SioO CORN PRIZE

The Delaware Horticultural Society Of
fsred sometime ago prize of $4,000 foI
the best yield Of corn from single acre
in this State. For some reason, maybe be-
cause Of the cost and trouble the effort
would have required, only thres farmers
are Contesting for this prize. One Of
them has been heard from. Mr.. Alonzo
WhittoCk, who farms che Hohecker place
near Odessa, has obtained yield Of l0O3
Bushels Of yellow corn from off 9 single
acre.
Il seems TO our alfalfa editor che part Of
wisdom for more of our farmers to enter
the race for these prizes, because in the
first place, one csieps sample of the
double ciphered ''long green" il not an
unhandy thing 90 tuck away in any
farmers wallet even If in these days IL is
swelling like 8 quart of dried spplss in
water, and then in the second place, the
farmer often gets useful hints how to
raise big crops, from the experiment itsslf,
and this, whether be win or lose, may be
worth more to him than the amount OF
prizs offered. There 10 something in these
new "book farming" tricks when pro-
fessor chap preaching Indian corn from
the tail end OF q railroad car to the farm.
ers assembled from far and near, can fin.
ally succeed In getting them to double
the yield per acre throughout q whole
state as was done in lows.

LOCAL OPTION MEETING
r. 6. Houston and A. M. DAILY
Make StrOna Addresses

On Sunday afternoon at 80, highly
successful anti-aaIoon temperance meet
ing was held in the Opera House and was
largely attended especially by vOters-
many Of the leading citizens Of the town
being present.
The exercises opened with that rousing
song "Onward Christian Soldiers" and
prayer BY Rev. F. H. Moore. Then
the chairman. Mr.. N. B. Burris, presented
Mr.. Robert g. Houston Of Georgetown as
the first speaker.
He made plain and very effective pres.
entation Of she many advantages, economic
and otherwise, that had come to George.
town and Sussex county, since local option
had driven the saloons out. His com.
parison Of the amounts of the merchants
license fees before and after local option,
was very convincing proof Of the benefits
in dollars and cents that flow from local
option. Merchant after merchant was
cited whose business had increased as
never before and instances Of individuals
formerly useless topers, who had become
useful, sober workers.
After more song, Mr.. Burris in very
witty and happy speech introduced Mr..
A. NJ. Daily Of Dover who made second
strong argument for temperance by show
ing the marked business and moral i'm
provement that had followed local option
in Dover. Increased business receipts
everywhere; four new and large grocery
stores and one new bank with $l0O, ,OOO.0O
deposits already and she other banks also
doing more business; great decrease in ar'
rests for crime; greater security on the
streets OF Dover for ladies, and the pro-
nounced change for the better in the lives
OF q number, of men whom be named once
habitual drinkers. In a word, the two
speakers gave two plain object lessons
showing just how local option benefits
the town and the individual, financially
and morally.
A little eating Of the pudding is worth
no end Of argument about it's qualities:
and the strongest of all arguments to
prove the valne in money, morals and
health Of temperance trying it on lie
hourly more and more convincing all fair
and honest citizens. Alter singing America
the audience was dismissed by the Rev.
w. q. Hutchin.
