Time Lower Delaware's
Greatest Show Event
Has Been Postponed.

Following out the decision made
by the Kent and Sussex Fair AS
sOciation last summer, the annual
Kent and Sussex Fair will not be
held this year since the action last
year decided to cease holding the
Fair for the duration of the war.

Thus for the second consecutive
year this event, usually held dur
ing the last week in July, will not

year the Fair had been held reg
ularly each year since its incep-
tiOn in 1921 and had become one
of the highlights for the summer
season on the Delmarva Peninsula.
The Fair Association has offered
the use of the fair grounds to the
federal government for any use
they desired for it but thus far
the site has not been used for any
activity.
In the absence of the Fair har-
ness race devOtees are planning
of matinee meets. similar
to these hold last year. in an ef-
fort to provide some amusement
for the devOtees of this sport.

Health Projects
For Club Women
Health Board Submits Program TO
State Club Women

Community gardening and can
ming to provide next years school
lunches for children. the exami-
nation and correction of physical
and dental defects of children Who
will enter school in September
were two of the projects recon-
mended by the State Board of
Health to the women assembled
last week in Dover for the 46th
annual convention of the State
Federation of Women's Clubs.
Other projects with which the
board hopes that many club women
will assist are plans in their own
communities for the day care of
children of working mothers. and
the encouragement of both high
school and college girls in enter
ing the nursing profession since so
many nurses are needed. both on
the battle front and at home.
Club women have long been rec
ognized as leaders who may mould
public opinion in their own COM
and the State Board of
Health hopes that all these needs
will receive the assistance of Del
aware club women of all organiza-
tions.

Sussex Berry Season
Is Nearing End
Has Been One OF Shortest In Re-
cent Years; Prices High

One of the shortest strawberry
seasons in recent years neared a
close in Delaware the first of this
week. after only a two-week har-
vesting season. The yield was only
a third of last -yeaF's' harvest. aIz
though the price was considerably
higher.
During the 1912 season, a total of
about $4,000 crates were sold at
the Laurel Farmers Auction Block.
The total this year is but 5000
crates. Last year, the berries sold
for a total of $4,000, or an aver
age of S312 per crate. This years
berries sold for nearly $4,000, or
an average of about $5.75 per
crate.
The short crop was due to the
unfavOrable season. Late frosts
killed many of the blossoms. The
crop was then delayed by cool
weather. and by the time the ber-
ries began to ripen. hot summer
weather. during the past week,
brought the season to an abrupt
close.
The Laurel block was open Mon
day for a few hundred crates. but
it was planned to close down af-
ter Wednesday for about two weeks
until the squash and blackberry
season opens.

There are many hardships and

and women on the farms know that
food is ammunition. that without
it the war cannot be won. And so
they work from sun-up to sun

When these crops are ready.
they must be harvested and canned

Picking vegetables in the fields
and canning them in the factories
