RAMBLERS LOOK. IMPRE SSIVE IN OPENING SETTO
Naugy Pigskinners Have No Trouble TrOunc.
 ing OakviIle

Naugatuck, Sept. 21.-In the first game of the season at Recreation Field the Naugatuck RamblerS scored a decisive victory over the Oakville Ramblers by a one-sided score of 26 to 6, Sunday.
 Playing superior brand of foot ball which showed the results of the fine coaching and practce they have been getting, the Naugatuck boys gave a fine exhibition of how the game should be played. Every man on the squad got chance to acquit himself and did so in manner which left no doubt in the minds of the spectators that this team is go- ing to be hard to beat this year and will give the customers their mon- ey's worth of thrills.
 Splendid backfield play by Cros- by, Bojka, Creddo and PasSick and some beautiful tackling by Fitzpat- rick, Kudzma and others for Nauga- tuck together with the brilliant play and kicking of Pete Rice of Oakville were the features of the game.
 Shortly after the start of the sec- ond quarter after Oakville had kicked behind Naugatuck's goal posts, Johnny Crosby took the ball on the first play and ran behind beautiful interference the entire length of the field to score the first touchdown. Hiss pass for the extra point failed.
 Then after an exchange of punts and a run by Joe Bojka to Oak ville's thirty-five yard line and gain of four more through right tackle by Valois, the half ended with the score 6 to 0.
 Naugatuck kicked to open the sec ond half to Oakville's thirty yard line and after failing to gain in three plays Oakville kicked to Nau- gatuck's twenty five where tumble occurred on the first play and it was Oakvilles ball on Naugatuck's twen- ty yard marker. Oakville then made a first down through right end which was followed by loss of four yards on 8 try through left tackle, but on the next play Pete Rice gained four yards and then took the ball around right end for the one and only score for Oakville. His placement try for the extra point was blocked.
 Cohen received the kickoff for Naugatuck and was downed on the fifteen yard stripe. He then gained fourteen yards on a tricky reverse play around right end. At this point a pass was knocked down and Nau- gatuck was penalized five yards for offside but another pass to Morgan was good for twenty yards and gave them first down. Oakville held for three more plays and Naugatuck was obliged to kick to Oakyille's fifteen where the defensive back was downed in his tracks as he made the catch. The third quarter ended after Oakville failed to gain in two trys and then kicked out of bounds on Naugatuck's forty-three yard mark.
 The last quarter was rout which saw three successive touchdownS made for Naugatuck by Bojka, Creddo and Passick. Oakville tried hard to stem the tide and Mike Dundee who was playing fine game at tackle for Oakville was hurt and removed from the game as was Walter Yerkes, the Oakville full back.
 The officials of the game were James Sweetman and John Bolin- sky, referees, and Johnny RaytkWlch, head linesman.

moth has not passed, and growers
have been warned to maintain
thorough coverage as a protection
against these disturbing factors in
the growing of clean apples. In re
gard to codling moth, DR.. L. A.
Stearns, entomologist at the Della
ware experiment station, reports
100 percent pupation by May 26,
with the emergence of adult moths
about three-fourths completed. The
peak of emergence to date occur
red on the nights of May % and
"a, the first brood eggs were de-
posted on May 16, and they hatch
ed on May 26, but no fruit injury
has been observed up to the pres
ent time. With reference to peach
es, the emergence of the Oriental
fruit moth is now almost complet-
ed, and the first twig injury by the
first brood larvoe was noticed on
May 25, according to DR.. Stearns.
In order to safeguard against the
late season attacks of second brood
curculio, therefore, it is recon-
mended that the drops" should
be picked up at from five to seven
day intervals for at least three
times during the season. The Sec
ond cover spray for peaches may
be anticipated for the week of
June IA, but no further use of ar
senate of lead will be recommend
ed for this season. The wettable
sulphur sprays will control scab
and brown rot, which remain the
chief diseases facing peach grow
ers, and which will be discussed in
future editions of spray notes.

ry crop is better than that in other
states in the same group is indi-
Gated by the fact that in only one
other state in the intermediate
group, California, shows an indi-
Gated increase in production to
more than 100 per cent of aver
age, while percentage figures for
the other states in the group run
from II per cent to 81 per cent of
average. According to the Bureau
report, an increased crop in as
parabgus is predicted for 1887 in
Delaware with an indicated pro-
duction of 10000 24-pound crates
as compared to 121, 900 such crates
last year. A part of this increase
is attributed to a 100-acre increase
in asparagus paintings in the state
this year. Indications in general
point to an increase in truck crop
acreage on the Delmarva penin-
sula. Acreages of cantaloups, wat
ermelons, cucumbers, and string
beans will be increased tne report
states, while it says that there will
be a slight increase in spinach and
cabbage acreage. Indications at
the time the report was written
we're for about the same acreage
of early Irish potatoes as year
ago with increases by smaller
growers being offset by decreases
on the part of the larger produc-
erS.

Bank of Smyrna's Birthday

NAtAA VI AAAt AaeA . LII llAud.y
We congratulate The Ma
tional Bank of Smyrna upon
reaching tomorrow it's 125th
year as a continuous and ac-
tive financial institution. The
directors and officers have a
reason to be proud of the
banks fine record. Started as
the Commercial Bank of
Smyrna under the late John
Cummins, progenitor of the
Cummins family in Smyrna, it
became in time The Bank of
Smyrna and when Congress
passed the bank act, it was
one of the first to take out a
charter and became The Ma
tional Bank of Smyrna under
which name it has carried on
business ever since. AS the
oldest institution in Smyrna
continuously operated and as
the second oldest bank in the
state and one of the oldest in
the nation, the old Bank of
S yrna has stood firm
through depression after de-
preston, serving its patrons
throughout all these long
years. With such a confidence
of good will and esteem it is
no wonder that the president
and officers from President
Harvey G. Jones, its able ex-
ecutive officer on down, feel it
but fitting they should take
note of it's interesting history
and record of achievements.
On our first page will be found
an historical sketch of this
old Smyrna institution May
the "Old Bank" as it is fa-
miliarly known, carry on and
continue to grow in strength |
and confidence it has so justly
earned.
