BUREAU OF MARKETS REPORT
Tabulated Record of Strawberry Crop
SHOWS Over 1000 Carloads Shipped;
Selbyville and BridgevilIe Centers

'Aiic anu DAluSeVuIe CenterS
From Delaawre-SelbyvilIe andR
This is the first year that the Bu-
reau of Markets has been able to
closely estimate the Strawberries
grown commercially in this state. in
asmuch as up to this year no record
was kept of the amount of strawber-
mes that were hauled by truck: but
this year, the number of Strawberries
moved by rail being available, as we'll
as the number moved by truck and
the number used for cold pack and
preserving, the Bureau feels the num-
Der OF crates stated below is a close
estimate of the number of strawber-
res produced in Delaware this vear
lhe first car of strawberries was
shipped this season on May 30. and
the last car on June 26. There were
shipped by freight from the state of
Delaware this year a total of 963 car
loads and by express from the state
OF Delaware, 33S carloads, thus max
ing total of 1901 carloads of straw
berries which We're forwarded from
the state of Delaware by rail during
the season. The average number of
crates loaded to the car is 224. This
makes total of 291,424 crates. The
total number of crates forwarded bv
truck from the state of Delaware dur
ing the 1924 season was 1O8.691 and
the total number of crates used for
preserving and cold pack purposes
was 1855. Adding the number of
crates shipped by rail, the number
shipped by truck, and the number
used for preserving and cold packing.
We have a total of 448,8OO crates. or
l4,36l 800 quarts of strawberries
which were produced commercially in
Delaware this year. This number Of
quarts computed in carloads makes
the total of 1904 carloads which were
moved from Delaware this year. It
IS impossible to make an estimate as
to the average price per crate receiv-
ed, owing to the wide range of quail
lty and market conditions; however
on the basis of three cents a quart
paid to the pickers, and a commercial
crop of 14,361, 500 quarts produced in
this state, we know that the amount
paid to pickers alone was around
S43O,OOO0O. Selbyville and Bridge
vile are the largest shipping points
In the state for Strawberries. The
crop in Delaware this year was good
so far as quantity was concerned. The
wet weather during the shipping sea-
son, IN some cases, caused the straw
berries to become water-soaked so
that they did not carry we'll to the
distant markets, and they, of course,
did not bring very high price, how
ever, the season is generally regarded
as fairly successful from the growers
standpoint.

RIFLE TEAM FOR CAMP PERRY
Selection of team to Compete in Ma
tiOnal Matches is Under Way in State

Selection of team to Compete in Ma
tiOnal Matches is Under Way in State
Acting on last minute advice that
Civilian Rife Teams will compete in
the National Rife Matches at Camp
Perry, Ohio, during the month of Sep
tember the work of selecting men for
places on the Delaware team was
started yesterday. Under the provi-
slons all expenses for a months stay
at the Camp Perry range are borne
by the Government thus affording an
excellent vacation on one of Ameri-
cas- most beautiful Fairgrounds, the
shores of Lake Erie. Camp Perry
has one Of the finest beaches on the
lake and has stores, restaurants and
an excellent mess hall. Places on the
team are open to any citizen of the
State of Delaware who is interested
in rifle shooting and are not confined
to top notch shooters only. Men who
have had little or no rife practice are
just as desirable as the old timers and
for the benefit of such team members
a school of instruction is conducted at
the range for the first two weeks of
the match. Each man is taught to
shoot under the supervision of a com
petent coach and in fact it is for the
purpose of training new men in the
use of the rational arm that the
Government has made this very liber-
al offer to civilians. Lack of knowl-
edge Of rifle shooting is therefore no
detriment to anyone desiring to make
place on the team. New men who
have never before attended National
Rife Match must be at Camp Perry
on September 5th and stay until the
close of the match on October End.
Special pullman accommodations will
be arranged both ways so that team
members can go straight thru without
change. Those desiring to avail
themselves Of this exceptional opPor-
tunity to spend a months vacation
with no expense should communicate
with r. S. Cashell, 28O6 West Street,
Wilmington, Del.

ANNUAL FARM BUREAU PICNIC

Whi De neId AT Bowers Beach Fri
day, Next-Fine Program Arrang-
ed of Interest To the Farmers
The annual picnic of the Kent
County Farm Bureau this wear will
be held at Bowers Beach next Friday.
August 29. This announcement has
been issued from the county Office
where detailed plans are being formu-
lated by the various committees in
charge to make this picnic the largest
and best outing the County Farm Bu-
reau has ever staged since its organi-
zation six years ago in this State. At
the last meeting of the executive COM
mittee, it was decided to hold this an
nual picnic at Bowers Beach as this
place is as nearly centrally located as
any bay-shore resort with reference
to Kent County. In view of this ar
rangement, it should therefore be
easily accessible to all the farmers
and their families living in the cen
tral part of the State A cordial in
vitatiOn is being extended to all rural
folks to attend this picnic and it is
expected that the beach will be filled
with hundreds of Delaware farmers
next Friday. A special committee
composed of Arthur F. Dawes and
John NJ. Roe will attend to all the
preliminary arrangements for this
outing so that everything will be in
readiness when the crowd arrives on
Friday morning to spend an enjoyable
Gay at this famous beach. One of the
chief features of this picnic this year
will be the sports and games which
are being planned for everybody who
cares to take part in them. w. V.
Cosden, D. NJ. Wilson, R. Harry Viii
son, Mrs. George Collins and Mrs.
Harry Smith have been appointed to
organize these amusements and are
busy outlining stunts and games that
will appeal to everyone. There will
be horseshoe pitching and baseball
games for the men as we'll as suitable
games and entertainments for the la
dies. Some of the champion horse
shoe pitchers will represent Kent
County in the Interstate Tournament
which will be held at the Delaware
State Fair this year during the week
of September 9 to 13. All families
are requested to bring their basket
dinners and come prepared to spend
the entire day. Refreshments will be
sold on the grounds by the manage
ment of the beach. All visitors will
have the privilege of using the
grounds for eating their dinners, and
there will also be free parking spaces
for the many machines which will ar
rive at the beach on that day.

