|. RETURNED TO HALL

The $4,000 worth Of stock Of
whiskies, wines, cordials and beers
taken from Frank P. Halls place at
$50 and 63S K street southwest, last
year by the prohibition enforcement
officers, was returned to Mr.. Hall late
yesterday afternoon. The returned
stock was stored in 636 K street.
This action of the revenue officers
in surrendering the big stock of in
toxicants will end a legal battle
waged. over the stock for months
An order Of police court to return the
stock, directed to the revenue and
prohibition officials, was based on the
grounds that the search warrant un-
der which the goods were taken was
defective in that it was against Halls
premises at 1000 and 1901 7th street
southwest, while the conf1scated stock
was taken from 636 and 63S K street
southwest.
The return Of the stock will fore
stall the hearing of the rule to show
cause why Commissioner Blair of the
bureau of internal revenue and
Prohibition Commissioner Haynes
should not be adjudged in contempt
to honor the courts order for the
return of the goods Judge Robert
E. Mattingly, who heard the argu-
ment on the validity of the search
warrant, under which the stock was
seized and who declared that 1t was
defective. signed the rule to show
cause Friday, and 1t was promptly
served by q United states marshall
The rule directed that the defend

| Good thinning each year, along

annual yields are consistently
thinned each year.
Fruit trees Which are vigorous
and produce good average
growth are most apt to produce a
good annual crop. Trees which
are permitted to bear an over
load of fruit seldom make enough
wood growth and are not able te
accumulate enough of reserve Of

1 In order for trees to form buds
there must be- a good surplus OF
the plant foods called carbohy-
drates, in the tree early in the
season. The development of the
heavy crop and the extension Of
new shoots is a heavy drain or
the trees which generally results
in the formation Of few fruit buds

which do not blossom.
Thorough thinning early in the
season, reduces the demands or
