FINDS SUSSEX
FARM IDEAL
After Country Trip Texan
Buys NantiCOke River
Property
GARDEN SPOT OF
WORLD OWNER SAYS

NEWARK, Oct. 29.-To find what
he considered an ideal farm in Della
ware, after travelling all over the
country was the experience Of Charles
w Cobb, whose son, Charles A.
Cobb, entered Delaware College this
fall to take a course in agriculture.
The farm which Mr.. Cobb considered
ideal and which he purchased about
two years ago consists OF 800 acres
and is located on the Nanticoke River
three miles from Seaford. Mr.. Cobb
is a district manager for the General
Electric Company, and at the time
that he discovered his ideal farm the
headquarters Of his district was at
Ell Paso, Tex, where he made his
home with his family, consisting of
his wife and the one son. He had
lived in Texas and Mexico for eight
years, but previous to that his home
was In Boston. Mr. Cobb for some
years had been looking for a farm
that would suit him, and where he
could retire to when he decided to
give up business, TO spend the re-
mainder OF his days
Charles A. Cobb, the son and Della
ware College student. in talking of his
fathers farm, said he did not know
how his father came to find the farm
which he considers ideal, but does
know that he was so charmed with
the place when he first saw 1t that
he Immediately purchased It. The
son at that time was a student at
Phillips Andover Academy. Andover,
Mass Mr. Cobb moved his family
to the farm along the NanticolSe at
once. where they have lived since. al
though he still travels considerably,
but wiz probably retire to the farm
in few years.
This experience Of Mr. Cobb's. who
had seen all the best farm land in
the country. speaks highly for lower
Delaware and would seem to sub
stantiate what the Sussex Countians
claim, that IT, is the garden spot of
Lhe country. It is a model truck
farm and Charles A. Cobb, after COM
pleting his course in scientific farm
ing at Delaware College, will return
10 take charge Of the farm.

Evening journal., 1913-10-29

It might be interesting for the base
ball fans to know that under Connie
Mack his ball club has been in Il
world series conflicts. and in those
games not a single one of his pitchers
were ever knocked out Of the box. In
all of those games the leader of the
Athletics made only one change in his
pitchers, and that took place in the
fifth game of the 1911 series, when
Cocmbs vas taken out of the game
because of an injury.
Big league ballpiayers say that one
of the most promising young pitchers
who has horned into the big league
is none other than Jim Shaw, who
was secured by the Washington Club.
American League ball-players say
that he has a lot of speed and will
get along all right in the big league.
If that be the case. Clark Griffith has
a good-locking pitching staff. John
son and Boehiing, with Engle coming
along good, should make the Griffith
team look pretty good as the bell
sends them away for the 1914 trouble.
Dode Criss, who comes back to the
big organization again from Texas.
had a few things to say the other day
which might be interesting to the
New York Yankees and the fans.
Criss thinks that he is returning this
time to stay. He claims that he
never did get the opportunity to show
his real worth while with the Browns,
as he was used for a pinch hitter
most of the time.
And while on the subject of this
pinch hitting il can be said that Criss
more than delivered when the Yankees
were battling with the Browns. Criss
has a record of slamming the bulb for
a hcme run with the bases full in ST.
Louis, and he made another long hit
In New York.
Il will stick around the big league
