SPARK FROM THRESHER
DESTROYS RUPERT BARN
Miss Jane Marvel Discovers
Morning Blaze on Farm Near
Her Fathers Place.

Fire. which was started by a spark
from an engine being used in thresh-
ing wheat, this morning practically
destroyed the barn and most of its
contents on the farm of Charles g.
Rupert. at Sedgely. The contents in
cluded 120 tons Of hay. several hum
dred bushels OF wheat and some calves.
The building was old and not very
valuable. but the contents destroyed
are estimated 10 have been valued
from SO 1000 to $4,000. All the live
stock which was stabbed in the barn
in addition 10 the calves was removed
before the FIRE had gained much head
way.
Miss Jane Marvel, daughter of Josiah
Marvel. whose farm adjoins that Of
the Ruperts. discovered the blaze and
hurriedly telephoned the local fire de-
nartment. Several fire engines were
sent TO the scene, but all efforts TO
extinguish the fire proved futile. How
ever. the fremen succeeded in pre-
venting the spread OF the blaze to a
creamery and farm house nearby.
The residence Of the Rupert family,
who are now touring Europe, is about
a quarter. Of mile from the barn
and farmhouse and was not within
reach of the fire.

SHIPMENTS FROM
|. PENINSULA TOWNS
EXCEED LAST YEAR
Cantaloupes, Berries, Water
melons Far Ahead; Peaches,
Apples and Grapes Fall Off.
CITY FARMERS AT WORK

Despite the heavy frosts of early
spring, which entailed a serious loss
to fruit and produce growers through
out the Peninsula towns, the Pennsyl-
vania railroad, according TO statistics
| made public today, has experienced a
greater volume OF business in its sum-
mer shipments this year, than was
recorded for the corresponding period
OF last year.
During May, June and July, and up
TO August 20. inclusive. shipments
over the various branches leading out
OF Delaware and Maryland have been
exceptionally heavy. on branches
from Farnhurst. Franklin City. Del
mar. Chestertown. Central Oxford and
! Cambridge the volume of trade has
shown a tendancy 10 increase instead
of decrease
Exceptionally heavy during this
| period was the shipment of canta-
/ icupes. A total of 1872 carriers of
this fruit was recorded. compared with
/ 1851 carriers for the corresponding
| period of last year.
The shipment of berries was also
heavy. During the present season a
total of e,19o,351 quarts Of berries
passed over the various branches of
the Pennsylvania railroad, compared
with 5,33s. .7e5 quarts last year.
One hundred and thirty carloads Of
watermelons passed over the road
during the present period. compared
with 13 carloads last year.
Probably the greatest loss resulting
from the early frosts, was felt in the
shipment of peaches and grapes. This
summer but S6S baskets OF peaches
were shipped. Last year the number
OF baskets of peaches shipped totalled
1s5, PA.
A slight falling off in the shipment
of cucumbers was also noted, there
having been recorded by the railroad
total of 79.40s hampers shipped,
compared with 105,421 hampers in
1920. The apple crop was also serious
iy affected by the frost. This year the
shipment of apples reached 1920
baskets. compared with 624,459
baskets in 1920.
Tomatoes shipped throughout the
Peninsula totalled 2,115 baskets, COM
pared with 4,65s baskets for the cor
responding period of last year. Bar
rels of white potatoes shipped totalled
1e5, ,359, compared with 277.05S for the
same period of last year. The number
OF barrels shipped of sweet potatoes
shipped was also greater, there hav-
ing been 1885 barrels Of sweets"
shipped this summer. compared with
60,ls2 barrels last year.
The movement of refrigerating
cars over the branch roads Of the
Pennsylvania railroad during the
period ending August 20, reached a
high mark at 1872. For the same
period during 1920. but 1885 cars
were recorded.
While the consumptive demand is
not large at the present time, rail-
road officials believe that more fruit
and produce is being consumed this
year than ever before. However. 1t
was pointed out, the city farmer has
been active during the past summer
months and because of this. the dis
posing of fruits and produce by the
down State grower is greatly affected.
