REEDY POINT SPAN AT CANAL
Delaware City Port Penn High
way Span is Being Improved

The U. S. Government is making
some improvements on the Reedy
Point Bridge on the Delaware City
Port Penn highway and to the
roadway on the south bank of the
Chesapeake and Delaware Canal
Work has started by government
employees on the placing of road
ways on the Reedy Point Span.
The roadways are of checkered
steel and are two feet wide. Four
roadways will be placed the length
of the bridge. Workmen of the
Norwood, Noonan Co. of Chicago.
ILL.,, are busy erecting the safety
gates on the north and south sides
of the bridge. The gates will be in
place and ready for use by the end
of tbs week and will be operated
entirely by electricity. Govern
ment employees are engaged in
grading the highway on the south
bank of the waterway, the dirt be-
ing taken from the road that was
used several years ago by auto
mobiles and teams when the ferry
was used to transport vehicles over
the canal. 1t is reported that the
u. S. Government will construct a
road from the west side of the
Reedy Point Bridge to the jetty at
the northwest corner of the canal.

BEETLE MEN ACTIVE IN KENT
Checking Up on Fruit and Other
Green Products Shipped From
This Area-EeW Beetles Found

The Japanese beetle inspectors
recently appointed by the State
Board of Agriculture, to which de
partment such appointments were
transferred by an Act of the recent
Delaware Legislature instead of
appointment by the Governor, are
operating in Kent county under the
supervision of Head Inspector
Cranston of New Castle County.
Those on duty in Kent County at
present are mainly engaged in
checking up on fruit and other
green produce being shipped from
the Beetle areas so that no fruit or
vegetables shall knowingly be ship
ped out of the State unless in
spected and given q. certificate of
a clean bill of health. While but
few beetles have been found in
Kent County, the fact that several
have been found, seems to warrant
a close check up on all fruits and
vegetables grown for shipment out
of the State. So far as is known
no real scout work has as yet be-
gun but will possibly be done lit
tie later in the Summer. With the
beetle pest there seems also to be
an indication of the Mexican beetle
worm which did some damage last
year to lima beans and string
beans. Already in some of the
smaller gardens, where lima beans
are being raised the Mexican beetle
has made its appearance with de-
structive results. This too will
have to be combated, possibly by
the beetle inspectors.

MEETING OF ROTARY CLUB
Addressed Thursday Evening by
DIR. 0sWOId E. Denney, Former
SmYrnian, Now of CarsviIie, La.


At the meeting of Smyrna Ro-
tary Club held last Thursday ev-
ening at the Wayside Inn, DR.. Os-
void E. Denney, former resident
of Smyrna, was the speaker of the
evening. DR.. Denney described the
work of the Government hospital
for Lepers, at Carville, La, and IL
lustrated his talk with colored
lantern slides, showing views of
the hospital and grounds. Many
vivid cases of leprosy were also
shown on the screen, some of
which were discharged later from
the hospital as cured. There are
at present BOA patients in the hos
pital representing nearly every ma
tionality on earth. DR.. Denney
heads this government owned in
stitution, and has devoted a life
time to the study of this disease,
having spent many years in the
PHILIPPINES in this work before as
suming charge of the hospital in
Louisiana. DR.. Denney and his
corps of research workers are con-
stantly advancing in their treat
ment of leprosy, and thru their
scientific work and patient care,
they now understand this dread
disease, and know better how to
treat it. Many patients having
been discharged as cured during
the past nine years. DIR. Denney's S
talk and pictures were most inter
esting and instructive, and it is
seldom we are privileged to hear
such an unusual subject described
by a man who is leader in his
particular speciality of medical
treatment Visitors and guests at
the meeting were DR.. I. H. Boyd OF
the Dover Club; DR.. w. G. Dea-
kyne, DR.. c. J. Prickett, and Theo-
dore E. Hynson, of Smyrna; Thorn

Boosts Market to S1.15 and S2.75

WIFI
Boosts Market to S1.75 and S2.75
Short crops of early apples from
other apple bearing states conbin-
ed with the exceptionally fine quail
ity of the Delaware crop this sum
mer has resulted in the market
price for early apples being a most
encouraging one this year. Orch
ardists, who have a fairly good
crop of early varieties this year
stand a chance to make more ac-
tual profit than for several years
Chief Inspector Zimmerman, of
the United States Department of
Agriculture, who for many years
i has been supervising the inspection
work in Delaware, stated that
while the crop was not bumper
one. that this had worked to the
advantage of the grower. The ap-
pies are sizing up better, he said,
and the largely without the defects
or diseases, that normally infect
early apples. According to W. T.
Derickson, director of the Bureau
of Markets, the price this week has
ranged from S1.75 to S275 for the
best stuff, and a greater amount
of U. S. No. apples are being OBJ
tanned this year than for several
years. Delaware apples, Mr.. Der
ickson said are going to a dozen
states in the east and middle west.
Those going the greatest distance
are shipped by train, while those
destined for markets within two or
three hundred miles are going by
both train and truck Early ap-
pies are not of the character to be
canned like late fruit, and must be
used almost at once. None are
exported, because the fruit would
not stand the journey like the fall
apple varieties. One development
of the crop is that this year prac-
tically all of the crop is being gov
eminent inspected. Considering
the opposition to inspection demon
strated four or five years ago, this
is little short of remarkable. But
the growers have learned that they
can market apples much easier
and usually at an increase in price
when fruit carries the guarantee
of the government.

With the awarding on Wednes-

road from Dover to Hazletville,
the State Highway Department
has placed orders for slightly less
than fifty miles of new roads this
year. The Dover to Hazletville
road will be a Stag road of the
traffic bound type and will be six
teen feet in width. This is a new
type of road for this county and if
it proves successful it is quite pos
sible that other roads will be con-

In the Stock Market
fRu Thomson & McKinnon)

NEW YORK. Nov. live find
much Of an encouraging nature in
the weekend developments notable
among which are sizeable increase
in the steel corporations October
untitled tonnage, a satisfactory
third quarter foreign trade report,
a more cheerful note sounded by
many of the trade reviews in their
summaries of business conditions
throughout the country and a
definitely better sentiment prevail
ing In well informed quarters to-
wards the market itself. There is
no tendency in trade reports to deny
that the influence of the markets
recent debacle will be harmful to
artain lines of business activity
But on the other hand, there seems
to be a rather widespread con-
viction that the effects thereof will
prove less severe in most instances
than some observers were inclined
at first to believe would be the case.
We subscribe to this latter view
point, reiterating previous state
ments that the fundamental
strength of our railroads, factories,
farm and the other constituent
parts of the countries economic
structure has not been destroyed by
the drop in security values, though
it may be contracted in some in
stances. We are not urging the
purchase of stocks merely because
they are available at the sub
stantial recessions from their recent
high prices, but basing the
suggestion on the firm belief that
many of the Soundest issues,
possessing definite investment merit,
are selling below actual worth. The
decreasing activity Ct Friday
suggests more stable market, with
more normal fluctuations, recessions
are bound to occur in the rehabilita-
ton program, but we do not believe
they will be of any real Importance
or duration, and they should afford
excellent opportunities for adding to
ones investment holdings.
