VICTORY GARDENS
Secretary Mayer Says There
Will Be More of These
Kind than War Gardens

"There will be as many Victory
Gardens in Mt. Vernon this year as
there were War Gardens in the city
last year." remarked Secretary Le-
roy G. Mayer of the Chamber of Com

Judging from the number of in

garden purposes"

PAUL PRY'S GLENDALE
LETTER.

The report that while the train was
passing through Glendale last Friday a
child was run over, is all false and the
people of this vicinity cannot understand
how such a report was ever started.
We have been asked several times 70
give an account OF the quality OF the
products made al the large preserving
plant, known as the Ritter Tomato Prod
ucts. As this class Of goods Is only sold
through the jobbers. our people know but
little about IL. We have been so FORUM
ate as to secure a sample and for the
benefit Of those inquirers will say that it
is the most delicious table sauce we have
ever seen come from tomatoes.
Saturday was Farmers Day and the
State Board Of Agriculture, led by Prof
Wesley Webb, arranged hne farmers
meeting, when many farmers gave elO-
quent addresses in the afternoon. After
singing by the school girls, Mr. BlackfOrd
OF Ohio held his audience spellbound by
his splendid Oratory which consumed the
remainder Of the afternoon
Someone has surely sprung a joker on
US by sending a bill to the Legislature
obligating Glendale to raise $4,000 for
street improvements. We are told this is
to provide n fire fighting outfit and light
ing plant, such as are enjoyed by city
people. Where is the water supply to
come from unless from the Glendale
swamps? Or will we have an up-to-date
standpipe? The most important Ques-
ton is: where is the money coming from,
for there are no wealthy inhabitants in
Ellendale to help finance such an under
taking.
We are happy to announce the recovery
of our unfortunate patients, as Rev. Bar
rett is much improved and Squire Ellie
good is out, but reports that his son, DR..
Bob Ellegood, president Of the Wilmington

ANNOUNCEMENT COMING
ON MINIMUM PRICE FOR
HOGS AND ON EXPORTS

Washington, Feb. 26.-An an
nouncemcnt regarding the food ad-
ministrations attitude on minimum
hog prices for March will be made
after 5 O'Clock p, m. today by
Frank S. Snyder, chief OF the meat
division, without a meeting OF the
hog committee.
Decision as to whether the maxi
mum price policy shall continue
will be made after a conference be-
tween Mr.. Snyder and officials
of the war trade board and will de-
pend upon whether the board lifts
restrictions on the expectation OF
pork to the neutrals and to the ma
tonS opened to commerce by open
ing the Dardancllcs and the Black
Sea ports and the lifting OF the
blockade OF the eastern Mediter-
ranean, reported from Paris yes
terday
Lifting of the pork export ban,
food administration officials pre-
dicted, probably would mean aban-
donment of the price agreement
policy putting hogs on a free mark
ct basis after the present minimum
price of $l7.50 a hundred pounds
expires Friday at midnight.
