Criminal Court. Alamance Superior Court conven ed Monday for the trial of criminal oases only. A grist of 138 cases confronted Judce E. 11. Cranmer and Solicitor L. P. McLendon. After tue grand jury, of which H. M. Scott was appointed foreman, had been charged the court began its task. The Judgo charged the jury straight from the shoulder, .and some say he preached a fine lay- sermon. Jas. A. Winningham was at his old post as officer to the grand jury; fact is he has become almost indispens able in that capacity. At this writing good progress has been made in disposing of the docket and the prospect is that the road force will be materially increased. Club Boys and Girls Return. j The Alamance club boys and girls who left here on the morning of July 30 for Washington by automobile returned last Friday in good shape. The party was in charge of W. Kerr Scott, County Agent, and Miss Edna Keinhardt, Home Agent, and con sisted of 23 boys, 30 girls, 8 drivern and 7 chapepmes, in all 70, besides the colored cook. A full account of the party's me auderings would make a long story, so we will only touch it in high p'aces. The first spent at Curies Neck Farm in Virgin : a; a day and night in Richmond seeing the city. Spent part of four days in and around the capital city, came back through the Shenandoah ley, spending part of three days and landed back at Graham last Friday. It was a great and enjoyable trip. The Albright Reunion- Several from here attended the Albright family reunion at Mt. ller mon last Saturday and report about 700 present, loads of good things to eat and an enjoyable get-together. A number of good and interesting talks were made. Rev. D. I. Offman, a genealogist of repute, states that the rectus ' show that the Albrights of mance trace their lineage back to the royal family of Hapsbnrg of Germany. The name in Germany was spelled Albrecht (we believe). If only 700 of the Albright kitb and kin were present they would hardly be missed from tbs thronp scattered over Alamance county, thi» state and other states. So numerous and so prominent was the family when this county was established about 76 years ago that a township was given the and it was fit ting that the reunion was] held in Albright township. ♦ PER EON. • + + + ++++++++++++>+++++++.| +*++4 Hon.

The ■ most perfect fruit of the entire ' field may bo produced on a low i yielding plants produoing fruit of > desirable shape, color sice and i quality. "When well ripened, pick the tomatoes and dump them into a wooden vessel • preferably an oak i barrel. They should be thorough ly crushed, a little water added to cover the pulp and then allowed to ferment until the gelatinous material about the seeds ha* dis appeared. The time required /or fermentation varies butt usually takes from two to three dayp. Care must be taken not to allow excessive fermentation or the vi tality of the seed may be injured. When fermentation is complete water should be added and ;the mixture stirred slowly. The seeds will settle to the bottom and the palp will rise to the top where it can be poured off. When the seed have been separated from the pulp they can be transferred to a i smaller vessel and thoroughly j washed. The water is poured off ] and the seed placed upon a cheese , oloth lo dry. Drying should be rapid in order to prevent sprout ing. When thoroughly dry the seed fthould be put in a cloth bag j and stored away in a dry cool • place." 1 According to Mr. Schtnit, one bushel of tomatoes will produoe from 3 to 4 ounces of seed and one ounce of seed should produce enough plants to set an acre.
