START FEEDING THE cows NOW

The price of mill feed is cheaper
now and with the present price of
butterfat it will pay well to feed some
bran or middlings to the cows from
now on, and keep the milk flow up to
standard.
The man who has plenty Of good
clover or blue grass pasture is IN
luck and don't need to feed, but the
man with the worn out pasture is los
ing money if he lets his cows get thin,
and fall on their milk yield at this
season of the year.

That see most every day,
AS | trudge along, half hearted
In my narrow, stubborn way;
When the world seems cold and selfis
With cloud in every place.

When meet a baby face
When l spy the little go-cart
And the darling that it bears,
The glimpse catch in passing
SOftens down the sternest cares;
Yes, that ugly frown relaxes,
And a smile will take it's place,
At the magic intervention
Of happy baby's face.

More than he can ever know,
For he recalls baby-face
That cheered me, long ago
recall the childish prattle
AS he perched upon my knee
But, shucks! he's over thirty now,
An thinks he's bigger'n me!

Goldberg's New
Edgewater Store

Paul Goldberg, who for fourteen
years has been identified with the
Goldberg Pharmacy at Edgewater, has
increased his business interests in
EdgewateI and has opened thorough
ly modern and highly attractive de-
partment store in Dempsey avenue.
The new store, which is opposite the
Power House, about half minutes
walk up Dempsey avenue from the
Fort Lee Ferry, is designed for the
convenience of residents of Edgewater
and all the other towns on this side
of the river, who patroniZe the Fort
Lee Ferry line. 1t was opened to give
them adequate shopping facilities in
standard lines of trade marked goods
without the necessity of crossing the
river.
The store is beautifully furnished
and appointed, and is rich in its equip
ment as any of the metropolitan de-
partment stores. the relative sizes and
stocks being considered.
The new enterprise is welcomed to
Edgewater, because of the convent
ence it affords large numbers of busy
shoppers who can sometimes i'll afford
the time it requires to go to the city
for their required purchases.

Rizzo, Cliffside
Man, a Robber

Four men, one of whom has been
identified as Frank Rizzo, entered the
saloon of William Watcek in River
| road North Bergen, and at the point
of guns relieved those in the place of
over $780, about u :15 o'clock Monday
morning. Rizzo has been identified by
a picture held by the Cliffside police,
but his partners are still unknown.
Rizzo was later taken in custody at
Fairview by Detective Lieutenant
Cash and Officer Gould.
In the saloon at the time were sew
EN- men enjoying Il game of cards be-
sides three OnlOOkerS. The gangsterS
made their entry by door leading
from the hallway. RizzO and two of
his companions Immediately called to
the men to throw up their hands,
whilst the fourth gangster stood guard
at the hall door.
While the process of searching their
victims, who had arisen, was going on,
one of the gangsters recognized Jo-
Seph KunaZefski and found fault be-
cause the latter had but very little
iilollcS Will Hill. AS lie accused Null
azefski of being a gambler he hit him
with blackjack, raising his own cap
from over his eyes enough for John
Jagerski to recognize him as fellow
worker in the baking powder depart
ment of the General Chemical Com
pany, and also Il proprietor of res
taurant in Walker street, Cliffside.
After relieving their prey of all their
cash, the robbers warned them not to
make any outcry for ten minutes and
then made a getaway.
John Jagerski informed the North
Bergen police that he had recognized
Rizzo as one of the hoid-up men, and
that he kept restaurant in Cliffside.
Lieutenant Cash and Officer Gould had
no trouble locating Rizzo, as he, ap-
parently, believed that he had not
been recognized by the victims.-

Gov. Parker Says Fence Law Not to
be Introduced.


Baton Rouge, Sept. 6.-No
bills will be introduced at the
coming session of the legislature
providing for a mo fence" law
that will have the approval of
the administration.
The existing law provides that
the police juries of the several
parishes have jurisdiction over
the fence question. Police juries
can order elections to determine
whether a mo fence" law shall
be put in force, or refuse to or
der such elections, as they pre-
fer.
Governor Parker, who favors
a no fence" law, takes the po-
sition, it is understood, that there
is no necessity for any action by
the legislature at the coming ses-
sion, as the existing law clothing
police juries with authority to
deal with the question is suffici-
ent to cover the situation UNI
til such time as it may be deem
ed advisable to pass a statewide
mo fence" law. He, therefore,
is opposed to any action by the
legislature at the present ses-
sion.
The attitude, of the admins
tration is made known because of
an impression that has gone over
the State that legislation on the
subject will be attempted at the
extra session. In some sections
considerable feeling mas been
aroused over the issue. Organi-
cations are being perfected in
Vernon and Beauregard parishes
to send delegations here to OPP
pose no fence" bills, according
to statements by DIR. F. P. Jones
and P. L. Ferguson, who came
to Baton Rouge to ascertain the
governors plans. The COVER
nor assured them. they said,
that no mo fence" bills will be
introduced with administration
support.

is necessary that some steps be
taken Immediately toward a more

Mr.. Perkins says. and the most
apparent remedy is the construc-
ton of individual potato storage
houses.
"Old cabins. cotton houses,

may be remodeled so as to give
the proper conditions for curing
potatoes at very low COST Mr..

lieve that in some sections logs
may be used with perfect success
in building houses of small capa-

ready to furnish plans for the
construction of potato curing
houses, and to assist in making
plans for the remodeling of ole
houses as suggested by Mr.

Mr.. Hardtner's Views on Fence Law
and Tick Eradication.


Mr.. Henry E. Hardtner, of
Urania, has written a letter to
Prof. w. r. Dodson, of Baton
Rouge, in which he gives his
views on the mo fence" law and
eradication of the cattle tick.
A copy of the letter was also
sent to the Chronicle, which is
as follows:
Urania, La, Sept. 3, 1921.
Prof. W. R. Dodson, Baton Rouge, La.
Dear Sir::-Two things defeat
ed the plan for tick eradication.
First the failure of the State to
provide watts and sufficient funds
to carry on the work at the very
beginning. Second. divided au-
thority. We had Federal, State,
parish and local supervisors and
inspectors. Each police juror
named inspectors in his own ward
and the jobs became political and
and sinecures. With so much
divided authority thescheme had
to fall. In the beginning we had
fairly good cooperation from the
people. but when they realized
that under the system the work
would go on indefinitely they be-
came discouraged. | have no
suggestions to make for a con-
tinuance of the work. We and
most Of our neighbors will con-
tinue to dip our cattle, as we
have done for years before the
compulsory law went into effect.
A fence law would create a
condition bordering on anarchy
in many hill parishes. such as
VIM and LaSalle, where fully
$3.50 of the land is wild and open.
1t would not be conservation to
let so much pasturage go to
waste. | am growing trees on
all of my denuded forest lands
and / do not find that cattle
grazing is in the least injurious
to reforestation. In fact / con-
slider it help. We have several
thousand acres under fen C e
where we are conducting special
experiments in forestry, cattle
and game raising. AS long as
our open lands or idle lands are
not being used, the people GER
tainly have a right to Craze their
cattle on this open range.
am opposed to fence law
unless the people Of a parish OF
ward say by their votes that they
want it. There are parishes and
wards like Lincoln where the
population is largely engaged in
agricultural pursuits and the peo-
pile find it cheaper to fence in
their stock than to fence in their
crops, and when that condition
exists in other parishes no doubt
the same course will be followed.
/ Iregret to see the unrest and
turmoil that exists, and | an
ready at any time to discuss
Questions of public interest and
assist in the solution of the great
problems.
Yours very truly.
