CLUB ORGANIZING
Boys and Girls Pure Bred Dairy
Cattle Club

The fourth Boys and Girls Pure
Bred Dairy Cattle Club of New Castle
County is now under organization.
This club is under the direction of the
New Castle County Farm Bureau and
the Extension Department of the Uni
versity of Delaware. A. d. Cobb,
State Club Leader, and R. o. Baus-
man, County Agricultural Agent, are
giving it their personal attention.
There are now over eighty boys and
girls of New Castle County enrolled
in the dairy clubs. This is the larg-
est number of dairy club members af-
forded by any one county in the ten
eastern states.
AS soon as the enrolment in the
club is complete, County Agent R. O..
Bausman will personally select a car
load of wei bred pure heifers and be
responsible for each member receiv-
ing high class dairy animal. Every
member is required to own his own
heifer and be responsible for her.
This feature is made possible thru
an arrangement with local banks.
Keen competition is always in evil
dence at the club shows held in the
fall. Champion heifers are taken to
the State Fair and club members con-
slider it rare honor to have their
animals form a unit of the Farm
Bureau and County Exhibit at the
State Fair.
Results obtained with many of these
club heifers could be object lessons for
many of the practical dairymen of the
County. .'

Fruit Crop Hit
Hard By Frost
The Cold Weather of the Past
Few'Nights Plays Havoc
Ice on Several Occasions

Unless the temperature starts to
climb, the fruit crop of Delaware will
soon be in about the same condition
that it was last year. 1t will be re-
membered the cold nights of the early
Spring last year caused the lost Of
many thousands of dollars to Della
ware fruit growers when the blossoms
on the trees were frozen.
This year the weather warmed up,
the trees broke into blossom and were
getting along nicely when within the
past week or ten days the nights have
been so cold that there has been sew
eral frosts and on several nights there
was ice. On these nights it had gen.
orally rained and trees and blossoms
were thoroughly wet and easily frozen.
About 80 per cent of the expected
fruit yield in Delaware has been kill
ed by these cold nights according to
statement made yesterday by Dean
c. A. McCue, of University of Della
ware. The Dean has been making an
investigation of the fruit trees in the
past few days and has reached the
above conclusion and of course this
percentage will go higher unless the
weather starts to get warmer in the
next few days.
1t is still too early to make any
final judgment as to the effects Of
the frost, Professor McCue said, but
it is an absolute certainty that harm
has been done. Some farmers, how
ever, have expressed the belief that
the quality of the fruit this year will
be greatly improved because of the
smaller number of apples, peaches,
etc, that will have to be nourished
by their respective trees.
Secretary of State Alden R. Benson
of Dover said this week that an in
spection of the fruit trees on his farm
has led him to believe that only the
early strawberries have been injured
seriously. The majority of the buds
on the apple and late peach trees, as
we'll as the cherry blossoms, do not
seem to have been injured or killed,
he says.
1t is quite likely that Sussex county
will be the section of Delaware to sus-
tain the greatest loss from the effects
of the cold weather, because of the
fact that early Strawberries comprise
one of the main products of that
county. These, it is said, are now in
bloom, and the tender blossoms could
not have escaped serious injury by
the frost.
Late strawberries for the most part
have not yet blossomed, and where
this is the case no harm has been
done the plants. The majority of the
peach trees are too far advanced to
have been seriously injured by the
frosts, but those that are now in bloom
have suffered the loss of about 80
per cent. of their buds, according to
the general estimate. This has been
the fate also, it is believed OF other
fruit trees that are in full bloom now.
Reports from various parts of Kent
county Monday morning indicated
that the heavy frost of the past few
nights has seriously injured the vari-
cites of Strawberries which were out
in full bloom the first part of last
week. So far, grapes have not been
seriously affected. Peaches, apples
and pears are believed to be but slight
ly injured.

A WOODSMAN REFORMED.
OR A CHAPTER FROM THE
HISTORY OF PAUL BUNYAN.

Paul Bunyan was famous logger.
As the story goes, he had camp on
the moon and brought his logs to
earth with a skyline" Anyhow
back in 1865, Paul did accompany
General Braddock over the Allegheny
mountains. He was head swamper
then and the forest was so dense
that the army made only mile day.

at will be million years before any
one will need these trees" Never
theless, we are now paying $50 per
leg for dining tables made from what
little is left of those hardwood for
ests.
But Paul moved on to the pine for
ests of Michigan. Il will get me an
OK team" said he, land invest my
profits in real estate. The timber
here will support mammoth cities. -
So he hauled logs day and night. the
city grew, Paul got rich, and would
have lived happily ever after, thus
ending the story-if the timber had
held out. But it didn't, and Paul
went fiat broke, and FASTENED away to
the yellow pine woods of the South,
where he took a contract falling tim
Der.
"Cut the stumps high" quoth
Paul, there is timber enough here
to supply the earth forever" But
soon the camps began to close down
and the mills began to disappear, and
when the boss said "Cut EN- low"
Paul Bunyan quit and started for the
Pacific Northwest, where there was
plenty of timber and no need of be-
ing so particular.
But he got an eye opener when he
crossed the treeless plains. 1t gave
him something to think about "Great
Scott" cried Paul, as he slid over the
Cascades. "They are burning the
forests out here! We have no wood
to waste" So Paul got a job as fire
warden, the moral of which is that it
is wise man who knows enough to
change his mind!

terrupted Mr.. Bowser, as he slammed
the door, and he returned to Mrs.
Bowser, muttering something about in
fernal impudence, to which she re-
piled:
Don't be so impatient; your reform
seems to be working"
In about Is minutes there was a
third ring and a third peddler stood
at the door and softly said
"Mr. Bowser, are you in want of
some nice vegetables? | have some
beauties out here, and there is "A bar

Mr.. Bowser. land don't you ever come

"Just as you say, old man" quietly
replied the peddler. "If have put you

When Mr.. Bowser returned to the
sitting room this time, he found Mrs.
Bowser trying hard to keep a sober
face, and he shouted at her:
"Oh, its very funny. is It? Well. I'll
show you whether it's funny or not !,

No other peddler called After n
lapse of n few minutes the telephone

with a hello to hear voice saying
