NOT 50 MANY
APPLES This YEAR
New Jersey Fruit Though
Scarce Is Reported To Be
Finest in Years
SPORT WRITER'S GET
MANY COMMUNICATIONS

New Jersey is nearing the
height of the early apple season,
according to the State Department
OF Agriculture. A comparison of
the official estimate of the 1927
apple crop with that of last year
indicates that this season there
will be 275,0OO fewer barrels pro-
duced. The fruit though scarce is
reported to be the finest in years
Supplies of Yellow Transparents
are reaching New Jersey markets
in decreasing numbers. The peak
of the season has passed for this
variety, although the remainder of
the crop will be of the same excel
lent quality that distinguishes all
New Jersey tree-ripened fruit
Yellow Transparents are especially
recommended to housewives as
high quality sauce apples.
An apple of equal quality with
the Transparent is the big green
Starr. In addition to its mellow
flavor when made into sauce or
pie, it makes an ideal baking apple
because of its firm texture which
enables it to stand up under cook
ing. This variety is on the market
in quantity, and will be until some
time near the middle of August.
Williams Early Red is appearing
on the market now Medium to
large sized, this is valued by many
as an eating apple. Wholesalers
are reporting that Early Reds
grown in Jersey are of excellent
quality this year. Some growers
attribute their unusual tastiness to
the season which has been favor
able to the production of quality
fruit. All agree, however, that much
of the excellence of Jersey apples

backing up the recent remarks of
Atlantic City Common Pleas Judge
Smathers.
He indicated his views on this
point in denying a motion for tenn
porary support pending hearing for
suit for maintenance brought by
Mrs. Mildred N. Stead, of Hamilton
township, against Frank Stead, of
Hewitt, After putting a few ques-
tons to Paul H. Wendell, who ap-
peared for the wife, and learning
that she is IS years old and her

announced that no maintenance
would be allowed until the case
was fully heard
The Steads were married a little
more than year ago at Elkton,
Md. According to the wife, she was

few weeks ago because of incon-

K. Armitage were of such a char
acter as to cast suspicion upon
this body as now constituted.
Engaged as you have been in
investigating charges of alleged
political corruption, such charges
as made by a member of your
body, would, i'm the very nature of
things, cast suspicion upon the
grand jury as whole.
"The grand jury is an arm of this
court. Its duties are the most inn
pOrtant that citizen is called
upon to perform and in order to
function properly and have the
confidence of the community, it
must be like Caesars wife, above
suspicion The publicity given to
the hearing growing out of the
charges set out in the information
of the prosecuting attorney, during
the five days of the presentation of
evidence in support of said
charges, leads the court to the
conclusion that the usefulness of
the grand jury, as now composed,
has been destroyed.
Therefore, under and by virtue
of the authority vested in me, I'M
der the provision of Section 2120
Burns Revised Statutes, 1926, the
grand jury of Marion County, for
the January term, 1927, is now dis
charged.

AS soon as this matter was
brought to the attention of the
Court an order was entered, di-
recting. the prosecuting attorney
to file an information against said
james II. Armitage charging him
with contempt of the Criminal
Court of Marion County and the
Grand Jury of said county. Upon
the filing of this information, a
rule to show cause why said James
f.. ATmitage should be attached
and punished for contempt was
duly issued out of this Court, and
i'm response TO said rule to show
cause, the defendant Armitage pre-
scented himself and filed verified
answer denying all Of the allega-
tons made in the statement OF
said Claude Achey. The Court
held the answer insufficient to
purge him of the contempt
charged i'm said information and
this cause was set for hearing ON
the Goth day of April.
On the 4th day of May, the
Court, after hearing the evidence,
adjudged the answer and evidence
of said James e. Armitage to be
insufficient and found him guilty
of contempt OF the Criminal Court
of Marion County and the Grand
Jury thereof, as charged in the
information, and assessed fine of
$500, to which was added impris-
