the first place, there are interna-

Spanish territory, French co-opera-

Editor, Herald:
In your last issue of the Herald
there is an item alleged to be
given by me which is slightly mis-
leading and although the state
ment is true it is not the whole
truth. Kindly correct same. On
being asked as to the prospects of
the Lustre community l said thew
were good considering the drouth.
That the average yield would
most likely be between 10 and 12
bushels and that many fields
would make 20 bushels and some
might ever make better. Might
add that there are also fields that
will make around four bushels.
Yours truly,
A. A. DICK.

DEL-MAR-VA IN MOVE To LAND
"WHITE HOUSE" ON PENINSULA
OFFICIALS EXPRESS KEEN EN-
THUSIASM OVER THE PROPOSAL
Several Colonial Mansions Are Offer
ed Having Finest Attractions in
the Out-Of-DOOr Sports

Formal action in the procedure
which the Del-Mar-Va Eastern Shore
Association will follow in an effort to
secure the location of the Presidential
summer home on the Peninsula, was
officially takent at meeting of the eX-
ecutive committee at Salisbury. Fol
lowing informal discussion of the pro
iect and considering the several loca-
tlons thus far offered through the as
sociation, motion was adopted ap-
pointing a committee with instructions
to proceed with a survey and to ar
range for a conference with Congress
men and Senators at Washington, rep
resenting the Peninsula. President n.
B. Westcott named the following COM
mittee: DR.. G. Layton Grier, Milford,
Del; former Senator E. Dale Adkins,
Salisbury, Md; P. Watson Webb,
Cambridge, Md; Warner Ames, On
ancock, Va, and Edwin c. Totten,
member ex-officio. Officials of the as
sociation expressed keen enthusiasm
over the proposal to secure the Sum
mer White House for Del-Mar-Va.
Among the many practical reasons ad-
vanced as to why the Peninsula should
be equally as attractive as any other
section is the fact that several Of the
locations offered would permit access
not only by the finest motor routes,
train, but, ferry and airplane but
would allow transportation from the
Capital on the Presidential yacht.
Among the locations already submit
ted are handsome old estates, rich in
historic lore, delightful in setting and
providing the very finest attractions
in the out-of-door sports, which Pres
ident-elect Hoover is known to enjoy.
The proximity of the Peninsula to
Washington was emphasized as an
outstanding feature which the asso-
citation officials believe may receive
serious consideration. They advance
the view that location on the PENN
sula would really make the Presiden-
tial summer residence available thru
out the entire year and would provide
the early fall and winter sports in
cunning and fishing, surpassed by no
other section.

BEETLE QUARANTINE In STATE
All Of Delaware, North Of SUSSEX
County Line. Included This Year

Effective February Is all of Della
ware, north of the Sussex county line,
will be included in the Japanese beetle
quarantine according to revised regu-
lations issued Tuesday Of last week in
Washington at the office of the Secre-
tary of Agriculture All of the town
of Milford which lies in both counties
will be included in the quarantine.
Last year the quarantine affected only
parts Of New Castle county. Discov-
cry Of many Of the beetles in Kent
county has led to the placing of the
quarantine on this county also. The
revised regulations modify the regula-
tons governing the interstate move
ment Of farm products, nursery stocks
and certain other materials, including
sand, soil, earth, peat, compost and
manure. They also bring certain parts
Of Maryland and Virginia under the
ban for the first time. New territory
placed in the ban includes Cecil coun-
ty, Maryland, except the voting pre-
cinct Of Cecilton; the entire District of
Columbia; the city of Alexandria and
Arlington County. Provisions Of the
quarantine required inspection and
certification Of farm products during
the summer months from June 15 to
October Is, except Irish and sweet po-
tatoes, when free from soil, water
melons, died fruits, dried vegetables,
seeds, grains, mushrooms, onion sets,
broom corn, and when used for pack
ing articles other than fruits and veg
etables, hay and straw. The revised
regulations warn that trucks, wagons,
boats, cars and other vehicles used in
the transportation Of restricted pro-
ducts much be thoroughly clean before
being returned to the movement Of
restricted products in interstate COM
merce. They also provide that ship
pers be required to make application
for inspection sufficient in advance of
the probable date Of shipments.

