MUsKRAT TRAPPERs ON JOB
Pelts Are Bringing $1.5O and Some
Large Catches Are Reported

Muskrat trappers are reporting
larger catches than any time during
the season. This is thought to be due
to the recent thaw and following good
weather which has cleared the marsh
es of ice. The price for muskrat
pelts ranges around $1.50, having ad-
vanced considerably recently because
of the poor catches during the bad
weather. Farmers are said to be hold
ing their pelts until the close of the
season in the hope of prices going
even higher than they are at present.
The condition of the fur is excellent,
which is also accounted for by the
cold winter. The animals themselves
are fat and in prime condition for the
market.

GRAPE GROWERS SEE YIELD
They Will EndeavOr to Have Fruit
Given Federal Inspection

OlNCH ICuClaA 1liSpCNbAOh
Grape growers of Delaware, most
of whom operate Vineyards located in
Kent County, round about Dover, are
looking forward to the best year and
are already making their plans for
inspection and marketing. Last sum
mer about so per cent of the grape
growers had their Vineyards inspected
and the fruit passed upon by Federal
inspectors. This year it is anticipat-
ed the number seeking Government
guarantees for their fruit will be at
least 25 per cent more and that with
in few years, practically every Del
awarean who raises grapes for mar
ket will have his product inspected
and approved. At this time w. 7.
Derickson, Chief of the Bureau of
Markets with the members of the
Grape Growers Association, is work
ing on a new form of certificate which
will be supplied the consignee. This
new form will indicate what grade of
grape is being shipped without going
innto as much detail as the certificate
of last year. Another item which the
growers are considering are the
standards fixed by the United States
Department of Agriculture and on
which standards the grapes are in
spected and rated. Within the next
two or three weeks, it is proposed to
hold meeting Of the grape growers
and finally decide upon certain ques-
tions that affect each member and the
association as a whole.
