Berlin. He suspended cultures of
certain species of fat-forming yeasts
In an atmosphere of dilute alcohol,
and found that the organisms accu-

DIR. Linder is of the opinion that
in the future 1t will be possible to get
great quantities of material OF high
energy content by cultivating such
yeasts in an atmosphere made al.
coholic by the fermentation Of waste

RADIATOR CAP At M|DDLETOWN
CLUE To KILLING JOHN GREEN
STATE HIGHWAY POLICE TRACE
MOTOR DEATH TO TOWNSEND
William Ridgway and Alic Jones and
Herman Ward, All COlored, Under
Arrest Charged With Crime

How Laden Green, a brother of
John Green who was fatally injured
by hit-and-run automobile driver on
the night of November 7, unconscious
ly aided one of the occupants of the
offending machine to escape the Wig
ilance of the police, was told Monday
night when the State Highway Police
grilled Herman Ward, 36 years old, of
Middletown, whom they arrested Mon
day evening at Leipsic. Ward is be-
ing held on a charge of manslaughter
and was arraignd before Magistrate
Black in Wilmington yesterday morn
ing. He confessed to being driver of
the death car and was held in $4,000
bail to await action of eeroners jury.
The arrest of Ward resulted from the
alleged confession of William Henry
Ridgway of Townsend owner of the
car who was arrested on Sunday at
Churchtown Nd, where the car was
traced through the medium of the cap
from the radiator which was torn
from the machine by the victim of the
accident as he sought to save him
self from injury as the car struck
him. In his alleged confession Ridg-
way admitted being the owner Of the
car and said that Alice Jones, negress,
and Ward were with him at the time
and that Ward was driving the ma
chine. Following the accident he went
to Churchtown where he got work on
a farm and he said he hadn't left the
place since the day he arrived there.
Ward was arrested Monday at Leipsic
and during the grilling by the State
Highway Police he declared that he
was not driving the car at the time.
He said Ridgway was driving and
also accused Ridgway Of being drunk.
He said that on Monday, the day af-
ter the accident he persuaded Laden
Green to drive him to Leipsic where
he had a job husking corn. Green,
who aided the police in locating Ward
told the police that he was ignorant
of the fact that Ward was an occu-
pant Of the car that killed his broth.
er. He also declared that he would
aid the police in every way in prose-
cutting the case. Ward was taken to
Leipsic the day after the accident and
he remained there until his arrest.
John Green, the victim, was struck at
the Frogtown crossing of the State
Highway on Sunday, November land

APPLE DEALERS HURT MARKET
Push Western Fruit While $4,000
Bushels of Local Fruit Lay in Stor-
age-Offering Oregon Variety

With hundreds of carloads of East
ern Shore grown apples being export
ed to foreign countries and thousands
of bushels in storage unable to find
ready market, fruit dealers in the
larger towns on the peninsula are ex-
hibiting, almost exclusively of all
others, apples grown in the states of
Washington and Orgon. On the fruit
Evening Times shows. One the fruit
stands, markets and in the stores of
Eastern Shore towns from Dover, to
Pocomoke, Md, the apples from the
northwestern states are given pref
erence over the same varieties grown
on the peninsula. Those dealers who
did exhibit apples grown locally.were
displaying fancy western apples,while
the Eastern Shore grade was so in
ferior that it could not pass govern
ment inspection, it was revealed.
Fruit growers of the peninsula when
asked about the condition asserted
that the dealers would not buy apples
grown locally; that the dealer purch-
ased western apples from brokerage
houses and retails them for five cents
each, while the very same varieties of
equal deliciousness and quality could
be sold to the consumer at two-for-
five-cent rate and the dealer would
realize a profit of more than 80 per
cent on the sales. More than $4,000
bushels of apes are in storage at ice
plants in Salisbury, the growers be-
ing unable to find market. Here the
retail dealers are offering Oregon and
Washington apples almost exclusively
to the consumers. At the end of the
past week 226 carloads, or 1920
bushels of apples from the Salisbury
section-have been exported to for
eign countries from this years yield.
At destination the Shore apples have
brought peak market prices. The
Shore growers contend that thousands
of bushels of apples grown on the
peninsula could be consumed in the
home market, if the dealers would CO.
operate in offering their product in
preference to fruit growers elsewhere.
The price to the consumer, they say,
would be reduced at least so per cent
and the dealer could make just as
large profit from the sale.

