Sounds fishy, doesn’t it? But every evening about sundown when most Towa farmers are shoveling corn to their grunting porken -, year-old Milt Delphy of Harpers Ferry can be found with his two sons on their fresh water lake sprinkling generous :handfulls of corn to the carp. Delphy claims the carp, which he seines from the nearby Missis- sippi river, thrive on’the corn diet, that “they caange from a poor fish to a fish with firm, white flesh that many can't tell’ from pike.” As a result, Delphy has become a carp “farmer” and has 75,000 carp on a corn diet in his four-acre lake. e eee Daily Empre Want ads Pay' ,\.N.«M,,,-NH¢',—¢,—-,,-»----“.,--,”-----,- NEW SHIPMENT SUNSHINE COOKIES and W AFERS Cellophane Wrapped GEORGE BROTHERS PHONES 92—95 Five Deliveries Daily KRR IS STBTE B PN SPGB 11 G678 5 Daily Cross-word Puzzle ACROSS Solution of Yesterday's Puzzle 7.
