LACKING in WlLLIE'S MAKEUP

feet Of row. The fertilizer should be
well mixed with the top 4 inches of
soil over a space the full width Of the
row, which Is generally 3 feet.
Do not plant cabbage on land where
it was grown last year, especially If
any Of the heads we're diseased or
showed any kind Of trouble. 1t is al
ways a good plan to rotate crops, even
in the small home garden. Cabbage
is subject to several diseases, but for
tunately these do not do much harm
In small gardens. Insects, however,
play havoc with the crop from the
time it is planted. Cutworms are gen.
orally waiting in the soil during early
spring to cut off the stems of the cab
bage plants just at the surface Of the
ground.
Protect Plants From Cutworms.
The best remedy, or rather proven
tive, Is to place bands or tubes Of stiff
paper around the stems of the plants
as they are being set in the garden.
ThiR cardboard makes ideal plant pro-
tectors. By cutting the cardboard in
to strips about inches wide, sections
can be cut of and rolled around a
lead pencil to form a tube. The pro-
tectors should extend an inch below
the surface and at least 2 inches
above. After the stems Of the cab
bage plants have become tOughened
and begin to grow rapidly the pro-
tectors can be taken OF.
Cabbage worms, the eggs for which
are laid by the light-yellow butterflies
that are often seen flying about the
cabbage plants, do a great amount OF
damage. busting the foliage and the
heads with air-slaked lime, to which
a little paris green has been added
or spraying them with arsenate OF
lead, one ounce to a gallon Of water
are both effective. There Is no danger
as the heads grow from the inside ant
the outer leaves, to which the poison
is applied, are all removed.

GOOD COLLAR is ESSENTIAL
Every Farmer Should Plan to Prevent
Sore Necks and Shoulders Of
Work Horses.

Now that the busy season is here,
every farmer should make a careful
examination of the supply of horse
collars on hand and see to 1t that he
has a good fitting collar for every
horse he purposes to put to work. Sore
shoulders and sore necks on farm
horses are generally caused either by
collars that do not fit or by names
that are not properly adjusted.

No Change in
Canning Outlook

The canning crops situation in Del
aware, as we'll as in neighboring
states, seems to be in the same situa-
ton as was reported in the previous
issue of these columns. The growing
of most all these crops including peas,
tomatoes and corn is at a standstill
due to the market situation with re-
spect to canned goods. Gamers are
contracting for very little if anything
and the prices offered are so far be-
low what the farmer feels will be nee
essary to meet cost of production that
he in turn will grow few such crops.
Gamers have refused to deal with
the New York State Association of
cannery crop growers. They are Of
fering to those outside the association
$50 to $50 for peas, and about SIP for
tomatoes. The State Association is
asking SIG for peas, SIT for tomatoes
and $18 for Country Gentleman corn.
Neither the Gamers or growers are
inclined to bulge from their present
rnosition.

Children's Bureau Asks
for Continuance of Support

The Children's Bureau of Delaware
wants to thank all the, people and So
cieties who have given so generously
to help continue its work for another
year. There is another kind of help
that we have received that is perhaps
even more needed than money. Sew
eral people have offered to take into
their homes, children whose fathers
have lost their work because of the
hard times. One woman, who has
only small income but nice home,
boarded little boy who, because of
his nervous condition, needed special
diet and sympathetic care. His father
lost his position and could no longer
pay for him, so she offered to keep
this child free until he secures an
other position.
We have another family of little
children, sister and two brothers
under II years of age, whose mother
is dead and whose father has been
boarding them for two years in homes
found by the Children's Bureau. The
father who is STEADY worker and
who has spent all his money on his
little family, was laid off for the sum-
mer with almost no notice.

This complimentary remark
coming from a dependable
source is sufficient to assure us
that we are extremely fortunate
in having DR.. Phelps with us on
Commencement Day.
Everyone should be looking
