Fine Peaches in
Lower Delaware
But Few Orchards

The peach crop in lower Delaware
this year is the largest for several
seasons ,and while prices for the early
fruit was not high, growers are re-
ceiving good prices for the late varie-
/ ties such as the Belle of Georgia and
Elbertas.
The early fruit was plentiful and
| growers sold it in local markets for
thirty-five cents per fiVe-eighth bask-
ct. The later fruit now ripening is of
larger size and fine flavor and house
wives have been able to can enough
for family use.
Next week the famous Elberta Vari-
ETY. will be over and the fruit is of
good size and highly colored.
Twenty years ago peaches were ex-
tensively grown in lower Delaware
and train loads we're shipped to the
city markets. Scale and "yellows" in
the trees played havoc with the busi-
ness and growers became discouraged
and quit the attempt to grow peaches.
Until within the past four or five years
little attention has been given to peach
growing.
For the past ten years apple grow
ing has supplanted the peach indus
try, but few horticulturalists are be-
ginning to learn that they are able to
realize as much if not more, by grow
ing choice peaches than they can ap-
pies; although the latter is a prolific
and paying crop and is proving an as
set to those who are extensively en-
gagged in growing them.
Delaware peaches for many years
were famed throughout the United
States as being the finest favored of
any grown in the country, and twenty
five years ago there was a great de-
mand in the city markets for them.
Within the past two decades, how
ever, their culture to great extent
has been engaged in by those who
only make a speciality of growing
fruit and have devoted time and study
to combating all kinds of tree dis
eases. @g&I
Possibly the most extensive or
chards to be found in lower Delaware
are the famous Chandler orchards of !
many thousands Of trees, located near
Milton, in Broadkiln district. The own
er, William H. Chandler, who main
tains his summer home at Milton
where for many years he was resi-
dent and prominent business man, is
head of the commission firm of w. H.
Chandler & Co., of Scranton, Pa, and |
most of the time directs his attention
and supervision of the orchards.
When all others fail to get a crop,
the Chandler orchards produce fruit
because care is given in spraying, and
IN the spring smudges are operated to
keep the buds from being killed by
frosts. The oil used in the smudges
annually amounts to many hundreds
)f dollars, but the reward is reaped by
he high prices realized when there is
4 scarcity of fruit. Many carloads
will be gathered from these orchards
his summer.

REFERRING CONDITIONS

The wisdom Of starting with the very young people in the attempt to better conditions that threaten the present and the future has been here emphasized. Where many children and young people are gathered to- gether. there is the place to start the thought of improving conditions so that when these young people grow up. they uiil have learned the neces- sny or seeing to it that life in all phases is made better. more safe, more efficient This matter was touch- ed upon recently in these columns in regard to the wisdom O. letting school children and young members Of organizations realize the utter folly and tragedy Of war. bringing waste and fra eedy.

training They are earnest men who have proven their devotion to country. In so proving it they have suffered more than it is possible to adequately describe. Ten thousand Of them in the next three months will cease their preparation and will come into the world again. still under personal handicaps in the matter of enjoying life as those enjoy life who did not suffer as they have suffered, but under no handicap that will prevent them from doing the work for which they have now been prepared.
 In this matter there should be no parading of verbal patriotism by theorists. The fewer the words the better. Every man who is an em- ployer should ascertain if he, directly or indirectly, can aid in finding posi- tions for these men. It is all very well to prate about what the government has done for them in training them to become self-supporting. Certainly the government has done no more for them than they deserve-and the comments are confined to these re- habiitated men. No government, no multitude of taxpayers, however gen. erous can ever restore to them all that they have lost forever. But what good will this vocational training have done them if after they are ready to go to work. there are no places pro- vided for them to fill? The feeble at tempt of the government, well-mean- ing and sincere as it has been, to do something for the disabled would prove fruitless if we, who are the government, do not turn the prepara- tion to the advantage of those who have worked hard to prepare them selves. The investment will have been wasted, and the losers will be- of course, those who. serving, still bear the sears Of service. the handi- caps of service which may never be escaped,
 In our plans for the New Year these 10000 rehabilitatcd former service men should stand out as mon who must be given the chance they seek their heads held high, conscious that they are asking for nothing for which they will not give adequate return.
