The additions which were made
10 the schools during the summer
months provided for many new

The Delaware peach for 1898 has done
honor and credit to the orchard which

marvellous for magnitude II not for
profit. With the rapid increase In popu.

There is no year like good peach year
in Delaware
The shipments are falling of all along
the line Of the Delaware railroad and
few are coming in by boat. What are
reaching these markets now come from
the vicinity Of Iron Hill and Middletown
and are brought in wagons by the grow
ers or their help, and are OF
the Crawford variety. The growers have
found out that there is a demand
In Wilmington for peaches and that
the profit is much larger If they bring
them themselves as the high freight
rate is saved and the fruit does not

Then there is not so much demand now
in neighboring states as in the begin
