MAY ON
STATE CROPS
Season Behind From One to
Two Weeks Compared
With Last Year
FRUIT OUTLOOK GOOD

Farm work in general is report
ed to be behind schedule from one
to two weeks compared to a year
ago, according to the May 1 crop
survey made by the Delaware Crop
Reporting Service. However, last
year farm work at this time was
unusually early, therefore in gen.
eral, the crop season this year is
only slightly later than usual. The
month of April was cool and rain
fall was reported by the United
States Weather Bureau to have
been 81 percent above normal.
Plant growth has been retarded by
the unreasonable weather. Very
little corn has been planted to
date. Rainfall has helped wheat
and grasses to certain extent,
but wheat is beginning to show the
effect of too much moisture in
some sections. The outlook for
fruit crop was reported to be ex-
cellent in most of the State. A
few days of warm open weather
will materially hasten plant grow
tn and put the season up to about
normal
May 1 condition reports indicate
a Delaware winter wheat crop of
1 ,349, 900 bushels. This is 10 per-
cent smaller than the 1888 crop of
1 100000 bushels and Is percent
below the 10-year (192S-37 aver
age production of 100000 BUSH
els. The acreage of wheat re-
naming for harvest is estimated
at 1000 acres as compared with
83, 900 acres harvested last year
and the 10-year (1928-37) average
of 81 900 acres. Indications are
for yield of 1910 bushels per acre.
Last years yield was 200 bushels,
the 1O-year average, ia bushels.
Rye acreage remaining for har-
vest this year is estimated at g.
900 acres. The expected yield per
acre of 1870 bushels on this acre
age indicates production of Ill.,
900 bushels. This is about 10 per-
cent larger than last years pro-
duction and 48 percent above the
10-year (1928-37) average produc-
ton. At 81 percent of normal the
condition of tame hay on May i
was points higher than a year
ago and 9 points above the 10
year average May l condition. Re-
ported condition of pasture on May
1 was "a percent of normal. COM
pared with 80 percent last May
and the 10-year average May /
condition of 76 percent Stocks of

timated at $4,000 tons. The car
ry-over on the same date last year
was $4,000 tons and the 10-year

DEATH OF
JAMES H. HALL, DUCK CREEK
James H. Hall, residing between
this town and Duck Creek, who

fall with the slow and wasting dis
ease of consumption, died on Mon

weeks this event was inevitable,
and both he and his friends were

death calmly and resolutely, hav-

with this in view as the object of
his being, some years ago. Mr..

man and good citizen, and leaves
many sympathizing friends for his

F. M. BURROWS, KENTON, IN
RUNAWAY TEAM

On Friday last F. M. Burrows of
Kenton, who had been in this town
with his wife and children, started
for home just as the fierce wind
and binding dust came up. In the
midst of the rear and crash and
flying particles the horse took
fright. Mr.. Burrows managed him
until the depot was reached, when
seeing the possible fate that await
ed them with the animal past con-
troll, they managed in some way to
get out. The horses head in the
got turned the other
way, when he dashed down Com
merce to Main street and thence to
the Belmont road via Parsons Hill
as hard as he could clatter to Ken
ton, reaching home after a run of
six miles without any damage ex-
cept some minor parts of the har-
ness. A large bulletin board was
picked up by the wind and dashed
into the window of ]. w. Jones,
breaking one of the large glass,
and would have broken the other
window likewise but for the fact
that its flight was intercepted by
Will Wright's head A sore head
was the result, but the window
was saved. The new large barn of
J. ?. Collins in Thoroughfare Neck
was moved three inches from its
foundation. Several shade trees
were broken with several other
minor damages.

REV. r. K. STEPHENSON AND
FAMILY SURPRISED

On Friday evening last the mem
bers and friends of st. Paul's M.
E. Church at Clayton came to
town on the 8 p. m. train and stop
ped at the circuit parsonage and
surprised their pastor, Rev. r. K.
Stephenson and family. They
came to the number of thirty or
more. many being detained be-
cause of the rain. They brought
baskets and bundles. In a few
moments the beaming face of
George NJ. Stevenson was seen at
the door, who left behind him four
cans of ice cream. The visiting
ladies took charge of the house
and soon had the table set to
which all were invited and did JUS
tice to the occasion. But in the
meantime wagon drove up to the
door and the pastor inquired if an
other family were moving in, but,
he was informed to the contrary.
1t proved that the surprise was not
over for the gentlemen brought in
a handsome bed room set of an
tique oak. In the midst of the en-
joyment four ladies walked in
completely masked. They were
very polite and most gracious in
their bows. They were soon rec
ognized as some of the party left
behind at Clayton, who evidently
secured a team and followed. Af-
ter trying in vain to persuade
them to remain and spend the ev-
ening they at last consented to re
tire to the parlor chamber and un-
mask. They came down in the
parlor and to the discomfort of
many who had. pulled and hauled
on the visitors in a familiar way
they found the INTO be some ladies
Of Smyrna who came in to pay
their respects to the friends gath
cred and add a little fun to the oc-
casion. After singing and prayer
the pastor thanked them for their
expressions of kindness and good
will. At IL p. M, they all took
the train for Clayton, leaving be-
hind them besides an abundance of
ice cream and cake, bundles of
-four, fruit and groceries.

her residence, on Delaware street,
last night, in the 81st year of her
age. She was in her usual health
and cheerful spirits up to few
minutes before she died, and the
blow comes with more impressive
force on her friends because of the
suddenness, especially on her be-

Mrs. Penniwell was already abed,
