when the shark was finally made to
beat a hasty retreat the water which

Stan Correspondence Evening Journal.

Stan Correspondence Evening Journal.
Dover, July 24--Farmers OF Della
ware now have what they have been
wanting and hoping fora large peach
crop But they are sorry. The crop is
too large and consequently win not
pay. Peaches shipped from here and
Milford last week netted only about
seven cents a basket Many farmers
throughout the state will not pick their
peaches unless they can be sold to a
nearby cannery.
One farmer, Wilbur Hammond. en-
phatically stated that he would not pick
a basket from his orchard Of several
thousand trees except for his personal
use. Buyers who were buyers, are not
now buying. They say it does not pay
and refuse to invest their money where
they feel sure it will be a total loss
John Allen, a buyer from Milford. re-
.ceived eight two-cent stamps in return
for fifty baskets Of peaches shipped tC

TOR WANT OF HEAVY RAIN

Stan Correspondence Evening Journal.
Dover, July 24.-lf there As not a
heavy rain In this vicinity and the low
er part of the state in the near future.
the crops will not be worth harvesting.
Everything is drying up for the want
Of rain. Corn is almost ruined and the
tomato crop bids fair to be a failure
unless the gift from nature makes ite
appearance in a short time. Last Thurs
day night "a slight shower passed over
the lower part of the state but it was
of so little consequence that the bene-
fit from it was hardly felt For tho
past three nights heavy clouds have
appeared, but they have passed ON leav-
Ing no rain in their path.
