FRUIT OUTLOOK REPORT GOOD.
Apple and Peach Trees in Prime Con-
ditiOn and Growers Have Hopes.

Apple and Peach Trees in Prime Con-
dtiOn and Growers Have Hopes.
It has always been said when
mild winter has been experienced a
short crop of fruit is to be expected,
but with the spraying season at hand,
which gives the farmers an excellent
opportunity to survey their fruit trees,
they report that never were trees so
full of buds and never in such fine
condition as now to bear bumper
crop of fruit. Unless something like
a heavy hailstorm or a frost comes to
Kill the buds, the farmers are eX-
pecting good profits from their crops.
The peach trees are so full of buds
that the "drop," which usually comes
IN June, will be a great benefit, and
the trees will produce much larger
and better fruit. For two years some
farmers in lower Delaware have been
having good crops of peaches, while
other orchards have been hurt; but
they have been unable to secure gooC
market prices, and therefore they
have lost, due to expense of labor. TC
have good crop it is necessary tt
spray at least three times. A few
farms in this section have gone int
the apple raising business and it il
found to be profitable, and the con
ditiOns for a good crop was never see1
to be better than at present.

PHILADELPHIA AUTO PIKE.
Work to Begin Stretch Soon, ShellpOt

According to statements of State
Highway Engineer Upham, the new
highway along the Philadelphia Pike
will be completed by July, unless the
work is obstructed by something un-
torseen. Filling in of Penny Hill to
bring it up to the new grade at the
southern end, and the cutting down
OF the grade at the upper end are now
going on, and as soon as the built
concrete foundation and the brick sur
up roadway settles the laying of a
face will begin. The contractors esti-
mate that it will take them until July
to finish the work properly. The road
will be opened to traffic in Nav or
June, it is expected. About thirty
property owners along the pike as yet
have failed to grant the right of way
to widen the road as proposed. Many
OF them are represented by George
Lodge as counsel. AS yet the High
way Commission has been unable to
reach an agreement with them for the
strip of land needed to widen the
right of way. Work is expected tC

Farmers Want to Know Corn Cost.


"What is the Cost of Producing
Sugar Corn" is the subject under dis
cussiOn at a series of meetings of the
New Castle County Sugar Corn Grow
ers' Association at Newark. This as
sociation comprises the sugar corn
growers of MiddletOwn, Townsend,
Odessa and Mt. Pleasant communities.
The executive committee, composed of
a representative from each COM
munity, is the governing body and
will transact all business for the as
sociatiOn, including negotiations with
the officials of the Gamers, relative to
the price Of sugar corn for the COM
ing year. The executive committee is
responsible to and will report to the
association at stated intervals. Fig
ures on the cost of producing sugar
corn have been submitted by repre-
sentative growers from each of the
communities, and is an interesting
fact that the variation in these fig
ures has been negligible. At the
writing of this article there seems tC
be a considerable differential between
the price at which the growers fee
that they can produce sugar corn anC
that offered by the Gamers.

Dreams will at times reveal to us
how little we have forgotten; but the
value of dreams as key to remem-
brance is distorted and diminished by
what seems their lack of selection.
They blend the past with the present,

hopeless medley.
At their best our dreams seem fan

One does not have to assert the pop
Ing of fashions. In America it goes
without saying, for the suit is always
the backbone of the American wom
ans outfit, for every season of the
year. 1t fits in with her manner of
life. If our devotion to the tailored
suit needed any sustaining it would
not lack it; for Paris has pronounced
its approval of our favorite and set
about to show what France can do in
the production of smart models. We
are glad to study these examples of
the genius of the French and confident
that, in this particular field, American
models will never suffer by compari-
son. They are more likely to excel
over their competitors. But we can
not have all the good ideas and we
will profit by the eXhaustless ingenu-
ity of the French.
Two handsome and practical "made
in America" suits for the coming win
ter season invite the consideration of
those who give the study of styles in
suits the attention it deserves. The
tailored suit more, than anything else
needs to be carefully selected. There
are few new phases of the mode to

hands Of the rancher. The struggle
ended almost as soon as it began.
But some sound of the brief scuff1e
must have penetrated to the other side
of the oak door. Before the rest of
the vaqueros could crowd into the lit
tie room the door had been jerked
open, dark, bearded face showed at
the crack.
There was snarled curse, the door
slammed shut, and there was the sound
Of other bars lifted across 1t upon the

"YOur axesl" shouted Stairway,
leaping to one side to make room,
'Vidal, you take one. Get it down,

But, even to the attack of the great
arms Of Vidal and another of the cow
boys, the great thick door stood defiant
as the swift seconds fed by. From
the other side came the sound of quick,
swapping voices, of scurrying feet, the
sound Of cry which tingled through
Stanway's blood and sent Vidal with
redoubled vigor to the onslaught on
the door.
At last the door fell. Stairway and
Vidal, side by side, leaped through.
There was another hall, wider than
the first, shorter. At the end of the
hall another door, studded with nails,
barred upon the farther side.
Evidently there had been a second
guard here, evidently in the next room
were the prisoners.

Vidal, his deep chest painting from his
herculean labor, AK still grlpped in an
enormous hand, came after him, his
fellows crOwdIng after them.
A large room this time, some thirty
feet square, furnished well; blankets,
scattered morsels of bread and meat,
showing that here Torres men had
been. A glance showed that the room
was empty Of human occupants; Sec

to the wall, limp and inert, red stain
upon his breast.
Stairway ran to him, stopped, stood
straight with little grunt Of satisfac-
ton. 1t was not any one of the De la
Guerra household.
"Shot accidentally by one Of his fel-
lows" he muttered. "Or else De Ia

A door at the far side of the room
stood open; candle still burned
brightly upon little stand. There
had been no time lost In leaving.

In toilet preparations our grand
mothers made many things for them
selves of the harmless and homely in
gradients they had ut hand. Some of
these old recipes have been preserved
and have proven their worth In per-
forming the work they are intended
for. Besides being less expensive than
the lotions and creams bought in the
shops one has the satisfaction of know
ing just what Is in them. For the com
pleXion and for the hair these home
made preparations probably have tonic
and healing qualities ms effective as
the manufactured articles. At least
they will answer the purpose for
women who feel that money spent for
toilet preparations Is an extravaganza
for them. Here is the old fashioned
and reliable formula for treatment of
Il dry skin.
When the skin is dry and harsh II
should be washed only once day in
warm water. using pure. bland soap,
and rinsed In cold water. This is done
in the morning. During the day use II
disappearing cream. rubbing II In and
then wiping II Off with n piece of old
linen. AT night rub In the cream but
do not rub II off but allow II TO re-
main NIL night.
The disappearing cream is made MS
follows: White wax, ! ounce sper-
1nnceti. ! ounce; almond oil, ounces
rose water 4 ounces. Use ms described
above. Can be put up by any druggist
ar Mt home. remembering that the more
cream Is beaten the smoother II
will he.

Before Gaucho had turned to obey,
before Stanway's echoing words sank
into silence, there came from beyond
the door an exclamation of terror, u
sudden cry. and the reverberating
crack Of a revolver.

ment which seemed long, and the blows
Of two axes, ripping and tearing at the

A more dressy suit of velours re-

ton set on to make an effect of drap-
cry on the hips, and this piece is en-
broidered in points with graduated
disks between them. The same design
appears on the skirt which in this suit
is considerably wider than those of
the past season. AT the front and
back. between the embroidered points,

prominence given to embroidery In
this model and indicates that skirts
may be less plain than they have been.
The very narrow skirt has disap-
