ABUNDANCE OF CROPS BUT
THEY WERE NOT PROFITABLE
LARGE YIELDS OF CORN AND
WHEAT IN THIS VICINITY

Tons of Tomatoes, However Found No
Market Because Price was Low and
Gamers Could Not Handle Them
The 1921 Wheat crop is now being
seeded here, and within a week will
be finished. Then, with the husking
of the corn crop, the years work for
the farmer vii be at an end. The
general report for the year is that it
has not been profitable for the farm
ers. Of every crop there was an
abuandant yield, but the high prc
of labor have eaten into the profits
until there is nothing left. In this on9
of the finest farming sections of the
United States, many of the best farm
ers are facing a deficit as the year
ends.
There never was a better yield OF
wheat in tbs section, which is known
as the "wheat belt" of Delaware.
Many of the farmers on the best
farms secured more than 80 bushels
to the acre, and less than one-half of
them were able to take advantage of
the high prices and sell their wheat
when the price was at its highest.
Some sold for SO a bushel, others at
$3.50, but owing to the difficulty in Sc
curing threshing machines have still
thei rcrop in the stack or barn and the
pnCe below 81 a bushel.
The corn crop promises to equal the
wheat crop in yield, but the bottom
has dropped out of the market and 10
offer at all is being made for new
corn, it being quoted in the option
markets for December at 85 cents a
bushel. At this price the Delaware
farmer vii go in debt raising corn.
Labor prices have doubled in the past
two years until now the negroes who
CONT here from Virginia to cut corn
made as high as $12 a day. They
have now put the price of husking at
eight cents a basket and refuse to
husk it for less. With these prices
the renting farmer with small yield
will make nothing.
Tomatoes were a total failure as far
as money-making' crop went. There
never was as many known, and there
was a large acreage. but many of the
best patches not a basket was picked,
the farmers refusing to pick them at
twenty cents a basket. They were
plOwed under by the hundreds of tons
which means another big loss.
There is very little encouragement
to them in sowing the 1921 wheat crop
1t Will be the most expensive croI
ever sown here. Fertilizers of the
very lowest quality sold for $40 a ton
higher than last year; seed wheat is
higher, and the prospects for prices
are worse than last year. Many of
the better class of the farmers are
talking of quitting, and within the
past few days several good farms
have been given up by the tenants,
who think they will have better
chance in other businesses.

Il You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped TO reason why
i is that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
Of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is plain-the article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says Take for
example DIR. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a
preparation | have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has so large

According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
so many people claim, that it fulfills al
most every wish in overcomin" kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri-
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.

Swamp-Root by Parcels Post. Address
