Good Advice For Farmers

IN a talk to gragners recently,
B. +. B. WoodaIl of Milford par
ticularIy advocated a more general
cultivation of sweet potatoes. He
said, among other things:
'The Delaware peninsula is
blessed with small streams on
which steamers ply between the
Iarge centers and the farm lands,
thus making the freight rates prac-
tically nothing. When the potato
industry is developed hundreds Of
buyers will come here to buy the
crop. Canneries ought to be more
generally supported and petitioned
for by the farmers, for these offer
means of disposing Of large acre
ages Of small fruits and produce
when the city markets are glutted.
In addition the freight charges,
costs Of baskets and crates and
carriage charges are done away
with. And while there are already
hundreds Of tomato and pea can
neries in lower Delaware, it is now
time that industries which will can
Strawberries, blackberries, pears,
small peaches, apples, pumpkins,
beans, corn and other vegetables
should be encouraged.
For instance, | have found that
the blackberry called the Lovett
can be grown with much satisfac-
ton and can be canned equally as
satisfactorily. | grow it now quite
extensively and all Of my berries
find a ready purchaser from the
Torsch factory at Milford, where
they paid me last year 81 a crate,
and | grow 100 crates to the acre.
Now II we encourage more Gamer
les for these undoubtedly we could
grow them proftably at so crates
to the acre, and even though the
price were cut to $3.50 a crate. It
makes fine and highly esteemed

heavy producer and comes into
bearing between seasons"

last winter. Cash prizes amounting
to about $500 will be offered.
There are some thirty varieties OF
apples of recognized value and each
of these will receive prizes as boxes
and as plates, and some OF them as
barrels and other form Of pack
age. The first prize for the best
box of apples Of each variety will

third -, or $40 for each variety.
This will amount to some $500. In
addition the best single box OF ap-
pies will receive $25, the second $l5
and the third $40. The best three
boxes will receive $15, $40 and 50.
The best five boxes will receive $25,
$15 and $40. The best ten boxes
will receive $50, 500 and $15. In
other words more than $500 will be
given for boxes alone.
The complete premium list will
be issued in IA short time. In addi-
ton to these cash prizes many spec
ial prizes will probably be offered.
The Delaware Nurseries, at Mil
ford, has sent in the first offer,
namely, 20 worth of nursery stock;
and Gen. Joseph B. Seth Of Easton,
a member of the executive commit
tee, offers SO for the best Martin
house exhibited at the meeting,
made by a boy. The house must
contain not less than fourteen
compartments and not more than
twenty. Beauty and workmanship
will be considered in awarding the
prize. This prize is offered to en-
courage boys to make Martin
houses and to encourage farmers
to put them up.

Let's Be Fair

There has been a disposition on
the part of some people and
newspapers to emphasize the
fact that Schmidt, the murderer
of Aena Aumuller, was a priest
of the Catholic church. This is
quite in contrast to individual
and newspaper treatment of
Richeson, the Protestant clergy
man who murdered his sweet
heart. Such contrast is sincere
ly to be regretted, as the fact of
the matter is that Schmidt is no
more representative of the Cath
Ollie clergy than Richeson was of
the Protestant min s tie RS.
Neither is the former to be
judged by Schmidt any more
than the latter are to be judged
by Richeson. Both are ex-
ceptions and reasoning from ex-
ceptions is not only faulty but
unjust. Let's be fair.
Efforts to place stigma on the
Catholic church because one of
its members has gone wrong, or

be followed to its logical end, al

Avoid Sedafive Cough Medicines.

If you want to contribute directly
to the occurrence Of capillary bronchi-

what is needed. That cleans out the

SpOnses for Ferlilizine.

The department of agriculture,
Fthrongh its bureau of soils. has
sBecenJly completed analysis OF
the loggerhead sponge. which
grows abundantly in the waters
of Southern Florida, to deter
mine it's value as a fertilizer.
This sponge, according to Mr..
Tho mas E. Reedy of Key West,
grows in countless thousands and
to an enormous size in shallow
water, wee:e It is easy TO pre-
cure. Mr.. Reedy also states
that the farmers of the Florida
keys use the loggerhead sponge
with wonderful results, and
hardly ever use chemical fertil-
izers. DR.. H. F. Moore of the
United States bureau of fisher
les cites the use of this sponge
10y citrus fruit growers of the
Florida mainland and states that
he has seen this sponge growing
IN such quantities that he has
long thought it should be exploit
ed.
A specialist of the department
recently made analyses of SAM
piles from Key West which YER
5ify the value of this sponge as a
fertilizer. The analyses show
that the approximate results on
air dry material show four per
cent, of nitrogen, three quar-
tiers Of one per cent, each of
potash and phosphoric acid, five
per cent, of lime and 40 per
cent, of organic matter. The
specialists say that it is evident
from the composition of this ma
sterial and its demonstrated
efficiency as a fertilizer that it
has considerable value to farm
sers and fruit growers who have
easy access to it in the shadows
of the sea. The department is
conducting further investigation
so determine the feasibility of
extending the use of this sponge
as a fertilizer.

Wedding Ring on Foot.

SlQeS woman PROBABLY WlCnOuC
an equal in the world. She was
born minus arms, yeo she can do
almost anything with her feet.
Her name is Mrs. Pierce. and re.
Gently she attended dinner CIV
en- to the old people o f t h e
town by the local Lodge of Buff
faloes.
She surprised everybody pres
ent by placing he feet upon the
table, and picking up her knife
and fork with marvellous dex-
terity commenced to enjoy the
feast. She manipulated the knife
and fork quite as we'll as any Or
binary person would with her
hands and although she looked
very uncomfortable with her feet
on the table, she was quite at
ease.
One had to look very closely to
discern that Mrs. Pierce was &C
tually using her feet, and had
anyone been locking round and
had not known of her infirma-
ty, the would have passed with
out noticing anything, 80 natural
did she look.
AS a housewife, Mrs. Pierce is
truly wonderful. She cooks the
dinner, cleans the house; in fact,
she fulfills-and very creditably,
too-almost all of the duties of
a housewife. She has had seven
children, but of these six have
died. The seventh, however, is
married, and Mrs. Pierce is now
a grandmother. The other chill
dren did not die early, and up to
the time of their deaths, Mrs.
Pierce did not require any as
sistance in order to adequately
attend to them.
This unique woman wears her
wedding ring on the left foot.
When she was married she was
asked if she would care to sit
down for the bridegroom to place
the ring on the toe, but she re-
fused, and lifted her foot to the
level of her husbands waist with
the greatest of ease, the neces-
sary performance was success
fully carried out.
Then, again, Mrs. Pierce can
write excellently with the left
foot and can perform the art of
needlework to wonderful de-
gree of excellence. She works
with the left foot and guides the
material with the right.
When asked to hand" any.
thing, Mrs. Pierce does so with
perfect ease and comfort.
Should the article asked for be
on the sideboard or on the piano,
her foot would leisurely lift
itself up to that particular place,
and request would be fulfilled.
1t is said that Mrs. Pierce's feet
are far more capable than the
hands of some people.
