MIR. FULLER FOOLS A TELLER
A Few Facts Farmers Should Know
About Our Foreign Trade.

| A. W. Fuller, director of the bureau
of commercial research of Farm and
Home" has sleuthed the vete noir of
! agricultural prosperity into it's lair.
| It is the three-months-old tariff law.
"The chief hinderance after all, in
righting the agricultural situation" +"
| declares Mr.. Fuller, "is continued diff
ficulty in marketing abroad our farm
supplies. This is primarily true of
grains and meats. On this side the
ocean there is general agreement the
new tariff serves as an exclusive wall
which shuts out payment in goods
and thus restricts international bar
ter"
eve are very fortunate to have an
expert who can so unerringly diagnose
the malady of agriculture" says the
Republican Publicity Association,
through it's President, Hon. Jonathan
Bourne, Jr., with manifest sarcasm.
"Indubitably Mr.. Fuller has found the
reason why we exported about 40,-
100000 pounds of meats in November,
1921, but only 6S,0O0,O0O pounds in No
vember 1922, with the new tariff in
operation; why oleo oil and lard ex-
ports in November 1921 reached 3d.
100000 pounds, but only 100000
pounds in November, 1922; why the
various grain exports, aggregating
56,000,000 bushels in the 1921 month,
slumped to 64,000,000 bushels in the
1922 month; why cottonseed oil show
ed an increase of 100000 lbs. the two
months compared, and canned fruit
increased go per cent in value of ex-
ports.
"Indubitably, also, the general
agreement as to the new tariff being
an exclusive wall restricting interna-
tional barter is supported by the fact
that our exports of all goods for No
vember make that a banner month
over long period of time, while i'm
ports for November were so rigidly
excluded that the Department Of Com
merce has been overwhelmed by the
work their compilation entailed. The
estimate of $3,000,000,000 of imports
for the first year of the new tariff, and
sufficient exports to keep the trade
well balanced must certainly indicate
that Secretary Hoover is all wrong,
presiding as he does over a depart
ment which levels a trade telescope
over the globe, while Mr.. Fuller, as
commercial researcher, is all to the
mustard.
"But, after all, Mr.. Fuller would
make more impression with his re-
searches if he first made an analysis
of the official statistics, and not per-
NIT his charges to go off half-cocked.
A nervous trigger finger is generally
a poor index finger"

FELTON,

Potato buyers are packing and ship
ping sweet potatoes again. The prices
have not rallied since the holiday sea-
son and forty cents per hamper is the
ruling price. The growers are moi
making any money out of their sweet
potato crop of 1922; on the contrary
they are actually behind, as the re-
turns do not square the outlay. Then
again the potatoes have rotted badly
in stOrage-mostly because of the
"black rot" Many growers who have
never before been affected with this
disease, are now throwing out ham,
per after hamper fulls of sweets atfec-
ted with "black rot" This is causing
growers to stop, look and listen as to
sweet potato growing as a business;
but, farmers are the most optimistic
of all agricultural brances-especial-
ly in the growing of SWEET potatoes.
They will generally plant again THIS
coming season and trust that the con-
ditions and prices will be better.
Mrs. Charles Duling and Mrs. Har-
vey Foster have returned to their
homes after attending the funeral OF
their mother, Mrs. George Vincent;
they passed a few days with the fam
lily of Mrs. Brasure.
Mrs. Agnes Carson is a victim of
lumbago and unable to get about.
The funeral of Mrs. George Vincent
which was held at her late residence
last Wednesday, January 3rd, was in
charge of Rev. Eygretts, assisted by
Rev. NJ. w. Marine. The flowers were
very beautiful and in great prOiusiOn.
The singing by the choir of the Pres
byterian Church was very impressive.
The interment was made at Barratt's
Chapel cemetery by VIM. A. Berry, fu-
neral director. She was in the 9th
year of her life.
Mrs. Cyrus Warren has returned
from a visit to Philadelphia.
Mrs. George Kitchens and daughter
have returned from a visit to Will
mington.
Mrs. Enoch Jacobs is quite i'll with
influenza.
James Hurd is also a victim of
severe cold.
Coal is scarce at FELTON, and ma
jority of the people burn wood. Even
potato houses are heated with wood.

EVERY PARENT SHOULD ACT NOW

An opportunity for every organiza-
, ton in the State of Delaware to be-
come interested in the welfare of the
children of the state is given by the
State Nutrition Program that is be-
ing inaugurated this month.
Forty per cent of our school chill
dren are under nOurished. This means
poor health, susceptibility to disease,
low school marks, often a diseased
adult life. Practically every child that
is below normal can be brought back
by proper feeding. All that is neces-
sary is to arouse interest in the con-
dition Of the children among the
grOwn-ups and then present the rene
dy.
In order to have accurate informa-
tion available, a speakers bureau COM
posed of the child welfare nurses, the
home economics teachers and the
state officials of the Home Economics
Department of the State Board of Pub
lie Instruction, the Child Welfare
Commission and the Extension Depart
ment of Delaware College has been
formed. Any club or organization may
secure without expense the services
of any of these people for the purpose
of presenting the nutrition subject be-
fore their members. If every Organiza-
tiOn in Delaware would devote one
meeting to the health of Delaware's
children and consider it seriously
much would be accomplished in start
ing a constructive program that would
soon show results.
Thie state nutrition nrOgrau has
been started by the State Board of
Public Instruction, the Child Welfare
Commission and the Extension De-
partment of Delaware College but it
is not theirs alone. 1t belongs to ev-
cry person in Delaware interested in
keeping Delaware boys and girls we'll
and strong. If you are interested and
