HEALTHY CHICK CAMPAIGN
Effort to Promote Growth of Good
Stock is Making Rapid Strides

That the grow healthy chicks
campaign, which was launched a
year ago this spring on a state
wide basis under the direction of
H. S. Palmer, Extension Poultry
man of the University of Delaware,
is meeting with success is shown
by the excellent response which IS
being received from large num-
Der of poultry raisers who have en-
rolled in this project this spring
and who are sending in their record
cards to the county agent office in
each of the three counties. One
feature of this campaign consists
in sending to all the poultrymen
circular letters enclosing timely
suggestions and recommendations
in regard to the care and treatment
of young chicks, with special ref
erence to the prevention and con-
troll of those diseases that are pre-
valent in many of the fiocks. Cop
les of instruction Letter No. 4, pre-
pared by the Extension Specialist,
were mailed to the entire poultry
list in Kent county a few days ago
from the Office of County Agent
Russell E. Wilson, at which time
the cooperation of all the poultry
farmers was requested relative to
sending in their reports on the gen
eral condition and the mortality
rate of their young chicks during
the first twenty-eight days. Early
in the season each poultry raiser
received a card on which to check
all or as many of the sanitation
and disease prevention practices
that could possibly be carried into
effect this year in the raising of
better and healthier chicks, and to
date fifty-two of these cards have
been returned in Kent county. Sev-
eral of the other report cards also
have been received at the county
agents office, and in checking over
these records it is estimated that
approximately sixty thousand
chicks are enrolled in this cam
paign at the present time. 1t is
to be expected that many more Of
these cards will be received, how
ever, as the poultrymen in general
are taking an active interest in this
campaign for healthier chicks, and
at the close of the year report
will be published showing the re-
suits of this project

EASTERN SHORE BOULEVARD
First Steps Taken on Highway Be-
tween Queen Anne's Queenstown

First definite action looking to
the early construction of the East
ern Shore Boulevard, extending
from Kent Island to Queen Anne,
was taken last week when the State
Road Commission invited contrac-
tors to present bids for the stretch
of highway extending a distance of
IL miles, between Queen Anne and
Queenstown. 1t is understood that
the commission at an early date
will invite bids for the construction
of the other sections of the boule-
ward. The initial stretch, extend
ing from Queen Anne to Queens
town, will be of concrete, and bids
will be opened in Baltimore on May
81 at II noon. If suitable bids are
provided it is expected that con-
struction activities will be started
on or about June 1.

TOMATO GROWERS ASSURED
HIGHER PROTECTIVE. TARIFF
BOTH SENATOR'S AND CON
GRESHAM HOUSTON ON JOB
So Sure Are They of Atleast a 25
Percent Increase on Foreign Pro-
duce, Farmers Are Encouraged

Delaware growers of tomatoes in
commercial quantities are advised
by Senators Hastings and Town
send that all signs point to a duty
of not less than 25 per cent adj
valorem being enacted into law as
a part of the new tariff bill, and
are encouraged to go ahead with
their planting. It had been the
purpose of the Senators, in con-
junction with Senators from New
Jersey and Maryland, to ask the
President to exercise his authority
under the flexible provisions of the
present tariff act, and increase the
duty from the present is per cent
to % per cent. Such action, it was
felt, would reassure the farmers
and cause them to proceed with
their planting. But It was deter
mined at a conference of the SEN
ators at O'Clock Thursday after
noon that the President would not
be approached, and earlier plans to
see the President Friday were
abandoned. After the conference
Senator Hastings made the follow
ing statement. AT a conference
among the Republican Senators
from New Jersey, Delaware and
Maryland, it was concluded that
the farmer might very well rely
upon the rates of duty on tomatoes
fixed by the House, which is % per
cent, in view of the fact that all
the relief the President could give
would be 80 per cent of the pres
ent rate, which is Is per cent, max
ing an increase up to D per cent.
1t was thought best not to make
the application at all. We are sat
isfed from our investigation that
the Senate finance committee will
not reduce it, and we hope to get
them to increase it to so per cent.

CHEsTERTowN FOR ROADS
Voters of Kent County, Nd, Vote
Bond Issue of $1,000 900 for Roads

A total Of $500 votes were cast
in the special election held over at
Chestertown, Nd, and other towns
in Kent County, Md, last Saturday
at which voters approved two bond
issues, involving the expenditure of
S1,00O,OO0 for the building of con-
crete and flag roads in the county
this year. A proposal for the
100000 issue for the building of
concrete roads was carried by a
majority of $50 votes, while the
100000 flag road issue carried by
a majority of 760 votes. This IS
the most pretentious road program
ever undertaken by any county in
the State, and will give Kent Coun-
ty about 100 miles of improved
roads this year. Many over near
the Maryland-Delaware line hope it
will mean the construction of the
Blackiston's Millington concrete
road to join up with the Smyrna
Clayton road. The bonds will be
sold BY the Board of County Com
missioners and the proceeds will be
placed at the disposal of the State
Road Commission, which will super
wise the building Of the new roads.
As soon as the bonds are sold, con-
struction will be started.
