The progressive citizens of Cape May City and West Cape May $tave Started a most commendable movement in proposing the consolidation of these municipalities. To the uninformed this may not mean much but the benefits that will be derived from such1 a combination is so apparent that it should have the undivided support of every one who has the future of these communities at heart. Cape May has the best sewage disposal plant and at a very small expense, West Cape May could be connected to this system, thereby equipping the borough with all modern improvements as they now have electrie- " Sty, gas and water and paved streets j and side walks. The benefit >to Cape j May would be in increased population j and territory. "In Union... there is j Strength." PENNSYLVANIA R. R. V WANTS BUSINESS OFFICIALS OF RAILROAD HERE TO . CONFER ' WITH COMMISSIONERS AND BUSINESS MEN —MAYOR MELVIN PRESIDED. On Tuesday afternoon a delegation of officers of the Pennsylvania Railroad, including J. H. Warwick, representing the General Superintendent's Office of New York; A. G. Mitchell, Superintendent; C. B. Mitchell, Division .Freight Agent; A. E. Buchanan, Division Passenger Agent; D. A. Clapp, Train Master; F. Thompson, Special Agent; S. H. Moore, Cape May City agent. These officers requested a conference with our com- _ missioners and business men for the purpose of discussing better transportation for this resort. Mayor MelTin, acting as chairman of the meeting, called on L. C. Ogden, chairman of the County Chamber of Commerce, ,to state his view regarding the benefits ,of opening the Grant . Street Summer Station. Mr. Ogden was very decided ip his opinion that the station should be open. President Stevens of Cape May Board of Trade gave bis ideas on the importance, of , opening Grant Street Station, and ■ was of-the opinion that the railroad ' ond resort would be equally benfefitted i by the move. Mayor . Melvin gave , several important reasons why the ■ Summer depot should be open, setting . forth in his talk "the wonderful' feeling one receives on alighting from . the train after a. hot day in PhiladelJL. , Commissioner Wentzcll. Freeholder . Eld red ge and City Clerk Porter eafh ( spoke of the benefits which would be , derived from landing passengers on j the beach over the winter, station. ( While the railroad. officers did not . pommit their company to any action it j is believed that the Grant Street Sa- ( ion will be open wih improved setvice. •— . . The freight sen-ice will also feel j the effects of the improved conditions and will run and open an early schedule. The subject of our Union Station was discussed1 to some extent and while not anticipated at oftce the del- 1 egation has reason to believe' that we ' can expect a modern terminal in the ' near future. It is also believed that our new State .Highway ferry system 1 connecting with the great southern 1 cities will lie a wonderful benefit to ! our local railroads. — — — 1 > Sometimes it's a good jhing when l troubles come togetfler — we can get i s(d of e'm so much sooner. i If you want to sell it, see Tciienbaum Bros. DEEPER HARBOR HALTED AT SHORE ' Atlantic Gity, March 11. — Deeperinlet committeemen of the Chamber of Commerce, urging congressional appropriation for. a twenty-foot channel for Atlantic City's harbor, found little encouragement today in a preliminary report by the river and harbor engineers upon a recommendation by Major Johnston, district engineer officer, for a survey "to ascertain thefa.

