FELTON,

Growers of small fruits in the vi
cinity of FELTON, are facing a serious
loss from freezing and frost, which
have been usual for the past week in
this vicinity. 1t is believed that a
very large part of the strawberry crop
is destrOyed-as the centre of the
blooms already open, are black and
dead, when they should be a bright
yellow The unopened blooms show
more than fifty per cent of the blooms
black and dead, in some of the fields
this applies to the early varieties es-
pecially. The later varieties are not
hurt so bad. The peaches, apples,
pears and cherries seem to have es-
capped better-but they are badly hurt
in most orchards.
The cold weather has frustrated the
plans of the farmers, who had outlin-
ed their work and expected to plant
corn and set plants for hardy crops
this week. It seems unfortunate to
have this bareback of cold weather to
blast the expectations of the farmers,
after the bad season of 1921. We are
still hoping that the crops of melons
and other truck which brings money
to the growers, will be larger and
more profitable, to make up for the
loss of the berries and other fruits.
The crop of last year was a sad eX-
perience for the farmers, who do not
feel they should have a similar eXper-
ience again this season.
The w. C. T. U. held social meet
ing at the home of Mrs. Benjamin Gov
erdale, which was addressed by Mr..
HUM. who spoke of the duties of all
the people to see that law enforce
ment is carried out. We have laws
against stealing-but people steal and
are punished-so it will be with the
enforcement of prohibition, unless ev-
erybody gets down to the fact, that it
is their duty to see that the laws are
enforced.
DR.. Joseph Bringhurst is slowly re-
gaining his health, but it yet in very
week condition. He is popular with

his services greatly. NJ
Mrs. Edward Harriet, who is IN thel
Milford Hospital, continues to i'm
prove, so reports tell the friends.
The M. P. Minister, Rev. M. Smith,
arrived in FELTON, last Saturday to
take charge of his appointment by the
last Conference. His predecessor,
Rev. Butler, resigned from preaching
and will move to a place near Eel
ton-he will continue his work as a
barber in FELTON,.
John Carson and family have been
entertaining Julius Carson and ram
lily, Mrs. Agnes Carson, Mrs. Ella
Sharp and James Hurd.
A motor party composed OF Mrs.
John Carson and daughter, Mrs. Eliz-
abeth Hill, and her son, motored TO

The freezing weather and heavy

has caused a feeling of gloom to set

of this part of Sussex county. It
seems a doubly heavy blow to have to
after the almost total de-
struction of the fruit crop of last year.
seem to have suffered
most of all the early fruit-as nearly
all of the early blooming varieties
seem to be a total loss. The peach and
apples show some healthy looking
buds, but the continuous recurrence of /
frost each morning, coupled with cold
winds during the day, is dangerous
condition against any kind of real
crop this season.

We have had some heavy frosts the

FOREIGN AFFAIRS

During the first six months of the
year the guerrilla warfare between the
British forces in Ireland and the Irish
republicans" continued undated.
Murders by the Sim Feiners and re-
prisals by the British were Of almost
daily occurrence. The Irish were espe-
cfally exasperated by the execution of
number Of prisoners convicted Of
completely In the killing of soldiers.
The appointment of Lord Talbot. lead
Ing British Roman Catholic. as lord
lieutenant Of Ireland, failed of its eff
feet. On May Is the Sim Feiners
burned the Dublin custom house. and
on June 80 they reelected Eamonn de
Valera president Of the Irish repub-
lie" Meanwhile the new government of
northern Ireland was organized, with
Sir James Craig as premier, and on
June % King George went across to
open the Ulster parliament. De Valera
on July 9 accepted the invitation of
Premier Lloyd George to a conference
in London, and truce was announced.
Then began the series Of negotiations
that lasted through the remainder Of
the year. Offers and counter-offers
We're made, and finally Britain prof
fered Ireland full status as dominion
within the empire, to be known as the
St. Tammany farmer. [volume] (Covington, La.) 1874-current, 1922-01-14
DOMESTIC AFFAIRS

During the early part Of the year
the country was preparing for the
change Of administration on March 4.
Presldent-elect Harding resigned as
senator from Ohio on January 9, and
the next day he asked that prepara-
tons for an elaborate Inauguration be
cancelled, feeling that 1t would be in
consistent with the urgent need for
economy. On February 10 Mr.. Har-
ding announced the appointment Of
Charles q. Hughes as his secretary of
state-a choice that met with general
approval-and on succeeding days he
completed his cabinet with these
names: Secretary of the treasury, An
drew w. Mellon; secretary Of war,
John w. Weeks; attorney general,
Harry M. Daugherty; postmaster gen
eral, VIII Fl. Hays; secretary of the
navy, Edwin DENLY; secretary Of the
interior, Albert B. Fall: secretary Of
agriculture, Henry G. Wallace; secre-
tary Of commerce, Herbert G. Hoover:
secretary Of labor, James j. Davis. Mr..
Harding was inaugurated on March 4
with simple. dignifed ceremony, and
President Wilson, despite his contin-
ued illness, was able to be present.
The senate, in extra session, confirmed
the cabinet and number Of other ap-
pointments, and adjourned on March
Is.
On the first day Of the year General
CroWder was sent By President Will
son to Cuba to see what could be done
to restore financial and economic con-
