Delaware Farmers Kept Busy Fighting
Them

While the present season has beer
a fairly prosperous one for Delaware
farmers and truckers, yet the crops
have not been raised without ceaseless
vigilance and unremittlng war ON The
insect tribe
All crops are subject to these insects
and the lighting of insect pests is now
the most important part of the truck
er's labors.
The San Jose scale, a pest which
comes here from Asia, is the peach
growers foe, and during the past three
years ii has damaged trees of
one grower to the extent of $4,000.
The pea louise also Is doing consider
able damage. and its ravenous appetite
caused growers of peas a loss OF nearly
$4,000 in 1899
A striking feature Is that most of the
havoc Is wrought by insects OF i'm
ported species and not by those which
are native.

WASHINGTON HEIGHTS NOT The SPOT
Cannon Should be Put at Market Street

Amos c. Brinton, the Court House
librarian, says that putting the pro-
posed cannon on Washington Heights
TO mark the spot where Washington
crossed the Brandywine would be libel
ing history.
Mr.. Brinton has records TO show that
Washington did not cross the stream
at that point, the ford there having
been done away with in 1877. The
SPOT where he did cross is at the south
end OF Market street bridge, asd Mr.
Brinbon contends that II the cannon
are put anywhere. they should be put
there.
