FARMERS DAY AUG. 3
Dean McCue Will Begin Work on
Program Next Week
ARE EXPECTING 1000 VISITORS

Inc Experimental Farm and Expert
ment Station will be busy in short
time now making arrangements for the
Annual Farmers Day Meeting, which
TINS year will be held on Aug gust Sd.
Dean McCue has announced that this is
the date that has been fixed for this an
nuaI event this year. Further arrange
ments for the event will be made in all
probability by next week afte er the re-
turn of Dean McCue from an orchard
inspection trip through Virginia and
West Virginia.
With the excellent roads that now
lead to Newark from all parts of the
state 1t is expected that there will be
at least 1000 farmers on hand for the
affair. The farmers as rule are taxi
ing more interest every year in the re-
sources which the State University has
to offer them in the way of assistance
Tor the betterment of farm crops, live
stock and general farm conditions.
The work of entertaining and in
structing the farmers who attend will
be worked out by Dean McCue and an
excellent program will be arranged for
the occasion, the summer agriculture
event of the year in Delaware.
1t is expected that as in previous
years the experimental work of the
college, including farm crops, orchards.
small fruits, live stock, etc. will be
labeled in such way that visitors may
learn the work being conducted for
their benefit and the results to date of
such experimental work. 1t is thought
that the farm crops, particularly corn
and soy beans, will be in ideal shape to
show the results of various treatments
OF fertilizers, manure and the effect of
crop rotations. 1t is expected that
there will be great deal of interest in
the soy bean crop, inasmuch as there is
great number of these beans being
raised by the farmers in all parts of the
State this year.
An interesting feature OF the affair
will be the demonstration conducted by
the men of the Rehabilitation Division.
The boys of this department take
great interest in their agriculture work
and many excellent plots have resulted
from their efforts.
| Although the plans have not yet been
worked out it is expected that the
three County Farm Bureaus through
their various communities will organize
automobile parties to make the inspec-
ton trip.

to be present..
In the wisdom, providence and plan
of God, one day in every seven has
been set apart for his special worship
and the uplift Of the erring children Of
humanity. You may have reached the
conclusion that you can get along with
out public worship, and you may regard
yourself as one who can do without any
uplift. If such be the case, it is very
unlikely that your conclusion is result
of reasoning. You are merely indiffer-
ent without being able to explain your
Indifference. You could scarcely formu-
late charge against God and then pro-
ceed to prove it. 1t is highly incon-
ceivable that you regard yourself as
pei feet and if you do, it is certain that
you could not prove such claim. To
put the whole matter in sentence:
God is right and you are wrong. He is
right in requiring you to worship, you
are wrong in refusing. He is right in
providing for the uplift of mankind
YOU are wrong in refusing to avail
yourself of that uplift. Get right as
soon as you can. Come to worship God
in his sanctuary. Prepare to worship
him in spirit and in truth. Your wor-
ship will then by his blessing become
your uplift.
