AGRICULTURAL NOTES

Prof. Grantham who is attending
the National Corn Exhibition, and who
has charge OF the State exhibit, writes
as follows:
THE Delaware exhibition COM
pares very well with other States. Our
soy bean makes quite hit The fact
is that have talked Soy Bean until |
am hoarse. The class OF visitors we
have are very inquisitive and consti-
tute the best farmers of Ohio. No
other station here is making any dis
play (more than two or three varie-
ties) of soy beans. We are the
Station showing the soy bean meal.
The Johnson Co. white corn we
brought, attracts much attention. One
of the men in the Ohio booth next to
ours, told me that people were asking
if soy beans could be grown in Ohio"
1t is matter of some satisfaction
to know that State like Delaware
can make an exhibit so attractive
among the exhibits from other larger
States.
Prof. McCue will speak to number
oi Ladies' Clubs in the lower part OF

Block Signals For Delaware City Road

:. Pennsylvania Railroad authorities,
are installing an electric block signal
system throughout the Delaware City
line from Newark to Porters and Dela-
ware City. The increased freight traf-
FIVE over this branch road has made
this safety precaution necessary. Where
heretofore the responsibility OF switch
ing rested on the train crew, 1t is now
in the hands of the operator at the
station. The signal dial has been
placed in the Office at the old station
showing changes of switch signals at
the functions near Pencader.

The Junior Promenade, given by the
class OF 1912, passes into history as
one OF the most successful hops ever
held at Delaware College. The gym
nasum was tastefully decorated with
blue and gold bunting, banners and
flags; and this combined with the my
riads OF electric lights and the gowns
OF the pretty young women produced
an effect beautiful in the extreme.
The music, refreshments and pro-
grammes were all that could be de-
sired, and great credit is due the COM
mittee. who secured them. The four
teen-piece orchestra, under the direc-
torship of Mr. Straussbach, of Will
mlngton, was very much appreciated
and was considered by many to be the
best ever heard in Newark Supper
was furnished by Caterer Ainscow, OF
Wilmington, and the programmes by
the Chas. H. Elliott Co., OF Philadel-
phia.
Dancing commenced at $50 and con-
tinued until half-past four. An inno-
vation was the grand march led by Mr.
J. p. Millington, the class president,
and Miss Wilson, OF Milford. AS each
couple came to the end OF the ball
room and turned, they were presented
with their programmes; thus avoiding
the confusion which has always pre-
vailed at previous affairs of this kind.
Another innovation, which made quite
a hit" was the singing OF the Alma
Mater by all OF the Delaware men
present, at the beginning OF the Sec
ond hall.
Governor Pennewill accepted the in
vitaton of the class TO attend and
helped considerably by his presence TO
make the dance the great success that
it was. Among the representatives OF
the fair sex present were the follow
