WHY NOT REPAVE MAIN ST.

The Transcript merely wishes to
know if our Board of Town Commis-
sioners who have done useful municipal
things that praise them IN the gates"
really intend to make the owners of the
worst pavements in town fix them up,
just as they have forced the owners of
property on back streets and at the
East end of town to do?
Not few criticisms are heard about
making the small property owner re-
pave, and letting the bigger ones go.
1t is fact within our personal know
ledge that yearly for three or four
years certain of the owners of the
worst pavements in town have been
notified, over and over again, but moth
ing is done
Surely three years notice is long
enough!
Some of our Main street business
men and leading property owners, ex-
press a purpose to repave their own
sidewalks and help remove the discredi-
table showing Middletown makes on
its most used and most prominent
street; others refuse, and must be com
PEELED to do their plain civic duty.
Will the Town Board not end the
matter this year?

DELAWARE'S APPLES
In The Near Future Will Be The
Greatest Producers
MIR. SOPER'S GREAT SUCCESS

In the near future Delaware will be
one of the greatest producers of fine
grade apples of all states of the United
States, and possibly in the world. There
are many large orchards planted, and
while the growers like Soper, Bancroft
and Derby are the pioneers and have
orchards twenty years old, yet the
modern orchards which are now coming
into bearing, excel the orchards of the
earlier years, by season of the varie-
ties which have been found best suited
to the climate of Delaware, will be
really the orchards which will put Della
ware on the mitch of fame as an apple
producer. The annual meeting of the
Delaware Apple Company at the great
orchards near Bridgeville, recently, was
a demonstration of Delaware for
apples. We were impressed with this
fact as the orchards were inspected.
The Sunday Star editorially says of this
particular meeting: "The annual in
spection of the big orchards of the Della
ware Apple Comoany at Bridgeville, on
Thursday, July l, served to open the
eyes of many of the visitors to the
wonderful possibilities offered for
scientific horticulture in Delaware.
Many of the members of the party were
stockholders in the apple company and
were acquainted with the great work
under way, but there We're others to
whom the great orchard was an educat-
ing and stimulating spectacle. The
handling of this enterprise on such a
large scale should be a convincing proof
that Delaware is especially adapted for
the profitable growth of fruit, particu
larly of apples. The result of the in
spection will be particularly encouraging
to the farmers on the Peninsula who
have recently engaged in the production
of fruit, as well as those who are about
to undertake the planting of fruit trees.
One of the most interesting visitors was
Francis N. Topher, of Magnolia. MIR.
Soper is the father of apple growing in
this State, and is'well styled ''The Apple

enthusiasm as an apple grower, but also
makes it clear that he is convinced that
Lower Delaware and the Peninsula are
again to become leaders in peach grow
ing in this country. Many of the trees
planted for years ago in the Delaware
Apple Company orchard are bearing
apples already. The average period
required for apple trees to mature is
seven years. If the trees in this or
chard continue to grow in the next three
years as they have so far one OF the
biggest problems to be solved will be
how to get their enormous yield of fruit
to market. The inspection of the or
chards is now an annual affair and much
interest is taken in it by some of the
most progressive business men in the
State, and those who believe in the big
possibilities offered fruit growers on
the Peninsula.

Explode Mine In Delaware River

Two submarine mines were exploded
in the river near Fort DUPONT last week
to test the work of the mine planter,
General E. o. e. Ord and the men of
the One Hundred and Thirty ninth
Company, Coast Artillery Corps, who
have been laying mines for the past
month. The event was witnessed by
hundreds of persons from the shore and
by many in boats. The mines were
loaded with 200 pounds of gun cotton
and when exploded threw up columns of
water so feet in diameter and 200 feet
high. On the surface of the water
after the column receded We're hundreds
of dead fish which were quickly
gathered up by fishermen from Della
ware City.

The Outlook For Wheat

Just at this time New Castle County
is concerned over the wheat crop. On
dozens of farms threshers are humming
a steady accompaniment to the putting
of massive engines, and the golden
grain is pouring in steady streams into
the granaries.
While it is always impossible to tell
just wnat the price of wheat will be,
every indication seems to point to
higher prices. 1t would, therefore.
seem the logical and business like thing
to hold wheat. The Transcript does
not wish to take the responsibility of
advising either the sale or retention of
wheat at this time. But it does believe
that the signs point to better prices
later than are offered nov.
In Europe very little wheat was
planted. Wheat fields We're covered
with fighting men and their equipments
and the tillers # the soil were carrying
muskets instesAof following the ploys.
In other place. where wheat was plf
ed, there will only enough for

HICKS FORECAST FOR JULY

The first regular storm period is cen
trail on the 7th, extending over the 5th
to the 9th, inclusive.
The second reactionary storm period
is central on the 18th, 18th and 14th.
This is at the entrance Of a Mercury
period, with the Moon at it's new, or in
conjunction with the Earth and Sun on
the II. AS rule we are to look for
higher temperatures on and abouti the
dates of new Moon, and electrical
storms are more common at such times.
This is espe tally true when the Moon
is on the celestial equator at its con-
junction with Earth and Sun.
The second regular storm period is
central on the 18th, extending from the
10th to the 21st, inclusive. The regu-
lar Vulcan period is about co-ncident
with the center of the Mercury period,
the Moon being on the equator with
Mercury's center on the 18th, and at
first quarter on the 10Th. The very
close conjunction of Venus and Saturn
on the 18th, and the conjunction of
Neptune, Sun and Earth, on the 23d, all
may add perturbing influences on storm
weather and earthquake which may be
easier to note, and more unpleasant to
endure, than it is to fully comprehend
and explain the phenomena. Storms,
in all probability, will be much more
pronounced, from Saturday the 18th to
Tuesday the Goth.
The third re-actionary storm period
is central on the 23d, oath and 25th.
The Moon is in perigee and at greatest
declination south on the 23d
The third regular storm period is cen.
trail on the Both, reaching from the 28th
to Sd. The Vulcan disturbance stands
almost alone at this time. The passage
of the Moon over the celestial equator
on the 29th, will bring crisis of high
temperature, with possibly some rat
Ting thunder storms on and touching
that date. A general fall of the ba-
rometer, warm, south winds, with sum-
mer clustering, and possibly violent,
local winds and rains, need not surprise
readers of these forecasts. These dis
turbances will be in progress as we pass
from July to August.
