The business men of Bamberg
should certainly advertise the fact
that Bamberg is paying more for cot
4ton than other towns. The receipts
here are large each day, but they can
be made larger if every man was
walking, talking advertisement for
Bamberg.

Du POnt Offers A Million For
Delaware Boulevard

Wilmington, DEL. Feb. 20 The most
remarkable offer ever made by citi
zen for public improvement is that of
7. Coleman Du Pont, president Of the
Du Pont Powder Company and former
Republican State chairman. He has
offered to advance 81. 600 to the
State to be used in the construction of
a State road the entire length of the
State. from the Pennsylvania line to
the Maryland boundry, making a mac
adam road 60 feet wide and l03 miles
long.
This offer. coming just at the time
when State Senator Drexeler gave no.
tice in the House at Dover for just such
road and the borrowing of $3.50. 900 to
construct it, came as big surprise. 1t
is the more remarkable because Mr..
DUPONT will countenance no bond issue
and will agree to be reimbursed for the
advancement of the $1,000. 900 in man.
ner that is original and novel.
He wants to effect an agreement
whereby the difference in taxation be-
tween the existing assessment and the
assessment that the improvement will
surely create will be turned over to him.
He figured that he will be repaid in a
few years.

food staple at once, less expensive more
abundant.
The price Of meats in this country
will also very probably be kept down by
the lowering of the United States rates
to uniform tax of lie per pound.
which is the mutual reciprocity rate.
Our present duties have ranged upward
lAc. per pound on fresh meats to &c.
per pound on bacon and hams. The re-
moval of all duties on live animals will
have a similar tendency to reduce the
cost of living. while the importation Of
food cattle from Canada will not seri-
ously affect the stock farming of Mary
land whose cattle are two-thirds dairy
animals.

Up to the present time duty of 45
per cent. has prevented Canadian ma
kers of cream separators from Offering
their product to American farmers and
creameries. Under the pending agree
ment this duty will be entirely done

extensive Canadian cream separator in
dustry will be given an opportunity to
