totally destroyed by fire. Wednesday
afternoon. The origin of the fire is un-
known, and when Mr.. CHM, the tenant,
discovered the blaze it had made such
headway, that in few minutes it was
a roaring mass Of flames and was quick
ly consumed. The Volunteer Hose
Company. of this town, responded to
the call, but when they reached the
farm the building was destroyed, and
the only service they could render was
to prevent the flames from spreading.
Fortunately the tenant had but very
little feed in the building. The barn

COW MADE GOOD RECORD

Paul B. Messick one of the leading
dairymen of this section has just closed
a seven days official test on one of his
best dairy cows and has proven without
doubt that he now has the best dairy
cow so far found among the many good
Holsteins in Delaware. The test was
conducted under the supervision of T.
Moore Whiteman, a member of the
graduating class of Delaware College.
In the seven days the COW Retta
Moonie Perfection gave SILT lbs of
milk, an average of 81.4 lbs. per day,
and with an average butterfat test of
35. The best days butter production
was 3.8257, and the seven days butter
record was 55. O398 lbs. only
This cow was in fair condition tho
as regards to flesh when put on ' Ut
test, and no doubt had she been p Ct
in slightly better shape before the te'
began, she would have made better
than 80 Id. record. Her flow of milk
increased every day, and the heaviest
flow being on the last day of the seven
days, she having given at the rate of
SO lbs. per day on the milking on the
morning following the closing of the
test at midnight.
The COW was fed a grain ration of
about 81 lbs. per day, together with a
ration of 80 lbs of COW beets, and 90
lbs. of silage. She is one of the herd
which was purchased from Owen D.
Taft, of Livingston Council, Mich, two
years ago in the cow purchasing plan
which was financed by the Newark
Trust Co., of Newark, DEL, and the
New Castle County National Bank, of
Odessa.

has q 172 lb. daughter, which is at

BASEBALL PROSPECTS

The baseball season is now close at
hand, and as far as can be learned, not
a move has been made toward the or
ganization of team of Middletown.
Why the delay? Baseball has been
promoted here for the past four years
on most successful basis, the town
being represented by team which
made grand record each year, having
won more than 65 per cent. of the
games played in the four seasons.
While the teams have not been en-
tirely self supporting, they have been
managed at a very small loss, and
toward the losses we have always been
willing to contribute. Why not try
and induce the business men of the
town to get behind good team for
MiddIetown for the 1920 season? The
records of the 1919 team will show
that more than 5000 persons attended
the games. Many were residents of
the town, and many were from the
surrounding country, and it is safe to
say that a large percentage of the
visitors bought something besides
baseball ticket while they were in the
town. Anything that brings visitors to
the town benefits the town. as can be
witnessed by the attendance at the
Middletown Opera House, where after
every show the crowd distributes itself
in the restaurants. at the soda foun-
tains, and various other places of busi-
ness.
suggest that meeting be held
within the coming week, and some
definite plans formed toward the organi-
zation of team. The material for
the most part is here, and only needs
developing. The equipment is on hand,
in the shape of the best baseball dia-
mond in Delaware, and the uniforms
and other parapharnelia is in the hands
of the management of the 1919 team.

should be settled before beginning

WAR RELIEF ENTERTAINMENT

Last Thursday evening the Jewish
ar Relief hired the movies and gave
the large audience. that filled that
handsome playhouse a fine and varied
entertainment consisting of a very su-
perior melo:drama styled Eyes of the
Soul', with Elsie Ferguson in the star
role of ''Gioria" and some gas-blinded
hero of the Argonne starring as Lar
ry''. The thing was excellently we'll
done, neither of these two stars in
their impersonations, ''o'er-stepping
the modesty of nature, which Hamlet
forbids, and as consequence, their
pathos, never descending into bathos,
deeply tugged at the heartstrings of
those who saw the story reflected in
the very best manner from that silver
ed screen IN Impresario Lewis Opera
House. Then there was the usual comic
play with it's broad, slapdash farce that
greatly tickied the risibles of all from
pit to gallery.
The play was followed by an admira-
BILE vaudeville of recitation, music and
song. Miss Rose Chertok, who has be-
fore delighted the MiddIetown public
with her tuneful throat, sang number
of delightful selections, and received
hearty encores, as also did Miss E.
Wendle for her exceptionally fine elocu-
tionary renderings. Her clear enuncia-
tions, and gracefully appropriate act
ing, made her recitations highly ENJOY
able. Both she and Miss Chertok also
gave a comic duo recitation. small
girls story of how her sister Enter
tanned Her Callers"
Both these talented ladies are from
Coatesville, Pa, Miss Chertok being
niece of Mr.. Fogel. We hope they will
visit us again.
The Jewish Orchestra from the
Young Mems Hebrew Association in
Wilmington, gave some excellent music
at various times. All these ladies and
gentlemen rendered their services gratis
towards the worthy cause of suffering
humanity. The evening netted S266. IA
