He Used to Be Humble, but Now He
Is IA Naughty Vampire.

OF late, be it noted, the tailor has be-
come quite an unreasonable and gratui-
tOuS drain on all mems purses.
Formerly you We're his patron. He
was very civil and gave you uninter-
mittent opportunities for seeing the top
of his head and the back of his neck.
He rubbed his hands and crawled be-
fore you for 3 guineas a suit. If you
paid any time before the death of the
senior partner in his business he
bowed you to your equipage and said
in his heart that you were a great gen
tleman
Today he is vampire. he sucks your
blood, he walks erect, he chooses cloth
for you, you must have what he tells
you to have, his terms are cash on de,
livery, his credit will last you six
months, and as often as not he is a
member of your friends club.
He is the person who makes you OF
mars you. With his bit of soapstone
he can turn you out just so or not just
so. Be civil to him. l adjure you You
are only a poor, sOppy, brainless, driv-
cling rascal of a man. If you be not

The State Board of Agriculture held
an interesting meeting at the boards
headquarters, the office of Professor
Wesley Webb in the Dover Coart
House. The systematic work of popu-
lating the sections of Delaware away

fine advantages for the establishment
of prosperous fruit and vegetable
farms, was reviewed and various i'm
provements were suggested and adopt

ware farming, her beautiful peach,
plum and pear orchards, together with
photos of some of the finest farms, like
that of Colonel James J. Ross of Sea
ford, is being prepared for publication.
Noteworthy reports were received on
the fruit outlook. Secretary A. W.
Slaymaker, the Kent county member,
reported that apples were developing
splendidly and are already being har.
vested and shipped to good advan-
tage. Commissioner Messick and
Professor Webb told of early apples
selling at Bridgeville station this week
for So cents per fve-eighths basket,
probably the highest price ever rea-
iized for apples in promiscuous ship
ment in this State. Commissioner
Shallcross, himself a large fruit
grower, gave most encouraging facts
concerning the peach and pear crop of
New Castle county. Peaches will
soon be ready now and the trees are
full and remarkably healthy. His
only regret was that there was not
anything like so many planted in New
Castle county as in the lower sections.
