BASKETSSHORT,
CROP SALES HIT.
Milford Factories Unable TO
Meet Demands of Farm
mers for Carriers
HARRINGTON ROAD
NEARS COMPLETION

MILFORD. Aug. ga shortage
of baskets and carriers in lower
Delaware is preventing the shipment
OF much fruit and vegetables. When
a farmer brings his crop 10 market
in baskets for shipment or sale TO a
commission merchant the buyer Is
expected to return to him empty
baskets in place OF the ones laden
with fruit or produce.
Basket factories in this vicinity
have been oversold. In consequence
many shippers, unable TO obtain
empty carriers have quit the mar
ket. This has made peaches plenti-
full at home and the prices have been
low. Soft peaches have been selling
as low as rs cents per basket, but
this week the market has stiffened.
The canning facotries are now
running on tomatoes making an out
let for that fruit.
The new concrete road between
Milford and Harrington is nearing
completion. The road Is being con-
structed in two sections. one from
10 Houston and the other
from Houston 10 Milford. The con-
crete is now laid TO within a mile of
Milford and the contractors hope to
fnish this work next week. After
the hardening process of four weeks
L will be opeped to the public.

 In discussing the sitaution, it de- veloped that if temporary repairs were made at present, it would be only a matter of a short time before the en- tire incline leading to the approach would have to be replaced and when this was done it would cost as much to the city as the contemplated improve ment would cost, the time estimate being in the neighborhood of four years.

 Councilman Boyle, chairman of the special committee on the improvement of First street, reported that there was a rock crusher available at Ju- neau for S1,200 and one at the local railroad for s1,S00 but that these prices, although fair, would not make it justifiable for the city to purch asa rock crusher. MT.
