FEDERAL BUILDING

Petition For Newark

Representative Thomas w. Mil

bill for a Federal building and
post office at Newark, Delaware.
In the 1918 Public Building bill,
former Representative Heald OBJ
tanned an appropriation by which
a site was purchased at Newark.
The chairman of the committee
will probably bring out a Public
Building bill in. the near future
AS Newark is the only town in the
State in which the Government
has already purchased a site, a
bill for public building in that
town would have the best chances
Of passing. Therefore Represen-
tative Miller has introduced his
bill for Newark rather than for
another town where no site has
already been purchased. One of
the rules of the committee govern

HOGS RUNNING IN ORCHARD
Unless Animals Are Well Hinged They
Will DO Much Damage by Expos
ing Roots Of Trees.

Much is said and written nowadays
concerning the disease and insect
pests affecting the orchard. While
many orchards are quite rapidly ap-
preaching extinction for one cause or
another, there is one cause that Is
seldom mentioned, as it appears to be
generally overlooked. That is the con-
tinual pasturing Of the orchards by
hogs.
Formerly it was the practice OF pro-
fessional fruit growers to allow their
swine free and untrammeled range in
the orchard. In fact, some raised hogs
for this purpose, rather than any pos
sible profit to be derived from pork
production, believing that the roofing
and tearing that the hogs are capable
OF doing would be beneficial in the
way of cultivating and mulching the
trees, and destroying Injurious insects.
However, most of them have discov-
cred that although the, hogs destroy
many harmful insects, the good done
in this way, unless the hogs are we'll
ringed, is many times overbalanced
by the damage done to the trees in
tearing up and exposing the roots to
the weather. The little rootlets arc
very palatable and nutritious and as
good as grain ration. They make a
splendid change OF diet for the hog,
but are rather expensive feed.
The time has come when science
has developed to such an extent that
the hog is no longer needed in orchard
management In this day the posted
fruit grower can o7ercome or at least
largely prevent the ravages of orchard
pests and flies. The time has long ar
rived when there is no money in try
ing to grow fruit without giving par
ticular attention to these features. All
fruit growers, whether specialists or
general farmers, should post them
selves and keep abreast Of the, process
sion They will lose money by getting
behind.

showed that there was . constant sup
ply Of ice In the tank.
(5) A total Of 5,142 pounds OF
cream required approximately 5000
pounds of ice daily, or an average OF
1.16 pounds of ice per pound OF cream
to cool and hold until delivered.
These figures were obtained from
actual conditions and covered period
of six weeks, in which the tempera-
ture outdoors varied from SO to 100
degrees F.
Owing to the different conditions un-
der which ice is handled, the location
of the buildings in reference to protec-
ton and the quantity Of ice packed, 1t
is not surprising to note large varia-
ton in shrinkage. In an examination
of more than 100 farmers icehouses
the shrinkage was found to vary from
20 to SO per cent, with an average OF
q per cent.

An amusing story was told by Mrs.
e. Rennie Of Harrogate in opening a
bazaar at Eccleshill A visitor to a
hospital for soldiers was surprised to
hear one of tho patients being ad-
dressed by the nurses by his Christian
name, it being customary to address
patients by their surnames only. Upon
inquiry as to why this distinction was
accorded to the particular soldier re-
ferred to, the reply received was:
well, we can't very well call him
by his surname"
But why not?" queried the some

answer, Ibis surname 10 Love, and it's

stances each individual may use his

In marking the ice, long plank

The advisability OF cutting square or

Before building an icehouse OF any
