but that all civil works administra-
tion projects, the employees must
be taken from the State Relief list
and are paid directly by the c. w. A.
officials who are the same as the
Temporary Relief Commission. The
Highway Department prov illes pro-
jects by survey and supervises them
but makes no selection of laborers
and no payments to them. On con-
tract jobs for construction of State
roads, the workmen are taken from
the Re-Employment list and only
those men are used who have first
signed up at the local Federal Re-
Employment Offices located at Will
mington, Dover and Georgetown.
These men are used by contrac-
tors who have been awarded the bids
by the Highway Department and
again the department itself only
uses its regular inspectors. Last
week and this week between 1900
and 1900 men are being employed in
the State on these different projects
despite the fact that usually most
of the real road building is over un-

DR.. Thomas B. Symons, also of the
University of Maryland, stressed the
Importance of foreign trade to the
horticultural industry. a.
Joseph G. Harrison, president o
| Harrison's Nurseries, Inc, of Ber-
lin, president of the organization
pl esided at the meeting and made
the address of welcome to the more
than 800 nurserymen from Mary
land, Delaware and Virginia who
were present. i
The principal address Tuesday af-
ternoon came from Professor A. J.
Farley, expert in pomology, New
Jersey Agricultural Experiment Sta
tiOn, New Brunswick, N. ].
In citing his peach and apple
spraying experiences in New Jersey
orchards during 1888, Professor Far
ley urged the use of proper sprays
at proper times in order to prevent
waste. He explained the Importance
of complete coverage in spraying or
chards, urging special care to be
taken by peninsula fruit tree grow
ers in spraying the tops of fruit
trees in order to kill the main source
of codling moth, apple sca5 disease,
plant lice and the brown rot in
peach production.
"The year 1888 was an ideal sea-
son for insects and diseases among
orchards in New Jersey and the Eas-
tern Shore of Maryland" said Prof.
Farley. There was much rain maxi
ing it difficula to spray the fruit
trees and coupled with that came
the storm of last August and the Ge-
preston"
He urged orchardists to spray
peach trees as thoroughly as apple
trees in the future. "It is essential
that changes be made in present
peach spraying practices in order to
control the brown rot disease and
the only way we can kill the disease
and keep It from producing is by the
use of early season sprays to reduce
the brown rot infection in peach
trees to a minimum" he concluded.
Tuesday morning the Fruit. Veg
etable and Commercial exhibit was
officially opened in the Tyre Garage
building by the exhibit chairman,
Allison P. Collins, of Berlin, and dis
plays of over 25 varieties Of fruits
and vegetables grown on the Eas-
tern Shore greeted early visitors.

CHICKENS ENJOY COMFORT

Winter egg production is unnat-
ural. 1t is the result of "civilizing
our poultry stock. Consequently 1t
appears obvious that we use every
effort that is practical to see that
our laying birds are kept in an en-
vironment which provides dryness,
reasonable warmth, plenty of floor
and feeding space, and an abundance
of feed. We can include aid of this
in the one word comfort"
Pullets on dirty litter, on floors
sparsely covered with litter, in
cramped or poorly lighted quarters,
in houses that are drafty or extreme
ly cold, with insufficient water and
feed supply or water vessels and
feed hoppers and fed on unpalatable
rations, are not comfortable. When
birds huddle together in one part of
the house or upon the roosts and
remain inactive for hours at time,
it is evident that they are uncom-
Portable.
Very often such birds are found
to have empty crops and lay but very
few eggs. Profits are not forthcom-

the chairman discuss with the At
torney General certain practices
that have been carried on in Sussex
county"
This was the climax of the relief
commissions contention with its
member for Sussex county, and it
was what precipitated filing charges
of mismanagement with Governor
Buck against Mr.. Layton, bringing
about the current investigation.
Adjournment of the investigating
committee was taken Tuesday until
10:30 a. M, January 2, in the same
place-the Orphans Court room at
the County Building in Wilmington,
to continue questioning Mr.. Geisler
and the firm of Mack and Attix, the
accountants who were retained to
make an audit of the commissions
books.
After this phase of the question

Alexander r, Abrahams, a member
of the committee, as he replied to
question of'Attorney John J. Morris
on his motion for adjournment, the
committee will move its hearings to
Georgetown to hear Mr.. Layton's
arguments, then will return to Will

individual complaints. Mr.. Morris is
an attorney retained by the commit

Adjournment was taken until jan

to interfere with the Christmas bus
mess of Mr.. Layton, who is pro-
prietor of the largest wholesale
store in Sussex county. Other fac
