FARM SURVEY
REPORTED
Statistics Compiled For Farm
ers' Benefit

An interesting report of the
survey made several weeks ago of |
65 farms in lower New Castle
county, comprising what is called
the "Middletown Area" by County
Agricultural Agent Levi H. Cooch,
with the assistance of Messrs.
Brown and Keyes from the United
States Department of Agriculture,
has just been submitted by Mr..
Cooch to the government and the
Delaware College Experiment
Station. The survey was made to
ascertain facts relative to farm
and tenant labor, incomes and
many details of value to the farm
ers of the State are contained in
the report.
On most of the 65 farms the re-
port says, the quality of the cows
is inferior, the average receipts
per COW being only S51; nine Of
the best farms showed the aver
age receipts per cattle unit of $83
while only two could show receipts
of S1OO per cattle unit. With i'm
proved stock, or at least a pure
bred bull, a silo and five or ter
acres of alfalfa, the farmers OF
lower New Castle county could in
crease their farm labor incomes
very materially.
Although opinions differ, tn
records taken in southern New
Castle county indicate that
wide diversity of enterprises, with
from two to four main source:
of income, is more profitable tha
specialized farming. Nearly ever!

Fraternity Purchases
Building Lots

The Sigma Phi Epsilon Frater-
nifty has purchased two lots at the
corner of Gillespie avenue and De-
pot Road from d. C. Rose, and it
is understood will build new
fraternity house there. The pur-
chase has been the cause of con-
siderable critical comment, due to
the fact, that it has been request
ed that nothing be done until the
Expansion Plan of the College be
made known. Just whether the
plan will affect in any way the
fraternities is not known. There
is, however, considerable senti-
ment and division of feeling on
the question. The proposed Com
mons on the campus will no doubt
have some bearing on fraternity
regulation by the Board.

NEW GARAGE
ON MAIN STREET
Plan To Complete Building
By August

The new garage, being erected
by A. F. Fader, promises to be one
of the show buildings of the town.
After inspecting several buildings
of this kind Mr.. Fader and the
contractor, George Griffin, have
designed what appears to be an
exceptionally fine structure from
an auto standpoint. The building
will be two stories, of brick and
concrete construction of the fire
proof type. The size will be 55 by
S5 feet. The first floor will have
a main centre entrance with Of
flee and store room on one side,
the other side will be used as
show room.
In the rear of the building will
be the storage room. This has a
decided advantage of being clear
span floor space. An elevator will
lead to the second floor. This floor,
the same as the first floor, will be
of steel and concrete, held by four
3O-inch steel girders weighing
3 l-2 tons each. On this floor will
be the machine and repair shop
and extra storage rooms. The roof
will be of asbestos supported by
3-ton steel trusses.
In order to make every provi-
sion of fire-proof construction.
the steam heating plant will be
installed in a building adjoining
the garage.
Altogether, Mr.. Fader expects
to have a model garage with a ca
pacity of storage for 65 cars, aside
from the business quarters and
machine room. Everything has
been planned to meet the require
ments of the rapidly growing busi-
ness built up by Mr.. Fader.
The exact design of the face of
the building has not been definite
ly decided upon but something at
tractlve is the surprise in store.
The business at present is en-
Joylng its usual boom, fourteen
advance orders for cars being on
the books waiting delivery.
The transfer will be made on or
before August 18th.

CHAPTER TX.
The BAPTISM Of Fire.

The Baptism Of Fire.
All the landscape in front OF Fra
casse's company seemed to have been
deserted; no moving figures were any
where in sight; no sign Of the enemy's
infantry.
Family the town clock was heard
striking the hour. From eight to nine
and nine to ten Fracasse's men wait
ed; waited until the machine was
ready and Westerling should throw In
the clutch; waited until the troops
were in place for the first move before
he hurled his battalions forward.
They did not know how the captain at
their back received his orders; they
only heard the note Of the whistle,
with q command familiar to trained
instinct on the edge of anticipation. IL
released a spring in their nerve-cen-
ters. They responded as the wheels
respond when the throttle is opened.
Jumping to their feet they broke INTO
run, bodies bent, heads down, like
the peppered silhouette that faced
Westerling's desk What they had
done repeatedly in drills and maneu-
chanically as marionettes.
Come on! The bullet is not made
that can get me. Come on" cried the
giant Eugene Aronson.
Nearly all felt the exhilaration of
movement in company. Then came
the sound that generations had drilled
for without hearing; the sound that
l.. to-, .,F v1,1 n
the thought of how he Will feel and
act when he hears it; the sound that
is everywhere like the song snatches
of bees driven whizzing through the
air.

every brain.
There was no sign Of the enemy:
no telling where the bullets came
from
Whish- whish! Th-ipp-whing! The
refrain gripped Peterkin's imagination
with an unseen hand. He seemed to
be suffocating. He wanted to throw
himself down and hold his hands in
front of his head. While PilZer and
Aronson were not thinking, only run
ming, Peterkin was thinking with the
rapidity of man falling from high
building. He was certain only that
he was bound to strike ground.

recollected the captains teaching.
