WILL WIDEN DU POINT
ROAD THROUGH SUSSEX
Thirty-Five Mile Stretch, Milford To
SeIbyvilIe, In Next Years Schedule

bodybuilding planned for 1928,
according to c. D. Buck, chief en-
gineer of the State Highway Depart
ment, will largely be devoted to
widening present highways and also
the widening of railroad crossings.
One of the sections of road which
the State Highway Commission is
considering widening is that stretch
from Milford to Selbyville, a dis
lance of 35 mics. The road will be
increased from IA feet to 20 feet.
For several years past it has been
apparent that this stretch of road
must be widened. The first part of
the du Point Highway to be con-
structed, because of its extreme mar
rowness, it has rapidly become over
crowded. Information that it will
be widened is more than pleasing to
Sussex Counties who use the road.
Another important activity which
depends upon the citizens of Mar
shallton and Elsmere is the con-
struction of sidewalks through those
towns along the route of the high
way. At the present time there is
no sidewalk on which pedestrians
may walk. They are of necessity
compelled to walk on the highway.
The State Highway Commission, 1t
is stated, is willing to construct the
sidewalks providing the towns will
arrange for the necessary ground.

MAJOR HOWELL
TO SURVEY INLET
Board of Engineers Authorizes Work
At Indian River

Representative Robert G. Houston
of Delaware, who will serve the re-
mainder of his present term as
mebmer of the Committee on Rivers
and Harbors has been advised by
the Board of Engineers of the Army
that Major Howell, district engineer
at Wilmington, had been instructed
to make an estimated cost survey of
the proposal to reopen the Indian
River inlet.
Representative Houston explains
that since this step has been taken
it is a definite move toward accom-
plishment of his drive to bring about
the reopening of the inlet, for which
he has constantly worked since he
became a member of Congress.
If the cost is not excessive, the
only other obstacle to be overcome
will be in getting an appropriation
through to complete the work. 1t is
believed Mr.. Houston and other
members of the Delaware delegation
who have co-operated on this mat
ter will be successful in obtaining
the necessary funds for the work.

TALKS ON PROPER FEED
Hatcherymen's Association Enjoy
Fine Program At Georgetown.

A most interesting, helpful and
educational program was given be-
fore the Del-Mar-Va Hatcherymen's
Association at Georgetown Friday,
December 8, by representative of
the poultry department of the Pur-
ina Mills. Many of the leading
hatcherymen of the peninsula were
present and voiced their approval
of the chick service plan that the
mills are offering them toward es-
tablishing the hatcheryman's bus
mess on more solid foundation.
Mr.. Sam Hem, of the poultry de-
partment, presented the plan.
Problems of vital interest to both
the hatcherymen and the flock own
ers' who supply the hatcheries with
eggs, were discussed and practical
ways and means of controlling them
were given.
A very interesting talk was given
by Mr.. J. e. Burger of the poultry
feed department of the Purina Mills,
on nutrition. This was followed by
an educational play entitled "The
Bad Egg" This play brought out
some mighty interesting and help
full suggestions as to the proper way
to handle the laying and breeding
flock. and also the proper methods
of handling the baby chick from
the first feeding until maturity. Mr..
