have closed a contract for three or four
hundred acres of land in the Mohawk
Valley, New York, which is expected
TO produce some seven thousand tons of
beets and to be delivered here lin Della
ware for four dollars per ton, two dol
lars cheaper than the price demanded by
our home Delaware farmers, though
living in close proximity to the works.
This is not a cTeditable 5nowing for our
Delaware farmers. We would have
naturally thought that in the certain
failure of the peach crop, they would
rave beeIYsIad to have availed them

CompSny. If the farmers Of the Mo-
hawk Valley can make money at four
dollars ton after shipping them some
three hundred miles the farmers of
Delaware should make much more at a
sliding scale Of prices from four collars
up to seven dollars. and with but a
short shipping distance.

A DISPUTED heNoR.-Two stimuli
taneous dispatches have been received
by Prof. Swift, of the Warner Obser'
vatory at Rochester, n. Y, oy winch
it appears that another great comet has
been discovered. Prof. Sharpless OF
Haverford College, Pennsylvania states
that l.. T. Edwards saw it with the
naked eye on the morning Of June
23d. and Mr.. Edgar L.. Larkin, OF New
Windsor, ILL.,, also reports seeing 1t and
that it is vast. 1t seems probable that
the tail is not less than lS' in length
while the head is as bright as Jupiter.
The new comet Is located in the con-
stellation OF Auriga about 8 degrees
from Capella, and II Is not improbable
that il may be the much expected comet
of 1912 whil h should appear not Tar
from that locality. As the two dit
patches were received in Rochester
simultaneously, there is some question
as to whether the honor OF discovery.
and the Warner prize Of e20e, belong to
Mr. Edwards or Mr., Larkin.
