Sweet Potato Crop Expected
To Be Large
Sweet potato growers in most sec
tiOns of lower Delaware, one of the
banner producing areas in the coun-
try, believe that prospects are good
for a banner crop. Weather condi-
tions, it is stated, were not favorable
some weeks ago. but favorable
weather has prevailed for the past
three weeks. The tubers are de-
veloping rapidly, especially in some
fields where they were planted early. |
The extreme western section of |
lower Delaware, extending from Del |
mar to Seaford and Bridgeville is
recognized as the sweet potato belt |
of the state. and in this area thou
sands of baskets are grown annually.
This means several hundred th0d-
sand dollars to the farmers. Prob
ably one Of the largest sweet pO-
tato shipping points on the Delmar-
va peninsula is Laurel, where each
year many carloads are consigned to
the northern markets.
II is not uncommon for growers
in the Laurel section to plant from
one to fifty acres. Some years ago
one grower planted about a hundred
acres from which he realized $4,000.
The real beginning of the great in
dustry. which has meant so much to
a large number of farmers in that
section within the past ten years,
was started seventy-six years ago by
James Elzey. Mr.. Elzey was a
farmer living near Laurel and he
saw the possibilities OF growing
sweets" and carried out his idea by
bedding out" the first patch on the
Oelmarva peninsula. That was the
Jeginning of the industry which has
proven one of the greatest farm
PRODUCTS of the South.
Prominent in agriculture in those
lays. Elzey believed in experiment

| LEGISLATION
FOR RELIEF

FREDERICK, Nd, July PA
broad program Of legislation TO
improve the position Of Mary
lands % counties, primarily con-
corning fiscal affairs, will be
drawn up for presentation to the
next session Of the State General
Assembly, it was agreed yesterday
at a meeting Of the western Shore
County Commissioners Assocla-
ton.
The representatives OF the IA
counties attending yesterdays con-
ference also expressed anxiety
over the method by which the
direct relief work in the counties
Is being financed.
At present each county Is adj
vancing these funds to carry on
this work in its respective areas,
with the understanding that they
all will be reimbursed from gen.
eral State funds now being col
lected under a special tax voted
at the last session Of the legiS-
lature.
Seek Reimbursement"
The county officials have ap-
pointed a subcommittee Of their
group to confer soon with State
Comptroller william s. Gordy to
determine when the reimburse
ment" may be expected. They
feel that unless this money is
Forthcoming soon the direct relief
work will have to be drastically
curtailed because Of exhaustion Of
funds. ~.
Mr.. Gordy told the meeting yes
terday that, while he could not
make definite promise at this
time, $3.50 900 should be available
under the special tax fund by
october /, and that it was possible
the ALLEGATIONS would be made at
that time on the authorized basis
of go per cent to Baltimore and
the remainder to be divided
among the States % counties.
One Of the major points in the
associations proposed legislative
program is q proposal to urge the
Legislature to permit the reaSSess-
ment Of all real estate In Mary
land.
Such q reaSSeSSment is SEIZED
uled, but it is feared by some that
q move win be made in the legis-
lature to pass legislation postpon-
ing this action for another year.
Ten Years Since Last
It was pointed out yesterday by
Michael j. Lindsay, Of the Mary
land State Tax Commission, that
1t has been 10 years since a reas-
sessment was made, and that in
many sections Of the State prop
erty values rise and decrease rap
idly.
He said that in making this real
estate assessment, q reaSSeSsment
Of personal property also could be
made, which he held as vital.
Other propositions which won
the approval Of the association
yesterday include:
Return Of maintenance Of the
county secondary roads to the re-
spective counties, instead Of by
the Maryland State Roads Com
mission from funds received from
the State gasoline road tax and
reallocation Of the distribution Of
the gasoline road tax funds.
