Porter, slate commissioner of Foods and Mar kets, relative to the prospects of mov ing the unusually large apple crop of this year. Doctor P o rter cautions the growers not to allow rum ors regarding shortage of storage space and cars to alarm them -and impel them to sacri fice their crop a t the low prices now being offered by some buyers. As to storage space. th,c commission er has taken up w ith the representa tives of the B r itish Government the m a tter of moving the large quantities of export m e at now held in some of the fruit storages and indications are th a t this space will be made available for the late apples. Investigations made by the agents of the division al so indicate th a t the railroads are mak ing excellent progress in accumulating cars for the crop movement aud that | transportation conditions will be bet ter than they liave been for Some time. In addition, the Division of Foods and M arkets begins today a state-wide campaign to stim u late the consump tion of apples through the apple ship ping season. Newspapers, chambers o f commerce and consumers’ organiza tions have been enlisted and the net tresult is bound to be an increase in •the quantity of the fru it which can be sold. Also m any large chairf stores have, been induced to buy direct from producers and to featu re special sales of New York S tate apples. The State College of A g riculture, the New York City Commissioner of Markets, and tlie mayors of all cities in the state 12 SLAYERS 10 have been asked to co-operate in tho campaign. W h en the full buying power of the consum ers begins to be I felt, as the result of this campaign, it should be possible to move the crop a t fair prices to the growers instead of at the disastrous prices now /of fered, the state commissioner believes. Many of the chain stores prefer to receive the apples which they will buy in bushel buskets and other packages smaller than tho barrel and this fea ture will m a terially aid the present diculty resulting from shortage of bar rels. It is im p erative, liowcve, that the growers use every effort to main tain a high standard of grading and packing in all their shipments of pack age fruit. I t is only by thus keeping faith with the dealers who will handle the crop and the consumers who will buy it that this whole campaign for in creased consumption of New York State apples can bo made a success for it hinges entirely upon inducing all who buy the apples to come back again and again for more till the crop is moved, Mr. P o rter declares. “New York apples are to be adver tised this year in a way never before undertaken. The effect of this will be felt in the years which follow, so that*good packing and careful grading wero never more im p o rtant than they are this year,” the commissioner adds. | B e a v e r , Zibeline and j H a t t e r ’s Plush j SAILORS ] $2.98, 3.98, 4.98, 5.98 J $6.50, 8.50, 10.00, 12.501 $14.50, upwards | In the popular Knox blocks, straight sailors, | roll brim s and mushrooms | / | Reasonably priced as consistent with good j quality | A WONDERFUL ASSORTMENT OF New Feathered Hats Received Today ALSO NEW SAILOR HATS CHILDREN’S SCHOOL HATS NOW READY SPECIAL PRICES ON ALL HATS FOR LABOR DAY ECONOMY MILLINERY SHOP 9 South St. ^ Auburn, N. Y. West Wind Drift — B y — George Barr McCutcheon JAIL IN OCTOBER Chicago, Sept. 2.—All records for legal executions in Cook County and possibly in the S tate of Illinois, will be broken here October 14 and 15, county officials; believe, .when 12 men are sentenced to be hanged for m ur der. t Eight of the m en are under sen tence to die October 14 and four on the following day. In addition two other slayers who have been convicted are awaiting sentence and it is pos sible that they also may hang on one or the other of the two days. Chicago has had several wholesale executions in the past—the most not able on November 11, 1867, when four of the H a y m a rket anarphists were hanged—but nothing in the memory of jail officials approaches a death list of 12 in two days. Hangings in the Cook County jail take place in the corridor of one of the main cell blocks. There is just room for a double gallows, so it is probable, according- to George F. Lee, the jailer, th a t the men will be ex ecuted in pairs. The hangings will cost tlie state approximately $3,000, including a $100 fee for the sheriff for each man hung. Those to be hanged October 14 are Sam Cardinella, leader of a black- hand gang whose members confessed several m u rders; Nick Viani, Thomas Errico, F rank Campione, Sam Lopez, Joe Castanzo, Sam F e r rara and Henry Reese, tlie la tte r a negro. Tbe October 15 list includes A rthur Haensel, R ichard W ilson, Harry Andre Olid Fraink I-Iagcr. Hansel, who killed his wife, w as to have been executed last spring but w a s granted a Reprieve five minutes before he was to have marched to the gallows. Andre was convicted of killing a watchman while robbing a factory safe. Wilson was found guilty in the sam e case, although ho was on another floor of the build ing when Andre, his partner, killed the man. The ju r y decided that as an accomplice he w a s equally guilty.

NEW BOOKS ON CANNING VIE WITH FICTION A SURPASSING STORY OF ADVENTURE Read It la Next Sunday’s P o s t - S t a n d a r d An interesting array of up to the minute reading m a tter for book “fans” is called to public attention by Miss Theodora Kellogg, librarian of Seymour Library, .who has returned from her vacation. Among the timely books for present reading Miss Kellogg recommends a (number pf books and pamphlets on “canning and preserv ing.” The library staff will help read ers to pick out any of these books. Miss Kellogg recommends amoug the post-war books, “McKinley’s School History of the G reat W a r” and Roland Usher’s \Story of tho Great W ar.” Other excellent books that deal with special phases of tho w ar are recom mended as follow s: Conan Doyle’s “British Campaign in, France aud Flanders,” in six volumes. Volumes dealing w ith personal experiences in the great conflict, and giving Ameri ca’? version of the w a r aro: John B. McMaster’s “The United States in the World W ar,” and a volume that has attracted a great ^ leal of attention, Keyne’s “Economic Consequences of the ‘ Peace.” Miss Kellogg speaks of tho steady popularity of the old authors, such as Victor Hugo, Charles Dickens and Jules Verne. However, tlie librarian admits th a t th e re is ino mad Septem ber rush fo r Shakespeare’s immortal works. “Recent Fiction,\ Miss Kellogg said “shows that a higher plane is in evi dence. Tho recent assertion that present day authors are not to be com pared to old w riters is proving with out foundation.” Among tho popular fiction are Oppenheim’s \The Great Impersonation,” Leonard Merrick’s “While P a r is Laughed,\ \Conrad in Quest of H is Youth,” Lucy Mont gomery’s “F u r th e r Chronicles of Avonlea,” M ario Conway Oemler’s two recent books, “Slippery McGee\ and “A^Voman Nam ed Smith.” Miss Kellogg also called attention to tho fact th a t three publications are on file at the library “which are too Old to.be even read.” These publications are “A View of S ir Jfaaac Newton’s Philosophy/’ printed in London in 1728, W illiam Gilbert of Colchester’s “On the Magnet,” printed in the same city in 1600, and a map of the Village of A u burn published in 1S34. These curios are in a glass show case. In the same show case is exhibited, inclosed in a wooden, glass-covered fram .e w h a t is represented to be ■& lock of h a ir from Georgo WnsMng- ton’s head. Tho h a i r was presented to Howard B . Case, ono of the found ers of-Seymour Library, by Mrs. D. O. Bradley. The lock is credited to be p a r t of the original lock given her by Jam es A. H a m ilton in 1871. It was given to Mr. H am ilton by his mother, wife of Alexander Hamilton.
