OVERLOOK

The route for the proposed State
Highway, Milford to Rehoboth is the
all absorbing topic for the farmers
here. A complete canvas of so farm
ers between Drawbridge and Red Mill
and nearby reveals only one farmer
who refused to sign the petition for
the Drawbridge route. Schools and
churches of which there are more
along the route, have been closed on
account of the condition of our roads.
Only for our schools and churches it
should receive careful consideration
But the most productive farms on the
side of the county are along the route
and to the coast in what is known as
the necks, there people have not the
advantage of a gravel road. We can
not help but read with some amuse-
ment of Milton claim for the road ov-
er the farmers. They claim 1000 pop
ulation, men women and children and
say they ought to have the road be-
cause it will serve more people and
will be more centerally located, how
they get this is a funny one. The Mil
ton-Harbeson route will parallel the
du POnt road, not further than five
miles at the farthest point. What has
become of Broadkill and Prime Hook
Necks where the large crops of corn.
wheat and tomatoes have been grown.

that their claim to the road is d