600 stars which she can call by their
first names Since 1911, she has been

which picture 250,000 stars. Dr.. Can
non, native Of Dover, holds the first
honorary doctorate in natural science
ever given a woman by Groningen
University in Holland. Since she was
little girl, she has been studying and
classifying the stars, starting with
her own make-shift observatory in the
attic of her home in Dover. She en-
tered Wellesley College in $780, AS
the college at that time had no observ-
atory, she conducted her own exami-
nations Of the star lands from the
porch Of old College hall, and in 1882
was thrilled by the fieeting visit of
the comet of that year. She was grad
uated in 1884, with a bachelor OF
science degree. She taught at Rad
cliffe and continued her classification
work, and results began to show in
the renown she gained In 1911 she
was invited to become curator Of
Photographic plates at the Harvard
observatory. AT that time there were
100000 plates, a history of thirty-fve
years Photographic study of the heav-
ems. DR.. Cannon then began the most
ambitious catalog of the stars that
has ever been undertaken, beginning
with the stars that were bright enough.

DEEP RIVER HAS SOURCE IN DEL
POcOmoke River Starts in Sussex and
at One Point is Dividing Line for
Three Maryland Counties

Sussex county, Del, has the distinc-
ton of being the source Of the deep
est river for its width in the United
States and possibly North America, in
the Pocomoke River, which rises near
Millsboro, Del, and flows southwest
for go miles into the Pocomoke Sound,
On the Chesapeake Bay Of the PENN
sula. Recent soundings made by the
National Geological Survey show that
the Pocomoke River, while less than
200 yards in width at certain places,
has a depth of from 100 to $50 feet.
The deepest spots in the river are to
be found between Snow Hill and Po
comoke City, in Worcester county, the
survey shows. Rising in Sussex coun-
ty, Delaware, the Pocomoke River,
named by the Indians, who long ago
inhabited its shores, strikes the Mary
land line at a point near Selbyville,
and serves as a boundary for three
lower Maryland counties, Wicomico
and Worcester and Worcester and
Somerset. At the extreme southern
end of the river near its mouth, it di-
vides Worcester and Accomae county,

NEW YORK. December 2s.-The
reaction in stock prices, which started
yesterday noon, was extended today. al
though many of the early losses of
to points we're cut down in a late
covering movement. Tax selling and
the usual year end readiustment of
speculative accounts were generally
held responsible for the heavy market.
Public participation was on a small
scale, with little evidence of any ex-
tensive reinvestment demand
Leading brokerage houses presented
rather deserted appearance. Many
customers, who were trading in 100 and
200 share lots a couple of months ago
are now back in the odd-lot class or
out Of the market altogether Profess
sional traders, except a few on the
bear" side, also have sharply cur
tailed their operations.
Total sales on the New York Stock
Exchange today we're l ,634, $40 shares.
r. H. Macy broke BIZ. points, pre-
sumably on unconfirmed reports that
the holiday trade: had failed to come
up to expectations. Sears Roebuck
fell to within 4 points of the Novem-
Der low and then rallied. Allied
Chemical lost Z points, Columbian
Carbon, 534, and Delaware e. Hudson.
Texas & Pacific, J. l. Case and East
man Kodak registered losses of points
or more.
United States Steel common showed
a net loss of "a points at 1912 after
having sold as low. as 1885,. Bethlehem
Steel, Radio. General Motors. Chrysler,
Packard. International Telephone,
Standard Oil of New Jersey. Sinclair
and New York Central all showed frac-
tional declines.
Foreign exchange trading was quiet,
with changes narrow and irregular
Sterling cables were quoted slightly
easier at $4.63is. and French francs,
which have been making new high
records almost daily this week also
eased slightly. On the other hand, the
decline in Spanish pesetas appears to
have been checked, at least temporarily.
