much destruction. 1t is believed if
the insects get spread all over Sussex
county that it is only a question of
time before the berry industry will
be doomed, unless some means is
devised for their determination, or
a preventative is found to keep
them from working on the berry
patches. For the past few days
white potatoes have been retailing
in some of the stores at Georgetown
at 25 cents per gallon or at the
rate of $500 per bushel, which is
the highest price paid for tubers in
that section of the State for years.
The high cost is due to the failure
of the crop last year.

POTATOES SELL HIGH

Bring the Highest Prices for Which

While the fruit growers in the
western section of Sussex County
are experiencing much trouble with
a small insect which seems to be
playing havoc with berry patches,
growers of the luscious fruit in
the section of Georgetown so far
have not experienced any trouble.
From what can be learned from the
farmers around Bridgeville. Laurel
and Sesford. who have visited the
county-seat for the past few DAYS,
their patches have been damaged to
the extent of hundreds of dollars bv
this little insect which is described
By some as being a specie of the
fly. 1t is said that few of the berry
growers who have suffered losses.
are able to describe the pest, and
very few of them have been seen.
One thing is noticeable, however,
and that is that most of the fields
visited are the ones located near
the woods. 1t is believed that the
insect stays in the bushes and wood
in the dav time and gets in it's
deadly work at night. Some of
the farmers who have not seen the
little enemy at work and in fact
have not discovered them on their
berry vines, are inclined to think
that it is little bug or worm which
goes down the earth. In some in
stances the growers have found it
necessary to plow their patches up
because the vines are so badly cut
Harry R. Marvel, an experienced
farmer, residing near Laurel. who
formerly lived near George getown, says
that green berries in his patches
have been cut from the vines anc
that one of his small patches was
cut so severely that it was render ed
worthless. The insect made its
first appearance IN the vicinity Of
Bridgeville a year or two ago anc
caused the growers in that section
to suffer a severe loss. This year

REV, JOHN NJ, ARTtRS IS
BADLY HURT IN ACCIDENT
THROWN EIGHT FEET BY A RUN
AWAY TEAM AT MlDDLETOWN
His Face and Hands Were Lacerated
Two Other Accidents Occurred
in Middietown Last Week

III NNhQlCtOWll GoSA
AS Rev. John Nj. Arters, of Mid
dletown, well-known in Smyrna and
Clayton. was driving in a wagon
Wednesday afternoon about three
O'Clock with colored boy, going to
the creamery. some thoughtless
young men began footing the horn
of an automobile standing in front
of the Shallcross garage. This
frightened the horse and he started
to run. The driver might have
gotten the animal under control,
but the practical jokers kept the
footing up, and the horse. now
thoroughly scared, ran away furious
ly, and, as Mr.. Arters attempted to
turn him out of the street to pre-
vent his running on to the railroad
track. both he and the boy were
violently hurled to the ground. Mr..
Arters was thrown eight or ten
feet, bodily, alighting on the left
side, injuring the left hand and
lacerating his forehead and face
badly. He was knocked senseless,
and didn't regain consciousness un-
til after he had been lifted up by
]. Frank McWhorter. and conveyed
in his automobile to his own resi-
dence, undressed and put to bed
by the doctor and others. Mr..
Arters is a retired Methodist min
lister, "a years old, and though
severely injured is now resting
more easily. and the doctor in at
tendance expects a recovery unless
some internal injury was received
by the patient in his fall. He com
plains of considerable pain in his
side. The boy received compara-
lively little injury and the team
continued for about two miles south,
where it was found by Mr.. Nc
Whorter, who went to hunt it in
his automobile.

Hospitals Fer Advanced Cases.

BY DR. WILLIAM H WEIGH
II is nor so easy 10 say exact
IL what has been responsible for
this progressive diminution in
the amount OF tuberculosis. but
Koch in Germany and Arthur
NewshOlme. the best vital statis-
tician in English speaking cOun-

that the factor that has done the
most is what is called institu-
tional segregation. That means
the isolation of patients with tu-
berculosis, so far as is possible,
in institutions. That should be
emphasized today as the central
feature of the campaign against
tuberculosis. and the great need
in this country is a supply of
suitable hospitals for these cases
of advanced tuberculosis.

THE END OF TUBERCULOSIS
Concerning Predisposition.

BY DR. LAWRENCE F. FLICK.
Some families undoubtedly are
more prone to tuberculosis than
others. This is true not only of
families but.Of races. Predispo-
sition is usually divided into
three nds-individual. family
and racial. The individual pre-
disposition is often brought
about by improper living and by
excess in eating and drinking.
Family predisposition may be
due to inherited tendencies or to
environment under which the
family lives Racial predisposi-
ton appears TO hinge largely
upon the length of time to which
the race has been exposed to the
disease and the resistance which
the race has built up against the
disease.
