improved by thinning out woodland

and sowing tame grasses.
For greater assurance Of livestock
feeds during the summer drOughts, to
which the section is liable. many
farmers plant Sorghum, millet and
kafir corn as auxiliary hay crops. On
better-managed farms silage Is also

The soils of the region have a wide
variation in natural fertility and pro-
ductiveness. They are usually porous,
owing to the large content of stone
and gravel. AS result air and water
circulate through them freely. and
when they are put under cultivatVn
the humus content is quickly lost un-
less a system Of farming is adopted In
which provision is made to replenish
the supply. If the humus content is
lost the water-holding capacity Of the
soils is greatly reduced. and. as a re-
suit, crops suffer severely during the
summer droughts and profitable yields
are then almost impossible.

Mistakes We often Make.

There Is prOverb which reads -
1.-The man who never made a mistake
never made anything else" There Is
a great deal Of truth In that saying.
Sometimes we come across one Of
those perfect individuals who claims
never to make mistakes. hut more
often we find that these very same
persons not only make mistakes but
very grave ones.

DELAWARE RIFLEMEN
FINISH IN CLASS B
State Marksmen in 10Th Posi-
ton in Field from All
Over the Country

In the contest between the civilian
teams competing in the national
matches at Camp Perry, Ohio, on
Thusrday and Friday of last week,
the men representing Delaware, after
an uphill fight, finally succeeded in
making scores which landed them in
10th place in a list of 72 teams TAX
ing part. They made total of 1899
out of a possible $500 on all ranges
and thereby won class B medals and
the distinction of finishing higher on
the list than any civilian team that
has ever before represented this
state. At one stage of the contest
they had worked themselves up to
10th position but lost this on the long
ranges, due largely to high wind
against which they had to shoot.
The Delaware National Guard
team did remarkably we'll, five of
them qualifying as expert riflemen.
In the national team matches they
did not finish in the medal classes and
had not expected to as the trip this
year was for training purposes only
They expect however to send first
class team to Camp Perry next year
and one that will make record for
iself and the state.
The civilian team included Fred
Manion, j. w. Lister, j. A. Julian
Robert Fletcher, M. w. Terrill and
w. o. Webster.

ASSOCIATION
sHANNAHAN DIRECTS THE PARTY

Talbot county, of which Easton is
the seat. The first stop was made at
Third Haven Friends Meeting House,
in Easton, which was built in 1882.
The history Of the building was ex-
planned by Nelson Tylor, editor of the
Gazette, and member of the So
ciety of Friends. The adjoining GEM
etery was also an object of interest.
The famous Wye House, the stately
homestead of the Lloyd family, eight
miles from Easton on the Wye river,
proved a most interesting spot of the
afternoons itinerary. Settled by
Charles Lloyd about 800 years ago,
the great plantation, now reduced to
800 acres, has remained in the family
ever since. 1t has a large Colonial
homestead, spacious grounds, which
have been converted into large bo-
tanical garden, and private GENE

members of the family back to the

in these graves are those of many

Responding to an invitation of S.

largest meeting in the history of the
association was held at Easton on

wasn't an idle moment, with the
possible exception of three hours pre-

Foot Ball Schedule

University of Delaware Football
team will open the season on the
home gridiron, Frazer Field, on Sat-
urday, October l, with the strong
Muhlenburg eleven as opponents.
Sylvester Derby the new football
coach, will have the squad in much
better shape by that time. Notwith-
standing the large score run up ON
Delaware by the big Penn team last
Saturday, those who have watched
the squad practice predict that Derby
will develop strong team. The Penn
game was in no way fair test. 1t
was played so early in the season
there was not sufficient opportunity
to prepare a team for such hard
game and Derby being new coach
was doubly handicapped.
There are eight more games on the
schedule of which number five will b
played at home and three away The
complete schedule follows:

DARING HOLD-UP
NEAR NEWARK
STEAL CAR-THEN BURN IT

Held up by two men he had given
ride along the road shortly after IL
o'clock Saturday morning, near New
ark, Robert w. Webb of 1924 Vande-
yer Avenue, Wilmington, was COM
pelled to surrender his wallet con-
tanning $40 in cash, a gold watch and
his automobile, Stearns, valued at
1900. AS Webb got out of the ma
chine one of the men kept revolver
leveled at his head land threatened
to shoot if he attempted to interfere
with them.
Webb, who was on his way to
Washington, D. c., reported to the
police that about five miles from
Newark, two young men walking on
the road waved their arms for him to
stop and asked him for ride. They
said they were going to Newark and
Webb invited them to jump in. They
climbed in the tonneau. About mile
from Newark, Webb heard voice
saying:
"'Now stop the machine and hold up
your hands," He glanced back and
saw one Of the men pointing the gun
at his head, while the other started to
| climb to the front seat.
One man searched Webb's pockets
while the other kept him covered with
the weapon. Then they ordered him
to "beat it,"
"Well take care of the automobile
| don't worry one of them called back
as they sped away, leaving Webb
| alone on the road. Webb walked tc
| Newark and notified the authorities
there and then telephoned the Will
mington police.

Examination of the license tags show
ed that it was the automobile stolel
from Webb earlier in the morning
The machine was burned beyond re
pair. Ten gallons of gasoline in tn
tank in the rear of the machine wa
intact, fact which the detective
were unable to explain. A farme
who lives hundred yards from tn
place where the burned machine wa
discovered, said he had not heard an,
unusual noises. Webb was unable t
give more than vague description o
the men. Both appeared to be abou
80 years Old, and were dressed in dar
suits, one wearing hat and tn
other cap, he said.
Local opinions vary, there appear
