KENT FARMERS TO
GROW NEW CROP
rContinned from First Paael

these areas, ther are many problems
with which these growers are not as
familiar as are those farmers in the
southern part of the state where
this crop is produced on an extern
sive scale for the commercial mar
kets.
The question of disease and insect
control presents one of the major
problems confronting the cantaloupe
growers at the present time, and as
sistance in these control measures
is being given by the extension SER
vice of the University of Delaware
and the agricultural experiment sta
tion. This subject of spraying and
busting was discussed at a recent
meeting of cantaloupe growers held
in Clayton, and county agent Rus
sell Z. Wilson suggested that dust
ing demonstration be arranged in
order that the proper method of ap-
plying the dust, and other points in
regard to the control of insects and
diseases might be demonstrated UNI
der field conditions.
A field meeting was scheduled for
the morning of June at the farm
of Raymond Ford near Clayton, at
which time the most effective meth
cd of busting these plans was dem
Onstrated by DR.. J. f. Adams, plant
pathologist of the University of Del
aware and the State Board of Agri-
culture, who has had experience i'll
conducting a number of busting eX-
periments with cantalOupes in this
State.
AS the result of three years of in
sect and disease control work in the
principal cantaloupe producing CEN
ters in Delaware, DR.. Adams found
that a opper-lime-aTsenate combi-
nation containing 20 per cent Gehy-
drated copper sulphate, 20 per cent
calcium arsenate, and go per cent
lime was the most efficient and eco
nOmical dust to use for the control
of such insect pests as the striped
cucumber beetle, squash ladybird
beetle, melon aphis, cutworms and
the twelve-spotted cucumber beetle,
and for such diseases as the downy
mildeW, leaf blight or rust, leaf spot,
mosaic and anthracnOse.
The first application should be
made soon after the young plants
push through the ground, or when |
the first beetles make their appear |
ance. The second application should |
follow when the vines are in bios
som, the third when the initial sets
of melons have started to net, and
the fourth about two weeks later,
depending upon the weather condi-
tions. One of the most effective
and practical methods of applying
this dust is with handcrank duster
which evenly distributes the mater
ial over the plants, while with lar
ger acreages it is advisable to use
a power duster after the vines have |
runners.

BY w. S. COUSINS

NEW YORK, April 20 UN.SD.
An eight-point drop in United
States Steel stock was the out
standing unsettling factor in the
stock market today. Coming as
it did today, at the bottom of a
20-point decline over the course
Of the last few weeks, and follow
ing a disappointing earnings
statement for the first quarter of
the year, the drop in steel to
1861 was the outstanding per-
Torrance of another reactionary
market.

STOCKS IN. NEW
LOW GROUND
FOR YEAR
Statistical Average Now Is
Less Than 2 Points Above
Bottom Achieved for 1880
BY THE SPECTATOR

NEW YORK, April 29.-An-
other session of decline has
placed the market in new low
ground for the year. Were it
not for the relatively higher level
of the utility group, the COM
poSite average long since would
have broken through the Decenl-
Der lows.
AS it is the current standing
at 1865 is less than 2 points
above the 1880 low at HAT.
U. S. Steel Report Shock
The investment community will
be in for somewhat of shock
upon persual of the first quarter
earnings of U. S. Steel. Although
the regular dividend was de-
clared, it will hardly prove SUI
.ficient to offset profit of but
S cents a common share, in view
of the fact that second quarter
prospects promise little improve
ment.
AS regards the outlook for a
near-term rebound, close students
Of the situation point out that
it is always difficult to estimate
in advance the exact hour when
a stock market crisis will end.
Securities again are being liqui-
dated without regard for intrinsic
values.
According to a commission
house compilation, at the begin
ming of this week there were 81
listed stocks yielding IS per cent
or more, lis yielding 10 to Is per
cent. 108 from 8 to 10 per cent,
200 between and 8 per cent, 102
from S to per cent, and "a Civ
ing less than S per cent yield.
Bad News Mostly In
Thus 10 per cent of dividend
paying stocks give per cent or
better and 40 per cent yield per
cent or more.
With nearly half the market dis
counting the possibility of divi-
dend cuts to some extent, it is get
ting into a position where bad
news will have less effect.

CLOTH MARKET

NEW YORK. April 90 G.N.SO.
Other than the weakening Of
prices of 1872 inch 64x60 5.35 yard
print cloths for contract delivery,
there we're few new features and
little change in coarse yarn gray
goods markets today. This con-
struction declined TO cents, but
it was no surprise to market
which had been subject to rumors
of such possibilities for week or
more and in which previous
transactions at this level have
been strongly intimated.
Other print cloths were gen.
orally unchanged, and carded
broadcloths we're quiet. Sheetings
were slow and with only small
spot transactions. Other goods
we're quiet.
