MOO per year Sandstone Canter ef the Ws LAUNCH SIDEWALK IMPROVEMENT CAMPAIGN COUNTY TO RECEIVE MONIY POR ROADS PERMISSION ORANTED TO COUNCIL TO HAVE OUTLET ON NORTH MAIN POR EXCESS.WATER It was decided at the meeting of the council on Tuesday night to launch a sidewalk Improvement campaign. Thia matter haa been neglected throughout tha winter months, and aa -there ore many pieces were Improvements can be made, the council deem It wise to make an early start this spring. The council haa a complete list of tbe names of property ownera whose sidewalks are ln a bod condition and they are planning to get In touch with those people In the near future. Chanege Water Course. The state health Inspector, through visit here Monday, has authorised the council to open the sewer on North Main street and to run a tile pipe to the natural water course which flows under the culvert on that street. This plan was suggested a short time ago when several residents of North Main street and Martin avenue complained to the council that in time of heavy rain their cellars were Oiled with WeV .ter coming from the sewer. It la thought that by opening the. sewer, in time of heavy rains the water will be carried off by the natural water course and not cause any damage to residents of that locality. Engineer Warden reported that he had made a aurvey ot Pearl street ln anticipation of establishing a sidewalk grade on that street. As several residents of that street are not in favor of laying sidewalks, they ore opposed to have a grade staked out. A. W. Rabl. local contractor, presented to the council the necessity of laying a grade on that street. As a result, the council authorised the engineer te establish a grade on the west side of Pearl atreet from Park avenue to the end of the street. . T. B. Oawn, of North Main atreet, waa preaent at the meeting and com' plained to the* council that a mistake had been made in the erecting of the wall In front of his property. Contractor Jason was preaent and explained why the wall waa not satisfactory to Mr. Oawn. The council authorised Mr. Jason to proceed with ■ the work and to come to some agreement with Mr. Oawn concerning the wall. As a great deal of trouble has been reported concerning the sewer system, Mayor Smythe decided that he would make a thorough Inspection of the sewers aa soon as the paving is started on Milan avenue. Secretary of State Harvey C. Smith haa announced the distribution of $1, 259,107 79, to various counties throughout the state tor road improvement, all of which came from the state automobile department. In- the distribution, Lorain county receives 112,139.90 This amount Is re-distributed by the county auditor among the various municipalities of the county. ORE-HALF APPLE CROP POSSIBLE Indication* are for About Half a Crop of Peaches and Cherries—Slightly More than One-half a Crop of Pears and Plums Is Poaalble WILL SHAPE PLANS TO START PAVING 0A8 AND WATER MAINS WILL EE OVERHAULED—WORK TO PROCEED RAPIDLY As the bida for contracts for the paving of Milan avenue are to be received by the village clerk on Saturday, May IS, a lengthy discussion was held by the council Tuesday night concerning tbe preparatory steps that will be necessary before the contractor Marts work. Jacob Baus, manager of the Water Works company, was present and reported tbat private connections were now being put In and that tbey will undoubtedly be finished by the latter part of this week. It will be necessary, however, to make some changes on the water main before the paving is put in but it is not certi^^s MERCHANTS' BASEBALL TEAM TO GIVE AWAY CAMERA By C. J. WBST, State Agriculture Statistician. From 36 to 60 per cent of the apples i yet, whether or not tbe changes will were Injured by frosts and freeses during April. The later blooming varieties and late buds will In part make up for this damage so that from present indications a one-halt to three- quarters crop of apples is possible, according to reports received by C. J. West. Agricultural Statistician, State- Federal Crop Reporting Service. About half the peaches and cherries are killed. The damage to cherries and plums averages around 46 per cent. These estimates may be changed when further information Is received on the damage from the frosts of the 28th and 29th. The fruit along the Lake Shore and on the Islands Is not serloulsy Injured. The damage ln the southern part of the state Is severe though the greatest damage Is In a belt from east to west through the middle part of the state. Summer and early apples seem to have suffered most damage. The greatest damage was to orchards on low ground. The Amherst Merchants' baseball team will raffle off a camera at tbe Kuss drug store on Park avenue, Saturday night, May t. The camera is a Brownie No. 1 A, autographic, and universal focus. Tickets have been on sale for the past two weeks and a largo number have already been sold. The proceeds will' be used to finance the team through the summer season. The camera Is now on display in the Kuss drug store window. 