Wildwood and Delaware Bay
Short Line Railroad DraWbridge
Not Damaged
SERVICE WAS RESUMED SUNDAY MORNING

A distinct service in rai1roading is being rendered Wild
wood and the whole Five Mile Beach by the Wildwood and
Delaware Bay Short Line Company (Reading route) to
Philadelphia, Lakewood, Red Bank, Perth Amboy, Eliza
beth, Jersey City and New York. This was emphasized
last week at the time of the big storm tide.
While the Short Line train could not get across the
meadows on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday,
passenger service was maintained between the above named
points by ~jitneying the passengers across to the mainland
where they took the Reading train at Wildwood junction.
Two men from Anglesea were at a loss to know how
they could get to the city on Friday of last week. They
finally learned of the Wildwood and Delaware Bay Short
Lines service, and they reached the city in due time.
The damage to this road was less than anticipated. At
the heighth of the storm on Thursday, February 5th, 1920,
the officials estimated that the cost of repairs would be in
the neighborhood of $4,000. Secretary Q. L Blackwell said
this week that the repairs to the roadbed would not exceed
$500 and that the drawbridge was not damaged at all.
A gang of men worked all day Friday and Saturday
and part of the night fixing the roadbed. General Manager
Slaughter and Secretary Blackwell took personal charge
and run a special train out on the meadows Saturday night
and served hot coffee and sandwiches to the workmen.. At
1870 that night this train with these officials aboard passed
over the drawbridge and on to the Junction and the road
was open. Travel was resumed as usual on Sunday morn
ing, commencing with the go a. m. train out.
The Pennsy resumed their schedule last Saturday
morning. Last Sunday the Reading run the excursion
from Philadelphia to Wildwood as usual, but the Pennsy
did not. The Readings excursion next Sunday will be
run as usual, leaving Chestnut street ferry, Philadelphia, for
Wildwood at 7.30 a. m. Returning this train leaves Wild
wood at SIS.
We would call your attention to the us express which
leaves Wildwood every weekday morning for Philadelphia
and New York. Another good train for these points and a
number of North Jersey towns is the III every weekday
afternoon. This train connects at Wlnslow junction with
the Atlantic City express over the Jersey Central Tor New
York, and lands you in the skyline financial district at
$50 p m. The evening weekday train from Philadelphia
for Wildwood leaves Chestnut street ferry at 42O. It's
due in Wildwood at 615, and is usually on time to the
minute.

CULLING OF POULTRY FLOCK

for months at a time instead of being properly sheltered. and that although cotton is one of the hardest of farm products, it's strength is not sufficient to withstand such exposure to the ele- mentS.
 The bureau of markets maintains that the amount of money lost through this cause in a single season would probably be sufficient to build the warehouses needed. and that after the first year these warehouses would be- come practically surplus assets in the hands of the farmers.
 It is also pointed out that receipts covering cotton stored in properly op- erated warehouses are accepted gen. erally as collateral for loans, the in terest charges for which are more than paid for by the profits accruing to the farmer through his ability to sell his cotton as it is needed by the mills.

WORDS FROM HOME
Statements That May Be Investigat- ed. Testimony of Canaan Citizens

When a Canaan citizen comes to the front, telling his friends and neighbors of his experience, you can rely on his sincerity. The state ments of people residing in far away places do not command your con- fidence. Home endorsement is the kind that backs Doan's Kidney Pills. Such testimony is convinc- ing. Investigation proves it true. Below is a statement of a Canaan resident. No stronger proof of merit can be had.
 James O. Snyder, Bragg St., says "My kidneys had been out of order for some time and I often had diffi- culty in passing the kidney secre- tions. My back pained great deal, too. When I stopped over, I could hardly straighten up. After using 8 box of Doan's Kidney Pills, pro- cured from Farnum 6 Co.'s Drug Store, I had no more kidney trouble

4ighty Good Investment of Time to Spend Rainy Day in Putting Im-

A rainy day spent in putting that moving machine, hay Ioa1er, binder and other harvesting machinery into shape is a mighty good investment of time. This is more true shds year than usual for two reasons-f1fst, labor is much scarcer, and therefore the loss of any time wastedf will be greater, and, secondly, the parts may be harder to get than usual, due to a shortage of supplies in many lines.

OUTBREAK OF TRUE ARMY WORM HAS
 BEEN DETECTED IN SOUTHERN AREAS

of the pest Is effected by means of poi soned baits, poisoned sprays upon crops not intended to be used as for age. and by the construction of ditches and traps where the masses of cater pillars can be caught and crushed with a log drag.
 For the next three months the fields of growing grass and grain must be watched carefully and, when the worm Is discovered, the attack should be pressed with utmost vigor to prevent the pest from fortifying his position. Once intrenched the army worm will claim a large slice of farm profits for his ndemnity-millions of dollars have passed down the greedy nav of the army worm in the past 30 years.
 Markings of True Worm.
 The true army worm should not be confused with the "overfow worm" or the "grass worm," say the federal en- tomologists. The genuine article is a nearly naked, smooth, striped cater pillar about one and one-half inches long. His greenish body is marked with three dark stripes which run, enc down each side and. one down the back, for the length of the body. The head Is greenish brown, speckled with black.
 The army worm operates in masses, and from this characteristic he derives his name. When large numbers of them are at work in field the champ ing sound of their moving jaws can be plainly heard as they devour every blade in sight 1.

