To Sue For Income Tax

Announcement was made recentlv
that State Treasurer Fisher will have
executions issued on all judgments OBJ
tained against delinquent State income
tax payers, and an attempt will be
made to collect the amounts due.
At the same time all outstanding &C.
counts for taxes due will be placed in
the hands of the attorney. general for
collection.
In view of the fact that many delin-
quents have been frank enough to
notify the collectors of their belief that
the extra income tax collections is it,
legal, and that they prefer taking
chances of prosecution rather than nav.
ing over money and waiting until the
Legislature sees fit to return it. the
State Treasurer proposes to 20 ahead
and force collections, thus enabling any,
one so desiring to take test case to

Avoid Hessian Fly in Wheat

The Hessian fly is the most injurious
insect enemy known to W leat in Della
ware. Once it affects a wheat crop
there is no remedy. The only remedy
is preventive and that is to keep the fly
out of wheat by seeding at the proper
time. Wheat should not be seeded in
Delaware prior to October l, except in
the rolling section of northern New
Castle County. The approximate earli-
est dates of planting for the counties is
as follows: New Castle County, October
to 5; Kent County, October to 8, and
Sussex, October 5 to 10. Keep the fol-
lowing point in mind: Practice crop ro-
tation. DO not sow wheat on wheat
stubble land if possible to avoid it, De-
stroy all volunteer wheat by diskinp or
some other method. PIow land to be
seeded to wheat early and prepare we'll:
thoroughly compacting the seed bed
Use good seed. Fertilize. Seed wheat
after the fly free dates above.

HAS LARGE CLASS
Students Elect Engineering, Science
And Agriculture
IS FRESHMEN ENTERED MONDAY

Engineering continues to be the most
popular course at the University of
Delaware judging from the early regis
tration. This conclusion is determined
from an analysis of the KS freshmen
who were favorably passed on by the
faculty at special meeting held on
! Monday.
The faculty at its meeting on Monday
admitted IS freshmen for the freshmen
class this year. Of this number 38
have registered in the various engineer
ing courses as follows: Civil engineer
ing, IL; electrical, 10; mechanical, 6;
chemical, 5, and not specified, making
total of SO.
The arts and science course, how
ever, is also popular, as "a of those
admitted by the faculty on Monday
have registered for that course. There
is some disappointment under all the
circumstances from the fact that only
five of the IS students. who were
officially admitted at that time had
specified agriculture. Five other new
students failed to specify what course
they would take up.
This number IS, however, does not
mean that the freshmen class will be
limited to only IS.
In addition to the S5 admitted, appli-
cations had been received early this
week from about 35 others whose cred
entails had not been passed on. This
year the entrance requirements is Is
units instead of IA, as specified last
year, but as the standard high school of
the State has also raised its standards
to Is units this should not make great
deal of difference.
, The classification test in English and
French must be taken by all students
the university.

said Ward, "you can't do that, but you

church people do that, and it's a mis-.
take. They pay without entering.
They support the church with their
