Conclusion next week.
Fourth Of July
Glendale generally succeeds in
whatever the people tries to do.
In the different entertainments
which are given at different times
are generally up to date in every
respect. Now, why can't the people
of Ellendale, have an old fashioned
Fourth of July celebration?
We have the material to make
such an undertaking a success. Now
as to orators we have first d. H.
Reed of E., who is willing at all
times to speak on any occasion.
We also have James H. Jester who
holds down the office of justice oI
the peace with such firmness ana
dignity.
We must not forget John w. West
who is some speaker. We don't
know how he would do in a patrl-
otic speech-but for the cause of ed
ucation, he generally is the whole
show.
So get together our newly organ
lied orchestra which will dispense
music for the occasion.
So lets get together and make
things go with rush and say to the
world at large that Ellendale is pre-
paring to hold a wonderful celebra-
ton on the Fourth of July next.
HucklebeTrieS
The crop of huckleberries bid fair
to be an abundant crop this year
This will be good news to the
poor people of the State who make
high daily wages gathering this
tOothsOme berry.
Buyers assemble daily in the
towns adjacent to the swamps
where this luscrious berry grows
and pay cash for all they can buy
which they ship to the nearby cities.
The revenue which comes to the
neople from the sale of this berry
goes a long way in giving to the
pickers many things of a valuable
nature and a great deal of pleasure
which otherwise they would not
have.
The merchants do wonderful
business when the huckleberrles
are abundant and ripe. All who are
interested seem to share i'll the out
come-the merchant, buyer ana
picker are made happy by the mon
ey consideration received from TINS
great crop of fruit.
Married .
Miss Pauline Harris, daughter OF
AfrH.and. Mrs. George Harris ana
Raymond Beebe, son of Mr.. and MIS-
John w. Beebe, were married on
Thursday afternoon of last week at
Salisbury, Md, by Rev. John W.
Rustin. Mr.. and Mrs. Beebc will re-
side in Glendale.
The writer and his family offer
their most hearty Congratulations
Beetles
The Mexican beetles have maze
their appearance, and at present
seem to attack only the string anu
lima beans. Their numbers are small
so far and if they do not increase
the grower of beans will be able to
handle them without much trouble.
The Japanese Beetles have not
made their appearance in any great
numbers. Mr.. CranstOn has his men
located in the infested districts and
will give them a hard time before
they are allowed to spread in new
territory.
Farm News
The cutting of wheat is going for
ward with a rush. The outlook
seems better than at first supposed
but the price will be low and will
not allow the farmer any margin of
profit.
The early potato crop seems to be
maturing in good condition. If the
price should keep up the crop would
yield the farmer a fair margin of
profit.
The strawberry crop has about
ended. The early berries owing to
the drought yielding no profit what
ever, but rather a loss.
The late crop of Candies were
much better and those who had a
fair crop of this berry made some
money.
Blackberries will soon be here and
generally make the growers some
profit each year, and they promise to
be an abundant crop this season.
The corn crop looks fine and bids
fair to yield we'll
The tomato fields look well. II
the price should be what the far
mer desires, it will help to swell the
bank account.
Grading the School Grounds
The work on the school grounds
is nearing completion, and remark
ably adds to the beauty of Ellen
dale school and entrances. All those

tiful city comment on the improve
ments.
