TWENTY YEARS AGO

Peter Hoyely OF Brawley is work
ing on a project to have all valley
cantaloupes next year placed un-
ger the control of one man, so ia
as distribution is concerned. 1t is
his belief that the country is cap
able OF absorbing many more melons
than are grown in the valley pro-
viding correct distribution can be
obtained.

TO RIPEN TOMATOES

If handled right, tomatoes will
ripen successfully after light frost
has killed the vines. 1t is probably
best to pick all the tomatoes after
the first frost. Select only unin-
jured fruits that are mature or
nearly so, and avoid bruising or
other injury. Those in the right
stage or rippeness show a yellow
ish-white color near the blossom
ends or on the sides. A well-venti-
lated dry cellar is a good place for
rippening. Put the tomatoes in one
layer on shelves or shallow trays.
If the room is dark the tomatoes
will ripen more uniformly. At a
temperature of about 20 degrees F.
with a humidity of from rs to 80
per cent, tomatoes ripen rapidly but
do not keep we'll after ripening. At
a temperature of go degrees F. they
ripen at a moderate rate. A tenn
perature of about 55 degrees F. is
the lowest at which they will ripen
satisfactorily.

FINE BIG THINGS AND
SOUND ECONOMICS

Are you sending your daughter to
college this year?
Many young people are being sent
back to seats of learning for post
graduate work this fall so that they
may valuably employ their time and
perfect themselves as experts in
stead of seeking jobs in a year
when there are so many unemploy-
ed
This seems a very fair and fine
thing for parents to do if they can
afford it. Rather than send your
children out to compete against the
vital breadwinners" wait until the
economic pendulum has swung
back a bit.
If you are this sort of parents, or
if your children are going back to
school because they have not yet
graduated, you will be interested
just the same in pleasant economics.
This is a splendid year to do fine
big things with your money if you
can, and also to engage in sound,
intelligent economies.

is the thalweg, or main navigable
channel. In substantiation of that
claim, Mr.. Minard submitted exhibits
showing that by Article l of the
Treaty of Paris between England
and the American Colonies, New
Jersey took title to the ship chan
mel; while Delaware took title to the
bed and waters on the west side of
the channel in the river and bay.
The Delaware exhibits in the case,
of which there are more than 220,
are being submitted this week, by
Mr. Satterthwaite, Mr.. Switzerland
and George n. Davis, associated with
them in the defense.
Adjudication of the dispute rests
with the United States Supreme
Court to which tribunal Special
Master Rawls will submit a report,
probably about two months hence.
1t is hoped that the Supreme Court
will hand down a decision before
next May when oyster fisheries for
1882 begin in earnest.
Because of the unusual volume of
exhibits, bound volumes of legal
compilations from ancient times;
papers, maps of Colonial origin, and
other documents, many additional
tables had to be placed in the court
room Monday. Even the heavy brass
chains which mark the prisoners
docket, were unlocked to furnish
additional space for the extensive
layouts of both sides.
The action was brought two years
ago by New Jersey against Della
ware; and as the litigation concerns
two sovereign States, international
law is the basic law invoked in the
case. A great mass of interesting
Colonial history is being presented
by both sides. In fact, Mr. SOuther-
opening outline of Della
wares claims in the boundary dis
pute formed among other things
miniature course in early Delaware
history, whose terseness and scope
would gladden. the heart of any un-
iversity professor of American his
tory.
The hearings will consume the re-
mainder of the week.

normally reached by regular Amer
ican trade. Coffee merchants, how
ever, have objected to the coffee
barter which makes the Farm Board
the largest prospective coffee holder
in the country.
Other large stocks of wheat may
be disposed of next winter through
direct sale at low cost or gifts by
Congressional authority to cOmmun-
ity chests for distribution in -four or
as bread among poor and unemploy-
ed in cities. Board members have
given the proposal considerable
thought.
Such unloading of the surplus at
intervals will save the board mil
lions in storage charges, but at pres
ent prices it stands to suffer losses.
Southern states are now giving
close attention to the plan of Gov
ernor Long, of Louisiana, which
would prohibit growing cotton next
year and require the Farm Board to
purchase 100000 bales of this
years crop at cost of S320,000, 900.
Direct comment cannot be obtained,
but it is known that board members
see little merit in Longs plan.
1t was said the board cannot pos
sibly make stabilization purchases
without additional funds. In view of
the national deficit, prospective un-
relief demands and the
of the next Presidential
another Congressional ap-
preparation is held unlikely.
