ASHEYILLE QUIET
ABOUT YARD AREA
Traffic Paralyzcd All Night by Refusal
OF Yard Men to Work.

u
Asheville, n. &C., Sept. 3.--With men
at work in the shops and yard crews
working, as a result Of all guards be-
ing removed from the Southern rail-
way yards and around the shops, the
strike situation here is quiet tonight,
following two nights of unrest, marked
by fircmcn, switchmen and hostlers
leaving their jobs at various intervals,
claiming that the railway company
had failed to keep the agreement to re-
move all guards.
Traffic was paralyzed in the yards
from If o'clock Saturday night to Z
o'clock this morning and no freight
trains were dispatched from Asheville
during this period.
A slight delay in early morning
trains was caused by firemen refus-
ing to work, asserting that the agree
ment in regard to the guards had been
broken, but after a short conference
with officials, went on duty, and trains
moved without further delay.
Craft officials said, however, that
the men will work without further in
terruption of yard service, provided
the yard men do not come in contact
with guards.

Farming Plans For September
(By G. l.. Vaughan, County AgcnD

* i
This is the month for Alfalfa SOW
ing. If you have your land free from
grass and weed seeds, well lined and
inoculated SOW about thirty pounds of
seed per acre. Seed can be bought
very cheap from tho Rock Hill Alfal-
IA Association Every farmer owning
his own land needs one acre to each
plow
BY sowing rye, crimson clover, hairy
Yetch, oats or wheat on your land that
you have in cotton you will be doing
two things, you will be cnriching your
soil and fighting the boil wcevil FOR Il
wecvi can't live over tho winter in
green growing crop. He has to have
a dry place to hibernate so he can
cvaporate one third of his body mois
turc.
Prepare land early for wheat and
oats so it will settle and you can get
a good stand and root growth before
cold weather. Next month is the time
for sowing for grain but this month is
the time for the land preparation. Be-
gin now to look for good seed oats and
wheat.
If you are having milk to feed to
your hogs, prepare now to ship your
cream and give the pigs only the skim
milk. 1T will be big help to get the
cream check once week to help pay
bills. 1t will take nearly all the cot
ton to pay the back debts so look out
for the future and sell more livestock
and livestock products.
Pick your seed cotton from good in
dividual stalks and from stalks that
are not near the diseased stalks such
as anthracnosc. A great deal Of this
disease is in the cotton Of this county.
Now is the time to get rid of it if you
expect to keep your own seed.
Fruit trees should be ordered early.
If you will write to your county agent
and place your order Immediately it
will save you a great deal of money
and too you will get the proper kind
Of trees free from disease. Send in
your order early.

NEW STYLE IN THE
AUTO LICENSE TAGS

Big white figures and letters on Q
black background will be the stye OF
the 1923 automobile license tags for
the use Of Colorado motorists.
The 1928 tags are different in shape
from those Of 1922; they are pa
inches shorter and y an inch wider.
OF course, therefore, the hanging slots
do not match the attachments at pres
ent in use on the cars. This, Il il ex-
pected, will cause good many swears.
Seven hundred tags have been al
lowed for Gunnison county. the num-
bers commencing at 26,001, according
to the license blanks received by Coun-
ty Clerk McWilliams. The num-
Der Of licenses Issued in the county
this year has been $50, which leaves
10 to grow on for 1923.

last Saturday, tackling the Colorado

After the first few minutes Of play the
second team frou the Springs was put

the last few minutes of play the heavy
spud pickers played straight line bucks
for a touchdown.
We would have liked to see the Gun

not have been one-sided.

Afternoon

Harry Applegate's Raritan Cop

bats with the Dupont Powder Works
team of Parlin on the Raritan Cop

HUNTERS AND
ANGLERS MEET
Perth Amboy Rod and Gun
Club Starts Drive for Big
Membership

The Perth Amboy Rod G. Gun
Club got off to a flying start last
night at the meeting held in the city
hall council chamber, officers being
elected, committees named and plans
for the future talked over 1t was
decided to make a strenuous effort
to boost the present member of 125
up to the 500 mark, it being the gen.
eral belief of those present that
there are more than that number of
gunners and anglers in and about
Perth Amboy. Residence In Perth
Amboy is not necessary for member
ship in the club. the idea being to
get as members all those in this
ing and hunting conditions prevail
nearer home by having the streams
and woods restocked often.
The election of officers last night
resulted in Arthur A. Deter. of
Woodbridge, being named president;
Thomas d. Wilhelm, of this city,
vice president: Charles A. MacWil-
liam, of this city, secretary. and AL
derman Albert G. Waters, treasurer.
A committee was named to go n
the matter of drawing up a constitu-
ton and bylaws and report at the
next meeting of the club which will
be held in the city hall Thursday
night, June s., at 8 o'clock. This
committee consists Of Martin New
conner, T. d. Wilhelm and c.. A. Mac
william.
Alderman Waters opened last
nights meeting with an interesting
talk on the objects of the club after
which he stressed the fact that this
reorganization is not being made
in order that the old gun club might
be helped financially. The expenses
of the gun club. he said, were borne
by the members who r reimbursed
from the proceeds of the shoots.
Charles A. Macmillan, vice presi-
dent of the old club. in the absence
of Stephen A. Somogyi, the former
president, presided over the meeting
following Alderman Waters talk.
