FIFTEEN MILLION QUARTS

Delawsre's greatest strawberry season
now shows shipments, over the Delaware
Railroad of Il, 260,711 qnarts of home
grown strawberries.
This is as against a total shipment for
last year, of 9,576,22l.
Strawberries ran regularly all last week,
about one million quarts being shipped
from peninsula farms every day.
II is understood that the Delaware Pro.
duce Exchange, with headquarters at
Dover, did shipping business on berries
alone last week amounting to $50, 900,
although this farmers central orgsniza.
tion has only been in existence few
months.
A new and valuable discovery to the
truitgrowers of Delaware is the so.called
Bethel late strawberry, now being grown
in large quantities by r. F. Thomas and
other nurserymen and horticulturists near
Harrington, this county.
The Bethel, about the size of the Candy

From clipping returns received at the

For this assistance on the part OF the
Press, the National Association desires to

Although the movement for Tubercu-

Of time and funds, the National Associ-
alton feels that the campaign has been
worth while. Many foreign countries
observed the day also. Plans are now
under way for q wider observance of the
day in 1911. The active cooperation of
every religious denomination, besides
that of the governors, mayors aud public
officials, as well as that Of other agencies
will be sought.
The promoters of the movement an.
nounce that they do notswish to interfere
with the church calendar of any denom-

special tuberculosis Sunday as regular

berCulosis, brought up in the churches
for any service or part of a service and
as nearly simultaneously in all parts of

HLE0AL SENTENCHS RY L.P.,S

It is So years since the Laws of
Delaware - now amounting TO
1900 pages-were completely re-
vised and codified. The last
Legislature authorized the ap-
pointment of a "Revised Code
Commission" for this purpose, to
report to the next legislature a
brief, uniform and consistent
body of statute law.
Il is none too soon, for some of
the laws of the state are in q con-
dition of much perplexity and
certain criminal statutes are so
uncertain and confused that it is
difficult for one not learned in the
law to know either his rights or
his liabilities under them; and the
citizen thereby is exposed to q
deril which in its results is not
unlike that which the historian
Dio Cassius describes when tell
ing of a certain Roman tyrant
who wrote his laws in fine char
acters and hung them on high
pillars in the public forum, in
order thus the better to entrap
and enslave the people, Let US
specify. In cases of simple tres
pass on railroad property, for in.
stance, the Justices of the Peace
all over the state are in the habit
Of imposing sentences Of impris-
onment from two to twelve times
the term prescribed by the law,
viz: Jail terms from 10 to go or
more days; whereas the law of
1901, Vol. 20, Chap. 79, Laws of
Delaware, which the latest and
only legal statute on the subject
specifically limits such sentences
to five days in Jail. This is a
grave invasion of rights which
the law esteems sacred even in
the meanest individual. One of
the leading magistrates in vii.
nington habitualIy gives them 10
days and "let's it go at that.
The liberty of the citizen is no
such trifle that magistrates, high
or low, can thus glibly "let it go
at that" This practice is a scan
dal to the administration of jus.
tice in this state and should be
so sharply rebuked as to, cause
its instant discontinuance.
Surely this serious abuse Of
their Office by Justices of the
Peace if brought to the notice
of the Judges of the Supreme
Court, would be by them cor
rected, that is if they feel it a
duty to use on behalf of public
justice that supervisory and cor.
rective power over these lower
magistrates which al common
law, judges were accustomed to
exercise.
The writer who has had q long
experience with the highly salts
factory workings of a Penal Code
published separately from the
civil statute law, (such as is used
by Minnesota, New York and
other states) ventures to suggest
to this Com mission the advisable
ity of introducing such a system
in this state. 1t greatly facili.
tates the practice of the law by
the profession and by prosecuting
attorneys, besides being more
easily understood by the laity
and the lower magistrates.

BOOZE STEERED
HIM WRONGI

A call was turned in at the police
station last night by boarders in the
Canoose Boarding house on North
Commercial street for officers to
come Immediately as there was a
crazy man disturbing the peace of
that establishment. When Oficers
Burkhart and Murphy responded to
the call, they found a man calmly
sitting before the fireplace, toasting
his shins. The lady of the house
said that upon entering her sitting
room, she was both surprised and
startled to see a man there, and
asked him what he was doing. The
fellow became real indignant at be-
ing questioned, and invited the lady
of the house to retire and leave him
alone, He gave his name as H. r.
Babcock and an over indulgence in
spirits caused him to loose his way.
The police locked Babcock up in the
city jail for disturbing the peace.

ORCHARD NOTES

(By the County Fruit Inspector
The time is at hand when the
spring spraying should be done. Be-
fore the spraying is attempted see
that the trees are properly pruned
Cut off all limbs that are so high
they cannot be thoroughly sprayed
from the ground. In spraying use
the Lime-Sulphur solution. A good
article can now be secured ready
prepared. Dilute this with water.
If the trees are clean, that is, free
from moss and rough bark, dilute
the solution one part solution to ten
of water. If not clean, it would be
safer to make it one to eight. If
the trees are old and covered with
moss add two cans of concentrated
lye to this.
All fruit trees of every age and
variety should be sprayed with the
Lime-Sulphur Solution while DOR
mant The weather has been so bad
that no spraying could be done 10
the present time. 1t will be neces-
sary to make all preparations for
the work NOW, so it can be quickly
done when the weather is good.
Anyone expecting to plant young
trees should secure them from the
nursery very soon. Heel them in
until the ground is in good condi-
ton to work. One year old trees
will give the best satisfaction.
When the time comes to plant,
plough the ground deep and harrow
it we'll. Dig the holes deep and
large enough to take in the roots
without cramping or twisting. Cut
off all injured or broken roots and
trim back the side roots so they Will
not be more than six or eight inches
long. Place fine dirt around the
roots and press it down firmly.
When the tree is planted it should
stand about two inches deeper than
it did in the nursery row.
After the trees are planted they
should be all cut off to exactly the
same height, say 20, "a, or 80 in
ches. When they start to grow the
top fiveor six limbs should be al
lowed to grow. The rest should be
kept cut off. Or what is better
rub them off when they first start
while they are tender.
The young orchard should be
thoroughly cultivated until July IS
Any kind of cultivated crop such al
potatoes, pumpkins, beans or Other
garden stuff may be grown between
the trees if desired.
