TELLS HNTUCKIANS
T0RAISE APPLES

Lexington. KY. March S-Why
go to the Pacific coast to raise
fruit, asks c. w. Mathews, head
of the horticultural department
of the State College of Agricul-
ture. The question was propound
ed in a statement on the poten-
tialities of Kentucky as an apple
growing state.
Color doesn't make the apple"
said Prof. Mathews. .In fact it
merely makes it look better and
| is obtained at a higher cost
apple growing in Kentucky las
before it a promising future
which if properly developed will
make the state one of the best in
the union for the growing of the.
crop, according to the statement.
Practically everything necessary
for the successful growing of the
fruit, including markets. is avail
able. He declared that he could
see no necessity for going to the
hieh-priced fruit lands of the Pa
cifc Coast in order to grow the
crop when cheap lands in Ken
lucky can be made to grow ap-
pies equally as good as those
from the coast states.
Eastern Kentucky counties es-
pecially have a splendid oppor-
tunity for developing the apple
crop, according to Prof. Math-
ews. These counties have an I'M
limited market at their doors
(which can be utilized when the
trees in that section are properly
sprayed and taken care of. Elc-
waited tracts of land in the north
ern part of the state are also es-
pecially we'll adapted to the pro-
duction of the fruit and shout.
become an extensive apple grow
ing section. he said. Sections OF
Western Kentucky already have
developed the growing of apples
to a creditable degree.
At the present time there are
approximately fifteen varieties OF
'apples that are extensively
grown in Kentucky. according to
Prof Mathews. They are divid-
ed into the early, late fall. and
winter and winter classes. Polly
Fades, Yellow Transparent. Ear
ly Harvert, Liveland. Raspberry.
Maiden Blush. and Gravenstein
have proved to be the most pop
ular early varieties with Kentuc-
Ky growers. Grimes Golden and
Jonathan are the two most pop
ular late fall and early winter
varieties grown, while the Wine
sap family claims the popularity
ribbon for winter varieties. The
|Winesap itself is extensively
grown in Henderson county,
while the Stayman Winesap is
becoming popular over the state
in general. Mammoth Black
Twig is another popular member
of this family. ~E - ~
Other varieties which are meet
ing with favor with Kentucky
growers are the Delicious, York
Imperial and Rome Beauty.
Practically all varieties grown in
the state are of American origin.
Prof. Mathews said.
The Ben Davis variety is being
less generally planted than in for
mer years and has ceased to be a
popular type in Kentucky he said.
Markets are discriminating
against this variety which once
was good servant of the people,
he said.

Bootleggers Threaten To
 Go On Strike Unless Their
 Financial Demands Are Met

A threat which will throw con- sternation into the heart of many of our best citizens was made early to- day. The bootleggers are going to strike unless their demands on the financial interests are compiled with. The bootleggers. who are said to have a compact and powerful organization, with representatives all over New England, are tiring of taking all the risks in the gme, and are demanding that the big fellows who are backing the operation of unloading the enor- nous stores of liquor shall give them more protection than they have been getting. Hitherto the game has been to protect the big financial interests and let the bootleggers take the risk and the sentences in federal prisons
 Nearly s300,o0O,0 900 of whiskey certificates representing booze in bond are said to be held by New England banks, mostly in Boston. When Will liam J. Mccarthy was let out, a beau tiful plan is said to have been con- cocted whereby the whiskey was to be let out of bond into the hands of the bootleggers who were then to be told they would have to take their chances on disposing of 1t.

500 OHeld Up By Yellow
 Mill Bridge

More than five hundred persons were the goats this morning of the Yellow Mill bridge and dilapidated old junk wagon The wagon and the bridge contrived to cause a delay of nearly 30 minutes in the height of the rush hour this morning, and caused more than five hundred men and wo- men to report tardily for work.
 An old tumble down vehicle, re- sembling in form a wagon, piled high with fifty or more burlap bags filled with old rags lost a wheel in the mid dle of the car tracks at Connecticut and Stratford avenues about 7:45 this morning. Its position was such that trolley cars could not pass, all though automobiles and jitneys with some difficulty managed to squeeze by and continue on their way.
 The burlap bags were removed one by one and the ramshackle old wag- on pulled from the tracks after about fifteen minutes of hard labor Just as the way was cleared and the trol- leys started, the tender on the Yellow Mill bridge rushed out, closed both

Dry Spell Has Little Effect On
 Water Supply

Despite the pesky dry spell, '' father may continue to water that backyard garden without fear of ex- hausting the reservoirs. He may also save his lawn from slow cremation by the use of much needed aqua pura. There is no danger of a city water shortage.
 At the office of the Bridgeport Hydraulic company today. it was said that all of the reservoirs are full at the present time- Smaller ponds throughout this section are beginning to show signs of shrinking, but the streams which supply the larger lakes are not lowering to an appreciable extent.
 Shorter factory hours are one cause for a good supply of water. During normal times BridEeort'S daily con- sumption was 3S millions of gallons. but this has been reduced to 23 mill lions at present. Conditions indicate that the drought will have to con tinue for some time before Bridge port begins to suffer.

What Is Best Use For Plaza |?

How can the Plaza best be utilized for the benefit of the community? It is question which is becoming acute
 Should it be made trolley centre?
 Should it be extended to the harbor and beantifed a park?
 Should the movement to give Bridgeport better front door be continued?
 Should it be used a public gathering place for meetings?
 Should it be given glass roof and made to produce revenue by renting public market stalls?
 Should it be made site for the erection of great public auditorium in memory of the heroes of the Great War?
 Should 1t be made a site group of public build ings with a new Post Office in the centre?
 Should 1t be sold to a developing company for the erection of large community building to include theatres auditoriuns hotels city clubs, gymnasium the like?
 Should the City it for a large municipal building to house every branch of the City Govern ment?
 There are doubtless many in the City with ideas on the subject The Times invites them use it's col umns for placing these ideas before the public and will welcome and publish brief letters containing either new suggestions comments on the above.

Make eRecord
 In Putting In 1,45O Phones

Starting last Monday morning. workmen of the Southern New Eng land Telephone company succeeded in six working days, in changing 1,45o local pay station telephones to the prepayment system. The final touches were added late Saturday night, and it is believed that some thing of a record in this line of work has been established.
 Bridgeport telephone users were initiated on the new system today, and some little confusion was en- countered during the morning despite the fact that the change had been widely advertised. Some technical trouble is also being found today, but it is expected that the system will be perfected by tonight
 The prepayment plan is being generally adopted by all of the larger towns and cities of the state, but an immediate change cannot be carried out in all districts owing to a lack of equipment Manufacturers are rushing orders however. and the new system is being installed as rapidly as possible, cities nearest to New York being the first to make the change.
