OOZE TRAPS AUTO SYAACUSE GIRLS WHO WERE HIT BY AUTO SUE OWASCO MERCHANTS “ S u b m a rining” , in nn automobile the latest sport to be tried out O w a sco Lako and so fa r it lias been extrem e ly unsuccessful, not to say un pleasant. L. Gordon W a lla c e of this c ity automobile salesman, endeavored to pilot liis car across the old outlet to Island P a r k from the m a inland at the foot o f the road leading to the Lake from L a k e Avenue at N o rw o o d . He •■gave her tlie gas\ Su n d a y morning but did not make the east bank. W a llace evidently thought the water w a s shallow enough fo r him to cross w ith ease. A t all events he drove dovro to the lako with a young la a y compan ion all prepared for the jou rn e y . He gave the “ boat” the once over, cranked her up. and off they w e n t across the shallow s . The wheels disappeared un der the w a ter and then a portion of the body of the car. The engine's snort finally w a s smothered and a f t e r a few gasps died out altogether, and as W a l lace had neglected to bring along a raft or a couple of lifesavers he w a s com pelled to do the W a lter R a leig h stunt anil es< .irt his fair com panion to less dangerous ground. Tliis necessitated a hazardous trip through considerable mud w ith his fair burden in his arms. Consequently when the couple once more reached dry laud they w o re any thing but happy and wqre considerably bed ragged and muddy. A f t e r providing accomm odations for his companion at one o f the camps nearby, W a llace borrowed a bathing su it and endeavored to “ go out and go under.” T h e car had dropped off into deep w a ter, and kept sinking in the ooze at tho bottom of the channel and a s did W a llnce. The lu c k less voyager decided to enlist tlie aid o f some near by farm e r s . Ho finally secured- two team s of horses which pitted tlieir com bined power against the obdurate inachinc held fast in the muddy clutches of the old channel. The ef fo r t w a s vain. T h e horses finally w e r o compelled to give up but the channel’s triumph w a s shortlived. W a llace phoned for an ,auto truck, and inside o f an hour th e ' \h a l f drowned” autom o b ile had been hauled to safety. Its circulation w a s restored and M r. W a llace > soon w a s able to drive it from the scene. LOSE MATCH IN ROCHESTER T lie O wasco Country Club golf team ,/'Robert W.

B a k e more apples and apple p ies! H a v e apple sauce for b r e a k fast every m o rning! is tho appeal to consum ers m a d e in a statem ent is sued today by D r . Eugene H . Porter of the State D ivision o f Foods and, M a r k e ts. W ith a bum p er crop in all the E a s t ern States, N e w Y o r k th is year w ill produce one-fifth of a ll the apples raised in the U n ited States. In all there w ill bo approxim a tely 40,000 cars of N e w Y o r k State apples to m a rket. T h is quan tity is several times as m a n y as the m a rkets can take care of. U n less the usual consumption is increased m a n y o f these apples w ill be left to rot on the ground, fo r tbe price w h ich the gro w e r is now offered for them is only .$1.50 a barrel and that sum does not p a y the cost of the barrel and, the picking and hauling to the sta tion— not to mention the other costs of the grow e r in raising the apples. In spite of this large production and lo w prices a t the shipping points the retail price fo r apples has not lowered accordingly. T h i s is not entirely be cau se reatilers are ignorant of the m a rket, nor because they are inten tional profiteers in apples, according to Com m issioner Porter. The real trouble is that the retailers buy in such sm a ll quantities and their turnover is so slow th a t they charge a large m a rgin of profit to protect themselves and p a y the high overhead cost of their sm a ll volume o f sales. I f consum ers w ill demand plenty of apples from the retailers and make it clear that they w ill buy more and more of them if the price is lowered, tlie ap ples and the low e r prices w ill be quick ly forthcom ing It tlie retailers begin to buy in quantity the great volume of apples cau be moved on much smaller profit m a rgains and the grow e r can re ceive enough to pay his legitimate costs of production In addition to the ordinary retail stores where apples are now sold, Com missioner P o rter states that arrange ments aro being made w ith many largo chain stores and department stores that do not ordinarily handle fru it of any kind to this year buy apples direct from the grow e r s and feature sales of apples at specially low- prices. Arrange ments are also being made with the m arket bureaus of nearby states to fea ture apple cam p a igns in these states to stim u late tlie consumption of this fruit. “ An apple a day keeps the doctors a w a y ” is an old and very true saying, Commissioner Porter says “ A pples are an excellent food The red striped Dutchess apples which are just now coming into the market are the vor.v best for pies and cooking. Later will come the Twenty-ounce, a large red ap ple that has no superior for baking purposes. Still later will come the Me- Iuto.-li a sm all, bright red apple which is superfine for eating purposes. These New York Stato apples are worthy of a place on every table. I f consumers will only act and bring their great buy ing power to liear on the problem it can be solved ; the farm e rs can be <avod from loss and the consumers se- j cure an excellent food at low cost. HOURS HAVE use m o re apples. A s a begin n ing in the d r ive it is urged that the first week ln Septem b e r be made an “ a p p le pie” week a n d f t h a t every man, w o m a n and child in the state consume som e o f this wholesom e food during the week. If this w e r e done the problem o f moving the e a r ly apples, w h ich a r e best fitted fo r cooking purposes, w o u ld be solved.” FINAL DAY AT CAMP ROTARY Cam p R o tary, O w a s c o L a k e , Ang. 30.— T h e first official B o y Sco u t Coun cil cam p for the A u b u rn Council will close this evening a f t e r m ess.
