But he was « wily cop, with much experience, and he went to the signal box at the Bridge approach and sent a signal to close the ronaway gates on the Bridge.

When a little bit of a court clerk calls A grew big lawyer a Mar and the big lawyer invites the Ifttle clerk to come down off the bench and see what he’ get for casting aspersions on a big law- yer's veracity, it would occur to most minds that the wisest thing for the little clerk to do would be to decline the invitation. But James J. Boyte, clerk of the Sev- enth District Muntotpal Court, Pennsyi- vania avenue and Fulton street, Brook- lyn, accepted the challenge of Attorney Benjamin B. Ridman of No. 9 Gates nd walked right up againat Mr Ridman's fist, Mr. Kidman just slapped Boyle once, but there were more than two hundred pounds back of that slap, and Clerk Boyle lay flat on the floor and remained there. The court room throng (no judge present) called upon Boyle to get up and resent the slap. He refused and hugged the floor till a policeman came in and arrested the big lawyer.

Projected City Subways Will Cover Territory Suited Only for Flat Builders, Railroads entering New York are developing a wide campaign for draw- \ing city dwellers to outlying farms, Acreage over 100 miles from Man- 1s being peopled with farmers of the small kind. Places of one to five acres are covering territory which had been only partly productive. As a result, farm buying has become the prominent feature in the spring rush of home expansion. Flat dwellers are looking for farms in all directions. And the movement ts embracing all | classes of families, for those in affluent circumstances are seeking pretentious Acreage available for suoh uses {s rising in value on account of increasing demands. A large volume of private capital is flowing into the improvement of the new farms and rural estates. Opening Outer Zones, All of the large railroads have organ- \1zed departments for promoting the suburban movement. They are work- ing Independently of the rapid transit subway situation in the Greater City because they are prepared to furnish lieansportation for expansion into sec- tions beyond the zone of any subway system which the city has projected The new movement is based on the steadily spreading tendency of small home owners rather than upon condi- tions In the more congested population centres. ‘The new rapid transit subways will be adapted for serving almost ex- clusively @ flat-house territory, and flat builders are expected to extend their operations over practically all of the country which will be opened by the new lines, but the railroads, on the contrary, are opening outer zones which are to become the new outlying suburbs of the metropolis. Prove Richness of Land. ‘The most unattractive parcel of land on Long Island can be converted into rioh, fertile soil, capable of producing every species of vegetable, frult, for- age and flowering plant common to the temperate zone,” anid Raiph Peters, President of the Long Island Rattroad, yesterday, ‘To prove this, an elgh- teen-acre plot of waste land at Wading River on the North Shore was pur- chased by the railroad company and given over to H. B, Fullerton, an agri- cultural expert, for cultivation. In aix- ty-four working days, the property at Wading River—more than seventy miles from the metropolis—was cleared of etumps, boulders and trees. A year lat the farm produced 3% varieties of plant growth. “Delighted with the results of this ex- periment, the Long Island Railroad de- clied to extend its agricultural work. Another tract of sorub-oak | waste as secured at Medford, on the South Shore, at which place Mr lerton met with equal success, ““After these demonstrations real es tate s are exploiting the ad- vantages of the small farm, One en- rprising firm recently acquired 40 acres near Bay Shore, ‘The land was sleared, divided into areas of one, two and three acres and over acre plots have been disposed of to prospective farmers, A unique feature in connection with this particular de- velopment ix a farm school conducted on the property, in which methods of sclentific farming are taught.” Nearness to Markeis Aids. “Agriculture has contributed largely REAL ESTATE FOR SALE-— NEW JERSEY. 10% DISC COUNT FOR CASH MAN'S PRICE.

Community farming {# being adopted by the large development companies in all parts of the outlying zone, They maintain organizationa through which the amal!l farmers may co-operate and thus reduce costs and individual labor. In New Jersey the Brie ragiroad is leading in {ts exploitation of farm and country estates. It has also an im- mense territory of small suburban home Tt has increased its number of over 45,000, kawanna and the Central Rail- road of New Jersey are beginning a lively competition to place themaeives upon even terms with the Erie. Their expanse of country, however, 1s only a emall fraction of that covered by the Erle nes. The New York Central Railroad re- ported yesterday that the farm move- ment along its lines had assumed rec- ord-breaking proportions. Within the metropolitan commuting sone, how- ever, the land is becoming too costly for ordinary farms. It {s passing to expensive country places, But there is a large farm area still avatlable along the outer zone of the forty-mile radius covered by the new electric su- burban transit system. Northward Move Grows. The New Haven Railroad s vonduot- ing its farm and country bureau in conjunction with the Boston & Maine Railroad and other New England lines in Boston, Its new Westchester & B ton suburban line, however, 1s promot- ing the territory between Manhattan and New Rochelle. The road ts being completed fast along that stretch, Much of it ts promised for operation around the first of the year. Builders close to its tracks are conducting a lively cam- paign.
