gun about April 1st. Grading of
the right of way is under way and
will be completed in few days.
Tyndall & Wilson have bought of
Carlton Draper the twenty-acre
tract of pine timber near town. Mr..
Draper intends, after the timber is
removed. to clear up the ground
for cultivation.
The sowing of peas for the can
neries is going on rapidly since the
advent of spring-like weather in
Broadkill hundred. The acreage will
be reduced to about two-thirds of
the usual planting because of the
condition of the market for this
vegetable. To make up for this the
canneries have contracted for an in
creased acreage of lima beans.
A number of farmers this week
cleared the bushes from the side OF
a half-acre stretch of road, known
as "Stingy Lane" running from
the back road from Milton to Broad
kill Neck to the front road. A
quantity of sawdust was hauled
and put in the holes and deep ruts
also. This road was made many
years ago by the owners of the
properties adjoining to give an out
let during the winter months when
the back road is veritable quag--
mire. The bushes have encroached
upon the right of way little by lit
tie through neglect until it became
almost impossible. An effort Will
be made by the residents OF the
back-rOad section to have the road
taken over by the county, that the
! commissioners may keep it in or
der. This small section of road not
only makes the distance to Milton
shorter, but makes it possible to
shun a bad section of clay road in
| front of the farm of Nathan VIII
liams, that is always in a deplor-
able condition in the winter months
| A petition to the road commission
ers to take over this road will be
circulated among the residents OF
this section in a few days and a
delegation will wait upon the Levy
Court asking that this be done.
