my stead. But the next thought
/ was that would be backing down
and l though to myself, will go
and do the best l can for Sussex.
On October tenth, we all met at
Newark, Delaware, to make up the
four different teams and take the
final instructions.
The vegetable team was compos-
ed of John Clancy from New Cas-
tie, Edd Todd from Kent, and my
self from Sussex.
The girls were all left in Miss
Elizabeth Jefferson's care at the
Women's College and if one could
have seen the attention paid us,
you would have thought us guests
of honor. After eating dinner
with the lady students of the col
lege, each team was taken over to
the main college and given their
final drill in judging and demon
strating before our final lineup in
Massachusetts,, after our work was
completed at the main college.
Professor Hayward enthused us
with a good talk by telling us our
duties as representatives from
delaware.
Mr.. Stanley also gave us a good
talk on what we were to do and
what we would see while on the
"trip. We also had our pictures
taken, visited the College and the
town of Newark in general.
On the eleventh, we left on the
TAI train, arriving in Philadelphia
at II As with a lay-over until after
dinner We were then shown thru
John Wanamaker's store which is
considered the oldest department
store in Philadelphia and which is
one Of the largest in the world.
I'VE then visited Carpenters Hall
where the Declaration of indie
pendence was signed; we then
visited the Library Bell and the
Betsy Ross House where Old Glory
was made and visited Old Christ
Church, in the grave yard of this
church we saw Franklin's tomb.
From here we went to have our
lunch.
After lunch, we Immediately
took the 1.30 train for Springfield,
arriving there at 7.30 p. m. On
alighting from the train, we saw
Professor Carroll with a broad
smile on his face; it made us at
once think of Delaware and we
could not keep back our Delaware
yell, "Rah, Rah, Rah, Delaware,
Cis-poon, tiger-a, Rah, Rah, Rah,
Delaware" which we made ring
from one end to the other of the

nine hundred feet of platform.
Then we went to the home where
we were to spend the night.
Thursday morning, we went
sight seeing in Springfield and saw
many fine buildings with beautiful
towers.
After lunch we went out to the
fair grounds. At the boys and
girls building, one could see some
of the finest vegetables that could
be grown on Mother earth. The
canned goods looked as if they had
just been gathered from the trees
or vines. The girls needle work
was simply wonderful and the boys
and girls chickens were as nice as
one could wish for. The main
livestock building which accom-
modates 1900 of the finest cattle
the world contains; among them
was Sophie, the 10Th, who is valued
at S50,O00.00 and many more of
almost equal value.
On Friday we were taken to the
boys and girls building to COM
pete for the prizes. We were all
Judging and demonstrating at the
same time some forty or fifty teams
and one team could not see what
the other was doing, as each team
was busy trying to do it's best.
While demonstrating we were
viewed by $4,000 spectators.
About four p. m. the prizes were
awarded and you do not know how
Delaware's vegetable team felt
when it was announced that Della
wares team had won third prize.
l enjoyed the trip so much that
l am grateful to Congress for the
appropriation and also thankful to
TALL of those who gave me instruc-
tions to prepare for the trip.

Replanting The Forests

The State of Pennsylvania will
give away 100000 young trees
this winter, in accordance with it's
plan for reforestation of lands in
the State. Of the trees, 100000
are white pine and the rest are
sugar maple, larch and spruce. The
trees are two and three years old
and cannot be obtained for orna-
mental use. Last year 100000
trees were given away.

When Mr.. Pelton, our County
Agricultural Agent, visited our
school the first week of the present
school term and told us of the plan
Congress and the Department of
Agriculture had made to create an
interest in children for farm life,
and of the trip to Springfield,
Massachusetts, for the lucky four
from Sussex, I did wish l could be
one of them. but as they were to
be selected from the whole County
at large, I though one individual
chance was small. But was in
terested in my first years garden
ing and preparing for next years
garden before this one was COM
pleted.
AS soon as Mr.. Pelton told us
that he was going to give free in.
struction to all who wanted to COM
pete for the team, l at once, de-
cided I would become a student
and if not successful in winning
the trip, it would help me to kno'
what good vegetables were when ]
grew them or saw them on the mar
ket.
You can imagine my surprise
when Mr.. Pelton told me he want.
ed me to go to Dover with him to
receive instructions and practice
demonstrating with the boys from
Kent and New Castle, not yet
knowing what the outcome would
be, until we had been to Dover the
third time. When I was told thai
l was selected to represent Sussex
on the vegetable team, I was 60
ing to Massachusetts,. But just as
l was thinking what a nice time
l was to have, the thought came to
me, what am l going to Springfield
for, to represent Sussex County,
the big end of Delaware on a
vegetable team, and judge veget-
ables against teams from Maine,
New Hampshire, Vermont, Mass
achusetts, Rhode Island, Connecti-
cut, Pennsylvania and New Jer-
sey. About this time l almost
