denomination of U. S. Senator
Thomas F. Bayard by acclamatiOn at
the next Democratic State conven-
ton to be held in Dover the latter
part of August or the first part of
September, appears virtually GER
tain.
Reports have been current at var
ious times that the Senator would
have a fight on his hands if he wish
ed the nomination. Canvass of lead
ers in the party, however, indicated
that he will be unopposed for Sec
ond term.
The opinion is expressed by many
leaders that Kent County will be
permitted to select the party's nomi-
nee for Governor and that the coun-
ty's selection would be- endorsed by
the Wilmington, rural New Castle
and Sussex county caucuses.
Wilmington may also be allowed
the choice of nominee for attorney
general and Sussex county the nomi-

The convention, in addition to
making nominations for Senator,

TALBOT FARMERS MAKE
MONEY RAISING SHEEP
Over 10000 Sheep Are Grown On
Farms Of Maryland County

For the last year or two, many
farmers in Talbot county, Maryland,
have been increasing their flocks of
sheep until now the county ranks
second in the counties of Maryland
in the industry.
Queen Anne county ranks first.
At this time, there are approx
mately 10000 sheep raised in Talbot
county. The lambs from these fiocks
bring from $40 to $12 apiece, which
means about 100000 yearly.
In addition to this, there is ap-
125,00O pounds of wool
produced each year.
For several years, when wool was
low, the farmers, through the cOun-
ty agent, shipped their product to
factories in the south, where it was
made up into blankets and robes. In
this way the wool netted them about
sixty cents a pound. This year most
of the farmers sold their wool on
the market at fifty cents a pound,
netting them approximately $62,500
Adding what they received for
their lambs to what they received
for their wool, the 10000 sheep net
ted the farmers of the county about
S262, 500. The farmers say that this is
not all profit, but the majority of it
Is, as it costs less to raise sheep
than any other stock.

DELAWARE DEATH
RATE SHOWS DECLINE
Mortality Figures Lowest In History
Of State Board Of Health

Final figures tabulated for 1927
show that Delaware's mortality was
the lowest last year of any year
since mortality records have been
kept. DR.. Arthur T. Davis, executive
secretary of the State Board of
Health, pointed out that very large
majority of diseases where the death
rate was lowered was among what is
known as preventable ills, in which
the State Board of Health activities
had a marked effect. There were
2,4O2 deaths among whites and sos
deaths among negroes in 1927, MAX
ing a total of 3,007 deaths which was
a decrease of more than 400 COM
pared with S,477 death in 1926.
The rate for the State was 1850
per 100000 population. The white
rate was 1000 per 100000 and the
negro death rate 1000 per 100000.
There were no deaths from smallpox
or malaria.
Heart disease headed the list as
the chief fatality and the next in
ratio were cerebral hemorrhage,
nephritis, cancer, pneumonia, tuber-
culosis. Almost astounding results
have been obtained in the fight
against tuberculosis. Ten years ago,
headed the list but now
it is in sixth place. A comparison
of the reduction in various diseases
for the past two years is interesting.

RUMOR P. S. DU POINT
FOR LEGISLATURE
Other Prominent Men May Be NOm-
mated By Republicans

Pierre S. DUPONT, state tax com
missioner, will be asked by Republi-
can party leaders to be a candidate
for representative from the Third
Representative district of Whining
ton to the next session of the Cen
eral Assembly, it was learned this
week.
In view of the fact that in all
probability the next State Senate
will be in control of the Democrats,
a rumOr is current that the policy of
Republican leaders will be to send
to the House the most representative
members of their party.
1t is said that the reason in so do
ing is that the next session of the
legislature is likely to be called
upon to distribute the abnormal sur
plus that will be found existing in
the State School Fund and the Sink
ing Fund.
This situation is expected to, I'M
dOubtedly, cause careful thought
from the best minds of the state as
to the best policy in handling these
funds. Due to this condition, it is
understood that Republican leaders
will request some of the most out
standing members of the party in
the State to be candidates for the

ANDREW J. LYNCH HURT
WHEN HIT BY AUTO
Prominent Sussex County Lawyer
Injured At Georgetown

Andrew J. Lynch, one of the most
prominent lawyers in Sussex coun-
ty, and one-time Democratic nomi-
nee for governor of the State, was
badly injured Monday when struck
by an automobile in front of his
office at Georgetown. His condition
is not regarded as critical, though
at first it was feared that his skull
was fractured. Physicians think it
best, however, to hold him under
observation for time before send
ing him to a hospital.
Mr.. Lynch left his Office and
started across the street to the
Court House to look at some rec
ords and stepped off the curb di-
rectly in front of an automobile
driven by John Macklin, of George
town. He was struck by the ma
chine and thrown to the street.
He received a severe cash over
the right eye, an injured hip and
right arm. He was taken to the
Office of DR.. G. Frank Jones, close
by, where DR.. Jones made an exam.
ination and gave first aid, after
which he was removed to his home
in the American Legion ambulance.
Mr.. Lynch is we'll known to most
people in the State. He is active in
work in Delaware, and is
counsel for a number of banks and
other large concerns in Sussex.
