RIDING
REGAINING OLD Time
POPULARITY IN CITY

The popularity of horseback riding
is coming back in Richmond, as we'll
as throughout the country, with a kick
that promises to dent considerably the
popularity of motor cars for JOY rid
ing. Not only the lone horseman, but
also calvacades of equestrians may be
seen on the streets or country roads
frequently and serve to remind one of
the times when horses and stables
were as common as are automobiles
and garages today.
The revived interest in this sport is
thus far unaccountable, according to
stable owners, but like everything else
can be attributed to the flappers. In
recent years only the inyeterate riders
have shown any interest in riding, but
now everyone is learning how.
Style Not Regarded
Thus far in Richmond little desire
or need for style when one rides has
been shown. Only few have come
out in fashionable habits. One need
not confine his riding to the early
morning, for, stable owners say, de-
mands are made equally throughout
the day and the week. Except for a
few, riders in this locality seem to
prefer the country road because of the
| slippery condition of the oiled streets.
A number of years ago when horse
back riding was not an unusual vogue
girls and boys learned to ride while
very young. Nevertheless there are
number of promising riders even of
advanced age. This pastime shows
possibilities of becoming more passing
than a fad, but, like ear puffs, once
tried, the individual cannot give it up.

TOMATOES ARE STAPLE.
CROP NEAR STRAUGHN;
BRING READY MONEY

SRAUGHNS, Ind, July 27-Raising
vegetable crops for the canning fac
tory is one of the occupations of farm
ers near here, a rather unusual one
made possible by the presence of a
factory in Straughns, which is one OF
chain including plants in knights
town, Dunreith. Spiceland and Car
thage
Tomatoes form one of the staple
crops, popular because of the ease of
production, says R. NJ. Pickering, liv-
ing west of Straughns. The Picker
ings have put in 10 acres of tomatoes
this year. and although this is their
first venture, they are well satisfied
with their crop prospects.
Yields of the tomatoes vary from
four to 10 tons an acre, dependent
upon the soil and the weather, and
average price of about $40 a ton is
paid. The farmers like few acres
as ready cash crop, and also ap-
prove the crop on account of the ease
of fitting it into rotation and the small
demands it makes upon the soil Re-
garding the latter point, records kept
by the county agent on 10 acre plot
which was half in tomatoes and half
in clover in 1921, showed yields of -
bushels of wheat from the clover land
and 81 bushels from the tomato land,
in 1922
Large Trade in Plants
From 5000 to $4,000 plants an acre
are needed for planting the plots, and
these, il not grown by the farmers,
can be obtained from greenhouses at
price ofltwo dollars a thousand. The
Spiceland greenhouse has a large
trade in the plants. The tomatoes are
set witt planter, similar to those
used for setting out tobacco, with a
barrel of water mounted on the ma.
chine. from which a liberal watering
is given each plant as it is set.
The easiest method of growing the
tomatoes is to plant the rows the
same width as corn rows and the
corn cultivators, without changing the
setting, are used for cultivating the
tomatoes, which is done at the same
time the corn fields are gone over
Hand hoeing also is practiced to fin.
ish cleaning up the rows.
One Rush Period
The only rush period in handling the
crop comes as is so often the case
in the horvest. However, there are
but few farmers unable to handle a
small patch in a pinch. and usually
what labor is necessary can be re
cruited from the neighboring towns
After the crop is harvested, it is
common practice to put the ground in
wheat, for which it is admirably pre-
pared. A large part of the 200 to 30G
pounds Of 1872 fertilizer which is ap
piled usually remains also to help out
with the next crop.

CHORUS GIRL TELLS
|. OF MURDER TODAY
Mrs. Peggy caffee Will Go on
Stand in Trial Of Chum,
Mrs. Phillips
ONLY KNOWN EYE WITNESS
BIZ Associated Prksa

Los Angeles, Oct. 27.-Mrs. Peggy
Ca1ee, former chorus girl, chum Of the
defendant, again today was the mag.
net which attracted many to the trial
of Mrs. Clara Phillips, charged with
numbering Mrs. Alberta Tremaine
Meadows with hammer.
Plans given out for calling Mrs
Caffee to the stand yesterday failed to
materializc. but the prosecution said
asked to testify today.
Mrs. Caffee, only known witness
to the Staying Of Mrs. Meadows, was
expected to repeat the story she told
the Los Angeles County Grand Jury
and upon which the indictment charg-
ing Mrs. Phillips with the murder was
based.
According to this story, she and Mrs.
Phillips rode with Mrs. Meadows in
the latter's automobile to n lonely spot
in an outlying section, where Mrs.
Phillips. after accusing Mrs. Meadows
of having accepted gifts from the de-
PENDANTS husband. Armour L. Phil

with a hammer.
Mrs. Phillips, late yesterday. for the
first time showed interest in the pro-
ceedings. For nearly two days Mrs.
Phillips has stared steadily at the
Judges bench in the courtroom where
she is on trial. Yesterday she watched
intently witnesses who told Of her
actions on the day Of the Staying and
consulted frequently with her attorney.
g. l.. Callahan, a guard, and Mrs.
Molly Swain, a clerk at the bank where
Mrs. Meadows was employed. told Of
visits to the bank by Mrs. Phillips on
the day of the Staying and of inquiries
she made for Mrs. Meadows. Mrs.
Swain said Mrs. Phillips requested that
Mrs. Meadows be not informed Of her
visit as she was friend and had come
from Arizona ''to surprise her."
Mrs. Harry Warren told of seeing
Mrs. Meadows and Mrs. caffec in n
coupe driven by Mrs. Phillips headed
in the direction Of Montecito drive.
where Mrs. Meadows body was found
later.
Oscar Hickman testified that while
herding stock near the drive the after
noon of the Staying he had seen
