SMALL FARMs.-The best conditions, both So
cialy and politically. prevail in those agricultur
al communities where the farms are compara-
lively small and where there are but few renters
or sharewOrkers. This is cOnclusvely proven
by a comparison of the Agricultural conditions
OF England and the countries Of Northwestern n
Europe. The English farmers and farm labor
eIs, although living under the ablest and wisest
government east of the Atlantic, are not nearly
as fourishlng, capable and contented as their
brethren in Belgium, France and Germany are
and the main reason is that England has large
farms and few farm-owners, while the other
countries have small farms and consequently
many owners.
The man who establishes two "home" farms
on the peninsula In place of one is a public ben
eiactor; and the real estate agents who are
bringing here the scores of practical farmers
now looking over the peninsula TOR their future
homes deserve the thanks of every friend OF the
community. Smaller farms and more farmers
mean better cultivation OF the land that we have.
and also the gradual recovery of the hundreds
of thousands of unimproved acres that still dis.
figure the State.-Morning Ne,es.

LOWER DELAWARE will never come up to her
full measure of honor or Of Agricultural capaci.
ty. until the wastetdl practice Of leaving fields
idle every alternate year is abandoned, and a
system of rotation of crops is adopted that will
keep the land proitably occupied. 1t is like
children playing with hlOcks-building them up
and knocking them over, to fight the weeds one
year, and the next year to encourage them to
grow. It is sickening TO ride around the country
at this season of the year and note the untold
millions of weed seeds that are ripening their
dread harvest. Just North of Milford, short
distance, is fine field which this year produced
an excellent crop OF wheat. At occasional dis
tances are long rows from which the corn was
not removed before the sowing of the wheat
These rows are one solid mass Of weeds bearing
seeds enough to cover the whole Eeld for anOth.
er year.
This is only given as a striking instance of the
two kinds OF crops one field can be made to pro-
duce. The field looks as il the ''enemy" had
gone in the night and sown "tares" and that
he had sown them in rows.
strangers first impression when looking at
vast waste is, that the farmers who practice
exceedingly thriitIess and that they hold
much land.
In some states there is levied fine of several
dollars for allowing weeds to perfect seed by
the roadside. What the fine would be for al. |
lowing great fields Of daisies, wild carrots, rag
weeds, etc., to run to seed, can hardly be imag- |
ined, as in those thrifty localities, such system
is unknown. Ifh is not desirable to rotate corn
with wheat and clover, there are plenty Of pay
ing crops, such as late potatoes, tomatoes, etc.,
that can be planted to advantage on the alter
nate year. If no one allowed weeds to run to
seed they would certainly not be able to "hold
their ground" (No pun iutended.) The great
trouble about this business is, that one person
often forced to suffer severely from the bad
management OF his neighbor. A large field Of

ONE of the largest hotels at Atlantic City has
ordered from Philadelphia florist 200 castor oil
plants, to be sent as soon as possible. The for.
ist claims that the re death on flies and mOsqui-
toes and that the hotel proprietor is going to use
these plants 10 keep his hotel free from these
pests. The wise florist then gets the reporter
Of the Philadelphia Record to start the follow
ing paragraph on its rounds of the press, which
undou btedly will fiId many believers until they
have tired it:
The discovery that castor-oil plants possess the
faculty Of killing and keeping away flies, mos
quitoes and other insects was recently made by
a French scientist named Rafford, who noticed
that certain rooms in his house, in which castor
oil plants were growing, were entirely free from
these disagreeable insects, although other apart
ments were infested with them. He found lying
near the plants great quantities of dead fiieS,a
a large number of dead bodies were banging to
the under surface of the leaves, which caused
him to investigate the matter, and the discovery
was made that the plants gave out an essential
oil or some toxic principle which possessed very
powerful insecticide qualities.
