BACKYARD GARDENS AFFECT BUSINESS ON PUBLIC MARKET Richmond's publio market have slipped back a cog or two this summer, and unlP'e the business slump In many other lines, the falling off of market trade cannot be blamed on the war in foreign lands. Instead of adversity being responsible, it is prosperity that has caused all the trouble. Not in many years has there been such a profusion of "green stuff" on the markets, and naturally enougli when the expert gardeners are pro ducing great qnantitias, the amateurs are doing fairly well themselves. In plain words the backyard gardens and the vacant lot gardens have been producing so bounteously that the "ulti mate consumer" has been consuming his own garden stuff. George McKinley, city, market mas ter, is authority for the statement that the city's public markets have never been so well-supplied, and yet are doing but little business. There are more gardener , on market these days that last summer, but they are receiving comparatively little encouragement, the market master says, because of tne fact that hundreds ci citizens are this year producing more or less garden truck of their own. LARGE APPLE CROP EXPECTED IN COUNTY Wayne county is not accorded a high place in the Indiana apple belt, but for all that she will this year produce a wonderful crop of the fruit, and in orchards, where farmers have been giving attention to the need of spraying to kill insect pests, the yield is to be exceptionally great. According to leading horticulturists of the State this year's apple crop will lead the entire country in proportion to its orchards. The gain of Indiana over previous years will be more than 20 per cent, while many states will show a falling, off. The Indiana apple show which will be held at Indianapolis early in November will, as a result of the big yield, be made an event of special interest to the farmers and horticulM'-W.

GERMANY MISLED ABOUT WAR EXPORTS TO EUROPE
The German . people are informed by their home newspapers that onehalf of the ammunition used by the allies, the enemies of Germany, is now supplied by the United States. Undoubtedly this falsehood Is generally believed in Germany, and it explains the feeling of all Germans that their submarine attack upon enemy ship's carrying this ammunition shall not be abated. One of the terrible things about war is that the beliefs of belligerents are largely founded upon misconception or falsehood. The German people are now tortured by suffering and by falsehoods. Possessing, as they do, all the iron ore and all the steel mills of Belgium, and nearly 50 per cent of all the iron and steel industrial production of France, they know that without purchases from neutral sources their enemies will, in time, run out of ammunition, and, therefore, be unable to resist German attacks until outside supplies can be obtained. But the official figures given out by our Treasury Department the other day, showing the classification of exports and imports, prove incontestably that the quantity of ammunition delivered by American manufacturers has been grossly exaggerted. During the eleven months ended CAMBRIDGE CITY Mrs. Frank Luddington Is spending a few days with friends in Indianapolis. Visits Her Parents.

June 1 our exports of crude foodstuffs were $481,000,000, against $120,000,000 last year. The exports of partly prepared foodstuffs including canned beef and other supplies doubtless largely for the armies, were $406,000,000, against $272,000,000 last year. The increase in these two items alone in eleven months was $489,000,000, which amply accounts for our high favorable balance of trade. On the other hand of manufactures our exports in the eleven months were $1,015,000,000, against $1,008,000,000 in the same period of last year and $1,089,000,000 in the same period two years ago. Ammunition comes under the' classification of manufactures wholly or partly complete. An the very small quantity already delivered has probably had little effect upon the war thus far, as it is less than 2 per cent of our total exports. In the opinion of one of the ordnance experts of the United States army, it is insufficient in the aggregate to supply the allied armies a single day. It is further to be noted that thus far practically no arms have been shipped from this country. The enormous contracts for arms made with the belligerents call for shipment beginning in August, and run three years.

SILVERTDWN
POINT OUT DEFECT IN ASPHALT STREET
During last night's , special session of the city council, attention was call ed by Councilman Williams to the complaint heard that North A street ' at the Sixth street intersection had shown some indications of serious settling. It was said that this was due possibly to the sewer recently completed, and that the street in ques tion might be defective at this point. The city, however, has no worry coming on this account, it was pointed out by the city attorney. The asphalt contractors are responsible for any defects of this or any other character that may develop during their work. Five per cent of the contract price is held for one year to bind the company to remedy any defects and for a period of four years thereafter the company must provide a maintenance bond to care for the newly made thoroughfare. For five years, therefore, the city should be care free when it comes to North A street. Alter that time it will devolve on the city to meet the cost of maintenance.
