Influencing Grain Market Trading

The farmer, by using his radio to
keep in touch with market condi-

financial position, has been putting
into play his strategy of holding.
In recent years spectators have
taken it for granted that the grow
er would dump his crop on the
market just as soon as it was har-
vested. Such is said to have been
his practice since the post war aS-
ricultural depression struck. But
this season, according TO traders,
while the crop is small the growers
are adding to buyers troubles by
hanging on to their wheat In the
expectation of a So return.

ject will be thrashed out during the
summer and fall months in order
that definite legislative program
may be presented to Congress. The
public never realizes the Importance
of railroads, it is said, until rates
are raised or tracks are abandoned.
It is claimed that the troubles of the
railroad reVolve around the war f.
nancing arrangements by which they
were forced to pay six per cent for
government loans, then fully pro-
tected by collateral. A bill propos-
ing to reduce the rate to Az per
cent, the same which prevails on
other government loans, failed at the
last Congress.
1t is proposed to allow voluntary
consolidation within period of five
years. If these so-called "weak"
roads do not work out their own
salvation within that time they will
be forced to tie up with their more
powerful rail systems in order to
provide an adequate system of trans
portation and make it paying prop
osition.
The reform of the Federal Trade
Commission has made considerable
progress. The policies and proceed
ures of this federal agency, which
has been severely criticized for a
number of years, have been conf
pletely changed. Perhaps the most
significant move has been the decis-
ion of the Commission to undertake
no investigation directed by Con-
gress where the subject matter is
now legally within the jurisdiction
of Congress. Notice has also been
served upon business interests that
the Commission will no longer in
vestigate petty complaints about
business trade practices. These vic
tories by the conservative element
will undoubtedly irritate the SOCIAL
ed radical agitators, but their hands
are tied for a time at least.

worthy the regard of good man,
for he has devoted his life to build
ing up a weekly newspaper of which
Delawareans are proud and whose
efforts have been been crowned with
success, as a steady and earnest ad-
vocate as we'll as a vigorous fighter
for that which is best in civil gov
ernment and the welfare of his home
town, his county and his state.
"Jim''-for it does not seem right
to say "Mr." or even "James"-so it

a rural printer and newspaper pub
Usher, which he has loyalty follow
ed through a useful life, always with
his aim set high for his paper. He
has lived to see success crown his
efforts in that and other ways in his
life affairs.
For more than half a century
"Jim" dreamed, worked, lived and
grew towards the top of his am
bitions. His life was full of business
and public affairs; but there was al

but ever new; until just a few years
ago, when the little God of Love, shot
deep and pressed home the longing
for mate and home, where the
evening shadows of life may come in
the sacred surroundings with the
woman of our pride and affection, to
bring peace and happiness.
Today Jim Wickes" celebrates
his fifty-seventh birthday anniver-
sary, by awarding the contract for
building a handsome bungalow home
on South State street, Dover, which
will plant about nine thousand dol
lars of the accumulations, and bring
to his life realization of dreams;
dreams that have come true, by abil-
ity, hard work and persistent effort.
"Jim" Wickes has the honor to be
the first to create a modern weekly
newspaper in Delaware or on the
Delmarvia Peninsula and he is the
leading manager and director of that
business now in active work that we
know.
We feel like giving three lusty
cheers for "Jim Wickes" and his
State News; but, lets make it fifty
seven in honor of a well spent life
which has elevated the weekly news
papers and will be a power for the
future welfare of Delaware.
Our regards and best wishes for
"Jim Wickes" and his paper.

TO CREDIT of the members of the
House of Representatives at Dover,
the bill to abolish the whipping post
as a means of punishment in Della
ware, was defeated by vote Of thir-
ty-one to one; the lone vote for the
bill being cast by the member who
introduced it. There are many laws
and customs, which have been used
for regulating punishment of Grim
inals who break the laws, which
have been reasonably effective as
protective measures against crimes
of a certain character; but the
whipping post has been retained, and
wisely retained by the people Of Del
aware for burglary, theft and pos
sibly one or more crimes. The more
that the radical element bawls out
Delaware for using the whipping
post as barbarious and cruel, the
more fixed is the determination OF
the people of Delaware to retain
this especial punishment for crimi-
nails. 1t would be well to regard
the State of Delaware with a sense
of pride, that the people persist and
retain this method of treating Grim
inals to liberal and well laid on
doses of the whip at her whipping
post. 1t is only the sentimentalists'
or those who dream of abolishing
war from the face Of the earth, that
keep this agitation before legisla-
lures, and Delaware Will do well to
refuse to listen to their visionary
ideas and dreams.

NEW CENTURY CLUB

The New Century Club held its
noon with the second vice president
Mrs. c. D. Abbott, presiding. The
minutes of the last meeting ana

can Flower Gardens. Mrs. Hall then
read a very interesting article
Making America The Garden Spot
of the World" advocating the plant
ing of trees, shrubs and flowers
around our homes, schools, churches
and along our highways, also sug-
gesting the planting of the different
species of trees, not only on Arbor
Day, which President Cleveland orig
mated and is observed mostly by the
schools, but all during the seasons
adaptable to the growth Of different
trees.
"Flowers That Bloom in the
Spring" was beautifully sung by
Mrs. S. G. Evans and Mrs. Thomas
Davis in duet, and was warmly ap-
plauded.
Mrs. Thomas Davis gave very in
structive talk on the history of the
rose, gladiOla, peonies, petunia and
other flowers; this was followed by
a discussion on various phases OF
flower culture.
Mrs. S. c. Evans read an article
describing the wonderful flower
gardens in Sing Sing prison, which
were the resultant work of the con-
victs, being started by Chas. Chaplin

good program is assured and mem
bers are urged to come out and en-
joy these splendid entertainments.
