s5OO,OOO IS SAVED
FOR OUR STATE
Terry Says Special Deal viii
Prevent Any Loss of Fed
eraI Road Assistance Gifts
ATTENDED CONFERENCE

The state will avoid losing $780,
600 in Federal highway funds, Sec
retary of State Charles L. Terry,
Jr., said Saturday night, explain
ing a special arrangement can be
made with federal authorities. The
Delaware Highway Users Confer
ence had charged that Delaware
would lose the funds during the
next two years because of the law
recently passed by the legislature
borrowing S80O,000 for other state
purposes from the State Highway
Department through non-interest
bearing and non-negotiable certifi-
Gates. Mr.. Terry and w. w. Mack,
chief engineer of the State High
way Department, conferred with
T. H. Mcdonald, chief engineer of
the Federal Bureau of Public
Roads, in Washington Saturday.
Mr.. Terry said he was satisfied
with the outcome and added de-
tailed report of the conference
would be given Gov. Richard c..
McMullen. Hugh F. Gallagher,
chairman of the Delaware High
way Users Conference, said the
Washington Bureau had contacted
Mr.. Mcdonald and he had said the
law was really diversion of funds.
Unless certain changes are made
in the law, the federal penalty will
be applied and Mr.. Terry has been
advised what these changes must
be, Mr.. Mcdonald is reported to
have said. Mr.. Gallagher asked
Governor McMullen and Secretary
Terry Friday that an amendment
be enacted making the certificates
interest bearing and negotiable at
a total approximate cost over the
five-year period of S64 900. Mr..
Gallagher was later informed
nothing like this would be done by
the administration.

Definitely Killed 1t

The bill to give the Wilmington
Deepwater Tunnel Company au-
thority to construct a tunnel be-
tween Delaware and New Jersey
met its second defeat of the session
early Tuesday, and it is now be-
lieved the measure is definitely
dead. This bill was first defeated
more than week ago and efforts
to have it reconsidered failed until
early Tuesday when Speaker Fad
er, sponsor of the bill, took the
floor and moved for reconsidera-
tion. This caught some of the op-
ponents of the bill unawares, as the
House was working under suspen-
sion of rules and the rule that pro-
vides a bill must be reconsidered,
if at all, within three days of its
defeat did notsprevail. Mr.. Fader
then called the bill up again for
final action and it was defeated by
a vote of II to Is.

PEACH : APPLE
ORCHARD BUDS
Look Well From Their Recent
Spray Treatments and
Promising
BIG CROP is EXPECTED

In his recent edition of spray
notes DR.. ]. F. Adams, plant path
ologist of the University of Della
ware, stated that the weather has
been favorable for steady devel-
opment of apple blossom buds, and
that most of the varieties will be
in the pre-pink stage this week,
while the early blooming varieties
such as the Early Ripe will have
reached the full pink stage. In
regard to scab control, therefore,
says r. E. Wilson, county agent,
it is very essential that thorough
spray coverage be maintained on
all varieties through the pre-pink
and pink bud stages. For this
spray the growers have been ad-
vised to use commercial lime sui
phur at the rate of 2 gallons to 100
gallons of diluted spray. Bordeaux
mixture of the 4-S-10O formula, or
an insoluble copper spray, however,
may be substituted for those va
rieties not subject to russeting, but
which are susceptible to frog-eye
leaf spot. Starting with April 26,
all pink sprays should be combined
with lead arssenate 3 pounds and
lime pounds to each 100 gallons
of spray solution The peach bios
som period has practically passed
without any disturbing tempera-
ture effects, or infection from
brown rot. DR.. L. A. Stearns, en-
tomologist at the Delaware exper-
iment station, reports that the
peach moth shows only 81 percent