TO MOVE HEALTH LABORATORY
Reported That State Center Will Be
Moved From Newark to Dover

1t is again reported that the local
laboratory of the State Board of
Health is to be moved to Dover. Of
fetal orders have not been formally
received, it was stated. The main
reason for the establishment of the
State Laboratories at Dover is for
geographical advantage that will be
obtained by having it centrally locat-
ed with respect to all parts of the
state and thus provide for the receipt
of specimens or analysis within ap-
proXimately four hours from time of
shipment. At the present time, spec
linens mailed from the southern part
of the state require eight or more
hours and when reaching the labor
atory are too old to have any value
for analytical purposes. When va
Gated, the laboratory building will be
equipped with physical apparatus of
the Department of Physics of the
University of Delaware and with the
opening of the fall semester will be-
come definitely organized as a physi-
cal laboratory. The building was or
iginally constructed to care for the
agricultural work, and as such it
functioned for some years previous to
its occupancy by the State Board of
Health Laboratories. The Child We'll
fare work, under the direction of Miss
Elizabeth Wigglesworth, for some
time has occupied two rooms on the
first floor of the laboratory. 1t will
be conducted in quarters Quilted
with all modern equipment and main
tanned in Elliott Hall.

WOODLAND BEACH LOT SALES

7ng-Number of Lots Disnnsed of


saturday and Was Very EncOurag-
ng-Number of Lots Disposed of
Much interest was had last Friday
and Saturday in the sale of cottages
and bayview building sites of the
Eastern Realty Company, the new
owners of Woodland Beach. The
sale was conducted by Mr.. Edmonston
one OF auctiOneers of the Divie Realty
Company,and was we'll attended. Svl-
vester's Concert Band of Smyrna
furnished music, first playing on "Four
Corners" at Smyrna, followed with a
number of selections at Woodland
Beach. w. ]. Satterfeld and Paul
Harry of the Eastern Realty Com
pany, the new owners, had laid off
about 300 building lots. There was
a demand for the choice sites, but the
owners sold only a few of these and
then put up the lots back from the
beach and in the grove. These lots
sold anywhere from $3.50 to $500
plot according to location while the
cottages already built and the bay
front lots sold for a much higher
figure. There were Smyrna buyers
and buyers from a distance. At the
noon hour each day, a picnic dinner
was served. Not all the lots were
sold. Some were reserved for later
date, for the consensus of opinion is
that Woodland Beach is Coming
back" and after the improvements
are made to the hotel and pavilion
and the season starts up next year
with amusements, these sites will
take jump, and the buyers who got
in on the low offers made Friday and
Saturday will have a chance to realize
from their investment. One thing in
particular will cause building sites to-
jump and that is a good road from
Smyrna to Woodland Beach. Already
the owners of the resort and those
who purchased cottages and sites, to-
gether with the farmers and land
owners in Severson's Neck are talk
ing of meeting the Kent County Levy
Court with strong delegation ask
ing for concrete highway from the
Boulevard at Smyrna down Severson's
Neck as far as the main land extends
and a macadam road over the marsh.
A good road will boost land values
and the resort more than anything
else and this with plenty of whole
some amusements will make the old
resort grow. Last Sunday several
hundred cars were parked on the
Beach and large crowd went in
bathing. There is no finer bathing
beach and grove on the Delaware Bay
shore. This is conceded by every
body and once a good road is estab-
lished, and the resort gets under way,
it will attract patrons for miles

Lima beans, the first of last week
We're selling at 18 cents per quart

to 20 cents because of the shortage
due to lack of rain. Watermelons,
which usually sell in the lower Del

SALES OF AUTOTAGS
SHOW HUGE INCREASE
Total to Date for 1924 Exceeds by
$4,000 Number Taken Same
Period, 1923.

Approximately $4,000 more automo-
bile tags have been sold to District
residents thus far this year than
were issued during the same period
of 1928. according to Wade H.
Coombs, superintendent.
The total number that had been is
sued on September 10 last year was
99,605, as compared with 1851 this
year. 1t must be remembered, how
ever, that in 1928 Marylanders were
required to buy District license
plates, and about $4,000 of last years
tags went to Marylanders.
This means that the actual num-
Der Of tags sold to Washingtonians
last year was only 1906. Under
reciprocity Marylanders are not re-
CURED to buy District tags this year
The new automobile tags for 1925
Will arrive soon, and the superin-
tendent probably will begin issuing
them about December /. Officials now
are at work on a plan to expedite the
issuance of tags for next year by
having application cards already
filled out in the superintendent's Of
flee for all persons who will have
the same cars they had this year.
