14. Fruit growers of New Jersey who for years carried on a valiant battle to put their State in the rank as a fruit-producing section, passed resolutions at the convention of the State Horticultural Society here yesterday, asking that the Legislature aid the work by appropriating on the basis of one cent annually for every acre in the commonwealth. As the Garden State has an area of about 5,000,000 acres, such an appropriation would approximate $50,000. The horticulturists have long desired a greater appropriation for horticultural work in the tate. They now get about $1,000 a year.

Leading growers say the Garden State has a reputation of miserly treatment of its great fruit interests. Massachusetts, California and other States which have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to aid and develop industries of these commonwealths were cited as instances in the other extreme. Ninety-two varieties of apples, five specimens to a plate, the property of thirty growers, were judged by a committee of experts. The judges declared that the fruit compared favorably with the best exhibits of the kind fro many State in the Union. The' premium in each case was $1 for first prize and 50 cents for second.

The prize winners were led by Lemuel Black, of Hightstown, who carried off 36 premiums, some of which were for pears. John H. Barclay, of Cranbury, was the next heaviest winner, he being awarded premiums on 21 plates of fruit. In the bor and barrel department the judges awarded the silver loving cup given by manufacturers of scalecide, to John H. Barclay, of Cranbury, for the best three bushel boxes.

A prize of $16, offered by a newspaper for the best three boxes, was also awarded Mr. Barclay, as was a prize of spraying material, valued at $11.50, offered by a chemical company, for the best pack of apples. A paper on "The Plum Curculio," prepared by Dr. John B. Smith, State entomologist, was read by Prof.

M. A. Blake, State horticulturist, Dr. Smith being prevented from attending the sessions by illness. CAKE SALE A SUCCESS The home- cake and candy sale in the First Reformed Chapel Wednesday, under the auspices of the Ladies' Aid Society, was a big success.
