NJ H. Beckwith reports freaa the
Delaware station that winter oats have
given excellent satisfaction i'll the south
ern counties OF the state, and there has
been quite demand for the seed. The
ordinary oats have not been a profitable
crop to grow in this section for q num-
Der of years, but the winter oats APP
pear to be specially adapted to this soil
and climate The yield the past season
averaged about 40 bushels OF very
plump and heavy oats per acre, with a
heavy growth Of clean, bright straw.
These oats thrive here under the same
conditions as does winter wheat. The
preparation Of the land, the quantity
of seed used and the time of seeding
are the same AS for wheat.

Careful experiments have been made
to ascertain how much obstruction a
gentle grade even is to the movement OF
a loaded wagon. One estimate is that a
rise of / foot in A will cut off one-fourth
of the load. A rise of 1 foot in "a cuts
down the load one-half. A rise of ! foot
in 10 is such an obstruction that only
one-fourth as much can be drawn as if
the road were level.

popping TIE srIvER QUESTION.

ga Little Courage IN the Part OF Harrison,
Mckinley and Reed Would be Advan-
tageons Now"
New York Evening Post
RepublcanPres candidates are
fighting very shy of the silver question,
either resting on "their well-kDown
views" which are too vague to be recog-
nized, or assuring all inquisitive persons
that "in its own good time the Republic
can party will solve this problem US 1t has
solved all others, wisely and we'll"
There are unmistakabIe evidences that
this is about the poorest policy which
a Presidential candidate could follow
at this time. The people of the country
are not indifferent to this question. On
the contrary, they are so much in
earnest about it that they are locking
eagerly to-day for men who know where
they stand on it. They have no use for
dodgers or trimmers now, for they are
rapidly realizing that the returning pros.
perity of the country will be checked
aud turned backward unless the free
silver folly can be repudiated. The
great meeting in Philadelphia last even
ing made necessary by the fres-silyer
attitude of Senator Cameron, is evidence
of the existence of this popular feeling
in that State, The speeches were in the
right spirit, of aggressive hostility to free
silver coinage, and the meeting is likely
| to be the beginning of an antl-Oameron
campaign which will resultin Cameron'f
defeat and the election OF some one IL
his stead who will really represent the
intelligence and greatindustrial interests
of the State. An equally signiticant
event is reported from Colorado. The
League of Republican Clubs of that State
voted down yesterday resolution de
claring it to be the Leagues purpose
neither to cooperate nor vote in 1891
with any party which does not unequivo
cally declare in its platform for thu
free and unlimited coinage of silver a
16 to /. Even in Colorado the folly o
free silver is thus formally rejected b.
Republicans. This news ought to con
vince Harrison, Mckinley, Reed AM
other candidates that little display o
courage on their part might not be dis
advantageous now.

WASHINGTON, May 30.-Consul Bowen at
Barcelona, Spain, has made report to the
state Department upon the manufacture
of woven goods and says that the industry
in the Province of Barcelona has become
very important. Large exports are made
of the goods produced, they having doubled
in six years, amounting in 1894 to 9o5,62S
kilos, the greater. part Of which went TO
cheaper goods have the better sale. The
more expensive goods are sold in Spain as
the heavy protective tariff prevents foreign
goods from competing with them. The
centre of the weaving industry is Mattaro
which produces every week 10000 dozens
of manufactured articles.

hundred is Bayside, q productive and
valuable farm of 215 acres situated at
the head of Rehoboth bay now in the
possession of Col. Robert Arnell of
Lewes. Mr.. Arnell is a grandson of
William Burton member OF the in
fuential and numerous family OF that
name who were among the early Eng
lish settlers of this part of Sussex
county. Mr.. Burton married wife of
the Stevens family another of the early

The mansion house was built by the

knoll about 10 feet above the surround
ing land and from its porches can be
seen that beautiful sheet of water,

miles south.
In 1868 Mr.. Lemuel P. Burton, a son
of Sheriff William Burton, and part
owner of the property by inheritance,
bought out the other heirs and at con-
siderable expense repaired the house,
beautified and renovated the adjoining
grounds and improved the land which
had very much run down. During the
occupancy Of L. P. Burton connections

| phia spent much of the summers in the
fifties with the genial and hospitable
Burton family. Mr.. Smith and family
| of the then well-known Philadelphia

Smith was visitor forseveral summers.
Mr.. j. Edward Addicks, late candidate
for United States Senator, spent the sum
mer of 1856 at this favorite retreat. Mr..
| Addicks is a son of the senior member
of the old firm and about is years old
at the time. l., p. Burton sold the prop
erty TO Thomas McIlvaine Of Kent
county about 25 years ago. He died
few years later when it reverted back tc
Mr. Burton. The latter died without
children ana at his decease it was left
by will to George NJ. Hickman, hii
wife's grand nephew, son of william
NJ. Hickman, a former resident O
Lewes. Col Arnell purchased thu
property of Mr.. Hickman ana mas

portant, the adjoining waters abound
ing in fish of many varieties and al
abundance of soft crabs. No charge o
share is required, every one fishing o
grabbing without hindrance. A con
venient landing for boats is within
few yards of the mansion, which

The farm is now in charge of John c
Joseph, an energetic and reliable farmer
