Poultry Raisers Are Annoyed BY
Chicken Thieves.-PersOnals
Townsend, August 26.-Chicken
thieves have been operating among
the farmers during the past week and
the word is being passed around to be
on the lookout for them. The thieves
seem to be partial to young broilers
as those reported stolen are mostly of
this variety.
Farmers report that there will be
only a one-half crop Of tomatoes ow-
ing to the lateness of season due to
their inability to prepare the ground
in time because of the excessive rain
fall at that time. Some growers even
now, report very few tomatoes on the
vines, but the average will be at least,
one-half a crop, it is said.
A farmers truck from Sassafras,
Md, and a touring car collided near
Townsend on Tuesday morning. Both
cars were badly damaged, but neither
driver was injured.
Apple orchards in this section are
in fine condition and within the next
two weeks the farmers will begir
picking one of the largest apple crops
within recent years.
Many wild ducks and geese are seer
