Decision to provide a public m a r k e t this season—even with the lim ite d facilities available so lor—is in lin e •with public demand. Patrons of th e market want it continued; gardenexs and farmers wlio have sold produce there want it continued,. Tbe c i t y government’s job is to serve the p e o p le of the city and to hare regard as w e l l for the convenience of people w h o come here to exchange (heir commodi ties for money or goods. A decided want exists among those who ra ise produce for a suitable site in A u b u r n where they may offer it for sale to c ity consumers. AU these producers tra d e In Auburn—spend tbeir money bere. They are our patrons as much as w e are theirs, and their wishes should fee- considered. As soon as finances will permit, tlie city government announces, a suitable market will be provided. It should 1 >e an all-year market, where producers and consumers may meet in relative comfort for at least eight or te n months of the year If they General I^eonard Wood had 117 dele gate* when the contest hearings closed in Chicago last night Hiram John son had 112. Nest in order of pledged delegations caine those for Messrs. Sproul, X jo vedpn and Harding, with 76, 66 and, 29, respectively. Remaining are c few scattered votes for Poin dexter, Sutherland and Pritchard. The total of- pledged delegates so far as the contests had been disposed of was 452, w ith 75 remaining to be de cided- Tbe nninstructed delegates numbered 445, or only 82 less than the total of pledge^ delegates scattered among eight candidates. It seems clear that the result of the Republican convention is even more uncertain— so far as outsiders know— than appeared a week ago. A majority of the uninstructed delegates, by swinging to Johnson, could nominate him; or a sufficient majority swing ing to Spronl or Lowden could nom inate either of these. If any one has a definite line on the Chicago conven tion, it is .someone in closer touch with the situation than the newspapers. Men may be ieari^ with the utmost confidence th a t Lowden will be nomin ated, that Johnson may be, or to whisper confidentially that \it's going to be Coolidge and it's all settled.” But the probability is that nobody knows. Xor will anyone 'intii the battle of ballots and t!-- trading of votes reaches some definite stage at Chicago. DIFS SUDDENLY, PREPARING TO TAKE TRIP WEST Seneca Falls, June 4.—Preparing to make a trip West on a visit, John T. Doff, 78 years of age, was stricken sud denly last night and died in a few minutes. Mr. Duff had planned to spend some time in the West and had announced to friends yesterday after noon and evening that he intended to start today. Instead he lay cold in death. Mr.,Duff had always lived id Seneca Fails. He was employed for many years at the plant of the Westcott- Jewell Company. Surviving besides his wife axe a son, Harold T. .Duff, and two daughters, Mrs. Catherine McBrine of Toronto, Canada, and Mrs. Lester Bellows of Waterloo. corrected if he submits to an opera tion on the brain. For two years with the exception of the recent outbreak of thievery, Spiliet has been a model workman, so much so that his employ ers have offered to aid him in his effort to lead an exemplary life. He has. been employed as a pottery worker. County Judge Barrett who' heard the argument and the opinion of the physicians, Imposed a sentence of three and one-half years at Auburn prison, which he suspended. This sen tence will be* effective if Spilletc fails to have the operation performed. He is at present under probation. THIS TOO IS POSSIBLE. OPERATION MAY KEEP BURGLAR OUT OF PRISON Albany Journal. While the economies of the white- collared man leave his living still out of adjustment to his salary, those who do the many kinds of work that re quire what is called unskilled, labor are fairly comfortable, with pay higher than that which a few years ago skilled mechanics received.

Educa tion, especially that of higher degree. Is becoming a less important factor in the world’s market Education is now more general. When only a few conld read ana write, those few were at an is'crw that nearly everyone can read or write, and knows consider able besides, the white-collared supply is greater than the demand. Perhaps in the future education will be its own reward. No one who has acquired the faculty to enjoy the world's best literature, art and music would say that he had wasted his time in school.

Soon we may not be surprised to see college men working with pick and shovel by day and attending symphony con -erts in the evening Prank Spillett, 30, indicted for bur glary and with a criminal career cover ing fifteen years, has been paroled by County Judge Barrett, of Onondaga County, on condition that he submit to a 6 nrgical operation to cure him of the mania to steal. Spillett pleaded guilty to the charge of entering a clubhouse at Syracuse and stealing a quantity of silverware. He told the court he didn’t want a lawyer. His criminal record was looked up by the court and, it was found that he had seven terms all over the country. His criminal career be gan when ho was a young man. It is claimed by his mother that when he was sixteen years old he was hit on the head with a coupling pin by a brakeman on the New York Cen tral. He was stealing a ride at the time. It is claimed that this blow changed his entire life and that he be came nn habitual thief when drunk.

'When the garden is an eighth of an^acre or more in size, corn can be grown to advantage. Com should be planted after danger of frost is past aDd the ground has warmed up. One to two pints of seed should be enough for most families for both green com and for canning. This amount would require 400 to S00 feet of row when planted in bills two feet apart in the row. The rows should be 30 inches to 36 inches apart A liberal amount of stable manure, should be used, if avaialble, with a high grade fertilizer at the rate of 500 to 600 pounds an acre. Succession plantings of the same variety .may be made, or early, midseason, and late varieties may be put in at one planting. The home gardener can raise better sweet com than he can buy since this vegetable begins to deteriorate in sweetness and flavor almost as soon as it is picked. No one knows the true flavor of sweet com who has not seen it come smoking hot to the/table with in one hour after it left the stalks, say the gardeners at the State College at Ithaca. Th'e following varieties are recom mended : Early: Golden Bantam, Cory. Midseason: Metropolitan. Sey mours and Sweet Orange. Black Mexi can. I>ate: Country Gentleman, Ever green. i Beans.

This crop will grow bet ter most .other vegetables- oa^'or- dinary home garden soils provided they are well drained a n d prepared. The better the soil the better the crop, however, since ,beans respond to good treatment the same as any other vegetable. All varieties of garden beans, if planted in excess of the amounts needed for green beans and for canning, can be allowed to ripen, harvested in the fall and used as dry beans in the winter. Beans should be planted after all danger' of frost is past Plant the seed two or three inches deep on light soils, and one to two inches deep, on heavy soils. Plant bush beans in rows two feet apart for hand cultivation, and three feet apart for horse cultiva tion. Bush beans are commonly plant ed' three to four inches apart in the row. ' Bush lima beans should be planted six to ten inches apart in rows three feet apart, and pole beans should be, planted in h'ills four feet apart; plant eight to ten seeds to the hill and. thin to four plants. Bush lima and pole varieties should be grown only in the large garden. For a. green-podded bush bean, Stringless Greenpod is a good variety, says the State College of j Agriculture. If a wax-podded sort is preferred. Wardwell Wax is good. For j lima beans. Henderson bush lima is j good and Early Leviathan is a good pole variety.
