GENERAL MANAGER CAME

IL L Aottt 6CAOk "a AAoho6OA vi
the Oregon Short Line, spent two
hours in conference with a delegation
of Blackfoot men on Tuesday even
ing, going over plans for the visit tC
Blackfoot, of President Carl r. Gray
of the Union Pacific.
Besides Mr.. Plat and his secre
tary, Joseph Goss, there were Mel
F. Boyle, president of the CONNER
cial Club; w. H. Stufflebeam, presi-
dent of the Rotary; Rex Dunlap
acting for E. D. Bloom, president OF
the Kiwanis, who was out of town;
Mayor E. T. Peck; Editor Byrd
Trego; w. F. Bergman of the
| Standrod bank; l.. G. Collins Of the
First National bank, and Cecil
Clarke of the Clark Fuel & Ice
company.
Mr.. Plat explained that he had
asked for this conference because
he wanted to plan for Mr.. Gray's
visit to the town and county, and to
talk over matters relating to the
local reclamation projects as set
forth in the Idaho Republican in the
issue of June z, copy of which he
had filed with his maps and other
data on the Big Trio and the Dubois
project.
Mr.. Platt discussed reclamation
and storage in eastern and southern
Idaho, questioning Mr.. Trego re-
garding many phases Of distribution
as between projects, and then took
up drainage in the Springfield coun-
try with Mr.. Bergman. He asked
what suggestions they had to offer
regarding the way the day should be
spent when Mr.. Gray and his party
came, and listened with much inter
est and expressed hearty approval,
saying that it would interest Mr..
Gray and please him immensely
Mr.. Bergman asked Mr.. Plat If
the farmers could get service on
loading grain, potatoes and other
freight during harvest and heavy
part Of the shipping season and save
them the wagon haul to, the main
line. Mr.. Platt replied that there
is way to handle that and that he |
would be glad to work with us to |.
bring about the arrangement neces-
sary to it's accomplishment. The
laws and rules governing the service
and responsibility of the railroads
are so framed that under some con-
ditions it defeats the purpose for
which they are instituted, and such
have attended the oper-
alton of the beet spurs. He ex-
planned briefly what has to be done
regarding the schedule and its &C
ceptance and publication by order of
the public utilities commission and
the interstate commerce commission,
and showed that by having an under
standing of the whole situation by
the farmers and stockmen who wish
to use the spurs, and cooperation In
spreading the shipments over GER
tain busy period and then emitting
the service for the dull period it will
be possible to protect the shippers
and the company against unneces-
sary losses and waste. 1t was agreed
that. the BlackfOot commercial club
should undertake to bring about this
condition and get this service in
GUIDED in the next publication of the
.raffic schedules and the way opened
Tor shipments on the spurs in the
coming harvest. II
Mr.. Plat said that Mr.. Gray was n
low in New York and that he would
with him by wire to
Zee If our plans for his visit met
With his approval, get his sugges-
ions for it and the date, and would
lofty Blackfoot within few days.

GOOD ATTENDANCE
AT MILFORD SCHOOLS
Second Annual Month Shows That
Nearly Every Room Averaged
Over Ninety Per Cent.

The Milford Public Schools again
showed excellent attendance records
for the second school month of the
year. In October the primary and
grammar school departments, known
officially as the Milford Public School,
had a general attendance average of
between "a per cent and So per cent.
In the Milford High School, the aver
age attendance was even better. In
that department an average of SO per
cent was attained Reports from the
school authorities indicate that every
room in the school had an average of
over 80 per cent for the month, ex-
cept the seventh grade. Those rooms
that attained this average are awarded
one of the books given each month to
the room making a general average of
80 per cent or more by the Service
Citizens of Delaware. Interest in the
school work this term has been in
creasing weekly on the part of the
pupils. This has reflected itself in the
in which the parents of the
town have taken interest in the
schools. More parents and friends of
the children have visited the schools
this year than ever before in the same
length of time.

