This is a sad story about a
honeymoon. They waited long
for it, but it ended soon.
Washington was their goal for
the honey moon which had been
delayed for more than 10 years
because of financial reasons.
So into the family "tin-can"
they packed their two children
back home in st. Paul, Mimi, and
travelled all the way to Washing

Here, they had no more money.

Last Chapter in
 Life of J. Rapsey
The Burial Took Place This Afternoon in
 New Haven

j. Howard Rapsey, the broker who Tuesday morning committed suicide at his home in Bethlehem just few hours before he was to appear in the New Haven superior court and receive a sentence of from 6. to 10 years in states prison, was buried this afternoon in the Elm City. The last chapter In the story of Rapsey was writetn with quiet funeral services at the Beech CT, Bennett and Lincoln funeral parlors in New Haven. Burial was in Beaverdale Memorial park ceme- tery in that city.
 Only immediate members. of the family and intimate friends attend ed the funeral services. The suicide of Rapsey caused consfdera ble comment here and in New Fla. ven when it was learned of on Tuesday.
 At 10 o'clock Tuesday morning he was to have gone before Judge F. B. O'Sullivan in the New Haven superior court to receive his sen- tence and then go to states prison. He was convicted of theft by Judge Alfred c. Baldwin on March 1st. He appealed to the supreme court but the conviction was upheld by the high tribunal, hence the formal sentencing scheduled in the su- perior court for Tuesday morning.
 It was charged that Rapsey took $89,9O0 in securities from Eliza beth J., and Massena Clark of New Haven which were subsequently lost in the 1929 stock market crash. In note written by Rapsey before he blew his brains out at his Beth- lehem summer home.he maintained his innocence and criticised the de- cisions of the superior and supreme courts.
 Many .Waterburians had business dealings with the deceased during the time that he was in the brok- craze business.

 They went driving last night and met two men, described as friends of Alex. who showed her what they said was $45.000 in bills. But they needed $6,000 more to complete a business deal.

JURY COMMISSIONERS
FINED

Chester county's jury COM
missioners, David K. Balentine,
Republican, Downingtown, and
Francis K. Moran, Democrat,
West Chester, were fined 5000
each and costs, when they
pleaded "nolle contendere" in
West Chester Court Thursday,
to charges growing out of jury
padding case. Prior to being
sentenced both commissioners
rendered their resignation to
the court, effective Immediate
ly. The vacancies were filed
by the appointment of Nathan
r. Rambo, Republican, and
Freeland Brown, Democrat.
The charges against Balen-
tine and Moran were that they
failed to keep proper watch
upon the jury wheel and also
that they permitted persons to
serve on grand juries when
their names had never been in
the jury wheel.-Quarryville

feeding Of a raw garbage caus-
ed Is outbreaks. One out
break was caused by contact
ing with a sick animal and it
was impossible to get informa-
ton on the remaining case.
Eight hundred and ninety
three animals were involved in
the 81 outbreaks and 1876, or %
per cent were sick and 1874 or
Is per cent were dead before
the outbreaks were reported.
DR.. Welsh points out that the
man with a few hogs always
seems slower in reporting cas-
es than the one who makes
pork raising a regular job and
yet he, as a rule, can less easily
afford the loss, since the years
meat supply often depends on
the few animals he is raising.
In any case a prompt report OF
sickness in the herd should be
made and will often be saver
of both money and worry.

CHRISTMAS CLUB DISTRI-
BUTTONS

Four hundred and forty mill
lion dollars will be distributed
to about ten and one half mil
lion members of the Christmas
Club by more than seven thous-
and banking institutions and
organizations within the next
two weeks, according to an es-
innate given out by Herbert F.
Rawll, President Of the incor-
|porated organization, Christ
mas Club.
The average amount receiv-
ed by each member amounts to
$4,000. While this figure rep
resents a reduction of about IL
per cent compared with a year
ago. the buying power Of $4,000
this year, in the terms of
Christmas spending, is greater
than the average amount re-
ceived by each member in 1881.
Considered from another angle,
if all the cash in circulation in
this country last year were
evenly divided among our total
population Of 120,000,000 peo-
pie, each person would have
about $40 in-the-pocket cash.
While every member of the
Christmas Club, on the aver
age, has accumulated in nick
les, dimes and dollars, during
this year, a sum of $4,000.
An optimistic expression is
found in many reports from all
sections that the distribution
Of more than four hundred mill
lion dollars in cash within the
next two weeks will add a ter
rife impetus to a revived urge
for constructive and useful
purchases on the part Of fami-
lies that have discarded a par
alyzing fear that the worst is
yet to come.

HOG CHOLERA DURING
OCTOBER
FOrty-Nine Cases Classed As
Backyard"


Hog Cholera was reported
on fifty-seyen premises in the,
State during the month of Oc-
tober. according to DR.. Mark
Welsh, Inspector in Charge of
Eradication Work. DIR. Welsh
points out, however, that forty
nine of these outbreaks were
backyard" affairs; that is.
they occurred on premises
where only a few animals are
kept, and only eight of the
cases were found on farms
where hogs are bred and raised
as a business. Moreover, only
one of the cases reported was
secondary or due to spread of
the disease.
Seventeen of the twenty
three counties in the State re-
ported outbreaks. These in
cluded: Anne Arundel, IL;
Montgomery, 10; Cecil and

Anne, Frederick, Kent and Tai
bot, 8 each; Calvert. Caroline
and st. Mary's,, 2 each: and

whole were not very heavy.

and scraps of pork, accounted

FEEDING WHEAT TO HOGS

When wheat is low in price
or damaged by insects, it may
be more profitable to market it
through feeding it to hogs than
by selling the grain; the way
to secure a large and efficient
utilization of ground wheat by
hogs is to supplement the grain
with a high protein feed, or
pasture, or both. This pro-.
vides a ration that gives good
growth and calls for a contin-
uously increasing amount of
feed, it is stated by B. E. Car
michael, animal husbandman
for the University of Maryland
Experiment Station, in a new
bulletin, Feeding Wheat To
Fattening Hogs
Experiments conducted at
the University, according to
the author, showed the use Of a
high-protein supplement re-
suited in a 81 per cent larger
consumption Of feed and the
use of both a high-protein sup
plement and abundant pasture
gave a. 81 per cent larger con-
sumption of feed aside from
the pasture, as compared with
the use of only ground wheat
and minerals in dry lot. The
use of abundant pasture along
with wheat and minerals re-
suited in a "a per cent larger
feed consumption aside from
pasture, as compared with the
use of wheat and minerals in
dry lot.
No substantial advantage
was found in feeding ground
wheat and shelled corn togeth-
er as compared with feeding
either of these feeds separate
ly. A mixture of equal parts
of shelled corn and ground
wheat was superior to shelled
corn but was less efficient than
ground wheat.
Whole wheat, according to
Mr.. Carmichael, was found to
be more palatable than either
ground wheat or shelled corn
and ground wheat was fully as
suitable over a moderately long
feeding period as shelled corn,
when each is supplemented by
minerals and fishmeal,
