REMOVAL OF SAND
FLOODS SUSSEX LANDS
Private Beach Owners Allowing Bar
riOr Dunes To Be Destroyed

Many private owners of beaches in
the -Mispillion area are
subiecting neighboring lands to
flooding by bay waters, through al
lowing the trucking away of thou
sands of tons of sand constituting
the barrier dunes which, until recent
years protected this area from storm
tides. it was stated in letter to the
Delaware Waterfront Commission
from the Mosquito Control Commis-
sion. The latter commission is in
terested in preserving the rear-lying
marsh lands from storm flooding be-
cause of the thereby greatly increas-
ed mosquito control problem, and
the fact that satisfactory control is
sometimes impossible because OF
these conditions.
"Is there not something your com
mission can do to stop the removal
of sand from the Delaware Bay
Beaches the letter queries, where
same is causing the flooding Of the
adjacent marsh lands" Laws have
recently been passed forbidding the
removal of sand from all state and
municipal beaches, but they do not
control private owners who desire to
sell. OF permit removal Of sand from
their water fronts.
The letter specifically names a
property south of Fowler's Beach,
where sand has been trucked out by
a resident of Milford ito such an ex-
tent as to create breaks in the bar
rier Dunes" which soon increase to
gaps through which storm tides
sweep to food the marshes"
Eighteen months ago. a survey
made by the mosquito control work
ers, in an effort to get WPA grant
to re-dyke this section Of depleted
barriers, estimated that the $500
feet Of breaks would require $4,000
to repair. Last week., the letter
states I'VE had the same breaks sur
veyed and find now that the $500
feet Of gaps" have increased to
slightly more than 5000 feet Much
Of this Is due to the continued storm
erocion on the unprotected breaks,

MILFORD FARMERS USE
PLANE TO DUST BEANS
Florida Concern Busy busting Early
Bean Crop In Milford Area

The Globe Airways, Inc, of Miami,
Florida, has been busy all week
dusting beans in the vicinity Of Mil
ford. Among the crops busted have
been those of George H. Draper, Jr.,
Harry Jester, Jr., and many others.
According to those whose crops have
been busted by plane. the busting re-
suits are much better than those OBJ
tained by the old time mechanical
method, which at it's best would
cover only 20 to rs per cent of a
normal crop. Airplane busting gives
a 95 to 9s per cent eoverage and
uses less material. A plant can dust
IS. acres per hour at an average
speed of 1870 miles per hour, accord
ing to ]. L. Merritt, sales manager
for, the Globe Airways. Only the
most modern equipment with a spe-
cially constructed air foil is used.
Dusting of crops is highly recon-
mended BY the United States De-
partment Of Agriculture as being
most eficient. The busting is done
by H. r. Mitchell, who has had iTe
years experience In airplane crop
busting. A. L. Raymond is manager
Of the unit busting at Milford. Prior
to coming to Milford the men work
ed in South Jersey, where they sue
cessfully sprayed cranberry bogs,
peas, beans and tomatoes.
