FISHER APPLIANCES
STRESSES OIL HEAT

That more and more people are
coming to realize the greater COM
fort and convenience available to
them through the use of low-cost
automatic oil heat is evidenced by
the fact that a National Oil Burner

Philadelphia, March II to %, ac-
cording to Mr.. Fisher of Fisher Ap-
pliances, local sales representative
for the H. C. Little Burner Com
pany, Inc, many of whose products

ment, Mr.. Fisher added, "The theme
of this exhibit is progress, which is
certainly in line with the rapid
strides being made by the oil burner
industry in contributing to our Am
erican way of life and our high Am
erican standards of living" He con-
cluded that in his opinion the in
dustry's greatest contribution is the
and perfection of auto
matte oil heat for small homes. Ac-
cording to Mr.. Fisher the H. c. Little
Burner Company now offers auto
matte heat for only few dollars a
month on F. H. A. terms.

FRANK JESTER UNCOVERS
METEOR

Sometime ago Frank Jester, of
Lynch's Heights, while out on Big
Stone Marsh ducking, stayed on the
marsh until after dark, during which
time he saw large meteor in the
western sky. The meteor, according
to Mr.. Jester, was a mass of whitish
fire with a long red and yellow tail.
Mi Jester followed the meteor's
course down from the heavens until
it struck the marsh about 400 feet
from where he was standing. Be-
cause of the lateness of the hour, Mr..
Jester decided to mark the spot as
nearly accurate as was possible in
the darkness and return the follow
ing day and search for the meteor
Returning the next day he failed,
after an exhaustive search to un-
cover the place where the meteor
struck. However, a few days ago,
Mr.. Jester again returned to the
marsh, and in searching along the
marsh shore noticed hole cut in
the shore, apparently by the tides;
something protruding from
the side of the hole, Mr.. Jester few
erishly dug in to the soft jelly-like
mass, and was rewarded by un-
earthing the meteor, which is ap-
IL inches across the
base, is shaped like an ancient Egyp- !
Lian pyramid and is 10 inches tall.
The cinder-like mass is blackish |

County Agent Makes
Report On Hybrids
tcOntinued ftOm FIrsl Paeel

are suited to Sussex county condi-
tions
The results obtained by Mr.. Phil
lips and by the county agricultural
agent show that to date the varieties
that have proven outstanding are:
u. S. No. 13-Single cared.
Funk G-84-single cared.
Funk G-130-mostly single cared.
Williams 19-two cared.
Funk G-125-two cared
u. S. No. 44-single eared-not
best on sandy soils.
Iowealth 2SN.
Iowealth 29A.
Iowa 939-a good short season hy-
brid.
These particular varieties can only
be- determined by comparative yields
and general performances on diff
ferent farms and it may be best for
the farmer to try small paintings of
two or three, if he already has not
done so. No matter what variety you
grow, hybrid corn will not yield well
on land of low fertility, it will do
no better under such conditions than
corn now being grown.
