HAVE WE TOO MUCH MONEY?

The monthly circulation statement
shows that cash is being injected into
the currents of trade, although there is
no good work for it to do in such surplus
amounts, There was gold enough last
year, but in June there was in crcula-
tion 81, ,676, 900, 900, against last year
81. 649, 900, ,000 The banks have no need
of the unusual amounts in circulation,
and people are carrying more in their
pockets than is their custom. This year
there are out $50, Sol. 900 of Federal re-
serve notes, although last year there
were none, and this year there is no
greater mead of them. This year there
are afloat national bank notes to the
total of $786, ,643, CAT, although last year
the country got along very well with
$7l8, OBS, ,637, for a larger business.
There are other minor changes, and, in
total, the currency now in circulation is
So, ,585, 14O, 626, against So, 419, 1853, 1868, in
June last year. That works out at
1.06 more apiece than last year and
several dollars apiece more than in the
boom times of 1906.
This country has never learned how to
get rid of unnecessary circulation. In
fact, there is more money in circulation
now than ever before, although the
needs of trade are less than in several
other years.

DeveIOpe a Home Nine

Early in the season The Transcript
suggested that the Junior and the
Senior mines play practice games, and
we are pleased to know that this sug-
gestion though a triAe late, is now to
be acted upon.
The thing to have done at the start
was to get home nine by trying out
the home material which we are assured
is abundant, and which if this had been
done at the start would have by this
time developed into good home nine,
able to do at least as well as these paid
outsiders have done for they have lost
five straight games.
Moreover, the patrons of baseball here
as elsewhere take more interest in the
game when the contestants are their
own home athletes.
Certain it is, if Middletown does not
begin it will never get a home nine,
and the way to commence is to begin

PEACH CROP BIGGEST in YEARS

Railroads tapping the great peach
section of Western Maryland expect to
handle the biggest crop in years this
season, and it is believed that good
prices will be received for the fruit.
The Western Maryland Railroad Co.,
which traverses a large part of the
peach country, expects to haul approx
mately 2,700 cars this summer, as com
pared with something like l, 100 cars
tire previous season.
The peach orchards are said to be in
exceptionally good condition and the
yield promises to be large. The fruit
will also be of good quality.
The large orchards in Western Mary
land will be inspected by the members
of the Maryland State Horticultural
Society, who will hold their summer
meeting at Pen-Mar Park on the 29th
instant. Letters have been sent to
many horticulturists to attend and ac-
company the Maryland fruit men on
their visit to the orchards. The idea in
making this inspection is to draw at
tention to the possibilities of further
development of peach culture in the
State.

AUTOS FOR RURAL DELIVERY

The Postoffie Department has been
authorized to employ automobiles on
rural free delivery routes, and on the
second of August about hundred such
vehicles will be put into commission.
Postmaster General Burleson has Just
made the allotment of this service-and
the geographical distribution of these
national buzz-wagons is interesting, to
say the least. Forty-four of them will
whiz over the practorian pavements of
the Imperial State of Oklahoma; twenty
eight of them will toll through the sandy
lanes of peerless Georgia; as a reward
for electing a Democratic Senator Cai-
foria will get nineteen of these Govern
ment benzine buggies. Mr.. Burleson's S
own State of Texas will have eight;
Louisiana will have one. The great
state of Pennsylvania gets two-located,
for a guess, in A. Mitchell Palmer dis
trict. New York will have none, be-
tion in general does not like New York
just now. But the significant thing is
that Southern Postmaster General
proceeds tc put abut eighty per cent of
these machines into three Southern
States. This experiment with automo-
biles in rural free delivery was intended
by Congress to be national in its scope,
The Postmaster General intends to
make it sectional. However, this is a
sectional Administration

WAS IT TELEPATHY :?

