sweet potatoes, which will clear him full
ly six hundred dollars if prices of last
season are attained. He also has a fine
field of corn ready to have the fodder
saved, and his canteloupes and waterme-

Is THE problem which has always
sv confronted every man who has at
,e tempted to do road work in the
" lower counties of Delaware, has
!. been that of getting good teams of
S either horses or mules to draw the
4 road plows and other machinery.
. but this greatest of all obstacles has
been very largely overcome by the
use OF the gasoline engines which
4 have come into use within the past
- year in Sussex county. These en-
! gines draw the road scrapers more
. swiftly, with less worry to the op-
orator, and more steadily than
horses formerly did this work, and
4 the completed job is left in better
/ shape, both for use and its appear
ance. In the First District of Sus-
sex county two of these engines /
}, have been working for the past two
months, and the longer they are
used the more satisfied are those
who are operating them. It is true
that these engines require men to
operate them who are skilled in their
management, and who are capable
OF adjusting the machinery as we'll
as the engines to the many different
kinds of work encountered in road a
grading, but it is equally true that I
the engines work more rapidly, do
better work, and for that reason are c
more economical than horses to de- o
velop power. We believe that the
gasoline engine has come to stav as
part Of the road working machinery
of lower Delaware. 1t is available \,
at any time for work, when farmers B
would be unable to spare their teams o.,
at the time when road work should
be done, and it saves the animals 81
the often dangerous straining they ar
meet. The member of the Levy I.
Court from the First District is to ne
be congratulated for introducing ia
the experiment. so