BIG CROWD AT LEGION SUPPER
Was Well Supported but Net Receipts
Not Observation-Disclosures Dedicated

Thursday last, Armistice Day, the
ringing of the church bell at II
o'clock told Of the moment Of silence
in honor of those who paid the su-
preme sacrifice in the world war. The
American flag was everywhere in evi-
dence. David G. Harrison Post, No.
IA, American Legion of Smyrna, on
Thursday night held supper at the
Century Club House which was large
ly attended. More than 5000 was TAX
en- in but just what will be the net
proceeds from this has not been de-
termined. Whatever it is will go to
the ambulance fund. The ambulance
body now on a Lincoln Chassis, with
powerful Lincoln Motor, is a fine
equipment throughout and makes
stronger and speedier outfit than ever
This improvement has practically Civ
en- the Legion a new ambulance. State
Commander Ennis and Post State
Commander Crothers were to have
been here but at last moment were
unable to come. The re-dedicatory
service then devolved upon Rev. DR..
R. K. Stephenson who happily came
to the "rescue" of the Legion boys
and filled in the gap on the program.
DIR. Stephenson spoke of the work of
the Legion and theg reat service of
this ambulance to the community and
urged the people to stand behind the
legionnaires in this good work. Com
mander of the Smyrna post, William
E. Matthews, Jr., made an address of
appreciation thanking those who have
responded to the call of financial sup
port in the past and asking for their
continued support in the future. Ow-
ing to the great expense of maintain
ing this ambulance, the Legion at
recent meeting decided that there
must be a charge made for trips in
the ambulance. Although there have
been many generous remunerations,
for service rendered, it has not always
been adequate by any means, and the
Legion drivers who give their time at
all hours Of the day or night free of
charge must have sufficient funds for
the maintenance and expense of the
car.

HARRINGTON MANS PECULIAR
DEATH REMAINS UNSOLVED
]. G. BAKER, FOUND UNCONSCI-
GUS AT HARRINGTON, DEAD
jury at Inquest, Decides Cause is I'm
known to Them and Investigation
Will be Continued by Detectives

After hearing a number of wit
nesses in the investigation of the
death of John g. Baker, 81 years old,
of Harrington, formerly of Dover,
found unconscious along the railroad
tracks Sunday morning, and who died
in the Marshall Hospital at Milford,
Monday morning, a coroner's jury
gave verdict that the man came to
his death in manner unknown to
the jury. 1t is understood that the
state detectives and other officers will
make further investigation. Baker
formerly lived in Dover where he was
an auctioneer. Later he removed to
Harrington where he engaged in the
business of buying butter, eggs and
poultry. He had a store room near
the railroad. When the man was
found there were bruises on his body
and he was rushed to the hospital.
What first caused suspicion was that
the man was found lying about $50
feet from the station and not far
from his warehouse. His hat and SO
cents in money were found lying side
ny SluS dDOuC luISS-qudIteIS O1 Il 1llAAC
further down the railroad. At the in
quest Monday Joshua Smith was the
foreman of the jury and Roy Porter
was the secretary. DR.. S. NJ. D.
Marshall, of Milford, and DR.. w. P.
Chapman, of Harrington, testified that
the bruises on the body of Baker may
have been formed by an assault or by
the man having a stroke and then
falling and bruising himself or by
train rolling him for distance. There
were no broken bones and no fracture
of the skull so that the jury decided
that an autopsy was not necessary.
The funeral will take place tomorrow
Thursday and interment will be made
in Hollywood cmetery near Harring-
ton. Bakers wife died some time
ago. The man was found by the
crew of a freight train which took
him to the station and his relatives
then sent him to the hospital. Sew
eral witnesses testified to seeing the
man as late as 8 o'clock Saturday
night near his warehouse.
