HAS SEAL OF DEL-MAR-VA"
First Carload Shipment From Del
Mar-Va Eastern Shore Association

Many carload shipments Of a Del
Mar-Va commodity packed and graded
under the requirements and standards
of the Del-Mar-Va Eastern Shore AS
sociation and carrying the Del-Mar-Va
insignia move up the Peninsula for the
New York market almost every day
from down as far as Parksley, Va. Ac-
cording to the large group of specta-
tors who observed the loading and
shipping Of this commodity, it is Of
the highest type being offered on the
market today. Broccoli is bringing
from $3.50 to $500 per crate and
S1.00 a hamper in city markets. Many
loads from down the state go by
Smyrna on the Boulevard every day
Under direction of Supervising In
spector, J. a. Burroughs, of the As
sociation, it had been graded and
packed in bundles similar to aspara-
gus which were uniform in size and
weight. These were Grated in the
standardized carriers which are sti-
pulated by the Association inspection.
This car went to the market with the
crates iced, the car itself top iced and
with ice filed bunkers. These re-
quirements were met by the shippers
in the section using the Del-Mar-Va
insignia who are expressing decided
enthusiasm because of the splendid
results which they have obtained since
the shipping began. The Association
is ready to proceed with its plan in
marketing asparagus and to follow
immeditely with the leading CONNER
cial crops as their shipping season
starts. The effect of the literature
being distributed in the sections where
Del-Mar-Va broccoli is mainly ship
ped is reported by the commission
men and distributors as creating ma
terial and substantial interest, doing
much towards stimulating activity in
this product. Through the Marketing

EGGS AND THEIR FOOD VALUE
To Celebrate Annual Egg Week Spon-
sored by National Poultry Council

Another year is about to complete
its cycle and the nation will be cele-
brating annual egg-week, May l to z,
with the striking slogans Eggs for
Health" and Sunshine in Sealed
Packages" This is week sponsored
by The National Poultry Council and
supported by the Delaware State
Poultry Association, and becoming
famous throughout our land. The
consumption of eggs in the United
States is much below that in some of
the other countries. Also, from a
Nutrition-Healths standpoint, the con-
sumption is far below what it ought
to be, according to Miss Pearl Mac
Donald, nutrition specialist of the Ex-
tension Department of the University
of Delaware. The reason for having
such week is based, fundamentally,
says Miss Macdonald, upon the value
Of eggs in the diet. What determines
this value? There are four main
factors entering into the problem:
1. The quality of the proteins in
both the white and IN the yolk is ex-
cellent. The proteins in eggs rank
next to those of milk in their effic-
iency for building and maintaining the
body tissues.
2 Egg yolk is an excellent source
of vitamins A, B, and D which are es-
sential in promoting normal growth
in children and in helping to maintain
the general well-being of every indi-
vidual.
3. Eggs, both because of the kind
and quality Of mineral matter present,
the valuable source of supply for
minerals which are needed in building
tissues and in helping to regulate the
working of the body machine. The
egg, is not as rich in lime as milk,
the lime being mostly in the shell.
The egg has phosphorus in proportion
similar to that in milk. When eggs
are used with milk, there is an excel
cellent supply of these two minerals
which are used not only for building
bones and teeth but also in other i'm
portant ways in the body. Egg yolk
is much richer than is milk in iron
which is needed for the blood.
A. The fat of egg yolk ranks with
the cream of milk as a source of en-
ergy. It is easily digested and well
used. For the above values, conclud-
e. Miss Macdonald, i: is readily seen
that eggs rank with milk as an in
food for the human
family.

To SET OUT TOMATO PLANTS
DURING MAY INSTEAD Of JUNE
MOVEMENT TO INCREASE YIELD
AND RAISE QUALITY AS WELL
Tomato Demonstrations in Kent to be
Held In May and June Under Direc-
tion of County Agent r. E. Wilson

