During Year
Jersey FARMERS BUY
IN THE LOCAL STORES

That the general boosting of Will
mington by the Chamber Of Com
merce is bearing fruit, is shown 10y
the wonderful increase in the number
of wagons carried by the steamer
Long Beach. of the New Jersey and
Wilmington Ferry Company. during
the year between Wilmington and
Pennsgrove.
The number carried in 1914 was
just six times the number carried in
1918. The number this year was
5000, while in 1913 it was 500 and N
1912 but so.
Joseph S. Wilson, manager of the
ferry company. said that the wagons
carried were delivery wagons Of Will
mington merchants which were going
to New Jersey to deliver goods bought
IN this city, and the wagons Of Jersey
farmers coming TO this city to sell
produce here. After selling their
produce the farmers had pocketful
of money and en- empty wagon which
induced them TO make purchases from
Wilmington merchants, he pointed
out
There also was large increase In
the number of automobiles carried be-
tween Wilmington and Pennsgrovc
this year. the number being 6069. as
compared with 3.334 in 1913. and 9l2
In 1872 Every State i'm the Union was
represented by cars A Canadian car
is seen frequently as well as cars from
Florida. Texas and California.
The Christiana river would have
been frozen over solid recently but for
the trips made by the boats of the

/ Wilmington Ferry Company. There
are at least sixteen trips made every
day by these boats. PHILADELPHIA is
