Razes Daley Co.

The alarm was sounded shortly
after 1 a. m. by a West Point cadet
home on Christmas leave.
The cadet, Reed Barrows, was
passing by and saw the flames. He
went to nearby home and called
firemen. Then, he alerted people in
the neighboring houses.
Six pieces of fire-ffghting equip
ment and about 20 men from the
two companies were on the scene
until about 6 a. N,
Cause of the fire was tentatively
set as q space heater in the COM
pany office.
The company was closed Tues
day and no one was in the ware
house that day.
The roof of the building caved
in during the fire but the walls of
the building were left standing.
The firm is a wholesale dealer
in cigarettes, packa5ea tobacco,
and confectionaries.
The building, a two-Story frame
structure, is owned by j. Emory
Wiley. He said both the building
and it's contents were partially
covered by insurance.
Flames were visible for some dis
tance and attracted large crowd
to the scene. Auxiliary policemen
were on duty directing traffic and
controlling the crowd.
Firemen returned to the scene
briefly at 10 a. m. when the still
smoldering paper threatened to
flare up again.

"In the coming year, the Ameri-

There will be sacrifices of sub

that have made our lives enjoyable
Such sacrifices will have to be
made if we are to lead the world

But they are the hard facts of our

decision to make these sacrifices
will have to be made by the Ameri-

Weekly Tree Talk
What To Do To Save Trees When
An Ice Storm Strikes

What To Do To Save Trees When
An Ice Storm Strikes
An ice storm can play havoc with
trees and shrubs. Limbs often frac-
ture under the weight of ice. The
bark may tear when big boughs
fall. Even trunks split or are up
rooted.
Supple birch and tall evergreens
may be bent out of shape by ac-
cumulated ice, according to Don
Cantwell, District Manager of the
Bartlett Tree Expert Co..
When an ice storm strikes, the
home owner can save smaller trees
and evergreens from too great dam
age. Before ice accumulates to the
limb b-breaking point, play stream
of water from the garden hose on
the tree or shrub. Tap water is
usually warmer than outside air
and will melt the ice. Don't pound
the tree in an effort to jar the ice
loose.
In the case of larger trees,
nothing can be done until the
storm stops. Then corrective re-
pair should begin. Stubs of broken
limbs should be removed flush to
the trunk. Weakened crotches
should be cabled. Unbroken limbs
may require heading in.
Broken or torn areas must be
cut and shaped to aid the tree in
healing and sealing the wounds.
Any break in the armor or bark
becomes an avenue of invasion for
wood rot fungi or bark beetles.
The entire tree should be pruned
to recover it's former symmetry.
Feeding when the frost leaves the
ground is absolutely essential. The
shape and condition of an ice-bat-
tered tree in its future years de-
pend upon the skill of the repair
work done.
Salt That Melts Ice POisOns
Trees, Shrubs
Salt used to melt ice on walks
and drives becomes poisonous to
trees and shrubs when it seeps
into the soil about their roots. The
injury will show up next spring,
according to Don Cantweh, Dis
trict Manager of the Bartlett Tree
Expert Co. Deciduous leaves turn
reddish-brown. Evergreens become
a blah yellow, Death of branches
follow. Entire border paintings
have been knewn to be killed by
salt injury. To avoid such damage,
spread salt-free sand on icy walks
and drives. Never use highway
sand for this is mixed with calcium
chloride. When salt injury is sus-
pected, flush soil around the plants
with water, then feed the plants
literally.

OUTPUT Off Last Season

ier. Irrigation protected some vege-
table fields against drought, but
the. dry weather reduced output of
lima beans, sweet corn, green peas
and tomatoes. The potato crop,
mostly under irrigation, turned out
the same as a year earlier, IT mil
lion hundredweight. Yields of
small grains-wheat, oats, barley,
and rye-were off sharply. Wheat
production was 81 per cent less
than in 1856, and the lowest on
record.
Maryland farmers harvested the
smallest corn crop in IA years.
With yields cut sharply by summer
drought, corn output for the state
was only Is million bushels-lit-
tie more than half of 1856. Also
hard hit was Maryland's vegetable
industry, with such crops as sweet
corn, tomatoes, green peas, lima
beans and cucumbers showing the
worst losses. The states total out
put of vegetables and melons in
1857 was placed at 201, 900 tons
3S per cent less than a year earlier.
The hay crop was smallest since
1914. Apple production suffered
some from dry weather, but rains
came in time to make fair crop.
Maryland soybean yields were
cut by drought, but with acreage
also the second highest in history,
total output dropped only below
the 1856 record. Production in 1857
was three and one-half million
bushels, compared with nearly one
million more a year earlier. Tobac-
co production, at 81 and one-half
million pounds, was the smallest
since l1945, mainly because of a
sharp cut in acreage planted. Late
summer rains saved the crop from
serious drought damage.
Yields of small grains were all
down from the 1856 level, primar-
lily because of bad weather at
planting time and soil moisture
shortages in the spring. The wheat
crop-at 3.4 million bushels-was
the smallest in nearly 100 years of
recorded statistics.

Delaware Food Market
Report
BY Anne Holberton
Agricultural Extension Service
University of Delaware

What is the story of Food in '58?
Food supplies are expected to be
large, almost as large as in 1857
according to the United States De-
partment of Agriculture. However.
as we start the New Year, food
prices are a little higher than they
were a year ago. This will be true
for the first half of the year, es-
pecially on some foods. A strong
demand is expected for some foods
that will be in shorter supply
foods such as beef and eggs. Also,
an increase is expected in the cost
of getting food from farm to gro-
Gerry store. This, too, will be re-
fiected in the retail prices of foods.
These are two reasons why prices
will be higher and food costs more
this year.
Total meat supplies for 1858 will
be close to the record high of last
year. A large supply of pork is ex-
pected at mid-year-a much larger
supply than that of last year. This
will help to lower meat prices dur
ing that period. However, we will
have less beef and veal on the
markets.
In the poultry line, there is
plenty of good news. Broilers and
fryers are plentiful and will con-
tinue so. The quality will remain
high and prices are, and will be
low enough to encourage increased
consumption of these delicious
tender chickens.
We are starting this year with
large supplies of canned and froz-
en- vegetables. Canned peas, as
well as frozen peas, are in un-
usually large supply. Many stores
will feature these peas at a good
saving for the consumer. Frozen
potato products are twice as abun-
dant this year, too. Also, there is
plenty of canned lima beans, corn
and green beans.
AS whole, things look good for
this year-1958.
This weekend look for good
buys" on pork roast, beef steaks,
ground beef and chickens. In the
fruit department continue to look
carefully and select wisely when
you are buying citrus fruits.
Oranges are spelling quite rapidly,
so buy only what you can use.
This spoilage is due to the freeze
during December IN the growing
areas and also to the fact that
many oranges have been held
over" in cold storage. Winter
pears, grapes and many varieties
of apples are all on the good buy"
list. Bananas continue to see-saw
in price.
