Milford chronicle., 1934-05-18


The writer and his family extenI
to this heart-broken family thei
deepest sympathy-but only Coz
has the power to ease a suffering 81
great as they are now bearing.
Glendale VS.. Federnlsburg
A very interesting game of base
ball was played on the school house
grounds here last Saturday. The
score stood at the finish 8 to IL
favor of Glendale.
The Glendale Club will soon be
in a position to accept all challeng-
ers.
Strawberries
The fields around Glendale set in
Strawberries are at the present time
showing a scene of rare beauty. The
blooms are abundant and If frOsts
keeps away. there will be a crop IL
will be hard to measure. It is true
i'm these days we have berries from
the south at all times, hut they have
rot the flavor of the home grown
crop.
Asparagus
Home grown asparagus is getting
very plentiful and no doubt will be
cheap and those in poor circum-
stances will soon he able to buy this
plant at a very low figure.
Physicians say that this most de-
licious plant is good for the human
system, and people should eat great
quantities of it. This will not be
hard for some people TO do.
Trout
Our market is being regularly
supplied with that luscious fish cal
led trout. An old time vendor used
to call them: Great big yellow fin
ned trout from Slaughter Beach.
They are large and fine this sea-
son and the price reasonable. They
should go a long way in keeping
the larder filled of those who still
feel the weight of depression.
The Oil Situation
The striking of oil, if true, on the
Senator Townsend farm. near
Bridgeville, has set our people a.
glow with high expectations. The
Cleveland Petroleum Company has
many farms leased around Ellen
dale. We would advise people to
await further developments before
becoming unduly excited.
