Striped ChipmunE hal 2 son whose coat was all black His name was Impy. From the tip of his tail
 to the tip of his nose Impy was black. He couldn't have been black
 or. Now. this me.nr that Imp had to be smart. Had he beea other V lse, he would not have lived long.
 You see the rules of life for q chfpmunk with q striped coat would not always be the r.sLt rules for one with q black aat. There were times and places wh -e. f his fath- ,er, Striped Chipmunh, sat perfectly still there would be little danger .o5 his being seen. That was because his striped coat would look so like the surroundings that only the very ,,keenest eyes would ever notice it. But under the same conditions 'Impy would be noticed right away That black coat wouldn't be at all like he surroundings It would stand light out. On the other hand, there were times and places where Striped Chipmunk would be seen and Jmpy would not. So Impy had 'to learn these differences. Yes. sir, .Impy had 10 learn these differ .ences He had 10 learn 3, whole set ,of rules just for himself No one could teach them 10 him except experience. So if Inpy hadn't been smart, he wouldn't have lived very 'lcng.
 Impy soon found that he had to watch out most sharply when he ,was out in the full sun. No matter what his surroundings were in the full sun he could easily be seen. However, where there was a deep, dark shadow he was comparatively safe. That was because the shadow was black and he vas black. So sImpy took to looking for shadows. Then, too, he liked the late after noon. when black shadows began Ito creep across the old stone wall, ,His father Striped Chipnlunk, and his mother and brothers and sisters didn't like that time of day so well, and they all went to bed earlier than Impy. Sometimes he would stay out quite late. for he felt safer and was safer than at any other time of day; all because he could not easily be seen.
 One day Impy and Striped Chip .munk were running along the old stone wall with Striped Chipmunk
 in the lead. He was quite a little distance ahead. Suddenly he dived down between the stones Of the old wall and disappeared. Impy knew Instantly that Striped Chipmunk had seen an enemy of some sort; .but just Wto that enemy was he didn't know. for he couldn't see the enemy himself. Now Impy might have also lodged down between

TERM FOR NEGRO
Sentence of Kent County
Court for Robbery One
of Stiffest in Years

One of the most severe sentences
meted out in the Kent County Court
of General Sessions in recent years,
was imposed at Dover last week by
Resident Judge w. Harrington in
Plead Guilty Court, when Daniel
Blake, colored, 20, who pleaded
guilty to simple ROBBERY on an in
dictment presented by Deputy-At-
torney-General Earl D. Wiley for
highway robbery, was sentenced to
10 years Imprisonment in the New
Caste County Workhouse and to re-
ceive 40 lashes. He was whipped at
the workhouse Saturday morning.
Blake's victim was an aged Negro
Frank Stevens, who owns a small
home in West Dover, where the
offense occurred several weeks ago.
Stevens related to Judge Harring-
ton the incidents leading up to the
offenses, and told of Blake going to
Stevens room at an early hour in
the morning with double barreled
shot gun and demanding money
Blake also carried a rope and hand
kerchief. Stevens by a ruse, had
Bake get in his automobile. He then
drove to Dover where he had Blake
arrested.

U. S. Experts Have Increased

Turkey raising in the United

issue and a gamble, but increasing
knowledge of parasitic diseases and
their control is putting the industry
on a more stable basis, says A. R.

culture. There are now more than
three and a half million turkeys on
farms in this country, and they con-

business as compared with 1928,
The estimated increase was about .

Picture of Col. Townsend

On Wednesday afternoon the Class

Education a picture of Colonel The
odore Townsend to be hung on the
wall of the main entrance hall Of
the new Junior-Senior High School.
The presentation was made in the
auditorium of the new building be-
fore the whole student body and a
few friends. Curtis Williams, the
president of the class made the ad-
dress for his classmates, and spoke
of their appreciation of the help Civ
en- and the interest that had been
shown on all occasions by Colonel
Townsend. Trying in some way to
show how they valued all of this,
they were aided by Dr. Walter L.
Grier, who had the happy thought
of the photograph. Robert Shilling,
the superintendent of the Milford
schools accepted the picture for the
Board of Education. Colonel Town
send then made a short talk, telling
of his dream of the new school
building and of having lived to see his
dream come true. The school orches-

LOWEST YIELD OF
CROPSM 70 YEARS
Reports Dry Wave Has
Injured Production in
Many New States

Inroads of the drought have forced
the Department of Agriculture to
predict the lowest crop yield in 20
years, with the possible exception of
1921.
The August report issued this week
pointed to the continuation in Au-
gust of the recOrd-breaking dry
wave. and it's extension with injury
to crops into States that had not pre-
viOusly suffered.
With the exception of potatoes,
sweet potatoes and few other
CROPS, food products shortage has not
become pronounced as yet but the
corn crop, chief victim of the long
drv spell, was forecast at only 1885,
100000 bushels, the smallest since
1901. This indicated yield marked a
1914 per cent reduction in the past
month, the direct result of the in
tense heat in August. The actual
corn shortage was estimated at more
than 7OO,OOO,OOO bushels.
A different picture was presented
by the departments prediction OF the
wheat, oats and barley crops, how
ever, with the estimates for Spring
wheat increased since August l by
$1,000 900 bushels, oats by 10000
900 bushels and barley by 17,OOO,OOO
bushels.
Wheat production was estimated at
S37. .761 900 bushels, compared with
SOC. .79O. 900 bushels last year. OF this,
597 1892, 900 bushels is Winter wheat.
The oats crop was forecast at 1890

DELAWARE FRUIT
SENT TO MANY LANDS
Twenty To Forty Carloads OF Apples
Are Exported Each Week

Consumers of apples in South
American countries, as well as in

served with fine quality of fruit from
the Diamond State" Delaware ap-
pies are well-known in most of the
foreign countries and this year the
fine quality fruit which Delaware eX-
ports has assumed a leading place
in the export markets, due to the
fact that Great Britain has ruled
against the importation of anything
EXCEPT U. S. No. 1 or U. S. Fancy
grade of apples.
Delaware growers and shippers
have for the past three weeks been
exporting about 20 to 40 cars of ap-
ples each week. The principal va
rieties exported are JOnathans, King
Davids and Delicious, and the price
has ranged principally from $3.75 to
Sc per barrel, according to the varie-
ty and size The Delaware growers
and shippers are in a very favorable
position this year also, due to the
fact that practically all foreign coun-
tries require d OCdIe-r eueIdl CSIClh-
cate showing the quality of the ap-
pies before they will be accepted for
export.

Bureau of Markets, for the State
Board of Agriculture, started this in

this service has increased greatly
