SUSSEX ORCHARD|STS ON
FINE FRUIT INSPECTION TRIP
FRUIT GROWERS SPEND DAY IN
ORCHARDS NEAR BRIDGEVILLE
All Orchards Have Excellent Crops
and Big Shipments Are Expected
Down the Peninsula

Delaware and Maryland orchardists
under the supervision of Sussex Coun-
ty Agent Vaughn made an inspection
of orchards in the vicinity of Bridge
vile last Wednesday. The first or
chard visited was that of G. A. Hill,
who has 27 acres of apples and 25
acres of peach trees ranging in age
from one to siXty-five years. Mr..
Hill explained that he had resorted to
dusting for the past four years with
exceptionally good results. The or
chard of Myers & Son, containing ten
acres of trees forty-fve years old,
probably the oldest trans-planted trees
in America, was next visited. The
party then visited the orchard of 7.
S. Smith & Sons, where forty-five
acres are planted with trees ranging
in age from two to fifteen years. Here
some tree surgery was viewed, which
had been made necessary as the result
of wind and electrical storm in 1915.
Following this inspection the party
was entertained at dinner by the
Bridgeville Packing Association at
their plant, served by the wives of the
stockholders. DR.. ]. F. Adams, as
sOciate plant pathOlOgist of the Uni
versity of Delaware, spoke on or
chards and the diseases which affect
trees and the manner of control.
Agent Wilson, of Kent county, adj
dressed the members of the party on
the control of the cutting moth. Agent
Vaughn, of Sussex county, after a
short talk, invited the interested grow
ers to a demonstration on the Elliott
farm on July 3. A visit was then
made to the farm of S. Z. Etaples,
where experiments of fertilizer on
peach trees were discussed and where
DR.. Adams made a short address on
| the apple blight, which had affected
the orchard and which was now un-
der control. The orchard contains
seventy acres Of peach and twenty
acres of apple trees. A tour was
made through the Delaware Apple
Farm, where eight hundred and fifty
acres are set out in trees from nine
to ten years old. On the farm of AL
fred Carey an orchard thirty years old
was found to have developed the
blight within the past few days. On
Harry Johnson's farm exceptionally
fine seven-year-old trees were found
laden with fruit and in an excellent
state of cultivation. The fruit grow
ers felt greatly indebted for the bene-
fetal instruction obtained and learning
that all orchards have an excellent
crop and expect large shipments.

FARMERS IN PISTOL BATTLE
Lively Row at Home of Daniel Mercer
Near Leipsic, Without Serious Result

DOver's police force and state and
county officers were aroused around
midnight Thursday on a call from the
home of Daniel Mercer, a farmer liv-
ing on the road from Dover to Leipsic,
where an alleged attempt at breaking
in the house was reported. Sheriff
Graham, Chief of Police Lane and
Night Watchman Dickerson hurried to
the Mercer home to find that man
named Seyler, whose wife the MERGERS
had taken in some days ago, had made
an attempt to get into the house by
way of an upstairs window, with the
aid Of a ladder. On the arrival of the
officers Seyler could not be found.
Mercer, who without arms, was loaned
a revolver by one of the officers re-
turning to Dover, thinking Seyler
might have started for that town.
Seyler, however, seems to have been
in hiding and as soon as the officers
got out Of sight, he sought Mercer
who was near his home, and a pistol
battle began. Mercer, fearing for his
life and seeing an approaching auto
mobile coming from toward Leipsic,
ran out in the road and called for help.
also attempting to jump on the run
ming board of the car. The occupants
of the machine, thinking a hold-up
was being staged, put on speed and
hurried to Dover, giving the alarm.
The officers, with others available,
secured cars and returned to the Mer-
GER home, but could find neither Mer-
Ger nor Seyler, and it was feared that
one or both had been killed. Mercer's
wife in the meantime had collapsed
from the excitement and Dr. Mcdaniel
of Dover was summoned to render
medical aid. The search for Mercer
and Seyler was kept up by the officers
and while searching the premises of
an uncle of Seyler, the latter ran from
an outbuilding, between the officers,
who were taken so by surprise that he
made his escape, although the officers
fired several times toward him. Mer-
Ger in the meantime, running out of
| ammunition, sought refuge at the
home of a farmer fully a mile from
his home and remained there until an
early hour this morning when the Of
ficers were apprised of his where
abouts and took him back to his home.
Mercer was in no way injured. Seyler
was still sought, but no trace of him
was found until about 4.30 o'clock Fri
day morning, when he appeared at the
home of M. A. Frazier, just north of
the Dover mill pond, where Seyler and
Mercer had worked Thursday in a
sand pit, Seyler coming back after a
pair of shoes. The officers were no.
tilted of his appearance and set out to
capture him, but so far have failed to
locate him. The trouble between Mer-

UPHELD BY COURT
Summons in Suit Served on
Sunday, Not Saturday,
Is Ruling.

The Board of Aldermen and MavOr
Hylan to-day received the approval
Of the Appellate Division in the mat
ter of pushing the hands of Father
Knickerbocker's clock ahead one hour
during periods of daylight saving.
The matter came to an issue on a
motion made by Albert Stickney,
counsel for Nellie Kenefick, executrlx
of the last will end testament of
William Kenefick,. to vacate service
OF summons and complaint on his
client on the ground that it was not
effective until 1915 A. NJ, Sept. II,
last, which was Sunday. William X.
Griffin, counsel for Jess Briegel, VINO
believed that he had legally begun a
suit against Mrs. Kenefick and othe y,
told the court that Mrs. Kenefick
had actually been served on Satrr-
day, Sept. 10, at Ills p. NJ, that
her motion to set aside had Deen
based upon daylight saving time"
In its opinion, written by Justice
Alfred r. Page, the Appellate Divi-
sion points out that the Legislature
empowered municipalities to adopt
daylight saving time acts and that
daylight saving is legal.
