PUMPKIN RAISING
Lever COnnty'S Advance May Place
Delaware At Nations Top

If the past five years may serve as
a criterion. lower Delaware within
the next ten years may become one
of the nation leading sections in
the production of pumpkins for
commercial purposes as well as for
canning purposes.
Time was when the farmers only
produced enough pumpkins on their
farms to supply them for pies for
the Thanksgiving and Christmas hol-
idays, with few to spare for be-
tween-times.
Then. in the western section of the
county. especially in the vicinity of
Seaford and Bridgeville. they began
to grow them for factory canning to
send TO all parts OF the country.
Within the past five years the area
around Bridseville, Greenwood and
Seaford has grown in leaps and
bounds in the cultivation of the crop
because the farmers have come to
realize, as well as the packers, that
there is demand of prepared pump
kin from which pies may be made.
Canned pumpkin, within the past
five years, has been sold from the
shelves of grocerymen in Philadel-
phia, Wilmington. Baltimore and

FARM CASH INCOMES
TO INCREASE In 1910
L. r. WhltcOmb. Extension Specialist,
Says Improved Business Is CauSe

What can farm people expect for
1910?
This question is uppermost in the
minds Of many rural Delawareans
as the first of the new year draws
closer and Miss Louise r. Whitcomb.
Extension Specialist in Home Man
agement nj the University of Della
ware. has the answer
Farm cash incomes may be ex-
pected to increase next year" she
says. According TO information re-
ceiyed FROM the L. 5. Department of
Agriculture. the total receipts from
marketing farm products are ex-
pected TO increase in all parts of the
United States
She points out that the expected
increase in farm profits was due to
improved business conditions which
would mean that city workers will
have more money to spend and thus
would increase the demand for farm
products.
However" she adds. costs of
things farm families buy can be ex-
pected to rise generally throughout
the Nation"
According to government esti-
mates. food prices are expected TO
climb gradually; clothing prices are
starting up, and many sup
plies needed by farm folk will he
higher in 1910
There is a ray of hope for farm
people. though" Miss Whitcomb
says. IF costs of living rise. the
farm family. as group. will feel the
pinch less than many city families
because they can offset the rise in
food prices. at least in part. by
planning TO produce a larger-than-
usual share of their food supplies at
home This will release cash for
