H0OVER'S STATEMENT
WINS DRYS' SUPPORT

'~rhe message Of President Hoover to
Congress Is probably the greatest rec
ommendation, as well as pronounce
ment, on national prohibition and its
enforcement and observance ever made
by a President of the United States in
a message to Congress" Ernest H. Cher
rington, director Of the department of
education, Anti-Saloon League Of Amer
ica, said In statement made public
today.
1.-THE strong declarations of President
Hoover express the desire of the heart
Of the American people. The emphasis
he has placed upon obedience to the law
as well as It's enforcement will go far
toward reasSuring friends of prohibition.
It practically notifies those who have
brought wet pressure to bear that there
will be no let-up in the enforcement
program Of this administration. It
serves notice upon the violators of the
prohibition law, both large and small
that the President means business when
he calls attention TO his oath of office.
1.-THE morale Of those charged with
enforcement of the law and equally of
public-spirited citizens and organiza-
tions supporting the prohibition cause
will be greatly strengthened by this
statement Of the President"

tion is approaching the conclusion
of its fourth year and based on
the information submitted through

State Grange Which Held Its Ses-
sion in LeWes Last Week EndOrs-
es Recommendations TO Governor

A number of resolutions, endors-
ing recommendations made in the
various officers reports, were
adopted at the closing session of
the Delaware State Grange at
Lewes last week. One of these
I resolutions favors changes in the
bylaws, to facilitate the transac-
ton of business, especially the
election of officers. Another reso-
luton adopted favored the plan
suggested by Governor c. Douglas
Buck some time ago, to build a
grain elevator at the port of Will
mington so that grain shipments
could be made to any important
point and the grain stored pending
shipment. The committee on eX-
tension work presented report in
the form of a resolution which
urges all oranges to make every
effort possible to increase their
membership and also to increase
the number of oranges in the State
The body endorsed all of the rec
concentrations made in the report
of former Governor r. P. Robinson
who is master of the State Grange,
the reports on juvenile oranges, the
plans followed by lecturers and
oranges in making meetings inter
esting, instructive and attractive.
The grange, as usual, favored the
enforcement of laws and made no
change in its stand in favor OF the
enforcement of the prohibition law

siding in upper Delaware left early

GRAIN ELEVATOR SUGGESTED
Project Discussed at Government
Conference Last Week

Inquiry may be made as to the
practicability and feasibility of
constructing at the Marine Term
inal a concrete grain elevator to
accommodate the grain produced
in Delaware and the Eastern Shore
of Maryland. At the conference
in Dover held at the invitation Of
Governor Buck on Wednesday of
last week, Henry Ridgely, of Do
yer, told of some of the conditions
which tend to reduce the profits of
Peninsula farmers, and at the con-
clusion of ms remarks Governor
Buck suggested that Mr.. Ridgely,
ex-senator Newton and Frank c.
Bancroft, who were present, might
serve as a committee to see what
could be done to remedy the evils
to which attention had been called.
Later it was suggested that the

the possibility of establishing at or
near the Marine Terminal of
grain elevator to take care of the
grain raised in the Peninsula. The
estimated corn and wheat crops to
be marketed each year are: Della
ware corn, 2,613,OO0 bushels;
Maryland, corn, 4,266,00O bushels;
Delaware, wheat, 1,1O1 900 bushels
Maryland, wheat, 3,49s,00O bushels
This makes a total of 11,473,000
bushels for the two States. How
large an elevator would be requir-
er to care for the needs of the Pen
insula area has not been suggested
and it is not known yet whether
definite steps are to be taken to
make survey of the subject.

next meeting at the new Windsor
Hotel, at Milford, on January 8.
The executive committee Will meet
at the Wicomico Hotel in Salisbury
on Friday of next week. There
are 125 hatcheries on the PENN
sula. Mr.. Gassaway pointed out
that the value of poultry and eggs
On the peninsula is S1O,O0O,O0O an
nually. Ee also urged the hatch
cry men to organize against boot
leg egg buyers, men who go about
and offer more money for eggs af-
ter bargain has been made with
the farmer by the hatchery man.
In part he said: ''We find out that
in the year 1924 the poultry and
egg business of the Peninsula had
a value Of over S9,OOO,OOO reported
as follows: Eastern Shore of Mary
land, 81, Eli ,639; Eastern Shore of
Virginia, SS66, 1886; Delaware, So
943,115, making a total of $9,O21,-
592. 1t is doubtless % per cent
more today. The Matching indus
try alone from the figures we are
enable to gather buys from the
farmers about 25,OOO,OOO eggs
year at an average price of SO
cents per dozen or a total of $780,
600. A bonus of one-half cent an
egg is paid, adding $125, 900 to this
amount or total of $4,000. The
average hatch on the Peninsula is
100000 chicks, bringing an av-
erage of II cents apiece. An in
dustry representing 81, 100000 We
find that about 100000 of these
chicks go to the broiler growers at
an average price of II cents and
rs per cent of these are raised.
There is exported from the PENN
sula about 100000 chick annual
ly at an average price of ii cents.
Of the 100000 chicks that are
raised by the Peninsula broiler
growers he receives an average of
40 cents with a total income of
$6, 100000. This with the $780,
received for the baby chicks ex-
ported brings the returns from the
industry up to $6,720,000. In ad-
dition to this we have, of course,
the eggs shipped to markets, the
sale of other poultry, and the
turkey and duck business. It oc-
ours to me that an industry as i'm
portant as yours should organize
for the development of your mu-
tual and individual interests.

RABBIT FEVER ON SHORE
Lloyd w. Starkey First Victim of
TuIaremia in This Part of Country

Tularemia in This Part of Country
Maryland's first reported case Of
tularemia or rabbit fever, was
confirmed by the State Board of
Health following a report and a
submission of blood tests last week
by DR.. Norman S. Dudley, of
Church Hill, County Health Officer,
of Lloyd w. Starkey, who resides
on the Parson Green Farm, near
Church Hill Md. He has been i'll
for three weeks, but is believed to
have passed the danger point
Physicians are confident that he
viii recover. After an eXamina-
tion of the case, DR.. Dudley sub
mitted samples of the young mans
blood to the Health Department
The first two tests failed to dis
close traces of tularemia, but the
final samples were diagnosed as
unmistakable evidence of rabbit
fever. Three weeks ago Mr.. Stark
ey killed some rabbits, skinned
them and from one of the furs, is
believed to have come in contact
with the tularemia germ. Later he
became violently i'll and suffered
a long siege of extremely high few
er. Both health and game offic-
las are puzzled by the unexpected
appearance OF the malady. Game
authorities several months ago as
sured hunters that tularemia was
a disease which appeared periodi-
cally but that no danger need be
feared this season. There were
several cases reported last season.
