possibilities of strong plays of light

The John Levy gallery announces its
sale to New York collector Of George
Fuller's ,"Maidenhood," painted in
1881. Fuller's "Fedalma" is said to
have sold for $4,000, and the. Levy ex.
ample is understood to have fetched
price close to that record figure,
An interesting exhibition at the Hill
gallery is devoted entirely to ecclesi-
atical work. AS an appropriate setting
for an ancient wood carving Of Christ
are number of decorative paintings
by Carl Schmitt, and examples Of mod
ern stained glass by Mary F. Vessel
hoeft. The portraits of st. John, the
Dalmation Madonna and Ruth are clev-
erly expressive and picturesquely car
ried out in neutral shades. Several
religious group subjects done in fiat,
deep tones possess certain archaic
dignity. Miss Dorothea Litzinger
also has tender Interpretation of the
Madonna in her "Offering Of Spring"
The Dreicer collection, recently ac-
quired by the Metropolitan Museum,
will be the subject Of special study in
course given through the Columbia

part an appreciation Of art through a
study of the museum originals. The
subject for the winter session, opening
this week, is Sculpture and the Deco

eighteenth-century American furniture.
Special emphasis is laid on the plate
ware. The event will continue until

ganizations working along similar lines
are now available, is certainly a matter
for eongratulation and not the reverse.
It must be admitted that the film has
unique ability to impart information i'm
mediately. exactly, vividly, and in such
a way as to be readily retained. "Things
may go in one ear and out the other"
asserts the scientist, but they do not go
in one eye and out the other"
As to the argument that the pictures
amuse boys and girls. Professor Turner
finds that to amuse is not in itself a
crime; but with those who advance this
objection, he inquiries is not the real
point the fact that the particular film in
question amuses without instructing?
This fear of the amusement side of
the films has a historical origin, and
shows that the general public is not in
formed regarding bona-fide educational
films correlated with the textbooks" !"
states Professor Turner. Until the pres
ent time the motion picture has existed
primarily for amusement purposes. When
we think of the screen, therefore, we
think of being entertained and not in
structed Indeed most of the so-called
educational films on the theatre circuit
are of necessity built with amusement
as the primary feature. The reason for
this is obvious. If they did not amuse,
people would not pay to see them and
theaters would not run them.i They are
planned and produced on an entirely diff
ferent basis than would have been the
case if their sole purpose had been ed
ucation. In genuine educational films,
amusement and every other interest are
subordinated to the development of the
Institutional phase of the subject.
Il have shown such films to a great
many educators" declared Professor Tur-
ner, without once having the amuse-
ment objection raised; nor will it ever be
raised against any film prepared by
thoughtful and experienced educators
purely for educational purposes"
It is not enough III conducting a screen !
lesson to run a film and let it rest there.
The teacher who uses a film without pre-
liminary or follow-up work, and the tea
cher who allows the pupil to sleep thru
his preparation period, never checking up
his knowledge, go together-and, adds |
Professor Turner, 1.-THE quicker they go |
the better"
As an illustration of the saving of time |
and expense afforded by the motion pic
ture, he quotes his own experience in the
use of a film describing fundamental
methods of waste disposal in cities "By
a fifteen-minute showing of this film it
was possible to secure results which
could not otherwise have been secured
except by taking the class on a full-day
field trip. Such a trip, for a class of $50,

pense of $780,

have told you the tomato requires a
temperate climate and a long growing
season. The Florida growers start their
plants in November and December and
have fruit ready for market in January,
and on until the weather gets too hot
By May and June their tomatoes are
out of the green market. You can start
your plants in February and by the use
of the hot bed cold frame, and trans
planting cup, the May June and early
July period can be filled in from this
territory with stock as good or better
than the Florida goods The prices OBJ
tanned usually justify the additional eX-
pense that would Of necessity be incur
red. The remainder of the crop would be
taken by the local packers Southern
New Jersey, 100 miles north of us, has
demonstrated for many years that this
is the better way to handle the tomato
crop The farmers have found so much
profit in it that growing them for the
canning house is side issue. If half
the tomato growers of this Peninsula
will devote themselves to this phase of
the business, the coming year. the re-
manning half will have a better market
at the factory ana our banks next 1al
will have such a large surplus of deposz
its that money in plenty will be avail
able at low rates of interest and our to-
mato industry will be saved from poss-
ible extinction.
Before closing, l must call your atten-
ton to the close relationship between
the grower and the packer of tomatoes.
OF late years, there has been tendency
to create a breach in this relationship
sometimes on the part of the packer to
drive the price of raw stock too low, and
sometimes on the part of the farmer to
demand q price above that which the
packer can afford to pay and live. At this
vital point, good common horse sense is I
invaluable The grower and packer are
like the Siamese Twins, to live they must
not be separated. Each is dependent on
the other for his very existence. If differ
ences arise, better sit down around a
table together and settle the troubles
there. You cannot afford to fight. You
cannot afford to hate.
Milford chronicle., 1922-02-17

