More Orchards to Be Set Out.

Walter E. Herr is making arrange
ments TO plant out an orchard OF S.
acres of choice apple trees on the W.
L. Herr farm on Sandy Ridge, south
east, of town. He will plant Stay
mans, Yorks, Bens, Starke Delicious,
Grimes Golden and Golden Delicious,
and will put them out next spring If
he can get the trees. There is great
scarcity of nursery stock, however,
and as few dealers have a surplus it
will be hard to get deliveries before
next fall.
Boiling Gait, of Washington, who
some time ago bought the Blunt farm
of 100 acres east of Shepherdstcwn,
was here a few days ago, and an
nounced his intention of setting out
forty acers of apples either next
spring or next fall. He will put them
on the high ridge overlooking the Po-
tomac river. Mr.. Gait also expects TO
build a new clearinghouse later on.
Seventy-hve acres of orchards Will
be added to the already large acreage
of the Rothwell Farms and Orchards
Company near Leetown this fall. The
planting will have 5000 trees in II and
they will be set out on the north end
of the Jones farm, north of Leetown.
The varieties for the new orchard are.
for the most part, Grimes Delicious,
Willow Twig and Stayman Winesaps.

Mr.. Britner Gets a Bad Fall.

Vim. J. Britner had a narrow es-
cape from sudden death last Monday
about noon. He had built a small
scaffold on the roof Of G. w. Hof-
mans dwelling house on Main street,
in order to make repairs to the top
of the chimney. AS he was about 10
climb upon the scaffold it broke and
bricks and timber shot down the steep
roof, with Mr., Britner sliding close
behind them. The snow board broke
when the mass struck il and there was
nothing to save him from fall. His
body took a sidewise lurch as he went
over the edge of the roof, and he land
ed on a pile of sand instead OF hitting
upon the paved walk and the mass OF
bricks and lumber. Although he was
badly shaken UP and got couple OF
cuts upon his face, the sand pile saved
him from broken bones. DR.. Banks
was hastily summoned, but found no
hurts of dangerous character, and
Mr.. Britner was later taken home. 1t
was an almost miraculous escape, for
he fell at least Is feet.

necessity of making prompt payment
under these circumstances. The old
