Future Farmers

Future Farmers
Members of Georgetown Chapter
Future Farmers of America, return
ed last week from their annual out
ting at Riverdale Park on Indian
River.
We are glad to note several of the
boys of near Glendale who are
members of this organization, Clar-
ence Abbott, Jr., Daydynn Hoyt and
William Wolfe, all sons of success
full farmers. We congratulate these
young men on the stand they have
taken, as we believe that the Future
Farmers of America have a more
encouraging outlook to make liv-
ing than many farmers sons who
are now entering the overcrOwded
professions. Better stay on the
farms.
Inspection OF Automobiles
The inspection of automobiles is
now going on throughout the State.
This is a step in the right direction
and no one should be allowed to mo-
tor over the highways with a ma
chine which does not measure up to
the requirements of the law.
Accidents are often enough with
all the State can do in making the
cars more safe for motoring. There
are some things which the highway
department cannot prevent. They
cannot prevent people from drink
ing intoxicating liquors and driving
over the highways in a drunken
condition, threatening every one
they meet with utter destruction,
but we are glad to say, owing to the
watchful care, on the part of State
Highway police. accidents from this
cause are becoming more intre-
quent. May they continue so.
Mosquitoes And Files
Glendale and vicinity are having
a double portion of mosquitoes and
flies and there is no pleasure In sit
ting outside of the home. These |
pests are very severe on stock which
is not kept sprayed. We understand
that in some sections the night SER
vices in the churches had to be
abandoned on account of the pres
ence of these pests. If way could
he found to get clear of these in
sects in a way not too expensive, 1t
would be a blessing to the human
family.
New School Commissioner
Resident Judge Charles F. Rich
ards has reappointed John w. West
a school commissioner for the term
of four years. Mr.. West is now pres
ident of the board and is very much
interested in the public schools OF
Ellendale. He makes very ef1clent
public official.
Huckleberry Crop
This crop seems to be plentiful in
some sections. Our people are bus
ily engaged in picking these berries
and selling to dealers who ship
them to northern markets. The Ia
boring class reap quite a harvest in
gathering this crop, and the money
they get goes for clothing for them
selves and families, and provides
much of the food they eat. The
huckleberry crop is worth thous-
ands of dollars to the people oil
Kent and Sussex counties.
Lower Prices For Grain
The farmers who have wheat and
corn for sale have been hard hit by
the sudden dropping of prices on
these commodities. Let us hope they
will return soon to their former
nrices. at which the farmers can
make some money.