in the program for the more eco
nomic production of tomatoes in Kent
county an effort is being made again
this year by County Agent Russell E.
Wilson in cooperation with the local
Gamers and interested growers to in
crease the yield per acre and raise the
quality Of the product in order that
the farmers may realize more salts
factory returns from their crop. With
in the past week approximately one
thousand tomato growers in the coun-
ty received from the county agents
office circular letter calling their at
tention to the Importance of using
good seed, plenty Of high analysis
fertilizer, and early setting of plants
if the increased yield per acre and the
highest quality of products are to be
secured. Tomato growers should make
every possible effort to secure the best
seed available Of the varieties or
strains which they plan to use, as no
one factor in the growing of any crop
is as essential to success and profit
able returns as the kind and quality
of the seed. Fertilization is also of
important consideration, as tests and
demonstrations that have been CON
Quoted in different states in this sec
ton Of the county have proven that
the best and most practical results
are obtained by the application of
from 1000 to 1900 pounds of a 4-8-10
commercial fertilizer in addition to 10
or IL tons of manure to the acre.
These recommendations however, are
more or less Of a general nature, as
each farm presents an Individual
problem, and the amount Of fertilizer
and the method Of its application are
determined largely by the fertility of
the land and the varieties Of tomatoes
that are to be grown. Demonstrations
are being planned on a number of
farms in Kent county this spring and
summer to show the Importance Of
setting the plants in the field between
the dates Of May Is and 20, as COM
pared to the period from June | to 10,
which is the time that the majority Of
the tomato growers set out their
plants in this section. The yield rec
ords from Greater Baltimore, Mar
globe, and Bonny Best varieties Of to-
matoes from 123 farms in New Jersey,
as obtained by the agricultural exper-
iment station Of that state, showed
that plants set in the field between
May 15 and 80, produced on the av-
erage 1873 tons per acre, as compared
to a yield Of only 6 tons per acre
from plants set between June | and
10. In addition to the demonstrations
with reference to the different dates
for setting plants in the field, the to
mato projects for this coming year in
Kent county also include compari-
son of the Marglobe and Greater Bal
timore varieties for canning purposes.
The names of the farmers on whose
farms these demonstrations will be
conducted this year will be announced
at a later date when the work has
been definitely established.

Brighton Workers in
Speakers Defense

Workers at The Brighton Laun-
dry, 537 Sheepshead Bay Road,
came to the defense of union speak
ers who were attacked by thugs led
by laundry bosses at an outdoor
meeting Thursday evening. Repeat
ing their tactics of two weeks ago,
when speakers from the Cleaning
and Laundry Workers section of the
T.U.U.L., thugs led by Herman
Bessler, one of the bosses, attacked
the second speaker, Breslauer, after
he had finished speaking. The work
ers present, however, came to Bres-
lauer's defense.
The bosses were forced to retreat
bv the militant workers. Threats
were made that anyone who comes to
speak to the workers again will be
killed, but these threats did not
freighten the workers, and the meet
ines will be continued.
Breslauer, who was the special
target of the bosses, worked IN the
Brighton Laundry for nine years.
and was blacklisted in Brooklyn for
his union activities. Other speakers
were Feldman and Gozigin.

UNEMPLOYED IN

DETROIT, Mich, Nov. 24.-So
serious has the unemployment sit
uation become in this auto center
where thousands of workers are be-
ing laid off weekly, and so scared
have the open shop manufacturers
become as the militancy of the work
ers, rises daily, that an attempt was
made to ailay discomfort among the
unemployed workers here, by having
the city council appropriate $780,
COO in order to supply fraction of
the unemployed workers with slave
Jobs on public works, and thus at
tempt to hide the seriousness of the
unemployment situation.
1t is significant that Ford, whose
talk of raising wages indicates a
plan to further increase ratienaliza-
ton, has added over $4,000 to the
ranks of the unemployed workers in
this section in the past two months.
The bosses here are using the
press and the radio, to pour out
prosperity" propaganda in order to
stifle the rising militancy of the
workers. The auto workers are now
soothing at the familiar lies of the
press here, which is advising them
not to take the slump too seriously,
and that with the new year will
come plenty of jobs and big wages.
The fear which has been put into
the open shop manufacturers here
is shown by statements broadcast
over radio station WMBC, advising
the unemployed workers mot to lose
their heads" and telling them that
the law does not recognize your fin
aneial condition as an excuse for
crime"
The Packard Auto Co. has pre-
coded its planned lay-off with a
wage cut of 30 per cent. Lay-offs
continue daily at the Ford plants.

TEXTILE BALL IS
ONLY Z DAYS OFF
WorkUp Thanksgiving
Appetite at Fete

1t may read like a low pun, but
it is true nevertheless that every
class conscious New York worker
should buy at least one ticket for
the Textile Workers Ball, even if
he has to put his watch and chain
in soak to scare up the rs cents
necessary, for in so doing he will
be actively aiding to strike the ball
and chain from the fiercely exploit
ed textile slave.
The ball, with a carnival thrown
in for good measure, has been ar
ranged by the National Textile
Workers Branch and Local New
York, Workers International Relief,
and will be held in New Star Cas-
inc, 107th St. and Park Ave-, this
Wednesday night, Thanksgiving
Eve. Disregarding other considera-
tons for the moment, what better
way is there of working up an ap-
petite for the Thanksgiving Day
spread, if any, than by dancing TO
the 100-proof music of John C.
Smiths Negro Orchestra? Or, for
that matter, what better way of for
getting the empty larder at home?
As the affair is to be q sort of
informal rally preceding the ma
tional convention of the N, T. w. U.
in Paterson, N. j., the next day, the
ESQ convention delegates, coming
from the mill towns of New Eng
land, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and
