PENNSY VETERANS CONDUCT CAMPAIGN FOR ORGANIZATIONS Employes long associated with the Pennsylvania railroad are conducting a vigorous campaign to organize Veteran Employes' associations on all divisions which have not already organized and to increase the membership of those already in existence. As soon as the divisional organizations are perfected it is planned to hold a Pennsylvania system convention to be attended by the officers and delegates of the various associations.
Reports received from the four regional vice presidents indicate that ap
proximately 38,778 employes are eli
gible for membership in the Veterans' associations by virtue of twenty or
more years of service with the Penn sylvania railroad. Of the 190,000 em
pioyes on trie payroll at present, approximately 20 per cent have served
the railroad and the public at least
a score of years. One employe in five i is classed as a veteran. I Many of the 6.185 former Pennsylvania employes now on the pension "roll of honor" are members of the Veterans' associations on the divisions where they formerly worked. Several of the local organizations have nearly a 100 per cent membership of eligible employes. The purpose of the Veteran Employes' jassociations is outlined as follows in the constitution of one of the largest local units: "The object of this association 6hall be the encouragement and promotion of friendly intercourse and mutual regard among its members and a spirit of esteem for the corporation in whose service they are employed and enthusiastic devotion to its interests." Since these associations were first started by the employes themselves in 1S97, they have been among the most active factors in perpetuating those traditions and ideals of public service and mutual cooperation between officers and men which have been handed down through 75 years of Pennsylvania railroad history.
FEW PEOPLE ARE AWARE VINEYARD LOCATED WITHIN HALF HOUR'S DRIVE OF RICHMOND
That there is a large vineyard with
in a halt hour's drive of the city is
probably unknown to more than a few people in Richmond, most thinking of vineyards as native to France or Spain, with none in this country nearer than Canifornia on the west or Connecticut on the east. This yard, however, is flourishing as well as any of those at a greater distance, and in fact, was one of the
also a goodly number of nice young cherry trees set on a steeply sloping hillside. Lately Mr. Martin admitted Frank Wesler, a graduate of the horticultural course at Purdue university, to partnership. Mr. Wesler graduated from Purdue in 1918. At the time of forming the partnership the farm was incorporated, but for a conservative capitalization, and no difficulty has been experienced in

REV. MURRAY CALLED BY SEYMOUR CHURCH
Word has been received here that the Rev. L. E. Murray, who was pastor of the local First Christian church for nearly eight years, has been called to the pastorate of the Christian chuch at Seymour. It is reported that the Rev. Murray preached there last Sundav and was so well liked that
the congregation prevailed upon him to stay. The Rev. A. L. Stamper, new pastor of the local Christian church, arrived in Richmond Thursday with his family. He has two sons at home, Joseph and Allen. The former will enter Earlham and the latter will enter high school. Their residence will be at 132 South Ninth street .
principal sources of income this year to the fruit farm on which it is located. The vineyard, which is illustrated herewith, is located on the Martin and Wesler fruit farm near New Paris, O. The old vines are four years old, and a number of one year old vines are coming on. For several years Walter K. Martin, formerly connected with a nursery at Greenville, has been developing a
small piece of land within a mile of . New Paris with a view to concentrat-
ing on fruit production. The small farm which he purchased when he j first left the nursery, while only 14 , acres in extent, already has been
brought to a high state of produc-1 tion, measured by the financial re- j turns, although still better results are expected, the highest production not; having been realized yet. I Has Other Orchards j Besides the grapes, which on account of the poor weather conditions for fruit and consequent high prices,
realized a neat sum oi money mis year, there are two peach orchards on the place, one just put out and coming into bearing. In another, which is not in such a high state of care, the peaches were set out as fillers between apple trees, to which they will soon give place. There is
completing the plans as to planting and in financing new undertakings. A tract cf nearly a hundred acres across the road from the original
farm was leased recently on a 10-year lease, with the option of purchase, and already 77 acres have been set
out to fruit trees, mostly apples.
The filler system of planting was used, permanent apple trees being
set at a distance of about 40 feet, with peaches and earlier apples set

Hi
between- These "fillers" and "semipermanent" trees vill be cut out as they age and as the other apples come into bearing, thus giving a continuous Income while waiting for the
orchard to attain its full production. In addition to the grounds near the city, another tract was bought four years ago in what is commonly called the "Old Dowler place," four miles to the north of New Paris. This farm includes about 25 acres of old apple
trees, which, when visited lately, were loaded heavily with fruit Many varieties can be found, and practically
all the fruit is perfect, the owners be
ing firm believer in spraying.
A few years ago this orchard, neg
lected, unpruned and unsprayed, hard
ly produced enough perfect apples to
supply the owners. The fruit was
sold at so much per tree, a common price being 50 cents. When Mr. Martin took the management of the orchard he leased it for a lump sum at first, and within a short time he had It to such a state of production that last year he realized as much from four trees as the rent he paid for the whole archard at first Set Out New Trees Fruit Is marketed in Dayton and Cincinnati. Old trees are being cut out and much pruning done in thi3 old orchard and new trees are being set out wherever space admits. The need of much pruning is still apparent, and apologies were voiced for this by the owners, who state that they have not been able as yet to catch
up with the work which should be done. When the orchard was visited they w ere both found swinging scythes beneath the trees, a mower was being operated by another, and a fourth was cutting and piling brush. Some of the trees presented living pictures of the sort that are so often to be seen on the covers of nursery catalogs and so infrequently observed elsewhere. Young Jonathan trees, especially on the Dowler place, were
heavily loaded with deliciously col-j ored apples, so numerous that the limbs were bending clear to the ground in many cases. Have Spraying Apparatus Equipment of the farm Includes spraying apparatus, of course, with a gravity tank' located on the highest ground. Here the spraying material is mixed in the orchard which is to be sprayed. The tank is filled by water pumped through a pipe line from the well. There is also a caterpillar tractor, this type being neessary to negotiate the steep hills and short turns which are to be found in the orchard. It is most used In the annual cultivation of the orchards, the cover crops being
disced under in late autumn. . Rye is used as a green manuring crop, and a liberal acreage was seeded again
this fall. No plows are used in the
orchards, the disc alone being used
for cultivation, and for turning under
vegetation.
Neighbors, and many farmers at considerable distances as well, are
watching the attempts of the Martin
Wesler corporation with considerable
interest, as: it is felt that fruit, if it
can be grown successfully as these men seem to be proving, will add a large sum to the income of this section
of th,e country. , IDENTIFY TRAIN VICTIM DANVILLE, 111., Sept 9. The iden
