agent for E. A. Strout Farm Agency,
of America, Inc, has sold this week
the 1914 acre farm of Harry Griffith
and Alice Griffith, located in Milford
Neck, to Elmer D. Jayne, of Norfolk,
Va. Mr.. Jayne purchased the stock,
farming implements and etc. Mr..
Griffith and wife will give possession
Monday, June 26th, and move to their
new bungalow at Bowers Beach. The
consideration was not given.
The property of Charles Teas, 10
Gated two and one-half miles south
east from Milford, near the Brick
Granary, was sold by Sheriff Nell
vaine last Saturday, in front of the
Did Windsor Hotel. The property was
bid in by the Milton Trust Company
5or only $500. The farm and build
ngs have been sadly neglected and
ire in very bad shape for a practical
armer to operate. The cost of MAX
ng repairs will have to be added to
he cost to the purchaser. This farm
S composed of excellent fruit and |
ruck growing soils and is located in
ne Of the best sections of farming /

ion, the farm would have easily
rOught $4,000.

SHIPMENT OF BAD APP
PLESCAUSING TROUBLE
COMMISSIONER DERRICKSON SAYS new
YORK HAS PLACED A TEMPORARY
BAN ON OUR APPLES.
SHALL AWAIT GOOD FRUIT
IF FARMERS WILL WAIT ANOTHER WEEK
WHEN GOOD APPLES WILL BE ON
THEY CAN KEEP PRICE UP.

According to W. T. Derrickson of
Dover, head of the Division of Markets
IN Delaware, farmers of this State
stand to lose thousands of dollars on
their apple crop this year unless some
way is found at once to prevent the
Shipment to outside markets of un-
graded, specked and some times rot
ten fruit that has fallen from the
! trees. The apple market has been so
demoralized, he says, by this shipping
OF spoiled apples that the New York
health authorities have placed a. ban
against receiving just at present any
apple shipments coming from Della
ware.
If the farmers of Delaware will be
willing to wait another week when
the good, graded apples will be ready
for shipment, they will be able to
keep up the prices of their large crop
and will stop Delaware apples from
getting BLACK eye" in the outside
world, Mr.. DerricksOn explained.
If they persist in shipping apples
that have fallen from the trees and
are not fit for use after they reach
the market, then it will mean that
when the real crop does come on,
there will be no market willing to re-
ceive it.
The Division of Markets, of which
Mr.. Derrickson is the executive officer, |
was organized upon authorization of |
the last session of the State Legisla- /
ture, which granted an appropriation |
of $4,000 with which it is hoped to |
standardize the fruit and the packages
in which the fruit ahG. the packages in
which the fruit is shipped so that the
famous Delaware fruit may command
a price commensurate with its Quail
ity. Up to this time the most ure eent
work has been to secure market quo
tations on the current fruit and vege-
table markets for the information of
Ill growers, shippers and dealers. But
now it is faced with the biggest prob
EN- on its hands since the division
was started-the saving of the Della
ware apple crop for the farmers of !
Delaware.
1t is impossible for the Division of ,
Markets to get in touch with all grow
RS who have been shipping the apples
which have fallen from the trees, even
it knew who they all were and
therefore, Mr.. Derrickson has been \
ompelled to rely on newspaper no. o
ices, he said, to warn the growers of +
heir fate if they persist in shipping u
he apples before they are in good o
hape. Mr.. Derrickson does not be- n
eve any grower in Delaware is ship u
ing out fallen apples merely because n
is willing to turn them into imme- n
late cash at the later appalling ex- v v
ense to himself and the other grow 9,
rs of the State. He believes that such y,
lipments are being made thought iT
ssly and that if attention is called to u
le disastrous consequences immedi-
ely the practice will stop.

WILL IS A FORGERY
THE REGISTER SAYS
DECISION HANDED DOWN BY REGISTER
MUSTARD in The WILLIAM S. KIN
NEY CONTESTED CASE.
ABOUT $4,000 is INVOLVED
CASE ATTRACTED GREAT ATTENTION.
FIRST OF ITS KIND EVER TO COME
UP in 5USSEX COUNTY.

Register of Wills William J. Mus
tard, in a decision handed down in
the William S. Kinney, contested will
case, holds that the alleged will dated
December 1, 1921, was a forgery. This
will alleged to have been witnessed
by Alvin L. Marvel and Nathaniel
COnaway, both of Seaford, left all of
the estate to the widow of the deceas-
ed, Mary E. Kinney, of Seaford, ex-
cept $500 to his only son, Sorin M.
kinney, of Houston, Kent county, and
named the widow and son as execu-
tors. This case has attracted consid-
cradle attention in Sussex county.
Mr.. Kinney, who was a wealthy re-
tired SeafOrd farmer, died December
20, 1921, and was buried December of
the same year. On the day of his fu-
neral, his will, drawn by H. w. Bak-
er, Vice-president of the First Nation
al bank of Seaford, and witnessed by
Walter 7. Wallace and Harper Ma
ther,. both of Seaford, was read at his
late home by Mr.. Baker in the rres-
ence of his son and widow. Sorin M.
kinney was his son by a former mar
rage. This will was drawn in Decem-
Der 1915 and left all the estate to his
son, except $1,000 and-other stipulated
sums which the deceased man had
paid his widow. A few days after the |
reading of this will, the will of De-
eember 1, 1921, was brought forward I
lnd read to the son by'a attorney of |
georgetown. Alvin L. Marvel, who |
iWore he prepared this will at Kin
leys request, is brother of the wild

" this will.

on is as follows:
