milk that from apparently good daires fre-

bacterologically bad Those dairies take the morn
ing milk and combine with the afternoon milk OF

Following that discovery, the inspector made exper-
ments in taking night milk keeping it through the
cooler hours OF the night. combining it with the

In this case The farmer ships the milk by train an
government regards the report as being important
in its bearing upon public health comfort that
probably will summon several OF the milk producers
TO hearings to impress upon them the importance of
this method of making shipments. It is admitted that
the method is practical in al sections as it can
be carried only where train schedules will per-
nit
We fake pleasure in submitting The hndings of the
Federal inspector TO the milk producers who supply
the Wilmington market feeling that if they ap-
peal to their good Judgment and the train schedules

The public has become discriminating in the mat

An rNFULFILLED PROMISE.

LrRUIT growers in the neghborhood of selbyrllle.
i susses county ST. pped through that station this
season 425 carloads of strawberries contain
ed 2fo crates total of 100000 crates for the Sea-
son The market value of the fruit in excess
of 100000
We recall those facts, already printed 10 public
mind for the purpose Of leading up story which,
think will interest particularly the people in that
thriving Sussex county town. Years ago. when Col
onel r. L. Holiday superintendent of the Della
ware railroad, prominent citizen Of Selbyve at one
of the railroad meetings, called attention TO the
fact that 25 carloads of strawberries shipped
through that station Colonel Holiday expressed r;s
appreciation Of the fact the sebyville man quickly
retorted by telling him that selbyvne had attained
such Importance as a shipping point that it should
have Lew station. Colonel Hollidao told him to wait
until its annual shipments Of strawberries amounted
to $50 cars and it should have one.
Since then the shipments have increased to 425 car
loads and the point of it all is that the railroad still
is using the old station while the town and its
business have been growing by leaps and bounds
Based upon the figures in Colonel Holidays promise
the town is in position to claim at least two new
stations to replace the ramshacke it now has
