Peninsula vegetable aud Fruit OutIooL

ONAHCoCK. Va March 23.-The farm
ers and truckers. not only here, but
throughout the Eastern Shore Of Vir.
ginia, are reported to be backward with
their spring work This is due to the
bad roads over which fertilizers had to
be hauled and the much wet weather.
However the preparatory work, such as
planting peas and Irish potatoes and bed
ding sweets are at present about finished.
Much time will be required yet TO prepare
the ground for the sweet potato crop,
as it has to be plowed several times, and
the compost heaps that were prepared
last fall thoroughly mixed with the soil
to insure successful returns. The pres
ent indications for successful crops are
very encouraging.
IL Is thought that the strawberry and
peach crops on the peninsula will be very
good, and already the drummers are
looking up the interests Of their firms in
the care of the former. The straw berry
interest in this county seems TO be
rapidly increasing, judging from the
amount Of plants reported to have been
set out during the past twelve months.

NEW CASTLE, March 23-Even the
Delaware river may now be used for the
purposes of manufacturing and electric
lighting power. Not by the Wilmington
New Castle Electric Company. however,
as this cherished enterprise will have to
lay low for two years TO come. The
waters of the Delaware are wanted by
the Trenton, n j., Board of Trade The
purpose is 10 erect dam of several feet
in height across the Delaware Just north
OF the rapids near Trenton, which would
furnish the city 90, 900 horse power for
electric lighting and other purposes.
This is strongly objected TO in this
neighborhood for the reason that the
damming Of the Delaware may contami-
nate or affect the purity of the water
supply which cities along the stream in
the future may rely upon. Il is claimed
that the plan proposed would interfere
with the lumber rafting and the shad
fishing in the Delaware. the answer to
these objections being that the timber
along the headwaters is nearly all cut
away and the United States ish com.
mission has adopted a system Of fishways
which would be provided for In case Of
the granting of the riparian rights
asked for.
