Coleman duPonts offer to allow the
State the use OF the strips OF land
bordering along the dupont Boulevard
for the entire length of that highway
IN Sussex county, where the right OF
way has been secured, to be used for
farm demonstration purposes, is be-
ing highly commended by many mem
bers OF the Legislature. and promi-
nent citizens throughout tho State.
The offer from General du-
Pont, which he made by telegram
through Governor John G. Townsend,
Jr., was read in both Houses Of the
Legislature yesterday, and was APP
plauded.
There has been talk for some time
OF establishing Demonstration Farms
I'm both Kent and Sussex counties, un-
der the supervision of the State Board
OF Agriculture, the Delaware College
Experiment Station ana tho County
Agents and the offer OF General
duPont's comes at an opportune time.
Governor Townsend, who was
spoken to about the matter yesterday
afternoon. stated that il appealed q
him as an excellent o1er. Governor
Townsend's home is in Selbyyille, and
he is naturally we'll informed on con.
ditions along the boulevard, which
passes through SelbyVille. He stated
that every kind of soil that there is in
Sussex county can be found al0ng
the 30-mile stretch Of the boulevard
and, consequently. any demonstration
or experiment that could be made in
any part OF the county. can be carried
on some place along the DUPONT
Boulevard.

Senator Newton, of Bridgeville, who
is q member of the State Board OF
Agriculture, is also much enthused
over the offer Of General dupont He
corroborated the statement of Gov
ernOr Townsend, as TO the different
kinds OF soil that can be found along
the boulevard. Senator Newton thinks
that the offer viii not only save the

cost, but it would be an ideal way to
carry out scientific farm demonstra-

plots would be right along this great
public highway, where thousands OF
travellers, going along the road, would
see them, and, consequently. it would
be a great advertisement to the en-
tire state and Sussex county, in par
ticular.
Some magnitude Of the offer can be
gained from the fact it would give tbs
State so feet on each side Of the boule'
ward for a stretch of 30 miles for dem
onstration work. While no plans have
