon and
1874. 100000 pounds of canned meat
has just been placed by the Quar-
termaster's Department, U. S. A. for
the American Army overseas.
Louis F. Swift, in commenting on
this, said the order will take the ba-
con from approximately 1900, 0OG
hogs, and if other work We're dropp-
ed to produce it, would De equiva-
lent to the total bacon production of
the five largest Chicago packers for
nearly five weeks, however, six mon
tbs will elapse before delivery is to
be completed.
Mr. Swift said:
AT the current prices on the day,
last week, when the purchase was
made, the packers would pay the live
stock producers about $S0,000,000
for the necessary hogs and over $50,
100000 for about 100000 cattle re-
quired.
The cattle will cost US twice as
much, and the hogs two and one-nalf
times as much as in the pre-war per-
iod
The whole order will be made up
before the first of the year, despite
the fact that, even before this pur-
chase, one-fourth of the packers IA
cilities have been devoted to filling
military demands.
In order to get out the canned
goods the packers will find it neces-
sary to employ night and day shifts
of Gamers. Notwithstanding the
fact that the products are being rush
ed forward thus hurriedly, not a sin
gle complaint has been received on
meats delivered to the armies
abroad
The five packers are now killing
about 100000 hogs weekly to keep
abreast of martial and domestic
needs

Don't Expect Children
TO Save It All

Owing no doubt to the good work
of those hustling, keen young boys
and girls who have so generously
given of their time and their pen
MES to the thrift campaign, the i'm
preston has been created in the
minds of many that War Savings
Stamps are for children only.
Let us stop to consider the matter
for a moment
The Congress authorized an issue
of 2,000,000,000 w. S. S. to be sold
in 1918. The purpose of the Stamps
was twofold: First, to get Money for
the Government for war needs; sec
ond to instill the habit Of thrift in
the American people and by the
practice of thrift save labor and ma
terials for the Government.
Can we expect the children, splen-
did workers that they are, to account
for $4,000, 100000 of Stamps?
Do we consider that the children
alone of all our population need to
be inculcated with the thrift idea?
Are they the only spendthrifts?
Certainly not.
War Savings Stamps are for every
one. No one, be he a millionaire or
be he the humblest laborer, can say
truthfully that he is not interested
in w. S. S. and the saving program
that they stand for
There are, indeed, few man and
women in the land unable to save
and economic more than they do
now. If they want to be listed among
the patriotic people of the land they
must save and economic more than
they do now. The winning of the
war with the least possible sacrifice
demands this, for there are not
enough labor and materials for the
Governments war needs and for the
use of the spendthrifts.
Cut those useless expenditures. All
of us have them. Remember that
our boys in the Army and Navy do
not expect luxuries and do not grum-
BILE even if they do not get all the
comforts that they are supposed to
get.
Show the children that you, too,
are enlisted in the War Savings Army

Girl Scouts Enjoy
Splendid Outing

A number of the Girl Scouts who
have been spending a week at TRAY
ers' Wharf have returned home, and
report having spent week of real
solid enjoyment. Capt. Margaret
Small and Lieut.. Rebecca Leonard
were in charge of the party, which
spent the week at the home place of
the late Joseph Spedden, the owners
of the property having very kindly
given them permission to sQccupy TIE
home. The time was spent in fsh-
ing, bathing, marching, reading,
knitting and perhaps most important
of all, eating, and if eating is any
index to health. then these young
people are certainly healthy. They
are decided, unanimously, that next
year they wanted to be sure and
spend another week camping out.

airmen. They were unable 10 bring

tiCn of mountain guns and light

According to the correspondent,
the British participated in the battle
yesterday for tie first time. TheE
entered the line between Rheims
and the Marine in the region of the
Rrdre river. where Italian troops had
been lighting heavily for several
DAYS. The British took their posi-

Immediately and with complete sue
cess, advancing more than mile.
On this front there was much fiuc-
tuation in the fighting yesterday. At
one time the British took Marfaux,
Cuitron, and Courton Wood. Some
of these gains. however, were lost
when the Germans made counterat-
tacks.
In the Arde Valley the British
were today still holding some of
their gains, including the woodline
running along the western edge Of
the stream.
Further to the southwest the Ger
man hold the line along the Marine
from Oeuilly to just east of Chateau
Thierry.

London. July 21.-Chateau-Thler
ry has been evacuated By the Ger
man forces, and with their with
drawal from that pivot point on the
Marine salient French and American
forces have pushed across the Marine
behind them, and, in cooperation
with the troops at Vaux and to the
northward, have swept them back
several miles, even beyond the high
way to scissors.
Unofficial advices say the allied
forces here have broken through the
enemy's lines at this point.
Further north, also, nearly to
scissors, French and American
troops have passed forward, so that
not only has the Soissons-Chateau-
Thierry highway been reached at
Hartennes, but also the railway is
under the allied guns, and there is
evidence that Oulchy will soon be
evacuated.
The entire front has been straight
ened out, so that the gain along the
whole front amounts to fully seven
miles.
On the east side of the salient be-
tween Rheims and the Marine French
and British troops have made pro-
gress by strong attacks. Rouilly has
been taken from the enemy.
The enemy was fighting very hard,
bringing up fresh troops and deliv-
ering local attacks, but did not seem
to be able to hold up the allied ad-
vance north of Chateau-Thierry, ac-
cording to early advices from the
front.
German traffic at Fere-en-Tarde
nois was being vigorously and con-
tinuously bombed by French airmen,
and apparently the Germans had to
do one of two things-clear the
French off the railway west of Fere-
en-Tardenois or bring back their
troops from north of the Marine to
fatten out the salient.
Further north the French had then
reached the highroad from scissors
to Chateau-Thierry, near the village
of Hartennes-et-Taux. The highroad
and the railway from scissors to
Chateau-Thierry were even then well
within range of the French guns
along their whole length and were
being subjected to artillery fire.
The same thing applied to the
nnction Of this road with the only
alternative line. which comes from
Hsmes and joins it at Nanteuil-Norte
Dame. The latter place was within
gun range. The supply situation of
the enemy on the Marine was thus be-
coming more difficult every hour.
The gain in this region had brou-
ght the depth Of the French advance
over the twenty-seven-mile front be-
tween the two drives up 10 six to
eight and a half miles.
The Reuter- correspondent at
French Headquarters, telegraphing
at O'Clock this morning, reported
the Germans still retreating
Referring to the fighting east of
Chateau-Thierry along the Marine, the
correspondent said that eight Ger
man divisions which had reached the
south bank of the river were able to
cross the hills that overlooked the
Marine, but none who lived to recross
will forget the terrible days they
spent south of the stream. The
ground they held was overlooked ev-
erywhere by French and American
artillery observers. Inclosed in a
narrow space between the river and
the hills, they offered a sure target
for the allied artillery.
For food and munitions, he says,
the Germans were dependent upon
the transport service across the
