The bungalow situation in North
Wildwood continues to improve each
weak and the families who have been
fortunate enough to obtain a home are
now congratulating themselves because
of the fact that houses built last fall
are today worth 500 or more purely
on the rise of the prices of lumber in
the meantime. The cold wet weather
has retarded things somewhat in the
building line; the gardens have suffer
ed considerably on account of the cold
and wet.
Last week aud this week fishing
almost came to a staodstill owing to
the heavy weather keeping the fishing
boats from going out and as a conse-
quence mackerel were bringing 75c to
a 81 apiece at the wharf and were
scarce at that. Curtis Mathes, one of
our Anglesea fishermen, was home
Sunday and stated that the shad fish
ing season down around Bayside had
been unusually poor this spring, many
of the fishermen having gone broke on
their venture. Last season Curtis
Mathes was the second high boat in
Della ware Bay in shad fishing while
this season he reports he has done very
little.
