MEN PAY HEAVY
FINES At KEANSDURG

William Rusca, Harry Green.
Paul st. Maria and Harry Miller of
this city spent Tuesday night in the
.K~eansburg police station for attempt
ing to beat up officer Edward Young
of that place. Miller was fined $40
while the other members of the
quartet were fined $25.
According to information receiv-
ed from K~eansburg, the four local
men were standing on the board
walk at the summer resort making
considerable noise and arguing
among themselves. when Young,
who was in civilian clothes, came
UP to them and upon Identifying
himself as an officer, tried to quell
the disturbance. The local men re-
fused to quiet down, it is alleged, and
told Young they would beat him up
If he didn't "beat it."
They then surrounded the police
mar with the supposed intention of
beating him up when they found the
task too great for them to handle.
Young, who is about six and a half
feet tall, shot out his fists to all
aiSles and in a short time had the
four in a taxi and was oriv,rg hem
OIL to the police station. All of the
quartet were ln1esed no quite a bit
while the officer 5 kunckles were cut
in several places. The four wnre
arraigned before Recorder Louis
Buttner yesterday morning.

At The Crescent

1.-THE Sea Raiders" which opened
at the Crescent theatre yesterday, is
a stirring picture play with the cod
fishing industry off the Canadian
coast as a background. There are
many exciting situations, and the
element of suspense is vel sustain
ed. There are two fist fights in the

young heman hero. Charles Eidridge,
the we'll known character actor, does
excellent work as Captain Burke,
America Chedister is convincingly
pathetic as Elsie, demented by the
death of her sweetheart at sea. and
Edward Lawrence is quite sdtisfa;-
tory in the character Of CAPTAIN
Bruce Stoneman, the highly disiika-
bic villain.
The direction. by E. H. Griffin, is
excellent. and the photography re-
markedly good. THE Sea Raiders
is a Second National Pictures Cor

play. 1t shows the power of music
not only in swell" society but in the
underworld where desperate crooks
plan desperate work. The story is a
battle of a violin. in the hands of a

ping in d~elineation Of men and wo-
men who are gradually drawn from

is largely sand, redtop, red fescue, and,
If obtainable, creeping bent or Rhode
Island bent should be used in equal
parts by weight. For Kentucky blue
grnss the soil needs to be alkaline.
This can be assured by applying lime
or unleached wood ashes at the rate
of one to three tons per acre. If there
Is half stand of grass one would use
seed at the rate of 80 pounds per acre
or one pound for every 1000 square
feet of surface. With less grass, one
would use more seed.
1t Is well to seed in March and the
last Of August or first OF September
To stimulate as vigorous a growth Of
grass as possible a liberal application
OF either ground bone or one Of the
prepared stock yard manures, like pre-
pared sheep manure or prepared cow
manure, should be broadcast on the
surface. From one to one and one-half
tons Of bone per acre is required, and
Of the prepared manures an even
larger quantity. After the grass has
well started, nitrate of soda could be
used to advantage at the rate of so
pounds per acre. This could be re-
peated month later, although as a
rule It Is not advisables to use this
material after the beginning Of Sep
tember. 1t should be applied when the
ground is wet either from rain or from
watering.
Bone or stock yard manure should be
applied late each fall and nitrate Of
soda could be used as stimulant from
June to September at intervals of a
month. Reseeding Is desirable each
March and August until a really good
lawn Is secured, when the August seed
Ing may be omitted.
Clipping the lawn should begin as
soon as the lawn mower will cut the
tops when set high. 1t should be re-
peated at intervals Of five days or a
week. The clippings should be per-
mitted to remain about the roots Of
the grass.
Watering should not be oftener than
once In five days but should wet the
sell to a depth Of four inches when
applied. Usually watering is too light
and TOO frequent

Old-fashioned zinnlas, petunias,

In the rprlng, dormant roses which
were set In the fall should be cut

with four or five eyes on each. This
will leave them inches or less in

pruned at the time of planting, lav-
Ing four or five. on a stem. -
After the first year, the pruning
should be done as soon as freezing

Cd Of propagating, by cuttings, Is
practiced by florists. BY this method
the tubers are planted during Janu-
ary in the greenhouse and as the
young shoots form about three leaves
they are cut off, the leaves trimmed
slightly, and the cutting rooted In a
warm bed Of sand. After the roots
are formed the cuttings are potted In
rich soil and grown to good sized
plants in five or six-inch pots. The
tuber method of propagation Is the
only practical one for the average

Farmers should grow more of the
food they consume and buy less or
food produced outside their immedi-
ate locality is the consensus of opinion
of 25.0O0 farmers in all parts of the
country recently questioned on the
subject by the United States Depart.
ment of Agriculture. The survey
showed that of the food consumed by
farmers and their families 20 per cent
cent is brought in by railroad. In
the judgment of the farmers 10 per
cent of the food they consume could
be economically produced locally.
In a general way the survey indi-
Gated that the more isolated farmers
produce more of their foodstuifs than
the less isolated, and that the more
prosperous sections seem to buy more
thaR the less prosperous. The thought
back of the survey was that inasmuch
as high freight rates have had a
tendency to reduce rhe prices of prod
ucts which farmers sell, and to in
crease the prices of the things they buy.
they might economically produce
more of their home requirements and
thus become less dependent upon the
railroads and the outside world.
BY sections of the country the East
South Central states, including Ken
lucky, Tennessee, Alabama and Allssis-
slppi, led in the volume of production
for home consumption with 75.2 per
cent. The smallest volume of home
production is in the New England
States, including Maine, New Hamp-
shire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode
Island and Connecticut with 5S1 per

Women's complaints often prove to be

result Of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in healthy con-

toms of kidney trouble.

SHOULD PLANT PEAS EARLY
Seed May Be Put Into Ground as Soon
as Freezing Weather
Is over.

Peas can be planted almost as soon
as the frost Is out of the ground, the
United States Department of Agricul-
rure says. One pint of seed will
plant 100 feet of row. One hundred
feet of row will yield four to six pick
ings Of sufficient quantity to supply a
family of five over period of about
eight or ten days. The important
point In providing continuous sup
ply of peas Is to make at least three
and preferably four, paintings. The
first planting SHOULD be one of the ex-
tremely early sorts; the second plant
ing, which should follow just few
days later, should be one of the In
termedlate sorts like Gradus, and the
third planting may be Telephone or
a tall growing sort, about two weeks
after the first planting.

MUTTON SUPPLY FOR MARKET
Thousands Of Pounds Over Fig
ures Given for 1922.

Sheep feeding is booming and will
result in the production of many
thousands more pounds of mutton
chops this year. Almost third more
sheep were in feed lots on January
than were there at the same date in
1922, according to government esti-
mates. The largest increase In opera
tions was in the irrigated region Of
the West, though the corn belt shows
gain of IA per cent over 1922 feed
ing. Relief in financial conditions
among formers is considered largely
responsible for this increase, which
will put the country back on a 1921
basis in mutton production.
