Amalgannated Men
TO Continue Work
Pending Settlement
Strike in Youngstown Steel
Works Averted for Time
at Least; Negotiations May
Last During Month of July

Although manufacturers and union
representatives have so far failed to
agree on wage scale for the year
starting to-day, members of the Anal
gamated Association Of Iron, Steel and
Tinplate Workers will continue at their
Jobs for at least another month, it
was announced in Youngstown yester-
day. The decision not to strike, throw
ing $4,000 out Of work, was taken when
it appeared likely that new scale
would be agreed upon in conference.
There Is a good prospect Of agree
ing on the sheet and tinplate mill
scale, though not on the basis Of the
20 per cent advance proposed by the
workers, according to the current issue
of "The Iron Age" and it is believed
that compromise will be reached also
in the bar iron division. The open shop
mills of the United States Steel Cor
poration are not affected by the ego
tiations. "Thc Iron Age" summary of
trade conditions says, in part:
"The week has brought the steel
trade no relief from the distractions
Of its railroad entanglements. Works
operations continue at fairly high
rate, but with further additions to the
unshipped stocks of finished product.
Failure of coke supply has stopped
a number of blast furnaces, and in
Eastern Pennsylvania six have been
thrown die on this account or for re-
pairs and in the Chicago district two.
Furnaces compelled to make a short
turn for fuel have paid as high as $1S
for spot coke, though contract coke
has sold at S11. At the same time the
Tightening of the prompt pig iron mar
ket has put basic iron up 81 ton or
to $45 at Valley furnace.
"Four inquiries from Western roads
amount to 1850 cars, which will take
$500 tons of plates, shapes, and bars;
Eighty locomotives also will be ordered
ing of cars by iron and steel and coal
and coke companies has brought the
total of such cars placed in June to
about 6,oOO'
"The Iron Trade Review will say
to-day:
apart from the labor factor the
transportation situation rapidly is
reaching a crisis through the order of
the Interstate Commerce Commission
practically barring the use of all coal
cars for iron and steel shipments dur
ing the next three weeks. This is
hobbling the industry in a far-reachng
way. Effects of the restrictions upon
the use of open-top equipment have
been more keenly felt during the last
week and they promise to grow ex-
ceedingly before the allotted thirty
days period has expired"

VINEYARD COMPANY

LIKELY THAT MILFORD SHIPBUILDING
PLANT MAY MAKE IMPROVEMENTS
AT MOUTH OF MlSPILLION.
GOVERNMENT LIMIT $4,000
THE VINEYARD co. is WELL EQUIPPED TO
HANDLE The CONTRACT AND NEAR
SCENE OF OPERATIONS. -

The Vinyard Shipbuilding Company
OF Milford. was the loves. bidder and
probably will get the contract for
jetty construction AID repairs At the
mouth of the Mispilliol river near
Milford, Delaware Bids were opened
at the United States Engineer Office
in the Federal building last Monday
morning.
Thirty thousand dollars has been al
loted for the job, and it was believed
at the engineer Office the BID OF the
Milford firm would come within that
figure There were three bidders, the
Arundel Corporation, of Baltimore.
Simpson Brown and Company, OF New
York, and the Vinyard Shipbuildng
Company, of Milford.
Action on the bids now awaits the
return of Colonel J. p. Jervey, United
States Engineer for the Wilmington
District Colonel Jeryey Las been in
the Southwest inspecting Texas oil
ports in company with the advisory
board OF engineers Of the War Depart
ment. He is expected TO return TO
Wilmington today.
After examination or the bids, Colo
mel Jervey will forward them 10 the
War Department with letter of rec
ommendatiOn for whatever action he
thinks advisable. Final award viii be
made by the department.
The bids were made on four sepa-
rate proposals, as follows:
For extension of ietiy, including
cluster Of piles and fender piles al the
of end, per linear foot Arundel Cor
pOratiOn, S72; Simpson, Brown and
Company S44S5; Vinyard Shipbuild-

the following: Arundel Corporation,
$50; Simpson, Brown and Company,
S56.93, and the Vinyard Shipbuilding
Company, $3.50.
Jetty work and repairs is relatively
a new line of work for the Vinyard
Company, which is en-
gagged in ship construction lines. The
company is equipped to handle the
ietty contract, however, having the
necessary materials and being close to

WILT-PROOF TOMATOES

The wilt resistant tomato seed pro-
ject was tried out last year in Sussex
County by one hundred and fifty
eight 1881 Of the tomato growers.
Some were very we'll pleased with
the wilt resistant tomatoes, but, ow-
ing to the unfavOrable season. it was
impossible to gather correct infOr-
nation and data concerning these
plants.
Last year the farm bureau was able
through Prof. J. NJ. LeCato, Exten-
sion Pathologist, at Delaware Col
aware College, to secure about four
hundred ounces of these seed which
were sent to the growers who made
inquiry concerning the project and
who agreed to return as many seed in
the fall as they had gotten. Quite
number did this while the majority of
the demonstrators made a complete
failure of this project. This year it is
impossible to secure the wilt resistant
tomato seed and the farm bureau has
only about sixty 600 ozs Realizing
the importance of giving these seed
a fair test, the project will be carried
out this year as follows
First-NaOmi Pepper, Georgetown,
Del naomi is a club girl and for
the past three years has been grow
ing plants for salel will be the nrn-
ject leader for the county.
SecOnd-All of these seed will be
planted by Naomi Pepper and given
the best of care and attention.
Third-County Agent Vaughn will
personally see to the spraying of the
seed bed and transplanting these
plants.
Fourth-Growers who want to try
these seed will notify the County
Agent and he will see that they get
their plants.
Fifth-The growers who get these
plants will be asked to pay just what
it costs to spray the seed bed and the
labor of transplanting.
The object OF this projejct is to
show to the growers that it is best
to transplant their plants before set
ting them into the field, and we think
this plant will give the seed better
chance.
