The corn acrea.ee this year will be about the same as last year, although a great deal more attention is being paid to the condition of the ground, the fertilizers and the seed than in years past. Efforts to raise larger crops than usual are general, largely due to the interest aroused by the com show contests, fnirlng the pa.st week considerable of the acreage for potatoes in the county was planted, although some of the larger fields will remain open until aboi the middle of May.

Many farmers fear rotting if the potatoes are planted too early and it is Just as well if they were not in the ground during the wet spell.

The machinery in the building is not included in the sale. The property is considered very cheap, as it comprises one acre of ground and the building alone cost $2,000 to erect. A report was recently circulated that William E. DeLong of AUentown, and Charles W. Eschenbach, this place, had rented the plant for the purpose of starting up another shirt factory and it is possible that the Alburtis Shirt Mills bought the property to avoid competition.

While Messrs. DeLong and Eschei-bach have been deprived of a building to start up a shirt manufacturing business through the sale, a report Is circulated that negotiations are under way to acquire some ground more suitable and erect a factory to start up the business.
