BEATEN BY MEN HE WARNED
Wilson S. Vinyard Attacked After
He Had Ordered Men to Stop
Smoking in His Shipyard

Wilson S. Vinyard, junior member
of the Vinyard Shipbuilding Company
was badly beaten up by two men who
attacked him at the shipyards recent
". Young Mr.. Vinyard was at the
plant while the steamer George F.
Pierce" was burning at its anchorage
directly across from the Vinyard Ship
yards. In walking about the yards
he saw two men sitting inside one of
the sheds in which boats are under
construction. One of them was smok-
ing. Mr.. Vinyard walked up to the
man, took the cigarette from his
mouth and pinched the fire out. He
then handed the cigarette back to the
man, telling him not to smoke in the
yard. He had started away from the
men when he heard a match strike
and turning saw that the man was
lighting the cigarette. He started to-
ward him but was struck and knocked
to the ground. He evidently lost con-
| sciousness for when he revived his as
sailants had disappeared. His face
was badly bruised. He is unable t
tell who the men were for they were
strangers to him. One of them was
a negro and the other a white man
but he is unable to say whether botF
or only one Of them attacked him
When it became known that the at
tack had been made on Mr.. Vinyar,
an effort was made to ascertain wht
had attacked him, but no clew coul'
be found of the guilty parties. Feel

FINEST FERTILIZER FOR WHEAT
G. L. Shuster, University AgrOnOmist,
Answers FavOrite Fall Query

That question is often asked and
answered at this season of the year.
The answer will not be the same in
every instance because of the differ
ences in soil management, crop ro-
tations, etc. Invest cations conducted
by George L. Shuster, agronomist at
the University Of Delaware Expert
ment Station and published in BulLe-
tin 13S shows that potash is very
essential for economic wheat produc-
ton. The average net returns from
wheat unfertilized is S10.68 an acre.
Where potash has been added the net
returns are S20.08 an acre. The use
Of acid phosphate with the potash
give a net return of $32.10 per acre.
The prices used in making these cal
culations represent the average cost
of fertilizers and the average selling
price of wheat for the last 10 years.
Where barnyard manure has been
used the net returns are S22 an acre.
Nitrates do not seem to produce any
profit when used alone. When used
with acid phosphate and potash the
net returns are S36.61 an acre. Potash
seems to be the controlling factor in
wheat production. 1t also influences
the quality of wheat. The weight
Der bushel of wheat grown without
! fertilizer is SIG pounds. Grown witt
potash it is 56.7. Grown with potash
and acid phosphate it is So pounds.
Where the nitrogen can be supplied
| bv legumes or manure it would seen
| then that an O-1O-4 or O-12-6 fertiliz
er would be a very economical fer
tilizer for wheat. If it is necessary t
supply the nitrogen in the fertilize
2-12-4 or a 3-10-6 may be used t
advantage.

.ELETON PASTOR LONG IN
CHURCH FIGHT TO Be TEACHER
REV. JOHN MCELMOYLE, PASTOR
OF ELKTON CHURCH RESIGNS
Marrying ParsOn" Wins Fight 10 Out
Him Now He Will Give Up of His
Own AccOrd.-Bitter Fight

At the services in the Elkton Pres
byterian Church on Sunday announce
ment was made by the pastor, Rev.
John McElmoyle that at a meeting of
the official board of the church this
week he rendered his resignation as
pastor to become effective at once.
DR.. McElmoyle, it is understood, has
accepted a position as professor in a
school in or near Philadelphia.
For many years the stormy petrol
of the New Castle Presbytery because
of factions among the members of
his congregation, Dr. McElmOyle be-
came a national figure when the Elk
ton church fight was carried to the
General Assembly of the Presbyterian
Church. This body, however, refused
to act in the premises and referred
the subject back to the local Presby-
terry. He has been the pastor of the
church at Elkton for about % years
About eight or ten years ago there
developed among his parishiOners a
desire for a younger pastor. When il
came to a vote on his removal the
result showed Is in favor of his dis
missal and 90 in favor of retaining
him. Then developed the fight that
has attracted much attention through
out this section of the country. Tht
dispute was carried to the New Cas-
tie Presbytery but DIR. McElmOyl'
won his point in every contest. Even
tually he withdrew from the New
Castle Presbytery and allied himsel
with the Baltimore PreSbytery. Sine
that time the majority of his tiOcl
has been more or less independent o
the New Castle Presbytery despite tn
fact that it was supposed to be
member of this church organization
The New Castle Presbytery tried i
several ways to remove DR.. McEl
movie but always failed. The disput
was finally carried to the General As
sembly but without success.
Dr. McElmoyle's resignation put
J an end to the long fight which ha
. attracted so much attention an
brought so much notOriety to tn
= Presbyterian church there. 1t is ur
derstood in submitting his resignatiO
: he informed the members of the OF
fetal board that there is no longer tn
interest among the people in churc
affairs that there was formerly. Il
is said to have stated that the peopl
: are not going to church, that thel
are too many amusements on Sunda
> and too many automobiles to attra'
e the time and attention of the peOp
;. so that they are no longer intereste
E as they should be in church and r.
ligious development and training.
: DR.. McElmoyle is said to have e,
pressed desire that his resignatlC
become effective at once but that Il
board asked him to remain until Il
end of this month.
