HOT WEATHER ADVICE

In July and August, when the ther-
mometer is in the nineties, it is folly to be
in hurry unless it is absolutely neces-
sary. Physical exercise is a fine thing,
but little of it will go long way in
the dog days. Don't eat a winter diet
in midsummer. If you incline to pork,
cabbage and heavy pastries, forego your
appetite and settle down to light meals
and cooling beverages. Delightful drinks
can be made at small cost in any house
hold in which there are ice, sugar.
lemons, oranges or pineapple. As for
that, there is nothing that will keep the
body cool better than cold, but not ice
cold water. Meats of all kinds are heat
ing and should not be eaten more than
once day, and sparingly at that. When
the mercury sizzles leave alcohol to those
who are reckless of health and life. Keep
in the shade as much as possible and Won
will never have sunstroke. Wear light
clothing, and particularly loose collars
and shoes. Do your pointed work of
course, but in sensible, prudent way;
and if you observe the foregoing precau-
tions you will in all probability pass a
summer SO agreeably that you will look
back upon it with pleasure.

COUNTY ROAD WORK

There is little possibility that much
work will be done upon the hundred
roads Of New Castle County before tile
latter part of August or early in Septem-
Der. There are three very good reasons
why the work will be postponed until
that time. The first reason is that it is
necessary to wait until sufficient money
has been collected in taxes to carry on
the work; secondly, there is scarcity Of
labor on account of the harvest season
and men cannot be secured, and third,
the ground is so hard now from the con-
tinued dry and hot weather that it is
impractical to work upon them at this
time. In the early fall the rains come
and soften the earth, and repairs are
more serviceable and much easier accom-
plished.
There is difference between the hum
dred roads and the county roads. OF the
latter the bond issue will be used for
rebuilding, but not for repairs upon the
hundred roads. It is expected to have
the new system of roads working by
another year similar to-the railroads. A
supervisor is placed over district and is
personally responsible for certain stretch
az road. He will be given an oppor.
tunity to demonstrate just what he can
accomplish Morning News.

GOOD FISHING AND GRABBING

Fishing and grabbing make up pleas
ant time for our town folks and summer
visitors these days. Trout fishing down
the Bay is probably the most exhilarating
sport, for fish are plentiful. Crabs for
several years have been scarce in this Vi
cinity but some good catches are being
made and the sport promises to be better
than ordinary. Perch and catfish are
plentiful in the neighborhood Of Firms
ietty, near New Castle. The lower part
of the river is full Of trout just now. and
Bowers Beach and Kits Hammock are
fast filling up with fishermen. These are
fayorite resorts for Delawareans. Salt
water fish of all kind are plentiful both At
Rehoboth and Lewes. Crabs are begin
ming to arrive in large numbers now and
are abundant at Cofeld's, Penn's Grove
and the railroad pier at the north Of the
Christiana.
