MILFORD PUBLIC

[Continued from frst paael

1929. The Board of Education is
doing all that it can to solve the
problem, and the superintendent,
Robert E. Shilling, is working night
and day (and has been for the past
month"; to get the work laid out for
the teachers to put over with the
least friction and for the best in
terest of the children.
Everything will not be as it is de-
sired, but it is arranged with the
idea of getting the best results from
the service possible.
The teachers have cooperated in
the work as far as possible, and it
is now up to the parents to help, not
knock about a situation they know
absolutely nothing. Let all help to
get over the present school year just
opening. Parents can help by en-
forcing discipline of the children.
The teachers will perform their du-
ties without fear OF favor, and the
Board of Education will administer
the business of the school, with de-
sire to get the best results for the
children, and make Milford Public
Schools the highest in standing in
Delaware.
This may be taken as a statement
of the Board of Education to the
people of Milford, and especially
the parents of children in the pub
lie schools of this town.

rier, he refers the matter to the
Commodity Chairman covering his
particular commodity. If the prob
lem presented is local in character,
the Commodity Chairman handles it
with the member of the Contact
Committee representing the road in
volved, or with the district manager
: of the Car Service Division; if it
affects the entire industry, it be-
comes a matter for the considera-
tion of the entire committee.
The reports of these Commodity
COMMITTEES give a very close and
accurate check on prospective busi-
ness conditions. There are no dues
or assessments applying to member
ship. All the services undertaken
: by Commodity chairmen are volun-
tary and performed because of their
: appreciation of the fact that the
benefits to be derived are well worth
the effort expended.
This will be the first time this
organization ever has met in Will
, mington. Normally there are ap-
proximately 500 in attendance. 1t
is expected that in view of the bene-
ficial results they may obtain, a
large number of business and in
dustrial representatives from this
territory will attend. The sessions
will open about 9 o'clock, and, with
a luncheon recess at noon, continue |
until approximately 4.30 in the af- |

all the creeks that are in Delaware
where there are oyster beds as well
as the Delaware side of the Bay.
Samples of the water, of oysters
in the shell and of opened oysters
will be examined at the laboratory
of the State Board of Health to de-
termine whether there is any pollu-
ton.
Later on when the oyster shuck-
ing houses open, Mr.. Beckett will in
spect them and their surroundings
and make inquiry concerning the
employees. The State law demands
all employers shall be free from in
sidious diseases. In this way, ship
ments of oysters from Delaware will
carry the protection and guarantee
of the State Board of Health, of
satisfactory inspection.
Three more oyster shucking hous-
es have been constructed since last
winter, and the prospects are that
the oyster season this year will be
equally as good if not better than
last year.

FARMERS TO CONTROL
WEEVIL IN WHEAT
ECensinse4 from frss taasl

heavier than air. The fumes are
deadly poisonous to all forms of in
sect life, but they are not considered
harmful to people unless used in
excessive quantities in a closed
room or building. In using this
material, however, it is necessary to
I keep it away from fire, as it is
highly inflammable and will readily
ignite when exposed to an open
| fame.
In treating wheat for the control
of the weevil it IS recommended that
five pounds of this carbon bisulphide
be used for every thousand cubic
feet of bin space, or for every one
hundred bushels Of grain. If the
wheat to be treated is in a tight bin
this liquid may be poured in shall
low pans which are set at intervals
of three or four feet over the sur
face of the grain. On a warm day
when the temperature is around 20
degrees F., this liquid will evaporate
very quickly and thoroughly pene-
trate to the bottom of the bin and
kill all the insects with which it
comes in contact If the bin is not
tight and there is a possibility Of air
currents passing through it is adj
visable to apply the carbon bisul-
phide by means of sprinklfng can
and then quickly follow this opera
ton by covering the wheat with
blankets or canvas. This will pre-
vent the fumes from escaping and
will also aid in forcing the gas
down into the wheat. Since this
material is poisonous, it is well to
start the treatment in the far side
of the bin and then work rapidly
toward the door or opening in order
to not breathe any more of the
fumes than is necessary.
After being treated the wheat |
should be allowed to remain cover |
ed, or the bin kept tightly sealed, for |
forty-eight hours if the grain is not |
to be used for seed purposes, and |
only thirty-six hours in case it is
to be used for seed. The grain will
not be injured for food purposes if
left covered for a period of forty
eight hours. Neither will it be very
severely damaged for seeding if left
covered for only thirty-six hours. In
case the treated grain is to be sown,
however, it is well to have a germi-
nation test made of the seed, and
hen increase the rate of seeding ac-
,ording to the percentage of germi-
nation. This test will be made free
If charge by the State Board of Ag-
'iculture in its seed laboratory in
Dover.
Following this treatment the COW
rs should be removed, OF the bin
opened, to allow the grain to become
thoroughly ventilated by free cir
ulation of fresh air. In order to
prevent a possibly re-infestation of
veevils, however, it is advisable to
-eep the wheat covered after it has
'een aired for few days. 1t is also
good practice to examine the grain
rom time to time throughout the -,
eriod that it is being kept in stor- !
ge, as it may be necessary to re- :
eat this treatment in the event :
hese insects appear again. :

The Bureau of Aeronautics Of the
Navy has ordered all available
planes at their Anacostia Field,
Washington, D. c., to Wilmington,
for the meet. The number of planes
that will represent the Navy is un-
known at this time, although it is
expected that there will be at least
ten.
Assurance has also been received
by Mr.. DUPONT that the Marine
Corps will have its crack pilots and
that the National Guards of Mary
land, Pennsylvania and New York
will have planes entered.
In addition to these service repre-
sentations, two races with generous
cash prizes attached will draw a
large number of civilian pilots.
One is a thirty-five-mile race over
a five-mile course, and the other is
a fifty-mile race over a five-mile
course. In view of the large num-
ber of civilians who will enter for
these events, it is likely that elimi-
nation contests will be held in the
of the day of the meet.
