Sank Rapids Quaryman
Convicted of Manslaughter
Must Serve From One to IS Years
for Running Down and Killing
15-Year-Old Boy

Ray C. Smith, Sank Rapids quarry
man, 80 years old, Wednesday was
sentenced to a term of one to Is
years in the Saltwater state prison
by Judge Parsons following his con-
viction by Benton county jury on
Ia charge of manslaughter in the Sec
ond degree. Smith was the driver of
the car which two weeks ago ran
down and instantly killed Leon
Loucks, ST. Cloud boy scout, who was
riding on bicycle on the pavement a
mile north of Sartell.
Smith went on trial Tuesday after
being indicted on a second degree
manslaughter charge by the grand
jury in session at Foley. The two
other occupants in the car, John
Fiergolla and Leo Yilek were the
chief witnesses in the case, Fiergolla
completely reversing his story of the
accident as he told it in the Sank
Rapids justice court. At that time
he stated that Smith was badly intox-
icated whereas at the Foley trial, he
stated that Smith was not drunk at
all.
A number of other witnesses, were
called in the trial, which was attended
by capacity crowds every day in the
Benton county district court room :.
The jury, which consisted of three
women and nine men, retired at 5 i
P. NJ. Wednesday, and came back
with the verdict at p. m. The SEN
tence was passed by Judge Parsons
at 10 o'clock last Thursday morning.
Smith, testifying in his own behalf,
thated that he was not drunk, that
he was never going at speed of over
25 miles an hour, and that Leon
Loucks, riding the bicycle, swerved
across the road directly in his path
making the fatal crash unavoidable.

In preparing the program for any
great entertainment, careful atten-
tion is always given to the first num-
ber, for it is expected to strike the
"keynote" of the whole affair. And
so the Swarthmore Chautauqua Asso-
citation had chosen for the opening
days program, Wednesday, Septem-
ber 8, Maupin's Singing and Novelty
Band. This band can boast of more
artists than any band travelling to-
day, for each and every man will ap-
pear some time during this program
as soloist. There will be saxaphone
duos and trios, trombone duos, cornet
solos and duos, piano solos and zylo-
phone solos. Can you imagine so
many special features in an evenings
program? The entire first part of
this program will be given by the
novelty band, dressed in their natty
tuxedos. Second part by this band in
their new specially designed band
uniform.

GLOOMY OUTLOOK FOR
SEASONS TOMATO CROP
Many Factors Have Conspired To
Curtail Yield.-First Picking In
This Section This Week

The following as written concern
ing the Wicomico tomato crop will
make very correct reading, descrip-
tive of the situation in Worcester:
"WKatever the heavy June rains
did or did not do to other crops, to-
mato growers in Wicomico county are
hard hit as the result, according to
local Gamers of the product. Only a.
bout 60 per cent. of the normal acre
age has been set in plants and the
yield from these is not expected to
exceed 65 per cent.
All OF the twenty-five canneries in
the county are preparing to open this
season, Notwithstanding the indica-
tion of a curtailed crop. Fourteen
will operate on the west side, four in
Salisbury, one in Delmar and three on
the east side Of the county.
"The rains occurring during the
month of June held up the necessary
preparation of the soil throughout
the county and many tomato fields
were not set until early in July, or
about two weeks later than usual.
This, the Gamers say, will delay the
ripening about the same period.
"Then there is the resultant fear
that early frost will injure the vines
and further curtail the yield, so that
the outlook for the tomato crop this
year is somewhat gloomy.
Most the acreage has been set out
in the plants under contracts with the
county canneries at the rate of 25cts
per fve-eighth basket. This price,
however, does not include the con-
tainer.
Reports from several other tomato
growing sections of the country indi-
cate that the same condition prevails.
These factors having conspired to cur
tail the yield, prices on canned toma-
toes this winter are expected to soar
aloof."
Prices on potatoes continue in the
neighborhood Of two dollars, dropping
as low as one dollar and half. Ad-
vices strongly urge holding up of
shipments, but considerable movement
is still in progress and the quotations
are expected to drop still further.
