be vitality interested in the program
for the third day of this Short
Course, for at this time the subject
of agricultural economics will be
discussed from its various angles as
it pertains to the production and
marketing of our farm products. AL
though agricultural economics COW
ers a large field of related subjects,
and is perhaps the most important
factor in governing our present day
system of farming, it particularly
affects the fruit and truck growers
in that a more uniform system OF
grading and packing is becoming
necessary for these groups OF far
mers to realize more profits from
their crops. This subject also brings
to the attention of the farmers the
importance of limited acreage and
the economic production of practl-
cally every crop that is being grown
on the Peninsula at the present
time.
A completed program giving the
various subjects to be discussed and
the different speakers who will ap-
pear on the program for each OF
these three days, however, will be
announced later when the final
plans have been made by Director
McCue. The members of the F1ult-
land Grange and the people in gen
eral throughout the county and state
have always given the Farmers
Short Course at Camden their near
tiest support and cooperation in the
past three years in which these
meetings have been held in this
community, and it is expected that
another large crowd of interested
farmers and their families will be IN
attendance again this year on March
l. 2 and 8, to discuss some Of the
problems of our present day agrl-
culture.
ARRANGEMENTS are also being made
by the ladies of Fruitland Grange to
serve dinners at a nominal cost per
plate at noon on each of these three
days for the convenience of those
who are attending the different ses-
sions of the Short Course.

Milford High lost an eXcellenI
chance to go up in the percentage
column last week in their drive for
the Southwestern Delaware Basket
Ball Championship. They dropped a
loosely played game to Laurel on
LaureFs floor, score 80 to 15.
The Milford team felt the absence
of their star forward IKE" Warren
and their play seemed to lack the
dash and spirit that characterized
the Seaford contest.
A large crowd of Milford rooters
accompanied the team. "Dal" Marvel
was the high scorer for Laurel,
while Kitchens and Tatman kept
Milford in the running.
Milford still has a chance for the
championship. If Laurel defeats Sea-
ford tonight, the locals will have an
opportunity to tie for the lead when
they play Laurel here.
Base ball season will soon be here.
Already base balls ana gloves are III
evidence on the playground at the
school.
Milford plays Delmar at Delmar
tonight. IL
Elwood Tatman was fright" last