The very day some weeks ago the
Scribe was expressing a wish that the
town, or some public spirited citizen,
would, pro bono publico, replace upon
the town stand pipe the greatly missed
weather vane, Mr.. Thomas Roberts
was already placing aSweather cock,
on the site of the old one!
Was it telepathy-d distant mind read
ing or something of the sort?
But when some one said to us,
there's weather vane there now"
we couldn't see it" aud said so. Now
however, we find that it is even so,
lively little Jump-about-with every
wind does adorn the stand pipe-but
like Paddy's alarm clock that he had to
wake up and pull before it would 'go
off, this nice, tiny vane is visible only
when you go to Lake street to look at
it.
But we don't blame Mr.. Roberts, he
tried to get the people of the town to
help pay for big vane, but could not
raise one dollar! So he very properly
put up a vane which those in the imme-
diate vicinity can see.
The town needs a big vane, and The
Transcript is half minded to start a
subscription to pay it. Shall it do so?

$4,000 in PRIZES

The Executive Committee of the
Peninsula Horticultural Society met in
Easton, Md, to make preliminary ar
rangements for the meeting and big
exhibition which will be held there next
January. The prizes offered will amount
to about $1,000, $500 in the general and
$500 to the exhibitors of fruit who have
not been winning first premiums. This
will be called the amateur class. There
are five prizes for the general display
amounting to $500, 1875 for boxed
apples, more than $10O for apples in
barrels; $lOO for plates and so. on down
the list. More than 5000 will be award
ed for the vegetable exhibit. This
promises to be the largest and best ex-
hibit of fruits and vegetables ever held
on the Peninsula. Those who will com
pete should notify the Secretary, Wesley
Webb, Dover, Del, at an early date, in
order that full preparations may be
made for the exhibition. The premium
lists will be printed for distribution in a
short time, and may be had upon appli-
cation to the Secretary.

AN EXHIBITION OF STRENGTH

A travelling faker with an unmistake-
able German brogue, who said he hailed
from Switzerland, gave an interesting
exhibition of strength and sold his yari-
GUS gimcracks, puzzles, etc, IN Cochran
Square, on Wednesday night.
He was a small man, weighing, he
said, 14O pounds, and among other
amazing performahces drove 40 inch
spike through two inch plank with one
blow of his hand, only using a kerchief
to protect the palm from the nail head;
bent huge 60 penny spike with his
hands into hair pm shape and then with
one hand brought both ends together;
tore a pack of playing cards into, two
pieces and then tore all the pieces in
twain, and then once more tore the
whole mass asunder; burst big chain
over his chest and then with his hands
tore the big links apart and threw the
pieces around for souvenirs You would
have thought the big chain was made
of pasteboard instead of good steele!
He also lay on the ground and pushed
MIR. Elmer Vineyard, who weighs 1874
pounds, up to arms length with one
hand.
The muscular development of his
trunk and arms was wonderful His
right biceps when he fiexed the arm,
look as though it had baseball inside,
and his triceps, deltoids, pectorals, and
forearm muscles We're also finely de-
veloped, while his back looked like a
map of his native Switzerland, with its
succession of muscle hillocks, ridges and
valleys
He sold two puzzles, the links and the
keys, the one, lawful simple" and the
other, 'simply awful, he said, and
those who have sweated over the thing
are quite willing to agree with him.

CHAMBER COMMERCE
Sends its Automobile Boosters to
Visit MiddletOwn
FLAGS FEASTS AND SPEECHES

