NEW CONCERN TAKES OVER THE
WELLINGTON uIGHT-POWER LINE
COMPANY WILL LIGHT MASSEY,
GALENA AND SUDLERSVILLE
Southern Light & Power Company,
Said to Be Controlled by Ohio Capt.
tai, Purchases MillingtOn Company

The Southern Light and Power
Company of Maryland has purchased
the Mililngton Electric Light and
Power Company lines and plant from
C. S. Church, who has recently de
veloped the property. The purchase
price was not made public. Lines
from over at Millington, Md, have al
ready been extended to Massey and
Galena, Md, and Sudlersville, Md,
line to be constructed. The purchas-
ing company is understood to be CON
trolled by Ohio capital, and the new
owners contemplate extending addi-
tional lines to various points in Queen
Anne's County. Efforts to acquire
the municipal electric light and power
plant in Centreville, Md, together with
pole lines and equipment owned by
the towns of Queenstown and Church
Hill, were renewed by ]. H. Drake,
vice-president of the Eastern Shore
Public Service Company. One of the
most interesting developments in con-
nection with the renewal of the orig
inal S160,000 offer for the local plant,
| is the statement in a letter from Vice
President Drake to the effect his cor
poration would be willing "to pay a
price in excess of $16O,OOO if the Pub
! lie Service Commission should deter
mine, after a thorough investigation
that the value of your property is in
excess of the price we are offering.
It has been stated by two officials that
they believed the Centreville plant i:
worth more than the $16O,OOO figure
and this letter indicates a willingness
on the part of the Eastern Shore Ser
vice Company to pay more if a survey
discloses greater value.

GRAPE GROWERS GIVEN AID
Russell E. Wilson Sends Them Data
as to Control of Berry Moths


Two hundred grape growers in Kent
county and the surrounding territory
are having their attention called by
Russell E. Wilson, Kent County Agent
to the Importance Of following sani-
tary practices in addition to thorough
and timely spraying in the control Of
the grape berry moth which has been
causing considerable loss to the crop
in many of the vineyards during the
past two years. There are a number
of vineyards in the Smyrna Brenford
grape belt. In making a survey Of
several grape vineyards this spring in
connection with the control program
for the berry moth, DR.. H. L. Dozier,
entomologist Of the Delaware Expert
ment Station, points out the fact that
the hedge rows, stubble, and the wind
blown collections Of grape leaves are
the chief sources Of infestation, as
such places provide excellent shelter
in which this insect may pass through
the winter. The favorite hiding place
of the overwintering adult leaf hop
pers is also beneath old leaves, so the
burning of these leaves and other rub
biSh, therefore, will not only destroy
large numbers of berry moths and leaf
hoppers, but such a practice will like
wise prove great factor in reducing
the spread of fungous diseases. Just
previous to the time when grapes were
starting to color last summer heavy
| losses were noted in several vineyards
adjoining those places in which leaves
had collected the previous winter.
Since the worms of the berry moth
are known to be Matching over a per-
iod of nearly a month, the value of
a sufficient amount of arsenate of lead
| in the pre- blossom and after-blossom
sprays cannot be over emphasized, as
every effort should be concentrated to-
ward controlling the first brood. A
sticker and spreader such as the
caseinate spreaders may be used to a
good advantage in these two applica-
tions. In the spraying of vineyards
the trailer method has been found to
give much better results than any of
/ the set-arm arrangements, but which
ever method if used it is essential that
good pressure be maintained in order
that each grape cluster may be thor
oughly covered. As the worms of the
berry moth have the habit of webbing
a number of grapes together, and in
view of the fact that they usually
work from the inside of the cluster,
the lead poison must be driven well
into each cluster if the spraying is
to be effective. If growers fail to
properly control the first brood, the
loss of practically the entire crop will
likely result, and in case of heavy in
festation late in the season the only
course to follow is to spray with high
pressure to prevent a further spread
and winter carry-over. The burning
of old leaves and rubbish near the
vineyards is also being recommended
by DR.. T. F. Manns, plant pathologist
of the Delaware Experiment Station
for the control of fungous diseases
and this practice in addition to thor
ough and timely spraying during the
season will add greatly to the profits
from the grape crop in this section OF
the country.
