Milford Grange.

The Grange enjoyed a talk on the
"Success and Failures" Of the past year,
at its last meeting. 1t certainly was
good TO hear Of the successful iugather-
ing, resulting from the labors OF the
year. Mr. Peet felt very well satisfied
with the result Of his labOrs, consider
ing the short time he had had in which
to study the conditions OF the soil etc.
here. Mr. Hopkins said his strawberry
crop was satisfactory, also his corn,
and that the "little Brown LeghOrn"
was still in the lead. Mr.. Lemex spoke
Of successful crop Of peas, and an ex-
ceptiOnal yield in tomatoes; in fact,
this was the most satisfactory year since
their location here. Mr.. Barker spoke
OF the cause OF so many failures, poor
seed. II the farmers would pay more
money and get the best seed, all cOndi-
tiOns being favorable, the returns
would be q success. The topic for Sat
uIday, october 23rd, will be the 'Selec-
tion and Keeping Of Corn for Seed, "
Several recipes will be given for the
cooking OF corn meal in various ways,
therefore a large attendance is expect
ed, ~ the women will enjoy learning
these ways, as we'll as the men will
enjoy eating the samples thereof.

Teachers Institute.

The 35th Annual Teachers Institute
for Sussex County will convene in Mil
ford, Delaware, at ATmory Hall. on
November 22nd, 28rd aud 24th. This
promises to be one OF the most interest.
ing that was ever held in Sussex County.
The superintendent has not considered
expense in arranging for this Institute,
but after considerable effort, he has sc
cured the best talent available. These
annual meetings have always been the
great event Of the year for the town in
which they are held. The 25O white
teachers Of our county. together with
their friends and others interested in
education, will go far toward making
this the banner year in our history.
This is al occasion when every one de-
sirous Of advancing the educational in.
terests Of our State should do all in their
power to awaken intelligent public sen.
timent toward our schools by giving
this Institute not only their sympa.
thetie support, but also II possible their
presence. II is q source OF much salts
faction to the writer that our grand old
county has made rapid strides, eduoa.

because OF the progressivenesss OF her

As To School Taxes.
of the Chronicle

Editor of the Chronicle
For the information Of the taxpayers
wish to correct an article which appear.
ed in your paper last week, relative to
the collection of scheOl taxes. The ar
ticle stated that the Board is 'hounding"
the collector, Mr.. Joseph, 70 clear up the
taxes on the 1909 duplicate.
In the first place, Mr.. Joseph does not
have the 1909 duplicate, that having
been placed in the hands of the county
collectors. But Mr. Joseph does have
the 1908 duplicate that having been plac.
ed in bis hands in July 1905 1t is the
money on this duplicate that the Board
requires.
The board rather objects to the word
"hounding", but feels that it would be
derelict in its duty did it not require the
payment of taxes within year and
half from the time they were levied.
might refer to a recent edstorisl Of yours
in which you made it clear that the
Board is paying interest on its indebted
ness, when part Of it might be saved |
were taxes collected promptly and turn
ed over. If the board is to be criticised |
it should be for being too lenient with |
collectors in the past. But since the
question has been raised, perhaps it is
proper to say that in the interest Of the
schools and in justice to those persons
who pay their taxes promptly, the Board
has resolved that it will no longer be
trihed with. GEO. b. HyNsoN.
In answer to the above article, it can
be said that the bounding for 1903
School taxes for l9O9-is only as his pre-.
vious newspaper experience should sug.
gest to him a typographical error, as the
heading Of said article is marked plainly
1903. As the tax having been levied !
years, it might have been but it had only
been in the hands OF Collector Joseph for
one year and one month. Other things
might be said Of which the members of
the board has personal knowledge.
