Reddy had scattered them. Probably
he had heard Short-Tail there, and
thinking it was a Mouse he had sprung
in the hope of catching Mr.. Mouse.
Short-Tail had ducked down in his tun
mel and then Reddy had got that
musky smell. That was why he had
turned up his nose and gone elsewhere
to hunt.

Peter, turning up his own wabbly lit
lie nose. Then he grew thoughtful.

of just how the clubhead should work.
One way to gain the proper feeling of the
clubhead coming onto the ball is to loos-
en- the muscles of the wrists until the
hands seem to hang loosely from them,
apparently ready to fall off. The fin
gers must grip the club firmly enough,
but properly held the clubhead will
appear like the weight on the end of
a string. In this way the body can be
brought gradually into the swing, the
hands and wrists waiting to help the
clubhead through. One thus gets the
feeling of cracking the whip. In the
above illustration the dip of the club
head beyond the horizontal in the
backswing shows how flexible Jones'
wrists are.

KENT AGENT URGES
SEED CORN TREATMENT
[COntinned from FirM Paael

County Agent Russell E. Wilson.
The economic value of this practice
has been proven by the increased
yields per acre in the control of dis
eases and in the production of more
solid and mature corn at harvest.
The yield calculations in these
demonstrations each year have been
made by weighing a certain amount
of corn from given area in both
the seed treated and check plots in
the same fields. The average yield
of corn per acre from the 40 farms
which have been included in this
project Tor the past six years was
4S.14 bushels, while the corn which
was. grown from treated seed on
these farms during this period yield
ed 52.32 bushels per acre. This has
resulted in an average increase of
40 bushels per acre, or an addi-
tional return of about 1920 per acre
to those farmers who have followed
this practice each year.
Taking these facts into consider
alton It would seem advisable for
every corn grower to treat his seed
i'm order that the highest yields and
quality of corn may be produced on
a limited acreage, and thereby con-
form to the economic production
program of our government.

S2,5OO,OOO SCHOOL
BUILDING MONEY
NOW AVAILABLE
[Confinnld from Firm Pagrl

tCOHfinHtd from FirJt Page1
Fund of the State ON May LIST was
less than $11,0OO.
Public opinion, as it can best be
judged, would appear not to sustain
my view that $1,000 900 is an unwar-
ranted premium to pay for one
school which in itself is to cost ST.
100000 to build. The money is in
hand and the people evidently want
II spent regardless of the magnitude
of the outlay or the effect upon the
public treasury. | reach this con-
clusiOn from the petitions, letters,
and delegations received, from read
ing the press. and from the popular
vote which the bill received in its
passage through each house.
Vt is generally known that | have
undertaken 10 have the school au-
thOrities and their friends consent
to smaller appropriation I'm order
to conserve the States finances at
this period and at the same time
provide enough money to meet the
actual emergency that exists for
new Wilmington high school. The
suggested amount was 81 ,666,666.
The idea was not favorably receiv-
ed, so far as | know, and in the case
of the State school board it was
handled with extreme caution and
disposed of with astonishing iinesse.
When asked il they would approve
an appropriation of $1.666, ,GG6. they
answered:
"In reply to your letter of the
18th inst. in regard to the views of
the State Board of Education con-
corning a school building program,
beg to advise that the matter was
brought to the attention of the
State Board of Education in a spe-
cial meeting yesterday. and after
thorough discussion 1t was moved.
seconded, and unanimously carried,
that the Governor, in reply to his |
letter, be advised that the State
Board of Education is unanimous i'm
regard to the emergency needs of the |
schools of the State, but is not unan- |
imous on the financial question in
volved, and that the State Board |
suggests that 1t should
not be required to register vote on
this aspect of the question
"That the Board was mot unani-
nous on the financial question in
vOlved' meant, as | was later in
formed. that a majority were favor
able to accepting an appropriation

Drding their views.

of $$2,5OO,0O0 is unwise.

ieve that the Act would never be-
come a law If l veto it. in which
3ase the chance of high school for

approval"

warning for growers to place all in
tested picking baskets and othel
fruit containers in tight stOrages,
and to also close all packing houses
to prevent the adult moths from es-
Gaping to the orchards. Where rosy
aphis are troublesome It is advised
that nicotine sulphate at the rate of
l pint 10 100 gallons of spray be
used.
At this time the petal-fall spray
should be applied to all varieties of
apples, and for this application the
growers are advised to use the lime

strength. Where Bordeaux is substi-
tuted for lime sulphur. the 2-4-5O

pounds hydrated lime to so gallons
water) is recommended, and to each
100 gallons of spray mixture three
pounds of arsenate of lead and six
pounds of hydrated lime should be
added.
In discussing the fruit situation
with regard to peaches, Dr.. Adams
stated that the series of frOsts dur
ing the last two weeks in April
caused extensive losses to peach
buds varying from rs to 100 per
cent i'm many paintings throughout
this area. The extent of freeze in
jury is coon determined. but the ex-
tent of frost damage may not be
evident for many weeks. The pos
sible set at this time. however, is
favorable for fair crop this year.
Leaf curl is omre general this
spring than has occurred for over
a decade, and where heavy infection
is found it would be advisable to
feed the trees to offset the loss
caused by the diseased foliage which
will eventually mature early and
drop. Brown rot twig blight which
came in with a late pre-blossom in
fection is now mature, and the max
imum injury is apparent at this
time. Peach moth has shown 100 per
cent pupation. and the heavy period
of emergence will occur during the
first part of May. while the emer-
gence of the curculio has been 'e-
ported in the Bridgeville area.

HOW TOLAY A
ROOF ON YOUR
POULTRY House
If You Live In The Vicin-
ity Of BridgevilIe Plan
To Attend This Demon
stratiOn On May Is.

Would you like to learn how to
lay a roof on your poultry house
that will cost less and wear longer
than any roof you ever built before?
If you would like to see and learn
how this is done attend the demon
stratiOn on Thursday, May is. from
8 a. m. to 1 p. m. on the farm of
Senator Chas. w. McCauley, located
on the March-Hope Bridge road
near Bridgeville.
The asphalt and the asphalt sat
urated felt which is used for con
structing these built-up rOofs costs
about as much per hundred square
feet as a high grade eighty-five
pound slate surfaced roofing. A lit
tie more labor is required to lay
this built-up roof, but once it is laid
it is proof against wind damage and
will last three or four times as long
as the ordinary composition roof.
Since the material for this roof
must be heated and put on while
hot, the work must be done on a
fairly warm day that is not windy.
In case of unfavOrable weather on
the 18th the roof will be laid the
next fair day.
Arrangements for conducting this
demonstration have been made by
County Agent G. r. Snyder, in CO.
operation with Senator McCauley,
who is roofing a 20 so poultry
house. H. S. Palmer, poultry spe-
cialist. University of Delaware, and
Prof. H. r. Baker. poultry patholo-
gist. State Board Of Agriculture, will
attend this meeting and will speak
on various phases of poultry dis
eases and other poultry problems.
Later on. similar demonstrations
will he held at Laurel, DagsborO and
Millville.
If you live in the vicinity of
Bridgeville plan to attend this dem
onstration on May 1S and see how
a roof is laid without the sound of a
hammer.
