The worst thing, the most fatal

with the distribution of goods by the

There are many things that ought

other things even more far-reaching.

plumbing inspector at that time
inspected and approved the con-
nection according to law. Dis
elimination could not be made in
the recent case, the Board men,
bers stated, since no ordinance
covering the matter has since been
made.
The primary purpose of the
place as stated by Mr.. Platt and
Mr.. Cohen who have charge of the
building is for the slaughter Of
animals according 20 the Jewish
ritual under the direction of a
Rabbi. All of the meat is shipped
out of town. The slaughtering is
done at irregular intervals, having
taken place twice since the sewer
connection was made. No provi-
sion is made for the manufacture
of any by-products, according to a
statement made by Mr.. Curtis this
morning.
In an interview with Mr.. J. P.
Wright relative to his signed state
ment of last week to the effect that
the regulations governing the op-
Grafton of the Sewer System ex-
plicitly prohibits slaughter houses
from connecting with the sewer,
he stated that the article previous
ly referred to expressly prohibits
such action.
With regard to the expressed in
tention of using legal means to
prevent the sewer system from be-
ing ruined, he stated that such &C
tion would be taken but that he
was not at liberty to give further
details.

Tours, Harve, Paris, Toule, and
Dion and Dean Hayward will be
located in one of these cities. His
work will consist of making a sur
vey of all the camps in his parti-
cular region, finding the names
and number of men who wish to
study Agriculture, selecting in
structors from the Army itself,
assisting in training them, and
helping them organize the classes
for study. He will also assist the
subject matter specialists who ac-
company him to find equipment
suitable for the work undertaken,
About a thousand men are going
over to assist in the work. A num-
ber of these men are high class
specialists in their respective sub
jects. Such men as DR.. Fletcher
of Pennsylvania State College will
have charge of all the work in
Horticulture and kindred subjects.
DR.. Mccall of the Maryland Agri.
cultural College will direct in sub
jects pertaining to Soils and
Crops. Professor c. S. Plumb of
the University of Ohio and who
perhaps is the best known instruc-
tor in Animal Husbandry will give
his time to directing the work in
that particular branch of Agricul-
ture; and others of equal rank will
assist in making the work a sue
cess.
1t is not known as yet whether
this work will count for credit in
our Agricultural Colleges or not
but it is hoped that where the in
struction is of college grade and
where the men are taken from our
colleges and universities, it will be
counted toward their degree when
they return home.
Dean Hayward brings to his
new work a wealth of successful
experience along educational and
agricultural lines. A graduate of
Cornell, he has been associated in
agricultural work with the state
colleges of Pennsylvania and New
Hampshire and with the Dairy Di-
vision of thc y. s. Department of
agriculture. He was also director
and organizer Of the Department
of Agriculture at Mt. Hermon
School for Boys. He came to Della
\ ware in the fall of 1906 and has
} made the Experimental Farm one
of the best in the country and
probably the only one which makes
expenses. He has been untiring in
his efforts to improve agriculture
and education throughout the
state.
He has been granted by the
trustees of Delaware College a
years leave of absence without
pay.
The Newark Grange, his Sunday
School class and various organiza-
tions of which he is a popular
member have given numerous af-
fairs in his honor during the past
