Before the prayer there had been only one
thing which anybody scanned inclined to
look at with even half-pleased eyes the in
terror of the big hall that was from today to
be famous for years to come in the annals
of the Republican party. The eagle-sur-

Intensive Farming

This is the established phrase to ex
press that condition of farming where
each acre and every square yard of
each acre is made to produce the very
largest possible yield. One acre is thus
made to do the work of ten, nay of
even one hundred. Instances are of
record where fruits and vegetables
well cared for have yielded enormously
and with great perfection of product.
And what is now the exception may
become the rule under proper system
of intensive farming. What is required
for this result is small farms. The
Melvin Garden Farms near Annapo-
lis have been planned and beautifully
laid off with this object in view. The
land is of fine quality for the purpose,
easily improved, with high, healthy
building sites close TO the city of An
napolis. The easy terms upon which
Mr.. Melvin offers these Garden Farms
invite attention. Call and get his maps
and descriptive circulars and invest in

West Annapolis and Murray Hill
continue to present attractions 10 low
ers of suburban life, and to those who
want city advantages and onvenien-
ces combined with pure air, choice To-
cations and plenty of room for build
ings and large lawn and garden

point with pride and satisfaction to the
progress and sales already made and
to the promise which is thus ensured of
further development. The immediate
connection of Murray Hill with the
city of Annapolis makes it m ore val
liable with every improvement added
to the city. These lots are the finest To-
cations now offered in the city and the
character of improvements already
started make them especially desira BILE
for residence. There are also advanta-
ges in West Annapolis locations.

A snring Flower Garden

There is nothing that delights one more
than TO have bed of Hyacnths or Tu-

the people of Annapolis have not appre-
ciated this fact to the extent, that they
should, and whyP Have the prices for
bulbs been such, that they could not buy
them Or has there been no place where
the same could be purchased Now the
prices for the bulbs are low, and there is
no excuse, and there is a place where
the same can be bought.
1t is my desire to see whether the peo-
pie of Annapolis are really lovers of
flowers, and see whether 1t is any use to
have retail department TO my estab-
lishment for the benefit of the flower
buyers of this city. In consequence of
this fact will make an offer of bulbs,
the like of which has never been heard
of before.

of the brig Perry Stewart on Windmill

brig, Alexander Stewart.
The burning of the vessel was begun
