COOL BREEzES
HELP FARMERS
Make Life Comfortable While
Short Crops Are Being
Harvested

New Castle county farmers are
elated over the change in the temper
ature. The past week has been ex-
ceedingly hard on the men and horses.
The corn is high and the horses and
men who were cultivating suffered
much during the week. Many farm
hands who were affected by the sun
on Monday were not able to work for
a couple of days.
The potato crop in New Castle coun-
ty is going to be poor. Several farm
ers in the King street market today
said they find that potatoes in the
ground are small and that the leaves
have been blighted and are falling
eff. Consequently the potato crop
will be light. Maryland farmers re-
port that the drought has killed the
potato crop there and there will be
an exceedingly short hay crop. Farm
ers throughout New Castle county
say they will have fair yield of hay
but that the wheat crop in many sec
tions is poor.

PROGRESS In
CHANNEL WORK
Latest Survey Shows What
is Being Done to Remove
ShOaI Areas

Major Deakyne. engineer in charge
Of Delaware River improvements, has
made public the latest survey as Of
July 3, showing the depths Of water
over the various channel ranges from
Philadelphia to deep water in Della
ware Bay. The significant feature Of
the report is the progress made in re-
moving shoal areas over various i'm
portant ranges. At only fve points
in the channel we're found shoals
varying from 500 to 1000 feet in
length, over which was less than 30
feet mean low water
At the Upper and Lower Horseshoe
ranges, as well as at Fort Mihiin and
Deep Water Point, a depth greater
than 80 feet at mean low water was
recorded
More than 20 feet was found at
Schooner Ledge, Bellevue, Cherry Is
land, Reedy Island, Dan Baker and
Liston. AT Tinicum Island 2S feet
was recorded, and at New Castle
Range 2S.9 feet The report showed
that considerable progress had been
made since the previous survey in
securing a uniform mean low water
depth Of 30 feet As work on the
35-foot channel will be inaugurated as
soon as contracts now in the hands
of the engineers are awarded, Major
Deakyne sees no difficulty in giving
the port a channel deep enough 10
accommodate the largest steamships
likely to trade between this port and
Europe