75 ATTEND JUNIOR- SENMJJJECEPTION WELL-ARRANGED PROGRAM WAS CARRIED OUT IN PITTING MANNER POR THE OCCASION be made before or after the grading hae been completed. Mr. Baus further stated that the changing of the muin will be started as soon as the private connections have been fln: ished. Engineer Warden reported tbat there would be several changes necessary in the gas main on Milan avenue and that John Fritz, manager of the gas company, would be ready to start work as soon as the pipe arrived here. As there are but a few changes necessary it will take only a short time to complete the work on the gas line. It was also decided that an extension of the Banltary sewer on Milan avenue be laid on Seeley avenue as several residents on that street are planning to make connections there. If the connections are made to the Milan avenue sewer the distance will be nearly 120 feet, which is too great a distance for private connections. B. M. A.

Chanege Water Course. The state health Inspector, through visit here Monday, has authorised the council to open the sewer on North Main street and to run a tile pipe to the natural water course which flows under the culvert on that street. This plan was suggested a short time ago when several residents of North Main street and Martin avenue complained to the council that in time of heavy rain their cellars were Oiled with WeV .ter coming from the sewer. It la thought that by opening the. sewer, in time of heavy rains the water will be carried off by the natural water course and not cause any damage to residents of that locality. Engineer Warden reported that he had made a aurvey ot Pearl street ln anticipation of establishing a sidewalk grade on that street. As several residents of that street are not in favor of laying sidewalks, they ore opposed to have a grade staked out. A. W. Rabl. local contractor, presented to the council the necessity of laying a grade on that street. As a result, the council authorised the engineer te establish a grade on the west side of Pearl atreet from Park avenue to the end of the street. . T. B. Oawn, of North Main atreet, waa preaent at the meeting and com' plained to the* council that a mistake had been made in the erecting of the wall In front of his property. Contractor Jason was preaent and explained why the wall waa not satisfactory to Mr. Oawn. The council authorised Mr. Jason to proceed with ■ the work and to come to some agreement with Mr. Oawn concerning the wall. As a great deal of trouble has been reported concerning the sewer system, Mayor Smythe decided that he would make a thorough Inspection of the sewers aa soon as the paving is started on Milan avenue. Secretary of State Harvey C. Smith haa announced the distribution of $1, 259,107 79, to various counties throughout the state tor road improvement, all of which came from the state automobile department. In- the distribution, Lorain county receives 112,139.90 This amount Is re-distributed by the county auditor among the various municipalities of the county.

Jacob Baus, manager of the Water Works company, was present and reported tbat private connections were now being put In and that tbey will undoubtedly be finished by the latter part of this week. It will be necessary, however, to make some changes on the water main before the paving is put in but it is not certi^^s MERCHANTS' BASEBALL TEAM TO GIVE AWAY CAMERA By C. J. WBST, State Agriculture Statistician. From 36 to 60 per cent of the apples i yet, whether or not tbe changes will were Injured by frosts and freeses during April. The later blooming varieties and late buds will In part make up for this damage so that from present indications a one-halt to three- quarters crop of apples is possible, according to reports received by C. J. West. Agricultural Statistician, State- Federal Crop Reporting Service. About half the peaches and cherries are killed. The damage to cherries and plums averages around 46 per cent. These estimates may be changed when further information Is received on the damage from the frosts of the 28th and 29th. The fruit along the Lake Shore and on the Islands Is not serloulsy Injured.
