SUNSHINE AS YOU GO
John VI. Baker.

The world has need of sunshine as
you go.
For we often see the tears Of sorrow
flow;
You can haste that coming day
When they will all be wiped away.
If you scatter blessed sunshine as
you go.
You can labor for the Master as
you go.
Plant the precious seed and He will
bid it grow;
Toiling on whater betide
With the Saviour by your side.
You can scatter blessed sunshine as
you go.
You will meet with many trials as
you go,
There will be some self-denials here
below;
But keep looking still above
And remember God is love.
While you scatter blessed sunshine as
you go.
Some day when life is over here below
And the Master calls for you and yol
must go,
Ever faithful, kind and true.
May He say we'll done to you,
Then scatter blessed sunshine al
you go.

BOYS PROGRESS IN
CULTURE OF CORN
Kent CountianS Produce
Crops Averaging 81
Bushels An Acre
LAD GETS 81
BUSHELS TO ACRE

According to the report Of NJ. o.
Pierce, Kent county agricultural agent,
John Cahall, aged II years, grew the
largest crop of corn, his plot yielding 81
bushels per acre. Dewey Sapp made the
second largest yield and made the
largest profit His yield was 1876 bush
els per acre. The agents report fol

"Ihe first years work in the Boys
and Girls Agricultural Clubs of Kent
county has been completed, and people
interested in il want TO know the re-
suits. In the county 80 boys started in
the Corn Club in 1915, and Is girls in
the Canning Club. lnree of the latter
also grew gardens Of l20th OF an acre
vegetables. Eighteen of the 80 boys
who started made their reports in full
and this is above the average percent
age finishing the work in other places.
When we consider the work as new and
the season as one of the most unfavor-
able for corn ever known in. Delaware,
what our boys have done is all the
more remarkable.
'What are the results of the Garden
Club work. The average gross return
of the three gardens of one-twentieth
acre each was 1856, and the average net
profit. after deducting all cost of labor,
fertilizer, and seed. was over 50 per gar
den This would make the net value of
the home garden worth $40 per acre, and
this was possible with ordinary vege-
tables with a heavy clay loan poorly
adapted to trucking. Most of these
garden crops were used at home, but
any surplus over was canned. following
the instructions given in the canning
schools previously mentioned. While
the Garden Club members did not make
a profit, probably the greatest value

Our Tom." has been fighting hard
before the Rivers and Harbors Com
mittoe" Of Congress for the rivers
and harbors Of Delaware.
The Rivers and Harbors Committee
are constantly demanding that he
furnish proof that Delawares creeks
and rivers are used for navigation
they ask How much shipping does
each river carry?" How much
freight or tonnage is carried into or
out of each stream yearly?"
Despite every effort our Congress
man IS unable 20 get statistics to pro-
duce before his committee. owing to
the fact that the ship owners and
captains fail to keep account of the
amount OF freight handled.
Mr.. Miller is working for the in
terests Of all the people of Delaware,
regardless of politics. He wants
proper appropriations given Della
ware for use in dredging and keep
ing the channels clear in all Of it's
creeks, canals and waterways.
Unless the shippers, the captains
of all boats and the boat owners CO.
