Big Strawberry
Crop Anticipated

Strawberry growers of Southern
Delaware are anticipating a bum
per crop. The demand for crates
and carriers has been so great
that many factories have announc-
ed that they have contracted for
more than they can possibly de-
liver before the opening of the
berry season.
Many farmers, looking into the
future, bought crates late in the
autumn and stored them in their
packing houses. These men are
now smiling, as the prices at which
the crates and baskets are selling
at present are 25 per cent. greater
than they were in the fall. The
question of help to pick the berries
is causing much serious thought
to the farmers.

Guards Stationed
At State House

Because of rumors, supposed to

prominent citizens of Dover took
up the matter of protecting the
State House and other state prop
erty from any possible damage by
foreign foe, with Captain John
P. LeFevre, of Company G., of this
city, and also with Governor Town
send. Late Saturday night the

ham, resulting in the stationing of

day night and today, and the
orders will be to remain on duty
until otherwise ordered away.
The sight of soldiers patroling
the state and federal property was
new thing to many of Dover's
present generation.

morals and half the states have
condemned?"
