'DR. WILEY ON THE PENINSULA

In an address delivered in one of
the western cities, DR.. Wiley Of
Washington. referred to the Della
ware peninsula as a place where land
is cheaper and more productive than
in the best parts of the West. He
paid a high tribute to the natural
resources of this peninsula. The
facts stated are known to the. resi-
dents of the peninsula although not
always fully appreciated by them.
The Baltimore American not long
since spoke Of the peninsula as the
"Plains of Paradise" This may be
a triAe extravagant, but the Della
ware peninsula is certainly a most
desirable spot in which to live, and
with little enterprise it could be
made a garden. The land is fertile
and close to the markets. Part of it
has had but little development. Al
most every kind of crop can be cul-
tivated successfully in Delaware.
Fruits and vegetables flourish here.
Land is cheap, all things considered,
and some day Delaware will have
developed in a manner that will be
surprising even to the most optimis-
tic of Delaware enthusiasts. Will