In the long battle against insect enc mics, the bureau of entomology, United States department of agriculture, serves as the farmers listening post" to give due warning of an impending raid from the enemy. An outbreak of the true army worm has been detect cd in southern Illinois, and also in southern Missouri, and the scientists are making every effort to give infor- nation upon the control of this pest.

PLACE FOR HORSES TO ROLL
Best Plan to Let Animal Out Once Each Day-RoIIing Adds to It's
 Health and Vigor.

Where horses are closely confined in stalls most of the time. they are more apt to roll in the filth and ma nure than if they had been taken out and allowed to roll once day. Let ting them roll outside of stalls saves much currying and brushing. avoids the possibility of the animal rolling where it would get fast, and adds to it's health and vigor by keeping It cleaner.

AlTKEN ORE IS
 MOVING NOW IN
 STEADY FLOW

The ore which is being removed from the Aitken galena property, in
 the Kantishna district, is moving now in steady stream from the mine to the Kantishna river at Roosevelt,
 where it is being cached on the river bank for shipment to a smelter in the States after the opening of naviga- tion next spring. In fact, the stream of ore coming from the ledge has reached such proportions that Ed Bartlett, who has the contract to de- liver the ore at Roosevelt, is finding difficulty keeping up with the mine
 output, which is considerably greater than he anticipated, and it is consid- cred probable that he will be com pelled to put on additional teams. Frank Glass, who is now working with the Bartlett outfit, arrived in Me-
 mana recently from the Kantishna,
 having made the trip out to the gov
 ernment railroad with one horse and 8 double-ender to secure a few neces-
 sary supplies. He reports that Bart
 lett is now hauling about seven tons
 of ore day, and that the ore sacked
 at the mine ranges from seven to
 eleven tons That means that the ore
 is accommodating rapidly at the mine.
 necessitating action of some sort at
 an early date to insure delivery of all the ore at the river before the
 trail goes to pieces.
 The Bartlett teams have been han dicapped, Glass says, by cold weather,
 which has prevented loading as heav- fly as might otherwise have been done
 The sacks are supposed to average about one hundred pounds in weight,
 but Glass says that occasionally one
 is found which will weigh nearly two
 hundred pounds, indicating a much
 larger percentage of galena. The ore is getting better all the time as the
 work progresses, and Glass is enthu- siastic over the outlook for the Kan tishna country as a result of the rapid
 and very successful development of the Aitken property.
 In going back Glass planned to take l the train for the Thirtymile road
 house, where he left his horse, but he will not attempt to make the trip
 across country until the weather mod
 crates. It is necessary to "siwash''
 along the trail, and extreme cold such
 as has prevailed recently, renders

ENDURANCE WILL
WIN THE RACE
Man Can Hold His Own With Lower
Animals in Any Race in Which
Question Of Time Is
involved.

, Some years ago visitors to vel
known London music hall witnessed
a remarkable sight 1t was an
. nounced that Pole named Lett
would perform some amazing feats
of strength, says London Answers.
There appeared upon the stage a
little man only five feet in heigh,
and weighing but ten stone. Not
young, either, for he was only three
years off forty.
The audience rubbed their eyes
Was this the much advertised strong
man? A huge anchor was brought in
and four men chung to it. This bur
den, weighing no less than 1900
pounds, was at once lifted by Lettl,
less than 400 pounds.
He then stood between two eight
horsepower cars, to which he at
which he held in his hands. The cars
were started simultaneously, but by
sheer finger strength Lettl held them
so that they could not move, although
the engines were working at full
power.
This feat of holding two cars may
perhaps be taken as pretty we'll the
limit of human strength. That it is
fearfully risky feat is proved by
the horrible accident which befell the
famous strong man, known as Apol-
Ion.
At Vichy, before large audience,
he essayed a similar feat, his arms
being harnessed by chains to two
cars which were driven in opposite
directions. He accomplished the per
Torrance safely, and then, in answer
to applause, tried it again. To the
horror of the spectators, he was seen
to lose his balance. Before the mo-
tors could be stopped all the muscles
of the right side of his chest were
torn out. He died almost instantly.
Man is truly wonderful animal.
Although the majority of the human
race ruin their strength and consti-
tutions by unwise eating and drink
ing, by lack of fresh air and by I'M
necessary exposure to all sorts Of in
lection, yet, even so, man can more
than hold his own with the brute
creation.
Not, of course, In muscular strength.
A tiger with one pat of his paw can
reduce a human skull to pulp; a hare
can run two yards to a mans one.
1t is in endurance that man beats the
lower races. For short distance a
race horse can gallop nearly thirty
five miles an hour, but in a 500-miIe
race a trained man will easily beat
any horse that ever lived.
