Council, and was defeated. All the
members elected, however, were mem
bers of the old Board. William r
Davis received the highest vote, 1866
R. Y. Wallen, ST., came next with 1856
Edward 7. Porter, 146. These were

A meeting of the tomato growers
and farmers of the Clayton Smyrna
community was called by chairman
w. H. Tunis yesterday, Tuesday, af-
ternoOn at Clayton, to discuss the
growing of better tomato plants for
this locality. The Tri-State Packers
Association has agreed to furnish
$1,000 for the propagation of first
class tomato plants in the states of
New Jersey, Delaware and Maryland.
Delaware is to receive 5000 of this
amount and there will be two demon
stration plots located in the state.
This proposition was presented to the
farmers of the Clayton-Smyrna COM
munity by Mr.. E. H. Records of Mid
dletOwn, who is a member of the
committee from the Delaware Tomato
Packers. Kent County Agent Russell
Z. Wilson, of Dover, and County
Agent Leader NJ. o. Pence of Newark
were also present to explain this pro-
ject which will be of great benefit to
all tomato growers in this locality
In order that more definite action
might be taken relative to this matter
another meeting will be held in Clay

for High School Baseball Team


The advisory council of the Smyrna
High School held a meeting on Fri
day, February %, for the purpose of
planning a way to raise money to buy
athletics supplies. We all know the
boys have won the State Champion
ship for the past two years, and they
wore suits borrowed from the town

be able to play lots better in their
own suits, having their schools name
on them. The team has started to
get together and plan the new dia-
mond. There are several games
scheduled and we all want to see the
boys have the same success as form
erly. 1t was decided to give a school
supper soon after the Easter holidays.
Prof. Schantz has been taking an
intensive study in radio during the
past three months. He has also Wis
tied several brOadcasting stations, and

OBSERVE CANNED GOODS WEEK
Saturday March 3rd to March 10th
Canned Foods Will Be At Front

The Canned Foods Industry is one
of the most important industries in
the State of Delaware. Taken in con-
junction with the diversity of crops
thus made possible for farmers to pro-
duce, and affording them nearby cash
markets for peas, corn, tomatoes, and
the various fruit crops utilized by
Gamers, it ranks among the leading
industries of our State Taking into
consideration the population of our
entire country, the per capita con-
sumption of canned foods of every
description, is probably not exceeding
six tins per person per annum. Have
you eaten your share this year If
not, join the crowd of patrons at our
local stores during Canned Foods
Week. Canned Foods Week stream
ers in store windows will call your
attention to this drive, which is on the
