of course, was the center of attraction.
She has a charming personality, and
her work may be characterized as
strong and noteworthy. Her char

with men. mules. drills. harrows,
ploughs and other implements, look
ing like a country fair parade.
1t was a modern pea-planting. Sue
cess in growing is dependent upon
the planters catching the first warm

and experienced labor. The force Of
men and machinery was, therefore, at
work ploughing up the fields after their
winter freeze, cutting. rolling. harrow
ing, fertilizing and planting tho peas
in great abundance. Several photo

to be used in implements catalogs. The

Special TO THE EVENING JOURNAL
DOVER, Del. March PA contest
has begun between the farmers and
fruitgrowers for the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company to shelve cars again
this year. although the company has
not done so for some time The COM
pany, in turn, has positively refused.
Then the growers, IN order to be able
TO put two peach baskets in a special
crate made to hold them. desire a de-
crease in freight rates proportionate to
the cost Of shelving the cars by the
railroad company.
The committee on transportation be-
gan its interviews with the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad Company at Broad
street station to-day and win announce
what results We're accomplished. Mean
time, both growers and packers have
become uneasy over the outlook. The
peach basket win either have to be
done away with, although it is claimed
that Delaware peaches will not sell well
in Georgia carriers, or the farmers
must provide the special crate to hold
two upright baskets.