IT'S GROWING

Every day in every way, the Ami
versary Edition of The Chronicle is
becoming bigger, better and greater.
The work of approaching the bust
ness interests of Milford is expected to
be completed at an early date and our
representatives will then be out in the
surrounding towns, where they expect
to meet with the same cordial and
hearty support that has been received
in Milford.
1t is planned to have full represent
tation from the many towns in both
Kent and Sussex counties, Partially
being shown to no particular section,
because the paper is of the entire low
er Delaware section. Stories are be-
ing written of men, firms, institutions,
schools, churches, good roads, indus
tries, farm lands, health, climate,
transportation, fraternal orders, his
toric items, etc., and will doubtless be
the most interesting and valuable
piece of publicity ever sent out of
lower Delaware.
The Anniversary number will put
lower Delaware's interests more close
ly in touch with those who should be
reached outside. ALI those having the
further development of this section at
heart will no doubt cooperate active
" in the present campaign. Many have
already done so and the number is in
oreasing daily.

KENT LEVY COURT TO
AID SABBATH SCHOOLS

The Kent County Levy Court decid-
ed to have the Sabbath schools of the
county comply with Chapter SO of the
Revised Code of 1915, said chapter
providing for the appropriation of
$500 in support of the Sabbath schools
of the county. In order for Sabbath
schools to avail themselves of a share
in this appropriation, it is necessary
that the teachers or superintendent of
the Sabbath school make a report YER
flied by the certificate of two credit
able citizens stating that the school
has been regularly held for more than
three months in the year for which the
report is made, and the average num-
Der of scholars in such school during
such period. Sabbath schools in the
larger towns, which so desire, may
waive their proportion of this appro-
priation and direct the Levy Court to
appropriate the money to the small
and poor schools throughout the
county. The law provides for the ap-
preparation of $500 annually and this
to be divided among all the schools
in the county. These reports should be
in the hands of the clerk Of the peace
not later than December 1.

APPLE GROWERS MAY
BEAFFECTED ORDER
Suggested Tariff For All Apples
Sent Into England Will Injure
Business In Delaware.
NO REDRESS CAN BE HAD
If Proposed Schedule Is Put Into
Effect United States Govern
ment Cannot Intercede.

The Wilmington Every Evening on
Wednesday evening published an item
which is of vital interest to Delaware
apple growers. The article as it ap-
peared in the Every Evening follows:
Delaware apple growers who have
been experimenting to ascertain the
possibilities of profitable export bus
mess are vitality concerned in the pro-
posal of the Imperial Economic Con-
ference in London to levy a tariff on
apples entering the United Kingdom.
At present Great Britain admits APP
pies from all parts of the world free
of duty. Imposition of IL duty of five
shillings per hundredweight (calcu-
lated to equal $1.20 per 112 pounds)
if carried into effect necessarily
would impose a heavy handicap on
United States growers for the export
trade with the United Kingdom, which
is one of the principal markets for
our apples.
The Department of Commerce to-
day made public the text of a cable
from U. S. Commercial Attache Walter
E. Tower at London, in which the
president of the British Board of
4duO 10 4uOlOu DIS duuOuuCluS LudL
the governments intention is to rec
ommend various preferences on en-
pire products imported into the United
Kingdom, including a duty of five shil-
lings per hundredweight on raw ap-
pies.
Some of the Senator's and Represen-
tatives from apple-growing states are
getting letters from Orchardists ask
ing them to use what influence they
have to protect the growers of this
country.
Inasmuch as the proposed duty is
not discriminatory, but applies to all
the world except Great Britain's do
and colonies, the State De-
partment is shut off from effective |
protest. In fact, it is difficult to con-
ceive Secretary Hughes making any
whatever, more es-
pecially since the United States has
erected a high tariff wall.

LARGE INCREASE IN
POST OFFICE BUSINESS

There has been a steady increase in
the volumne of business at the Milford
Post Office for the entire year of 1923.
From now on the usual rush of first
class mail will hold every man at his
post to keep the service working free
ly; but, the annual avalanche of par
cells post package tide will swell with
each week until after the Christmas
holidays.
To meet this problem, it will be
for the postmaster at Mil
ford to call into service an additional
truck to prevent the Office
from becoming swamped the week just
before Christmas. This increase is not
confined to Milford, for the increase
in post office business as reported
from many cities, reported for October
that from 9.92 per cent and
II per cent, respectively, are reported
~ so typical cities and so selected in
lustrial cities for October as compar-
ID with October, 1922. Four of the typ
cal cities and eight Of the industrial
titles showed increase in postal bust
less of more than 20 per cent COM
Jared with last year.
