These were placed as follows: l.,

Salem Grange held their "corn
night" Thursday, November 18th. The
meeting was very we'll attended and

in five ten-ear exhibits of corn that
was on the whole very well selected.

Poultry Husbandry

The Short Course in Poultry Hus-
bandrys began November 18th at Rut-
gers College. Tuition is free to resi-
dents of New Jersey, the only ex-
pense being the registration fee Of SIS,
books and supplies, costing about $40,
and room and board at prevailing
rates in New Brunswick. Any person
16 years old or more, who has had a
public school education, may enroll
without entrance examination. 1t is
a valuable curse for those interested
in improving poultry focks and IN
creasing egg production. Other
courses to be taken on like terms are
Dairy-farming and Vegetable Garden
ing. The courses will close February
18th.

War Department Resents Attacks

During the campaign just closed the
War Department was the target OF
the relentless critics. 1t was accused
of wastefulness, extravaganza, ineffi-
cheney, and of other similar faults.
But now Secretary of War Baker
comes out with the statement in de-
tense of his Department which, in all
fairness, should have honest consider
alton. He claims that "the Depart
ment has saved over 50, 675,342,881 to
the taxpayers of this country through
the sale of surplus var supplies and
settlements of claims" He reminds
his critics that " the Department made
its purchases at a time when a field
force of five million men vas contem-
plated" and that "the enormous sup
plies on hand would have been totally
inadequate had the war lasted another
He shows that the claim that
property had cost this country $780,
989, 1902 was sold to France for $4,000
900, payable in ten years is entirely
erroneous"
The Secretary, however, emphasizes
the program of the Department to dis
pose of surplus and reclaimed supplies
to the American ultimate consumer at
reasonable rates.
Congress spent two millions in
undertaking the Administrations war
expenditures and has proven no graft.

For Postmaster

Senator Harding has not yet applied
to us for advice as to his Cabinet
selections; but when he does we shall
certainly say a good word for Cyrus
H. K. Curtis for the Postmaster Gen
eralship. Mr.. Curtis knows just what
Mr.. Burleson's mistakes were, and how
to correct them; and he has an idea or
two on how to make big profits out of
the postal Observation-Disclosures Rec
ord.
Mr.. Curtis is publisher of the Led
ger and Evening Ledger, and the Sat
urday Evening Post. The Post was
carried by carloads for thousands of
miles at less than cost until the zone
system was adopted by Congress.
Others paid the bill.

Why? This same question has been
asked many times and seems of gen.
eral interest-hence | am embOldened
to ask space for it's answer
Christian Scientists believe, and are
convinced, that the Word of God,
rightly declared and understood,
brings healing to all who meekly and
gladly 'hear what the Spirit saith
into the churches" (Rev. ~, -.
They also have living and abiding
faith, based upon demonstration, that
every Christian Science Church SER
vice is a means of healing for all who
are humbly seeking to know God
Alright. Consequently Christian Sci
entists attend all the church services,
not as a duty OF a task, but as a joy
Gus opportunity They look forward
eagerly and gladly to each service as
a further step toward the knowledge
of "the kingdom of God and the power
of his Christ" (Rev. xii, 10Y. Jesus
declared, "And this is life eternal,
that they might know Thee, the only
true God, and Jesus Christ whom
Thou hast sent" (John XVIII
Christian Scientists are seeking,
therefore, a present demonstrate
knowledge of "life eternal" and also
to manifest and express their graft
tude and gladness for ever increasing
proofs that Gods will is done II
earth as it is in heaven" They are
also impelled to go gladly to each one
of their services that they may aid IL
imparting to others the healing Cos
pei by which they themselves have
been SO abundantly blessed.

Among Our Advertisers

Penns Grove is enjoying an unusual
bargain season among its leading mer-
chants. Reductions sales are the rule
among them. There has been a wide
spread slump in prices of many COM
modities all over the country. Retail
store have been carrying large stocks
of goods bought at high prices, and
consequently were not in the market
to any great extent for new orders.
This of course affected the manufac-
~tureres land jobbers and their prices
began to fall off. This started the
movement among the retailers and at
prices quoted today on many lines they
are selling at a loss or very near it in
order to reduce their stocks.
1t is pleasing to state that the dis
counts advertised here at home are
genuine. This has ben proven by
actual experience in buying by u
people since the movement began.
Often sales are announced that do
not result in ony real benefit to the
buyer, merely unloading schemes to
stir up trade during a dull period.
Just now, however, they are different.
Our leading stores have entered into
the movement with a real purpose in
view, to assist in the readjustment
that a falling market, not only in all
commodities, but with labor as well,
that is now going on everywhere. Dis
counts of 20 to 30 per cent. are the
rule rather than the exception.
Staid old concerns, that never in
dulge in sensational business methods,
are among the number, such as S. r.
Leap & Son, general merchandise; WI
S. Leap, clothing and mems furnish
ngs; Poland's department store is
running a remarkable sale with prices
cut away below the big metropolitan
stores. The Penns Grove Bargain
Store is figuring close to cost and asks
the cooperation of all business men
in the work. Kinda, the exclusive
shoe dealer, is appealing to the public
n the same direction and proves his
sincerity in the prices he quotes. B.
3ress & Son are also making sacrifices

Until it reaches Easton and Phillips

the pollution begins. Excusing them
selves under the plea Of war necessity,
many manufacturers during the World
War began to empty unfiltered factory
sewage into the river. Coal mines and
plants along the Lehigh river, which
enters the Delaware at Easton, were
among the worst offenders. Several
plants have since checked the flow of
poisons into public water but recently
Investigations show that many still Of

Fishing for nearly 200 miles along
the Delaware river has been ruined

All fish authorities have agreed that
the decline of shad fishing in the Del

water and the same condition, it has
been pointed out, is a public menace
in that it endangers the health of the
hosts of pleasure seekers who make
the shores of the Delaware a great
