WARTIME RATION
PLAN FOR SUGAR
Continued from First page

vania Company, when the beet-sngar
crop begins to come on the market.
THE beet-sugar crop will help TO re-
lleve the scarcity here, but not to any
great extent because that source Of
supply will be needed to satisfy the de-
mands Of the West The West, you
know, has been shut off from sugar
shipments from the eastern and gulf re-
fners. The Louisiana cane crop has
been the poorest in years and will have
little effect on the general situation"
Under the wartime rationing system
candy manufacturers and confectiOners
viii receive only 80 per cent Of their
normal supplies. Bakers probably will
be reduced TO 20 per cent. and other
less essential users of sugar proper
tionately.
The success of the wartime distribu-
ton will depend largely upon the
householders' willingness to play fair
and not try 10 buy more sugar than
they are entitled to.
Hoarding tactics on the part of some
housewives have already been reported
by many retailers. Last Saturday a
woman purchased supplies OF her
grocer and at the end asked for her
one-pound dole Of sugar.
But, madam, you bought sugar here
yesterday" the grocer said.
"Oh, but you must be mistaken in
saying thatI bought sugar yesterday" !"
the woman said
~ am sorry to contradict you" the
grocer went on, but l know you
bought sugar here yesterday. You
can't have any today"
Managers Of chain stores report that
certain OF their customers visit differ
ent branch stores in turn and try to
buy sugar at each. Unler the ration
ing system retailers probably will sell
sugar only TO their known patrons and
keep check on them to see that none
gets more than his share. That plan
wotRed Well during the war, the deal
ers say.

SEAFORD, Oct. i3-By the time the
+sweet potato chop isNlug in this section
there will be stored in the potato
houses belonging to the brokers, about
10000 baskets, representing an outlay
Of about $4,000. The crop is about
half dug at present, but the farmers
are getting the potatoes out Of Che
ground in quick time now and expect
to finish digging by October %. The
crop has been a fair one up TO the
present.
Prime sweets are bringing co cents
per basket and culls 30 cents per bas-
ket The crop is averaging around POO
bushels TO the acre. one Seaford firm
alone VIII have close 10 $1,000 baskets in
their houses by the time the digging is
over. AT GO cents per basket the farm
are making money. 10 has only been a
few years ago when prime sweet pota-
toes only brought % cents per basket.
Apples is another crop on which the
farmers have made money. One Of the
reasons for the big prices paid for ap-
pies is that so many of them have been
canned this year.
The tomato crop was a failure and
many OF the Gamers having large stocks
of cans on hand with which they had
intended TO use for tomatoes bought
apples and canned them.
Josehp Morgan, of Blades, a carpen-
ter, employed, on the Seaford-Bridge-
VILE state Highway, was seriously in

Hearn's mill, where the Stale road con-

ldazzled the fans. Every substitute that
Penn used seemed TO be just a little
better than the previous man.
Delaware's line fought hard and
showed It's gameness until the end.
Penn did not go through on every play
by any means Delaware would often
hold their opponents for two or three
downs without any material gains.
but penn would then charge and make
It's nrst down either by an end run or
forward pass. The right side OF The
Bule and Gold line was notably the
strongest, while Penn made great holes
through the left end Of The line. Penn
often got numerous long forward passes
that It seemed should have been stop
ped. hut the Delaware men allowed the
Penn ends to get away from them.
Another play that Penn always seemed
10 be able TO work successfully was a
snappy short forward pass directly
over the heads OF the linesmen. and a
double pass.
Except for couple Of times. Della
ware failed in her forward passes.
There did not seem to he enough snap
to the passes and several Of Penn's
touchdowns were the result Of Penn
men catching Delaware's passes and
.romping over the goal line with the
ball
Dehware's most substantial gains
were made in the last half. Harry
Loose whose playing stood out as
about the best among the Delaware
backs, sklrted Penns end for a thirty
yard run. Loose was also one Della
ware back who several times was able
10 make few yards gain through
Penns line. but never sufficient for
first down. A long pass, McCaughan TO
Gray Carter. in the last quarter gave
Delaware the ball on Penns 2s yard
line which was the nearest the Blue
and Gold got to their opponents goal.
Tonkln's defensive work was one OF
the features OF the game from the
Delaware standpoint. The little quar-
ter back was in most every play and
repeatedly downed Penn runners with
hard low tackles. Tonkn and Nc
Caughan were injured but not serious
