The arrival oil vacation llWe Ii-As
year finds a meagre and unthink'ng
minority advising the American peo-
pie to forego their rest and renewal
that the nation may throw its whole
available strength into the War for
Liberty. This is poor advice. 1t is
not the advice of those who know best
how tremendous is the task the coun-
try faces and how best it may be pros
ecuted with victorious energy. Our
strength must be at par, or at par
plus. An unprecedented task calls
for workers refreshed and rebuilt, for
great physical vigor and mental alert
ness. for the combined effort of a
strong, Jealous and determined peo-
pie.
In the vacation regions the slogan
should be: Business as usual" The
Federal Government itself, speaking
through Secretary Lane, has directed
attention anew to it's national Jarks
and the opportunities they afford for
recreation and health-building. The
government would stimulate rather
than obstruct the peoples enjoyment
of these advantages. The word of the
leaders of our nation is that the weary
should seek their accustomed relief
from toll and that the worn should
recuperate
This nation has acquired world
wide reputation for creative energy
because it's people have jealousy
guarded and steadily increased their
individual power. They are an out
dooor people with the exploring in
stinct and of adventurous habit. They
like the sunlight and the open places,
and they turn each summer to the
mountains, the plains and the great
forests. There they shed their wear
mess, find a new spirit and acquire
a new will to do, gaining firmnesss
of muscle and clarity of thought and
recovering interest in their employ
ment.
An exhausted or sluggish worker is
the most inefficient type of worker
He owes it as much to his country as
to his employer and himself to rebuild
his depleted strength and refreshen
his interest in his labor. The begin
ing of summer finds workers every
where at comparatively low efficiency
but the universal custo moi taking a
short or prolonged rest when the
great outdoors offers its myriad at
fractions has served each year as
tonic to restore efficiency in the high
est degree. Never in their history
have the American people put greater
energy into a years work than since
last vacation time. The next year
will demand even greater effort
Never has there been greater need of
rebuilding. The great army of work
ers, the army behind the fighting
army, must be as fit and as fresh as
IIt
Let the people come again into
communion with Nature and Nature
will imbude them with new willing
ness to face increased responsibilities
and give them strength to achieve
new record for work.
Vacation as always! The Govern
ment invites you to visit its great
Fairgrounds. Get into the mountains
and the woods. There health and in
SEPARATION await you. Do not destroy
your capacity for work by doing
nothing but work. To rest and re-
build for the great work ahead of us
is the policy of sanity.

For the sky-scraper a built up

For factories. especially where the

CERT AIN-TEED makes it by far
the most desirable type of roof. For
garages, out-houses, farm buildings,
the economy, ease of laying and long

CERTAiN-TEED Slate Surfaced
Shingles are artistic, light weight,

CERTAIN-TEED costs less to buy,
less to lay, and less per year OF life:
1t is light weight, clean, sanitary and

rust, and is absolutely weathertight.

condition. Disking of the land
would lessen the labor and seed
ing might be done earlier The
labor necessary for properly COM
pacting the soil after plowing is
often as great as the preparation
without blowing. Where wheat
follows potatoes, tomatoes or
other hoed crops a disking or har-
rowing will fit the soil satisfact-
orily. Green manure crops such
as cow peas and soy beans should
be turned under early enough to
enable the land to be thoroughly
settled be f ore seeding time.
Where wheat follows wheat, oats
or other early harvested crops
plow the land four to six inches
deep as early in the season as
possible and work down each one
half days blowing before leaving
the field. Harrow or disk the field
after every rain or as often as a
crust forms, until seeding timevto
kill the weeds and to retain mois-
ture. This leaves the soil in a con-
dition to germinate the seed

great Importance in getting uni

mulch two or three inches in

How To Increase The
Yield Of Wheat

Wheat requires more careful
soil preparation than most field
crops. The labor required to put
the soil in good condition for seed
ing will depend largely on the
character of the previous crop and
the nature of the soil. Hence, an
important factor in producing sat
isfactory yields of wheat is the
proper rotation of crops. Wheat
should not be grown two years in
succession on the same land if the
best results are to be secured with
all crops in the rotation. 1t is
thoroughly we'll established that
the most profitable yields are Sc
cured through a series of years,
only when some legume is includ-
ed in the rotation. On most Della
ware farms red clover is common
ly grown, while on the lighter,
more sandy types of soil, other
legumes, such as soy beans, cow
peas and crimson clover can be
used to better advantage. These
crops not only increase the mois-
ture holding supply of the soil but
also add largely to the nitrogen
supply.
The proper place for wheat in a
crop rotation depends on local
conditions, but generally in Della
ware it is after corn, potatoes or
some cultivated crop, or after
cowpeas or soy beans. On light
land cowpeas greatly increase the
yield. The largest yields Of high
! quality wheat are more likely to
follow red or crimson clover.
/ Seed bed preparation is one of
| the most expensive items in grow
ing wheat. Flowing may often be
/ omitted and disking substituted
/ Where wheat follows corn it pays
/ to cultivate Thoroughly the corn
! crop keeping the soil mellow and
free from weeds throughout the
summer. When the corn is re,
moved the land should be well
! disked and leveled with a spike
harrow. This leaves a firm seed
bed with a loose mulch on top
Flowing the land after corn is not
necessary unless very weedy and
may be injurious as the soil is left
to loose. The common practice of
blowing land after corn often de.
lays the seeding so much that the
wheat plant does not get sufficient
growth to pass the winter in gooc

1t is requested of these officers
that they see to it that the laws
is observed in all its provisions,
and especially so with reference
to equipment, rate of speed and

STATE FAIR in Gov
EMINENT SERVICE
Hoover Proposes Special De.
partment

The Delaware State Fair, Sep
tember 81, inclusive, is now in the
service of the United States gov
ernment.
In recent statement Herbert
c. Hoover, government food ad-
ministrator, designated the Della
ware State Fair food training
camp, at which all the people in
it's territory can study the prob
lens of food efficiency which he
intends to place before them.
Similar food training camps will
be conducted at practically all the
other large fairs of the country.
at is the intention of the gov
ernment to cooperate with the
agricultural fairs in every way
possible in convincing everyone of
the absolute necessity of produc-
ing more food and wasting less of
it," said Mr.. Hoover recently.
The large fairs offer a wonder
full opportunity of doing this in
an efficient manner, and | am GER
tain that great results will come
from it,
The action taken in naming the
Delaware State Fair as food
training camp is the result of a
conference Of prominent fair Of
ficials from all parts Of the United
States, at which the services of
the larger fairs were rendered to
the government.
Because of the Importance of
this great movement, and the pos
sbilities offered by the food train
ing camps in assisting the govern
ment in its food conservation
work, | believe that the fairs
should organize special bureau
at Washington to cooperate with
amy department and other govern
ments in helping to bring the war
to a successful conclusion" said
Mr.. Hoover at the close of the
conference.
This bureau will be established
at Washington at once, with Ray
P. Speer, publicity manager of the
American Association of Fairs
and EXpositions in charge. The
bureau will work out plans, in CO.
operation with the government, by
which the'great food problems and
their solution can be presented to
the American people in the most
satisfactory, way.
1t is not known definitely what
lines this work will follow. This
remains to be worked out; but if
is probable that series of eX-
hibits and demonstration will be
placed at the different fairs by the
government. A conference is to
be held at Washington on this
matter sometime this week.
This is the first time in history
that the national government has
co-operated with the fairs of the
country in a general way, or has
attempted to make use of them ir
an official way.