t cost of the enlarged project. The report says: "From the information noviKin hand the board is not convinced of the advisability of the United States undertaking any additional improvement at this locaHtv^at tKe present aime f the following-reasons: Atlantic City | is essentially a pleasure resort whose |R I business interests are largely limited by the daily needs of its patrons^ As t. these needs are" largely confined to ,r_ food and drink, the tonnage is necessarily small. "There are no manufacturing or commercial industries of importance — to create an extensive commerce, and , n it seems doubtful whether the port y would be used Jo any great extent as j _ a point of transfer for general com- j n- merce between rail and water even , "if the improvement were made. I — While there would be some local bus!- ' ness in fish, fruit and vegetables, the j >e amount would seem to be small com'e pared with the cost of the improves- ment and its subsequent maintenance, m The latter part of the board's i- statement will be vigorously, resisted it by the committees of civic bodies. It m will be maintamed'that it Is a phy siit cal impossibility for Atlantic City tori make any considerable showing in thei- way of water commerce\because "the shallowness of the harboV entrance i- precludes the use of steamships large e- enough to be profitable. , Congressional legislation called for , the creation of a twelve-foot channel i- but the sea ehtrance has shoaled above that depth owing to tidal ac- 1 s ; tibn and the ajisenci of a dredge. 1 e Mariners maintain that a practicable 1 n channel can be maintained only thru1 1 8 'the building of jetties as was done for 1 j Cold Harbor at Cape May. — ' Ledger. * . ' -J » — t HATCHING BABY CHICKS1UGHT 1 s IS \ JOB FOR THE CAREFUL MAX j ~ No incubator can be expected to ' .take the place of a mother hen with- ? jout some intelligent help from o%- - p) [side. Nor should any poultry-man ex- . pect to raise vigorous birds from in- . ferior eggs, for even now one does ■ 3 not gather figs of thistles. Success t in chick raising depends on the ability . of tlje poutryman to take pains with , the small details. Only those eggs should be consid- , eyed for batching that come from the . strongest rind most vigorous- s{£ck . possible. If they are not normal in ..shape and 'size, the chicks will be > small and abnormally shaped. If . possible, eggs should not be kept . longer than two weeks before they are . incubated, -and should be stored in a i temperature not highef than sixty de- , grees, and turned at least once a 'day after they are a weekold. . As disease may be communicated' i from one hatch to the next by lack of proper sanitation, the incubator should be carefuily- cleaned and disinfected previous to the placing *of every hatch. Heat must be kept unifojjn and absolute certainty established that this important detail is never overlooked. The directions with regard to temperature and moisture that accompany each machine £ also should be carefully followed. Another important detail to be "observed is that of turning the eggs. ) After the-third day the eggs should be turned each morning and night = and th/s~iyactice continued until thp end of the eighteenth day. .Cooling the eggs seems to produce "slightly chicks, but does not influence thepejicentage of hatch. If 'the eggs J are not cooled the chicks will come [ off a day sooner than the : regular I time. . Darkening the incubator by having . a cloth over the front will keep the - chicks from crowding toward the light when the hatch begins. Under no '* circumstances should the chicks be taken frbm the incubator under 24 hours after hatching, as they need sleep and rest and become thoroughly" dried and fluffed .out before removed. At the end of 24 hours all chicks worth trying to broqd will b^.sti^!& and vigorous and able to Stand squarely on both feet. All others not coming up to this standard should be immediately. With these importanf^etails carefully followed the chicks should have a vigor, and stamina that will make toward ease and success in brooding.

SPRAYING PEACH TREES 1 Peach trees that have not been . sprayed this year should be done now . for "Leaf Curl." t A brief description of this disease will perhaps enable you to recallNts ,- work and the nature of the disease » from past effects. 1 . It is easily recognized, it attacks 1 3 all parts of the tree, leaves, branches, ■ , flowers and fruit. It is most easily '> detected on the leaves. 1 j Some time during the spring, the I r leaves 'thicken, curl up, change color ' . from green to a light yellowish green. • I As the disease advance?, the leaves I t turn brown and soon fall off. This i < diseases causes a severe loss of vital- . j ity to the tree, which not only loses ! its leaves and fruit but loses the food . j which the leaves would have jproduc- ' . ed had they remained healthy. Be- ■ . i side this the .trees will have to form 1 . new leaves. The spdres of the dis- ] . ease live over winter on the bark and 1 . gain entrance to the buds when the ; growth starts in the spring. This : | disease, is controlled practically by 1 ; spraying with lime sulphur one part i . to eight parts of water. '' Apple trees maybe sprayed now 1 r for San Jose and Oyster, Shell Scale. ' 1 Using Lime Sulphur Solution one i part to eight or nine parts water or if Dry Lime Sulphur is used, it will require 12 to ft lbs. to 50 gallon of | ' water, _ ! ' A delayed dormant spray may be : , applied, in order to destroy the Aphis 1 which is the most discouraging group to fight -of all the "hugs." The same , above spray is used applying it as soon as the Aphis hatches, which will about the time the leaf buds are P or showing a little green. If 0 first generation is destroyed, ' there will be1 no future generations. ' 1 delayed "dormant spray is omitted. . 0 future sprays will have to contain I 11 Black Leaf 40 to combat "the Aphis. J They will be much' more difficult tp
