Pierce's Administration we're passed
over his veto. They had to do chiefly
with the improvement of the water
ways of the West, including the Mis-

In LincOln's Administration not a
single measure was passed over his
veto, but in JOhnson's Administra-
ton in a single year no vetoed meas
ure failed to pass, and those thus
enacted numbered sixteen. President
Grant failed in one veto, that of the
famous Mary Anne Montgomery
case. Hayes in 1873 failed to carry
his veto of the Standard Silver Dol
lar measure. Arthur's veto OF the
River and Harbor bill was reversed.
Of the lis bills vetoed out of 9S7
in Cleveland's Administration, only
few were passed over his veto.
Chief anon gthese was an act gran
ting pensions, and a River and Har-
Dor bill providing the expenditure OF
S17,000,000 Immediately and an au-

crobe is concealed may or may not
have the disease, just as human be-
ings carry germs of disease in their
bodies all their lives and yet escape
an attack.
Having learned from officials of
other states how valuable the certifi-
cation of poultry has been to the
poultry raisers OF those states, the
Delaware Board of Agriculture, at
the last session of the legislature,
caused a bill to be prepared and
which was passed and became law,
authorizing the state board to ar
range for this certificatiOn. Certain
rules and regulations were passed by
the state board during the winter
and leg bands for chickens selected
and bought so that when flOcks were
certified the Identification tags or
leg bands would be ready.
The matter of certifcation is not
mandatory but purely voluntary on
the part of the raiser. Those who
raise eggs for market and want to
have it known that their eggs are
free from taint and disease may ap-
ply to the state board. Through the
cooperation of the poultry experts
of the University of Delaware, those
certificatiOn for their fOcks,
will be visited by an expert who will
make the examinations necessary
and those chickens, which have no
signs of disease, will be certified to,
and the farmer given leg bands for
them. A certificate for the flock will
also be issued, so that when the far
mer sells his eggs, or poultry, he can
have authority to prove that his
lock is free from taint.
When this is accomplished, Della
ware f1ocks that have been certified
o can advertise this fact and profit |
accordingly. There are many who |
nave already expressed a desire to
nave their flocks certified and their |
locks will be examined this summer.
But the issuance of a certificate does |
lot mean that future hocks will all |
)e certified to. AS long as the poul-
ry raiser keeps up the regulations,
md standards set by the state board, |
he certificate will continue in force, |
,ut according to the law enacted, |
he state board has the authority to |
evoke the certificate at any time |
when the regulations are broken or |

1000 Motor

tered This Year
Titling Department Serves Good
Purpose in Reducing Number
of Thefts

How the improved highways of
Delaware are being appreciated by
its residents is best illustrated by
the increased number of automo-
biles, trucks and motorcycles being
registered with the Titling Depart
ment of the Highway Commission.
This year more than 1900 motors
of some sort have been registered
and before the year is out this num-
Der may be increased another couple
of thousand.
The State Titling Department has
been in operation three years this
spring and in that time has proven
of great service to the State and
owners of machines for the way in
which it has aided in diminishing
automobile thefts by making it hard
for a thief to dispose of the car in
Delaware. It is easy to steal a car,
but if it is the desire to sell it in
this State, that is a harder PROPOSE
tion. No motor dealer, who is honest,
will buy a car until he ascertains
through the Titling Department at
Dover who the present owner of the
car is. If the man Offering the car for
sale is not the owner and is not au-
thorized to sell it, this fact is very
speedily developed. Because it is eX-
tremely difficult to sell stolen car
registered in this State within the
of the commonwealth,
makes the stealing of an automobile
of no value to the thief.
Many other states are now enact
ing laws creating titling depart
ments, and when all shall have pass
ed such modern legislation, the theft
of automobiles will be made even
less attractive, because of the diff
Guilty in disposing of them.
There has been some discussion
about the 81 charged for titling, but
Pennsylvania charges 50, and it is
stated if Delaware charged a like
amount the safeguards that could
be thrown about an automobile
would be doubly increased.
The State Highway police have
been a big help in preventiSs motor

STATE CERTIFICATION OF POULTRY,
UNDER new LAW, AIDS BREEDERS
Many Who Make Chicks And Eggs Business Finds Pays To Get
"O K" From State On FOcks

Culling of the hens from focks
that are nOn-prOductiVe and the GER
tifying of tlocks from disease are
two important steps which the State
Board OF Agriculture hopes to put
into more general operation this
summer. Culling of hens that do moi
lay is not new idea, but the certi-
4 flying of docks which has aided poul-
try raisers of other states wonder
fully, has never been tried out in
Delaware,
4 There has always been a big de-
mand for the poultry expert employ
ed by tho State Board of Agriculture
by farmers who want to set rid of
the hens that do not make money
for them. The expert has never been
able to Gull all the flOcks requested,
but this summer it is hoped to OBJ
tain more time for this expert so
that he may cover a larger territory
than in other years.
The process by which hens that
do not lay are eliminated is one
that does not require much inspec-
tion by the expert. A cursory eXami-
nation of the pelvic bones and the
color of the legs of the hen, are the
general methods, and to the man ac-
customed to judging flocks it re-
quires but moment or two to make
his decision. After the f1ocks have
been inspected and the nOn-prOduc-
tive sorted from those that lay, the
farmer quickly sells the nOn-paying
hens and is comfortably assured that
what he retains will bring him in a
revenue.
The plan to certify flocks of chick
ems, is believed to be the most i'm
portant forward step ever undertake
en- in this State. Raising of poultry
has gotten to such a high degree of
proficiency and science that owners
of poultry farms, who buy eggs for
Matching, now ask whether the eggs
are free from diseases, to which the
chicken may be subject. The money
making poultry raiser will not buy
eggs that are not certified. Delaware
hocks, so far as known, except a few,
are not certified, and consequently
the eggs are not demanded for
breeding purposes.
One of the most destructive dis
eases and one which most chickens !
are subject to is that of white diar-
rhea. The germ, or whatever it is, /
is carried in the hen and impaired to
the egg. so that chickens hatched
from eggs in which this germ of mi /

THE REWARD

The individual banker shouh be
much more than a mere lender OF
money, much more than a mere col
lector of interest. More than any
man in his community. he has the op-
portunity to guide the farmer along
lines Of safe progress and toward
substantial achievement. The banker
in an agricultural district must know
agriculture If he is to loan money to
farmers and uToa agricultural secur-
ity. In addition 10 that. the banker
is in touch with the activities Of the
business world lie has correspont-
ent banks in the larger cities; he
must, of necessity for the protection
OF his own business, look beyond the
horizon Of his immediate vicinity in
order to foresec imminent changsJ in
business conditions The banker has
the opportunity to he the poiIt OF
contact between the farmer and hese
many other activities of the business
world with which the farmers busi-
ness is so closely connected. The

WEATHER MAN
STRIKE BLOW
AT FARMERS

Farmers who thought their troubles
were over when corn planting began,
recently found that wet weather is
productive of disease IN the seed corn
they have planted.
Early this week c. c. Burns. county
farm adviser, was called to Inspect a
field near ST. Joseph and found that
destructive insects were working on
the grain that had been planted only
a week before.
This condition prevails throughout
the county, and there appears to be
no fayors shown TO those whose farms
are ON hikh ground. IL Is probable
that many fields will have TO be plant.
Four years of panic has brought the
farmer to his knees in supplication for
relief from the pressure that has
grown almost too heavy to bear.
Financially he is in serious situa-
ton, and many farmers are wholly
dependent upon this years crop to
save them from failure.
