"The visit OF the National Grange,

State is the greatest thing that has
ever happened to Delaware" said w. p.
Peach, a member Of the executive COM
mittee of Harmony Grange, No. ~, of
Mill Creek hundred, today
1T has done more than anything else
to put Delaware on the map. When
many of the Western delegates LETT
their homes for this city they had
trouble in locating Delaware ON the
map"
Mr.. Peach said that the reputation
Of Delaware as corn growing and
apple growing State had been greatly
enhanced since the grange meeting be-
gan. C. L. Spence, of Oregon, and 9.
B. kegley, of Washington. both great
apple growing States, admitted that
Delaware had them beat on apples. Mr..
Peach acting on behalf of Harmony
Grange, sent samples Of apples raised by
the members Of that grange with ma
tional delegates to thirty States
Delegates from the great corn growing
states said, after seeing corn raised by
Harmony Grange members. that they
had never really seen corn before They
begged Mr.. Peach to give them samples
of corn TO exhibit at state corn shows in
their states. Mr.. Peach granted their
requests and samples of corn raised on
Mr.. Peaches 300-acre farm and on the
l25-acre farm of Past State Master
Hervey Walker, at Marshallton, were
given.
The corn was taken by the delegates
in their trunks. Corn was provided for
the state corn shows of Rhode Island,
Florida, Massachusetts, Connecticut
Montana and Nebraska. II is expected
that the Delaware corn will capture all
the awards at these shows.
State Senator H. NJ. Culbertson. Of
Media, Wisconsin, took some corn to
place on exhibit in a glass case in
the High School at his home and also
at the State Institute.
The bulk OF the corn came from Mr..

his corn, but has been breeding his
variety for forty-five years, and the
yield is from so to 100 bushels an
acre, depending on whether the sea-
