A meeting that is expected to have
an important bearing on future
freight and express shipments from
lower Delaware and other points down
the peninsula, is being held in the
Junior Order Mechanics hall at Sea-
ford to-day, Wednesday afternoon,
October II, at 1.30 o'clock, when the
brokers Of lower Delaware are con-
ferring with officials of the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad Company, from Phil
adelphia and New York. The meet
ing is called to discuss better freight
and express shipments on fruits and
produce, handled by the brokers on
the peninsula, who claims that the
schedule, as now maintained by the
railroad company, and which was in
force all summer, is a detriment to
them, and works a financial hardship
on their shipments to New York ane
Philadelphia markets, as well as Other
points north and the New England
States. The brokers viii endeavor K

The large barn of st. Joseph's In
dustrial School which was burned last
May is being replaced by new up-to-
date buildings. Instead of having
everything under one roof it has been
judged wiser to divide it up into three
large buildings at a safe distance
from each other, one for calves, one
for cows, and third for horses. They
are all built in the same way with
foundations and floors of concrete, the
walls of frame, and the roof covered
with rubberoid. The central building,
which is the cow-house with accom-
.modations for forty animals, has all
modern improvements. The sides of
the stalls are of iron piping and the
collars and yokes and drinking bowls
act automatically. An iron receiver
travels around the barn on an over
head track, into which refuse can be
shoveled. The track takes the re-
ceptacle into the pound where its con-
tents can be dumped.

Farmers about Clayton and through
out the State are constantly reporting
a labor shortage. Much of this short
age is due, to the higher wages paid
by contracting concerns doing road
building and other public work and by
higher rates of pay in the cities. Even
if farmhands should receive from
$500 to $500 a day, the result of
which if this continues the consumer
would have to pay nearly twice as
much for farm products. The great
est shortage is among the farms in
New Castle county. Because of the
proximity of Wilmington, the farm
hands are enticed to the city by the
higher wages offered there. "Such is
the case," says Frank H. Yearsley,
agent of the New Castle Farm Bureau
in a recent statement, mot only in
this State but in every Eastern State.
The shorter hours for working and
the higher wages lure farm workers
away from the farm. 81 have been
studying the farm problems in New
Castle very closely and as yet l see
no solution. At present there are five
farms in the vicinity Of Hockessin ly-
ing idle. Many of the farmers have
said that they do not expect to con-
tinue next year. That will mean more
farms idle. 'This condition is just
the same way in Pennsylvania also
I've gone through the country about
Yorklyn during the wheat harvest and
have seen on most farms one man do
ing the work of two" Reports from
down the State also tell of how the
large grain farms lying in the dis
trict from Dover to the Delaware Bay
are manned by only one farmer, al
though a large force is needed.

BUILDING BUSINESS

Every business man wants more business.
He wants every possible purchaser in his
trade territory to be his patron. He ought
to use every possible instrumentality to get
that business.
Today the telephone is used by the most
progressive houses to get new accounts. to
close contracts and generally to transact
business which formerly was handled by slow
mail or by the more expensive method of
sending representative.
Study the possibilities of the telephone or,
better still. talk to the telephone man about
how it can be made more useful and profitable
to you There are low rates which may suit
your needs. Get acquainted with this valu-
able and inexpensive system of business
building.

GERMANY IMPRESSED.
Gives Attention to C,lrzon's speed, on
Preparations Plan.

Berlin, April II (By Associated
Press) Berlin newspapers tour
print long dispatches from Lonaon
reporting Lord Curzon's speech in the
house OF lords appealing to Germany
to make the first move toward set
telment of the Preparations question.
The speech will certainly make a
great impression in Germany and
probably also in France says the So
cialist organ Vorwaerts, which de-
clares that England can, if she wish
es, so exert her influence that a solu-.
ton may be reached satisfactory to
economic circles in France and bear
able by Germany.
The Tageblatt considers the speech
a most statesman-like declaration
which gives the impression that prog
ress is possible on the basis of Lord
Curzon's suggestions.
