Interestingly of the apple crop on the A, l..
Blaisdel farm in that town. The apple crop
this year is lighter than usual according to re-
ports but Mr.. Blaisdells orchard will yield
heavily. The Blasdell farm comprises 2So acres,
and he has an orchard of $500 trees, all young
ones. The trees are loaded to the tips of the
branches with fine quality winter apples and
Mr.. Blaisdell has an offer now of 81 barrel
for the apples on the trees. He expects to
get barrel from nearly every tree in the
orchard and the income from that farm will be
worth while this year.-Bangor Commercial.

We are in favor of building good
roads in Delaware, but we are IN
alte1abIy opposed to the appro-
priations carried by the good road
laws recently passed by the House,
which give to each Of the counties
forty thousand dollars each year,
from the State Treasury, making a
total expenditure every year Of one
hundred and twenty thousand dol
lars from the treasury. The total
sum is not the object of our objec-
ton, but to the fact that so large a
sum of money. with sixty thousand
dollars additional each year to be
raised by direct taxation. is to be
placed in the hands Of the present
road supervisors for expenditure
on good roads. We object first on
the ground that there is no organ
lied system for building the roads,
or for either drainage or method of
construction. Secondly, for the
season that the men in whose
hands this large sum of money will
be placed, are not men appointed
for their capability to build, or for
their knowledge Of building roads,
and again we object because there
is no responsible head for the entire
road work. We hope that the
Senate will make provision for the
difhciencies of the bills, or if it
should fail, that Governor Penne-
will will veto the scheme. Far
better wait two years before begin
ming the work of building perma-
nent roads in Delaware, than to
have the money wasted in incom-
petent and ignorant experiments in
road building. Better bond the
state and counties to provide the
means, and then do as Caroline
County, in Maryland has done,
place the entire work in the hands
of a competent builder Of roads
who will be compelled to carry out
a practical plan and the people get
a fair show for the money spent. |
We want no more money wasted
on the public roads, but we do
want practical roads built after an
intelligent method of road con-