There has never been a time in the
history of fruit growing in the United
States when there was such a great
opportunity for the grower of fruit as
there is today.
Usually it is either dangerous OF
] foolish to make such a fatfOoted state
ment as this in connection with any
agricultural or horticultural undertake
| ing.
But in this particular case, the
statement can be backed up with
mathematical proof. The following
figures in the official census for 1920
just published, speak for themselves:
1910 1920
Apple trees in
bearing -....-.-.-.151 ,322,S4O 115, ,265, ,O29
Peach trees in
bearing - 94,5O6,647 65,654,921
That is a DECREASE in bearing
Apple trees of 24@o; and DECREASE
in bearing Peach trees of 300.
Big Decrease Also in Trees That
Haven't Reached Bearing Age
The above figures are startling
enough in themselves but even more
remarkable-and of even greater i'm
portance from the point of view of the
man who is thinking of setting out
fruit-are the figures concerning the
number of young trees in the country.
These are the trees which have not
yet reached bearing age, and upon
which depend any possible increase in
the fruit crops for the coming five
to ten years.
The fact that there is no possibil-
ity that the decline in old trees will
be made up by the young trees now
coming on, is shown by the following
figures, also taken from the last cen
sus:
Apple Trees not
yet in bearing 65,791,S4S S6,171 ,6O4
Peach Trees not
yet in bearing AZ, ,266,243 21,629,657
In other words, DECREASE in
non-bearing Apple trees of 409o, and a
DECREASE in non-bearing Peach
trees of 1870.
A large percentage of even such
young trees as there are will, of
course never produce enough fruit to
amount to anything. Many are aband-
oned so that they die outright; and
others are so neglected that the crops
they yield never reach market.
The great falling off in planting dur
ing the past five years has been due
to the great scarcity Of labor to do the
work; the scarcity of fruit trees, and
the high prices for other farm crops.
The situation now is absolutely re-
versed. There is plenty of labor avail
able; the prices on general farm
crops during the last two seasons
have been unproftably low; and
while the price of fruit trees it not
Milford chronicle., 1922-02-17

quite back to where it was before the
war, there never was a time when the
price of the trees, compared to what
the first crop is almost sure to bring,
was so little.
Fruit Trees Planted This Year Will
Begin Bearing Under Most Favor
able Market Conditions That
Have Ever Existed
On top of this decline IN the pro-
ductiOn of fruit there has been, of
| course, a constant increase in the pop
ulation. Furthermore the demand,
per capita. for fruit is undoubtedly
greater today than it ever has been.
The production of fruit is different
from the production Of grains and
vegetables i'm that it is not possible
to jump from under production and
high prices to over production and
low prices which leave absolutely no
profit, as has so often been the case
with corn and wheat, or potatoes.
Furthermore, the marketing of
fruits, particularly apples and peach
es, has been so improved in recent
years that the old evils of local dis
tributiOn and glutted market have
been very largely overcome. The 4
work done both by the cooperative
market associations, and by the big
distributing companies, has been of
tremendous benefit even to the small |
grower who sells in his local market. !
Considering all the factors in the !
case, there can be no doubt that the /
first crops of fruits from trees set at |
this time will be-put on the market /
under more favorable conditions than /
have ever existed in the past.
Only Small Capital Needed To Start
Farm Orchards
There is probably no other farm in /
vestment that can be made where so /
big future return can be reasonably
counted upon, as the original invest
ment required for an orchard.
The farmer who already has his
equipment of teams, plOws, harrows,
and so forth, need lay out very little
actual cash to start a good sized or
chard.
Peach trees, with good care, can
yield crop that will bring in some
cash the third year,--and apples, ac-
cOrding to varieties and conditions, re-
quire five to nine years. The fact that
returns are not more immediate is an
advantage rather than drawback,
because if a crop could be obtained
from a new planting the first or sec
ond season, there would be immediate
ly such an overproduction that prices
would fall below the profit level It
is the long-headed, practical farmer
who is so situated that he can afford
to wait a few years and get big re-
turns from his investment who should
plant fruit-and who will make mon
ey doing it.
