The Board OF Trustees Of the Pool
for Sussex County are asking for a sum
Of 5 per cent-a slight increase-for the
purpose Of making permanent improve
ments. The board is also of the opinion
that the "Outside allowance" system is
being abused by the people who are
capable Of helping themselves, or who
have relatives able to assist them. An
effort to eliminate all such cases is be.
ing made, and the present trustees
hope to be able to make needed repairs
to the buildings on the property,
which are badly needed for this reason
the small increase should be given to
them by the Levy Court.

sssss1 Woman successful Trapper.

Few people realize the great value Of
3 marsh infested with the muskrat,
and the possibility for gain from intel
Iigent trapping. Probably the fact
that will be best impressed by relating
an instance that occurred the past week
In Cave Neck about Is miles from Mil.
ford, resides Mrs James Jones, a lady
Of middle age who is accustomed to
active farm life along the bay shore,
and who is a hustling manager for her
family generally. During the past
winter Mrs. Jones engaged in trapping
on the marsh belonging to her home
farm, and she has caught, skinned aud
cured 208 muskrats, without aid from
any person. She sold the pelts, or fur,
last week to William Ramsey, a fur
dealer in Milford, who paid her IS cents
for the light skins and as cents for the
dark ones. while for few he allowed
50cents. Mrs Jones has realized nearly
IS much money from her trapping
enterprise as some tenant farmers who
have passed the winter in idleness.
The muskrat marshes OF Delaware are
fully as profitable as the high lands
were before the State aided in building
the railroads through the eastern part
Of Sussex county fifty years ago, and
Mrs. Jones has demonstrated what a
woman can 90 in a modest way in
reaping harvest from the advantages
within her reach. Protect the musk
rat, aud may his tribe never grow less
in Delaware.
