African Prickly Pear Has Its Good Points

The prickly pear Is said to be so
tenacious of life that leaf or even a
small portion of leaf, if thrown on
the ground, strikes out roots within a
short time and becomes the parent of
a fast-growing plant.
Mischievous though the African
prickly pear may be, it is not without
it's good qualities. Its juicy fruit,
though rather deficient in flavor, Is
delightfully."- cool and refreshing in the
dry heat of summer, and kind of
treacle is made from it.
Great caution is pecessary in peel
ing this curious fruit, the proper way
being to impale the fruit on a fork
or stick while one cuts it open and
removes the skin. The person who
undertakes to pluck this treacherous
fruit with .unguarded fingers meets
with an experience he does not soon
forget. Concentrated essence of sting
ing nettle seems all at once to assail
hands, lips and tongue, and the skin
wherever it comes in contact with the
il!-natured fruit, is covered with a
group OF minute bristly hairs, appar-

Speaking Of striped materials, out

these silks Is the inspiration which

night was a brief address by James
w. Hopkins, of Lewese, sweepstakes
winner at the county show and also
of the state corn show held in Mid
dletown during January of this year.
Mr.. Hopkins, who is considered the
best corn grower in Delaware, told
of his method of selection of seed
corn and has within the past ten
years raised the standard of the
crop. That the soil of lower Della
ware can produce as good, if not the
best corn, on the Peninsula, is the
firm conviction of Mr.. Hopkins. A
demonstration of a good and poor
crop of corn was given by County
Agent Vaughn. He pressed home the
necessity of using a cover crop and
potash in order to bring up the soil
fertility to produce good corn. There
was on display a basket of corn
where a cover crop and potash had
been used. This was compared with
an adjoining piece of land where
potash and a cover crop had not
been used. The fertile field produced
81 bushels against 8 which had not
been given the proper care. Both
fields had been cultivated about the
same, but one farmer believed in
using potash while his neighbor con-
ceived the idea that it was waste
of money. The crop showed the re-
suits.
