WILL ISSUE OUTLOOK
FOR DELAWARE CROPS
Valuable Information To Be Pre-
pared For State Farmers In
Near Future.

OF great interest. to the agricul-
tural industry of the state is an an
nouncement just made by A. d.
Cobb, state leader of county agents,
that the Agricultural Extension De-
partment of the University of Della
ware plans to issue the annual
state agricultural outlook report for
1929 within the next two weeks.
This outlook report will contain
all the latest available data on the
general agricultural situation in the
state, and will outline the trend of
production and prices of all import
ant farm products during recent
years. The information contained in
the report is designed to give Della
ware farmers before spring planting
time, all available information as to
what the probable conditions will
be when their products are ready
for market.
Proper Interpretation of the re-
port will be of assistance to pro-
ducers in so planning their produc-
tive programs and balancing their
different lines of production, that
they will be in position to realize
the greatest returns and avoid over
production or underproduction of
any commodity.
Producers and others are warned,
however, that in no sense is this
outlook report to be taken as an at
tempt to forecast prices at market
time.
Mr.. Cobb took part in the National
Outlook Conference held in Wash
ington, d. c., several weeks ago and
since that time has been compiling
data for the Delaware report. On
Wednesday, February 18th, Mr.. Cobb
held the first Delaware Outlook
Conference in the Hotel Richardson
at Dover, which was attended by
members of the Extension Depart
ment of the University of Delaware,
representatives of the State Board
of Agriculture, and several prom
inent farmers of the state.
At this conference all preliminary
material was gone over by the con-
ference members and referred to
members of the Extension Staff for
final approval. AS soon as all data
is completed, Mr.. Cobb will edit and
publish the complete outlook report
which will be available to all farm
ers of the state.
Those attending the conference at
Dover were John d. Reynolds, Mid
dletown; Paul Mitchell, Hockessin;
f. H. Donovan, Brenford; H. C.
Richardson, Camden; Ed. Willim,

FARMERS DISCUSS
HEALTHY CHICKS
Kent County POuItrymen Hear
Speakers At Hartly And Caesar
Rodney Meetings.

The results of the "Grow-Healthy-
Chicks" campaign, which was start
ed for the first time in the state
last spring under the direction of
H. S. Palmer, extension poultryman
of the University of Delaware, were
presented by County Agent Russell
E. Wilson to over sixty poultry
raisers who were present at the
community meetings which were
held at the Hartly and Caesar Rod
ney school buildings ON Thursday
and Friday evenings of last week.
In view of the fact that poultry
men throughout the country as a
whole are experiencing considerable
difficulty in their efforts to control
diseases and internal parasites
among their fiocks, the poultry
specialists in several of the states
in the union have launched Grow
Healthy Chicks" campaigns in
which the cooperation of all the
poultry raisers is being requested
in an effort to solve these important
problems.
When this project was started in
Delaware in the spring of 1928 the
poultrymen were asked to follow
seven main points or cleanup prac-
tees which were incorporated in
this program for better and health
Ter chicks. These seven points in
cluded practices as starting with
clean chicks, having clean brooder
houses, clean land, clean litter, clean
feed, clean management, and clean
laying houses.
In order to learn how many of
these seven points actually were fol-
lowed last. year a QUESTIONABLE was
mailed to each poultry raiser in
the state, and records were obtained
from 149 different farms represent
ing 143,513 chicks. These reports
that where all seven clean
up practices were observed the
chick mortality rate for the first
month was only 3.5 per cent, as
compared to 81 per cent where only
six points were followed, III per
cent in those cases where but five
points were included, and the high
rate of 1872 per cent Oc-
curing on those farms where only
four of these practices comprised
the management of the flock during
the season.

STATE HEALTH BOARD
IN DIPHTHERIA DRIVE
Prevention Campaign VIII Open In
Lower Delaware April Sth

Planning the conduct of a more
intensive Diphtheria Prevention
Campaign, the State Board of
Health has set March IL as the
date for the opening of the drive in
Wilmington, and April as the date
for the opening in the counties.
The State Board has for several
years been battling against diph-
iberia, providing for the free distri-
button of anti-tOxin as a means of
treatment, and has also furthered
diphtheria prevention and encour-
aging the protection of children by
the use of toxin-antitoxin mixture.
Inasmuch as the rate has progress
sively declined in Delaware-now
being between 80 and 40 per million
of population, the best rate ever
experienced and little more than
half that of any former year-the
Board is convinced of the good re-
suits of these efforts.
However, last year, in spite of all
that has been done, there were Al
cases of the disease, in the State,
of which number nine died.
The prime effort is to bring about
the immunization of children against
the disease, especially those of pre-
school age. Most diphtheria deaths
occur in children whose ages CEN
ter near three years.
1t is thought that there are $4,000
children in the State now unpro-
tected, while younger children are
filling in. 1t is pointed out that the
family physician will attend to the
matter, but otherwise, the Board of
Health is ready to aid. The consent
of the parent of the child is neces-
sary.
Some of the publicity of the cam
paign will include open meetings
with moving pictures. The aid of
groups and organizations is re-
quested.

SUSSEX RESIDENTS
APPEAL REPORT
Urge Abandonment OF The Broad
kill River Mouth; Open Another

Appeal from the adverse report
of District Engineer r. P. Howell
on improvement of Broadkill river
was formally voiced on Monday at
Washington by a delegation of citi-
zens from Lewes, Milton and Reho-
both at a hearing granted by the
Board of Army Engineers. General
Herbert L. Deakyne, assistant chief
of army engineers, and a native OF
Delaware, presided.
No action was taken by the Board.
Appellants went well prepared with
arguments, charts and drawings.
Their case was strongly presented.
Congressman Robert G. Houston
made an Introductory talk and in
troduced the members of the dele
cation who spoke.
The Congressman reminded the
Board that Delaware has contribute
ed to the support of the Federal
Government in taxes in the past
twelve years, beginning with 1917,
a total of $196,S1O,S77. eve feel
that we are not asking too much
when we come with projects like
this which require some Federal
outlay" he said.
The delegation urged the aband-
onment of the present mouth of
Broadkill river and the opening of
another mouth. The existing en-
trance has a strong tendency to
fill and close up.
If the improvement is made, it
will improve navigation in the
Lewes river as we'll as the Broad
kill, and permit resumption of bust
ness ON a scale that will justify the
the Board was told.
In the delegation were Mayor w.
H. Welsh of Milton, ]. c. Lank and
H. S. Fithian of Milton. Daniel G.
Anderson of Rehoboth. ]. H. Hack

DOVER TO HAVE NEW
40-ROOM HOTEL

Plans for the erection of a
modern hotel in Dover have
been completed, and construc-
ton on the project will prob
ably be begun this spring. The
structure is to contain approx
imately 40 rooms and is to be
erected at the corner of State
and Mary streets.
While Brown and Whiteside,
architects, have sent out the
plans of the hotel to local
contractors, practically no de-
tails of the construction of
the building could be learned.
1t is understood, however, that
it is planned to build a hotel
comparable to other modern
enterprises in towns of the
same size.
James A. Alice, Jr., and as
ISOLATED interests, are spon-
soring the project.
