One of the "Cookers" i, ' Saturday is the opening day. Conic and "be convinced of the wonders in f these new inventions, saving fuel and c work DRUM FISH ARE HERE Of all the exciting, exhil.-rating, and t interesting sports known at Cape May J "is the fascinating one of drum fishing. ( The ordinary drumfish weighs anywhere from- "thirty -to seventy pounds, and. : even to the- ffiftiSt.d, getting one of these mongers of. the deep on a thin hand line is ''sufficient cause to make f chills run .down a fellow's back and his hair raise until his hat is in danger of becoming lost ill the struggle. The most common -way to catch the red drum — the ones that are here now which are really channel bass— is to wade out into the surf and, throwing ones' line out into about ten feet of water, wait expectantly for his fishship to come along and bite. No one needs to tell the fisherman when a drum bites The fish just takes one good look at the bait and, if it looks good to him, grabs it his laws and proceeds to leave — suddenly. Many are the tales told of tremendous batll-s for hours playing these wonderfully game fish. Some of these tales, in fact making the battle of Verdun in Europe, seem, by comparison, mere child's play; but then," of course these are "fish" stories.

The "stonepiles" at Cold Spring Inlet _Te favorite' places {rout whieh to catch drum, and" every day they are lined with men,, bovs and women all of whom Arc praying "for a bite, earnestly. Then if , by chance tjiey do get a bite, hook the monster and get him about half way . landed and he manages to get hwty, right then and there that person, be H man, woman or child, loses their rpkgian and starts on the downward path to destruction. In fact* last Saturday afternoon a young man of respectable habits was fishing off the stones and , got a large one right close into the rocks when his line parted under the . strain and the fish efcwm hastily away, i Immediately his* religion parted under the strain and the air was blue for i forty feet each side of him. We will . not m At ion this unfortunate fisheri man's name, but will say he "is a clerk . in the Cape May Post Office. Another t of the force of that same office, almost • got one the other day. - ; Scores ^flf, these fine eating fish have 1 been caught this week, among the foii tunate ones being Grant Vanaman. f U-roy Wilson, who got three one . after- 1 l noon; Walter Entriken, George. Lehman ; s Sol Needles and Joseph Went. : \ I On Tuesday e.^^^MWs Irene Matthews entertained ah" e'vinHig -company in hopor of Mr. Orion Beeves, who is " io leave this ^SCk for another year . of college life. They first' enjoyed a trip to the Palace Theatre and then back to , the house to spend the remainder of the evening. -Refreshments were served at a late .hour after which the guests de- ' parted for their respective homes, . all having had a very pleasant time Those _ present were the Misses Jennie Donvlly, Ella Archibald. Irene Matthews, Mr.-. Matthews, Mrs. Hughes, Edgar Richardson, Leone Eldredge and Orion Re.-ves.

BYE AS A COVER CBOF It Is a well ' known tact that many condemn the use of rye as a cover crop yet It Is really valuable In many respects if plowed down early In Hie spring before it gels dry. Rye is not a nitrogen gatherer and should not be compared with crimson clover, vetch or other legumes, however j -

it has one advantages over legumes In ' that it may be seeded very late In the jle fall and still produce a sufficient amo.unt j,i' of organic matter for early spring plow- I ing. ■ 1m - Some men have said that rye takes 1 01 , more out of the sou than it returns lr f when plowed down, yet contrary to such ■ statements it returns everything taken p from the soil during its growth and in ei - addition furnishes considerable organ- lc l ic matter. b f A cover of rye will during its growth. c collect from the soil and make use of; quantities of plant food that would e leach away during the winter and early r r spring. This would be a ?a«U»g of 0 available plant food. ' J-C Any winter tovhi crop, no matter » what variety, has beneficial effects f upon the sou. thereby collecting surp bkis plant food, preventing washing ,or » ls blowing of Uie . soil, de<gl_free7lflg. and s thawing and many otheVtgood JfiYeou. I No farmer can afford to let a square 1 it rod of his cultivated land go thru the « ll, winter without some sort of a cover « w and don't be led to believe that rye ls " worse than.no cover at all. _ t- i Rye or any other cover orop mefc.>lv«: i ig poor results if allowed tgie/mPlatm („* ; Bf the spring and become def and woody '■ )e before It is tqrned under. When a large amount of green or dry material is plowed down, the upward . ot j flow o* water is naturally cut off until decomposition has taken plgfce aufflc- — j - I ;

lentiv to permit of a continuance of Jht? tlow of water from- below. $ Any plant during It.- growth r, celves more moisture from this upward flow of water than from surface water comTo obtain good results rye should be plowed down when about a foot to inches high, otherwise If allowed to get dry. Injurious results are bound to follow.— George B Thrasher. Supt. of Farm Demonstration.
