TO HOLD ANCHORAGE HEARING

The Board of Engineers for Rivers
and Harbors will conduct a hearing
September Is on the proposal for the
construction of an anchorage basin al
Chesapeake City, to accommodate
small craft using the Chesapeake and
Delaware Canal.
The board suggests the best place
for such anchorage would be at Back
creek, but that this site must be con-
sidered in connection with the recon-
struction of the highway bridge across
Back creek.
If reconstructed at a point about
600 feet above the bridge, a draw
would not be necessary and local in
terests would be required to bear the
expense of maintenance only, the
board says.

DELAWARE PEACH CROP A
LARGE ONE

A total of four hundred and seventy
seven cars of peaches were shipped
from Delaware this year according to
the figures compiled by w. T. Derrick
son, Director of the Bureau of Markets.
Mr.. Derickson is of the opinion that
the total truck shipments of peaches
will almost equal the shipments made
by. rail. In that case the total ship
ments for the season will equal more
than nine hundred cars.
The.to shipments this year present
quite a contrast with the total ship
ment of last year when only twenty
two cars were shipped over the rail-
road and a considerably smaller guam
tity by truck.

Locasto came up for the third round
looking sobered. subdued. grimly deter

Suddenly LOcasto : closed in. He

his arms al the elbow, so that he was
helpless. For moment he held him.
then. suddenly releasing his arms. he
caught him round the body, shook him
with mighty side heave, gave him
the cross-buttock. and, before he could

Menace of Cooling Moth

The Department of Agriculture is
out TO see that the codling moth is not
coddled any more. 1t is time that il be
taken seriously. Estimates now are
that at least 20 per cent of the crop
of apples and pears of the Pacific
Northwest are lost each year through
the destruction wrought by the
worms of the moth. In individual
cases the loss runs as high as 20 per
cent
The moth is nothing if not prolific.
Two generations are produced each
year during the growing season. This
means that it is vital that the trees
in the orchards be sprayed as many
as six times a season.
