BETTER TILLAGE FOR FARMS
Small Acreage Is More Profitable
When Properly Cared for Than
Large Tracts.

A small farm we'll titled will give
better returns than large acreage
poorly cared for. If more farmers
would learn this lesson, which the
gardener learned long ago, we would
have better farms and the owner would
likely have more ready money.-LeRoy
Cady, associate horticulturist. Univer-

!. Shipments Falling OFF

Produce shipments over the Della
ware division of the Pennsylvania rail-
road fell off considerably last week ac-
cording to the report issued Monday by
Leon Stein, supervising agent of the
division.
The slump in total shipments points
to the diminution of the large supply
of produce that has been sent over the
road this year. This has been ban
ner year in the history of the produc'
ton of Delaware produce and it is re-
ported that farmers and fruit growers
have reaped a large profit from the
over abundance of good crops that set:
this year apart as unequaled for many
decades.

WILLIAMS CLEARED OF SERIOUS CHARGE Local Man Acquitted Following
 Court Trial WOMAN PITCHER COMING
Aces VIII Have Miss Mabel Traycrs of Waterbury, Former Exhibition Player For the New York Giants, At Local Field Sunday-Items

Jasper Williams of Broad street, Planville, was acquitted in the local court by Judge Merritt O. Ryder last night on charges of dubious nature brought against him by Carl Mayes of New York city. Williams, who has been employing Mrs. Florence Mayes, wife of the plaintiff as his house. keeper for several years, was charged with misconduct by Mir. Mayes. There was not enough evidence. however, to prove the case and Mir Williams was discharged
 The complaint was made to the town of Painville which in turn, se- cured counsel and had Attorney Jos- eph M. Donovan of Bristol, as its representative. Mir Williams had At torney P. F. McDonough of New Brit ain for his lawyer.
 Mir. Williams and Mrs. Mayes had several witnesses on their side to tes- tify in regards to their conduct and it was on the strength of their ex- cellent testimony that Williams was acquitted A paper was also present ed to the court, signed by many of the neighbors, telling of the conditions at the home which appeared to favor the defendants in the case.
 Mir Mayes in his charges, says that he has not been in Plainville since 1915. He alleges that a child had since been born to Mrs. Mayes. His testimony on that part, however, was crushed when six witnesses came for ward and swore that he had been seen in Plainville on numerous occa sons after that date. Mrs. Mayes now has two children.
 Attorney McDonough scored Mayes when he found out that the plaintiff had recently served a jail sentence in New York for an alleged misde- meanor.
 The court room was cleared of spectators when the trial started and only the persons implicated in the case were allowed to be present
 Grand Juror Stanley s. Gwillim acted as prosecutor for the state.

Middletown, N. r., Sept. 2o.-ofi- cials of the New York Ontario & Western railway yesterday definitely rejected union proposition to enter into negotiations with the Federated Union of System Shopcraft Workers for the purpose of suggesting terms Upon which a settlement of the shop strike might be reached.
 General Manager J. H. Nuelle, re- spending to letter he received from William E. Appel, system chairman of the shop unions. said in effect that his office door stands open to the former employees as individuals, but is closed to negotiations with the union as an organization. Former employees wishing to return to work should visit the employment office of the company, Mir.
