PROPOSED PLAN WHEREBY THE GROWERS ON THE DELMARWA
PENINSULA CAN REAP THE PROPER REWARDS OF THEIR LABORS

The Demarvia is known by inhabitants the
greatest garden of the
Unfortunately the general public the territory surrounding
the peninsula for 500 miles lacks this knowledge
Every grower realize that il the actual the
great variety products grown the peninsula realized
that fruit vegetables of Demarva origin Of
better quality than those grown elsewhere would make
market all Demarva products better than average prices
and also TO increase the demand for such products
1t may be of great pride of cantaloupes
the Demarva Peninsula the finest canaoupes in the
but will be of very little cash profit TO him unless the
consuming public knows that his canaoues the finest and the
way to let them know is to advertise the fact
But the individual grower has neither the time money,
facilities for advertising his product The only adequately
forward the sale of Demara products and to get the higher
prices their quality for all reliable unite
organization the object of which shall be advertise Del
mara products the consuming market within 500 miles
of the rennsula.
To this end there has consideration of the project
of forming association be known the Demara Products
Association The membership this association is consist OF
Demaa of fruits and vegetables and and
of such fruit vegetables the following principles
The association adopt symbol or trade mark
which members will be licensed their packages Of
specified standard quality. The penalty for the

GoshaWk's Sailor Threw Shell
in Boat Holding Germans
After HeIgoIand Battle.
BRITISH FORMALLY REPLY
TO CHARGES OF ENEMY
London Declares Bluejackets Did Not
Fire on Drowning Men After
Naval Engagement

LONDON, September "a. 1 p.m.-The
British admiralty has issued a formal
reply to the statement given publicity
by the German minister at Copenhagen
to the effect that British officers fired
on drowning German sailors after the
naval engagement off Helgoland. and
that a British shell was thrown into a
lifeboat containing German survivors
of this fight.
The admiralty admits the charge that
the shell was thrown, but explains the
circumstances as follows:
Every effort was made to save life
until German cruiser of the Stettin
class appeared on the scene and opened
"a heavy fire on the British destroyers
and their small boats. The destroyers
were forced to retire in order to avoid
destruction. The Goshawk removed her
men from her boat, leaving it to German
prisoners. nearly all of whom were
wounded. 1t is to be regretted that a
bluejacket on the forecastle of the Cos
hawk, exasperated at the inhuman con-
duct of the German cruiser, threw a
projectile, which could not possibly, un-
der the circumstances. have exploded.
into this small boat as i drifted past
his ship.
Evening star., 1914-09-24
Rendered Some Aid.

Before leaving the submarine saw
that these boats were provided with
water and biscuits and a compass, and
it gave the German officers their posi-
tion and the course to Helgoland. The
officers and men of the destroyer De-
fender stripped themselves of every
thing but their trousers. tearing up
their clothes to serve as bandages for
the wounded Germans"
Regarding the allegations that Ger
mans ffred at German sailors who were
in the water. the admiralty says there
are many British naval officers and
men who actually saw officers of the
German cruisers Mainz and Koenigin
Luise fire at their own men in the wa
ter. presumably because they were of
the opinion that they were prema-
turely deserting their posts.
There are many men in our hospf-
tals," the admiralty continues, whose
wounds testify to the accuracy of the
German officers fire. Out of $50 men
saved from the Mainz about $50 were
picked up swimming in the water.
Many of them had been wounded by
revolver bullets. The remaining 200
could not be induced to jump over
board. They were taken OFF by a de-
stroyer which laid alongside just be-
fore the Mainz went down."

It Cannot Be Defended.

This. no doubt, is the incident re-
ferred to by the German minister at
Copenhagen. It, cannot be defended
but the act was done under consider
able provocation, and it was surely a
trivial offense compared to that of the
German cruiser which fired many shells
at the boats of British destroyers while
they were engaged in humane and
chivalrous action"
Dealing with the rescue by the Brit
ish submarine E4 of the occupants of
the boats which the destroyer Defend
er had been obliged to abandon under
heavy fire, the admiralty says:
after covering the retreat of the de-
stroyer the submarine returned to the
boats and removed the British officers
and men and three Germans. The sub
marine might well have taken another
German officer and six unwounded men
prisoners. but as the two boats con-
tanned eighteen very badly wounded
Germans he humanely left the German
officer and the six men who were not
hurt to care for them and navigate the
boats.
