INN HAS HISTORIC INTEREST

Hundreds Of Years.

One of the oldest and most distin-
guished hostelries in the United States
Is the Canoe Place inn, between Shin
necock and Peconic bay, on Long Is
land sound. The charter of this fine,
old, rambling, red-brick structure was
signed by Queen Anne, but the inn was
doing a thriving business years pre-
vious to this. An Interesting figure
is the venerable figurehead Of the fri
gate Ohio, which, after an honorable
service, was displaced by the ironclad
and finally broken up in the waters
which was the cove. One Of the most
massive Of existing figureheads, 1t WIS

much ceremony, to this government.
1t shows Hercules in impressive pose
and was warranted by the Greek
donors to possess magic gifts. One Of
the most valuable sets Of registers to
be found in this country Is to be exam

autographs begin In 1859 with the
mark of Wyandach, grand sachem OF
the Montauks, and include famous col

prepared by the United States Department
OF Agricultural
Peas, sometimes spoken of as Eng
llsh peas. are adapted for growing
from the Gulf of Mexico to Canada,
and from Maine to California, with
the exception of few local sections
where they do not thrive. Peas re-
quire too much space for growing ex-
tensively in the small garden, say spe-
cialists of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, but are especially
adapted to the farm garden.
In Florida and certain of the gulf
coast regions the seed is planted in
the fall and the peas gathered during
the first days Of spring. Farther north
the seed is planted in February and
March and the peas ready for use in
May and June. Going still farther
into New England and the northwest
they are planted in April and ready
for use In July or August, all depend.
ent. however. upon the locality. In the
southern district, where the ground
rarely ever freezes, the seeds are
planted about ~ inches deep, but far
Their north where late freezes are
liable to form heavy crust over the
ground the seed should be covered
three to four inches in light. sandy
soils but not quite so deep in heavier
or clay soils. al.
f. Alaska or Earliest of All Is consid-
cred one of the best of the early va
rieties and easy to grow. One pint Of
seed of the Alaska will plant about
100 feet of row, and while It Is de-
strable to have brush or wire netting
for them to climb on, they may be
grown without any support whatever.
Gradus, Thomas Laxton, American
Wonder, Sutton's Excelsior and Lax.
tonian are among the best early peas.
Telephone and Mammoth podded sugar
are among the best late sorts. All of
the later varieties need a irellis or
brush to climb upon.

disease known as blackhead which has
caused heavy losses, and in some, in
stances the business has been given up
entirely for this reason. These causes
Of loss together with the frequent raw
ages Of wild animals including dogs
and rats, have all tended to discourage
development Of the industry. !.
The raising Of turkeys may be a
very profitable occupation where there
is an abundance OF range, ample feed,
and reasonable freedom from preying
animals, the department states. Even
for those who have limited range
there are opportunities for raising a
few turkeys each year If proper time
and attention" are devoted to it. The
department points out, however, the
desirability Of those who enter the
business to study it thoroughly in all
its features.
90. Difficult to Ship Alive. !.
It is very difficult, to ship turkeys
alive to market since the sErinkage is
very heavy. Ordinarily turkeys do not
eat very much when confined, and
therefore they are usually killed and
dressed locally and then shipped to
market, packed in barrels or boxes.
Turkeys, like chickens, may be either
scalded or dry picked, but the dry
picked birds are preferred in most
markets because they keep better, and
1nccnS 0p fhoin cIphCfQ
by reason of great deal of the soluble
substance being removed by soaking
in water or by packing in Ice. There
are conditions, of course, where there
is no alternative but to pack the birds
in ice and ship them in bar
rels. The objection to scalded-dressed
birds does not obtain to the same ex-
tent where the birds are dressed: and
sold immediately to the consumer. -
Turkeys mature and fleshen very
much better IN the fall when the at
mosphere is crisp and fairly cold, such
as prevails for some weeks preceding
the holiday season. During this sea-
son the BIRDS are in greatest demand,
although the GOLD storage product may
be had at all seasons. Warm weather
during the week preceding the holt
days has a marked effect on demand,
and, other conditions being equal, the
quality Of dressed turkeys for the hol-
iday market may be predicted to a
great degree by weather conditions
during the fall season.

IMAM FROM HELL'S RIVER"
'T'T ~ AT GRAND THEATRE SUNDAY

The vivid, colorful, turbulent life
of the Canadian Northwest forms the
background for the stirring action
of "The Man From Hell's River"
coming to the Grand theatre for two
days beginning Sunday. 1t is the
work Of James Oliver Curwood who
has written many successes for the
screen: Irving Cummings, who d.
rected the feature, also plays the
leading role-that of an officer in
the Royal Northwest Mounted Police.
The story is one that requires the
lest sort of acting to put it. over,
and Cummings naturalness gives it
its big appeal. He returns from the
frozen north to find his sweetheart
the wife of a vicious renegade. How
he triumphs in one Of the most
crashing climaxes of the screen is
enough to send shivers up and down
the spine of the spectator. To see
it will make you clutch your seat
and hang on to the finish. In the
supporting cast are Eva Novak, Wal
lace Berry, and Rim tin, the mighty
dog of valor.

It was cherry time and Richard in
sisted on running out in the orchard
and eating the half-ripe cherries. His
mother told him how much better it
would be for every one If he only left
the cherries until they were ripe, so
they could be enjoyed. She also
warned him she would punish him if
he went to the orchard again.
Soon she saw him pulling off the
green cherries and she went out and
cut tiny switch from the tree. Rich.
ard saw her coming toward him,
switch in hand, and the little lad said
to her earnestly:
Mother, If you had only left that
switch on the tree just think what a
