Pennsy Spreads Gospel of
Better Farming on Peninsula

The State College of Agriculture of
Maryland and Delaware, and the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company viii
on Monday start on an extensive pro-
gram of carrying the gospel of better
farming to the homes of farmers liv-
ing on the Eastern Shores of Mary
land and Virginia, and throughout the
State of Delaware.
By the use of a special train, which
will be provided free of charge by
the railroad company, State College
agriculturists viii tour the entire
Peninsula, stopping at forty-two sta
tions for the purpose of giving prac-
tical talks on farming subjects of vital
interest TO every section. Six days
will be required to make the tour, but
provision has been made to have talks
given at such points that no farmer
on the Peninsula will have TO go very
far from home TO attend.
This educational work which is be-
ing done among the farmers of the
Delaware-Maryland Virginia Peninsula
is in pursuance of the policy of the
Pennsylvania Railroad TO upbuild the
rural districts of the territory
traversed by its lines. During each
winter since 1908 the company has
been operating these trains with a
view to covering every division of the
system.
During the week, the lecturers on
the Delaware Mary Virginia Pc
ninsula Farmers train will pay par
ticular attention to soil fertility, good
seeds. apples, berries, cantaloupes,
white and sweet potatoes, poultry, to-
matoes, lime and alfalfa. These sub
icets have been selected by the State
College authorities as they all blend
together in the one principal thing
for which the Peninsula is noted
truck farming
DR.. r. S. Hill, director of Farmers
Institutes of Maryland. and Wesley
Webb, secretary of the State Board of
Agriculture of Delaware, will be in
charge of the train. The speakers
will be practical farmers who have
made a success in the various lines
Of agriculture.