Middletown broke out its flags and
assembled in Cochran Square a goodly
number of it's folk to welcome the Will
mington Chamber of Commerce boos-
ters who filing two dozen automobiles,
on Thursday about noon entered the
town amid the deafening blares, honks,
and toots of auto horns.
Sixty-five of the visitors delightfully."-
frightened their surcingles at the "White
Cafe" and the rest fed well at the two
hotels. Thereafter a reception was
held in Cochran Square.
DIR. E. G. Clark, president of the
Town Board, made the address of well
come to which Mr. William P. White,
on behalf of the Chamber of Commerce
responded, the key note of his speech
being as follows:
1--WE want the people and the mer-
chants to purchase what they can in
their own town, but if unable to get it
here, Wilmington will do its best to
supply your wants. We want your
wholesale trade also, ;" said Mr.. White.
He said that the party appreciated
and was gratified at the cordial re-
ception given them. He spoke of the
great dinner they had enjoyed and OF
the pretty girls they had feasted their
eyes upon.
This telling Middletown about its
handsome lassies is no news here, but it
is gratifying to find outsiders also dis
covering this patent fact.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Whites
remarks, Mr.. J. F. Deakyne made an
address which greatly pleased and
amused his auditory. Mr. Deakyne
dwelt upon the advantages and duty of
home dealing" both in the various
tows and villages, and also in the state
and at Wilmington, instead of going,
and sending by mail, to other states.
A similar reception was given the
Chamber of Commerce boosters at
Odessa, where Messrs. Daniel w.
Corbit, George L. Townsend and
Cashier Joseph G. Brown of the Odessa
Bank, welcomed the visitors.
In conversation with the visitors Mr..
Corbit said:
owe consider ourselves a suburb of
Wilmington" he said. Good roads
place US but mile by automobile from
Wilmington, and if Wilmington business
men will give us a wharf we will have
the steamer Clio to stop there with
business that now goes to Philadelphia.
1t is up to Wilmington to get busy"
Like visits were made thoughout the
state in a wide tourney that embraced
the leading towns in the county and in
adjacent parts in Maryland.

"CHILDREN'S DAY" AT FAIR

School Children's Day, Tuesday,
September Z, will be an event of great
Importance at the Delaware State Fair
For number of years the children
have been provided with tickets of ad-
mission, but there has always been con-
fusion at the last minute arising from
Misunderstanding or loss.
This year the association adopted the
plan of making newspaper announce
ments as well as announcements through
the teacher No tickets will be required
but special gate on Woodland avenue
will be opened through which children
only will be admitted All of the free
attractions have been chosen with the
entertainment of the children in mind,
and the carnival shows will all be of an
entertaining'character. School children
will have an opportunity to see the work
of other children. and compare it with
their own.
Mrs. Frederick C. Snyder will receive
entries and inquiries until August 2l.
1t is expected that the competition will
be very large this year, as the prizes
are all very good and the gold medal
offered by Mrs. Alfred l. DUPONT for the
child winning the largest number Of
blue ribbons in the sewing section is
very handsome. No former winner of
Mrs. duPont's medal can compete for
this one. Any child who is interested
is requested to send his name and ad-
dress to the secretary, Delaware State
Fair, Wilmington, and premium list
and entry blanks will be forwarded at
once.

TEMPERATURE OF l2O DEGREES

Yuma, down at the southwestern
corner of Arizona, has for long held the
distinction of being the highest average
hot place in the United States. The
summer temperature quite frequently
scores 120 degrees in the shade at Yuma,
and yet the people who live there are
proud of their climate. The Yumaities
say you never mind when you are in
Yuma rise in temperature that would
knock you out in Maryland, because the
Arizona air is so dry. Down along the
boundary line between Texas and Mex
leo the July temperatures are often
sizzling, bnt so also are they sometimes
along the boundary line that separates
from Canada. In fact, when it does
warm up in the far north it warns up
with vengeance. Even up in Middle
Alaska, where rolls the Yukon, ninety
seven in the shade is no unusual thing
in July. AMI along the eastern coast
of the United States the Weather Bu-
reau reports extending back through a
long period show that it is often cooler
during July in Savannah than in Boston
and that the summer temperature of
New York frequently ranges degree
or two above the Maryland temperature
We know by experience that hot waves,
like cold waves, flow in paths that
range from fifty to 500 miles wide.
Sometimes Maryland is just beyond the
fringe of hot wave in summer just as
it escapes the sweep of some of the
winter blizzards. And upon other oc-
casions we are right in the middle
sweep of sizzling temperature that
come up from the Gulf of Mexico or
from some other boiling pot.
