FARM BODY ACTIVE
DURING MONTH OF LIFE
Far Reaching Policies Have Been
Formulated By Board For Its
Guidance.

Far-reaching policies designed to
place agriculture on new and
firmer foundation, have been initial
ed by the Federal Farm Board,
which came into existence month
ago.
The word Organization" has been
its keynote during this period in the
belief that the farmers will be able
to stabilize their own industry if CO.
ordinated effort is substituted for
haphazard methods of production
and marketing.
Each member of the board is an
advocate of the cooperative mar
keting movement, and all of it's de-
cisions have been intended to
strengthen the cooperative dealing
with the commodities accorded
treatment. The ultimate aim of the
boards marketing program is to
have every leading crop marketed by
existing cooperative through large
national corporations, governed if
necessary, by commodity advisory
councils.
AS part of its work, the board has
undertaken a "redirection of agricul-
tural thought" the description given
the effort to make the country think
in terms of specific crops, each with
its own problems, rather than mass
agriculture.
The outstanding accomplishment
of the board during it's months ex-
istence, has been the formation of
the farmers national grain market
ing corporation. Its Fundamental
purpose is to build up farmer-owned
and farmer-controlled cooperative
institutions for marketing wheat and
coarse grains. 1t will be eligible to
farm relief revolving fund, if neces-
sary, to carry on its activities.
The foundation has been prepared
for similar undertaking in the
wool industry. The wool co-opera-
tives will meet with the board in
Chicago early in October to discuss
plans for the creation of a national
marketing agency and an advisory
council.
Definite progress has been made to
bring about a national coordination
of cotton marketing, and announce
ment of some plans in this direction
are expected shortly. The tobacco
situation will be given attention
soon.
Florida citrus fruit growers have
been informed that the board stands
ready to help them as soon as they
bring about a closer union of the CO..
operatives now marketing that crop.
A loan of 100000 has already been
extended to two of the largest citrus
co-operatives in Florida to help them
meet government regulations impos-
ed because of the prevalence of the
Mediterranean fly.
Petitions have been heard from
California raison growers, but no in
formation regarding progress in this
connection has been made public.
After marketing problems have
been reviewed, the board intends to
inquire carefully into the whole |
problem of irrigation, reclamation
and land utilization but, though |
great Importance is attached to that |
question, it apparently will have to
wait some time.

$71,040 PAID STATE
IN CHARTER BOOST

AS a result of the increase
Of capital from $4,000 to
$500,000,000, the new Blue
Ridge Corporation, whose
charter was granted on Sat-
urday, will have to pay the
State an increased tax of
$71,040.
The new company was Or
ganized under the direction Of
A. V. Lane, L. E. Gray, and H.
E. Grantland, of the Corpora
ton Trust Company of Will
mington.
The corporation is author
ized to participate in mercan-
tile, manufacturing, end trad
ing ventures of any kind. Au-

DELAWARE PAYS in
$2S,l66,9l5.74 TAXES
TO U. S. this YEAR
The States Internal Revenue
Receipts Exceeded By Only
Thirteen States.
IS VERY LARGE INCREASE
A FOrty-One Per Cent Increase
Over Receipts Of Year 1928
Is Shown.

Only thirteen states paid into the
United States Treasury more inter-
nal revenue taxes than Delaware
during the fiscal year of 1929. This
fact is shown in report of the
Treasury Department just made
showing collections for the year.
The total internal revenue collec-
tions for the year in Delaware was
S2S, ,166, ,915.74 which is a Al per cent
increase over 1928 when the collec-
tions amounted to S20,011,261.
The greater portion of these col
lections in Delaware are personal in
come taxes. This gives some idea
of the great wealth in Delaware and
also the prosperity enjoyed in this
State.
The figures show that but one
southern state, Texas, paid more
internal revenue taxes to the gov
ernment the fiscal year just ended
than Delaware. The Lone Star State
collections exceeded $S7 100000.
The other states in which the in
ternal revenue collections exceeded
Delaware were, New York, Pennsyl-
yania, Ohio, Illinois, Missouri, Call
fornia, New Jersey, Connecticut,
Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan
and Wisconsin.
II is surprising that Delaware paid
considerable more internal revenue
taxes to the government during the
year than such states as Indiana,
Iowa, Kansas, Florida, Maine and 81
other states.
The report of the Treasury De-
nartment shows that the total inter-
nal revenue receipts for the year
were S2,999, ,O54,375.49, as compared
with $2,790, 0,535, ,537.6S in 1925 an IN
crease of $14S,518,S37.75.
The gain was due to individual or
personaI income taxes jumping from
S882 1927 7.113.64 in 1928 to $1,O95,541,-
172.4O in 1928, an increase OF S2l2,-
S14.O58.76. Corporation income taxes
and practically all classifications in
cluded under the heading of miscel-
laneous showed decreases, due to
changes in the revenue laws.
The heavy increase in the personal
income taxes took the Treasury ex-
perts completely by surprise and
they were able to account for such
an advance only by the fact that
huge profits were taken out of the
stock market by individuals who had
to pay a substantial portion of such
profits to the government in taxes
on their incomes. These profits were
reflected sharply in the quarterly
income tax payments made in March
and June, when for the first time
in the history of the income tax law,
taxes paid on personal incomes ex-
ceeded the payments made by cor
porations.

THREE ARRESTED FOR
APPLE LAW VIOLATION
Marking Of Fruit Is Now COmpul-
sorry Under New Statute

During the month Of July, State
Highway Police made three arrests
of persons charged with transport
ing unmarked apples. The marking
of apples is compulsory due to law
passed by the last legislature and
these are the first arrests made un-
der the new law.
Fines paid last month amounted to
$8,782.50. Fines imposed and not
paid totaled $3,40O. During the
month there were 713 arrests and 81
272 reprimands.
Arrests were as follows: Reckless
driving, 800; no operators license,
1903; unregistered cars, 62; operating
while under the influence of intoxi-
eating liquor, 33; failing to stop at

This Earl Averill, Of the
Cleveland Indians, who has been
outfieIding in our midst the last
three or four days, is one Of
the outstanding rockies Of 1929
to make the majors the first
time up. Both Howard Shanks
and Roger Peckinpaugh are
crazy about his showing and
predict for him q career in the
majors which may approach
those Of Cobb, Speaker or Ruth.
Averill's chief charm, outside
Of his fielding and hitting, is
the calmness and quietude with
which he goes about his work.
His decorum is unusual for
yearling, as proven by the fact
his debut at the bat was empha-
sized with home run off the
delivery Of Earl Whitehill, of
the Tigers.
The incident didn't seem to
excite him in the least, the
