Advantages of Worcester.

We are indebted to the Baltimore
Sm for a copy of its comprehension
book published in the interest of the
state of Maryland and distributed free
of charge to visitors on Maryland Day
at the Worlds Fair The book is en-.
titled -" Maryland, lis Resources, In
dustries and Agricultural Condition. y
1t contains an invaluable amount OF
information for those unacquainted
with our State. Every Marylander
should feel uvder obligations to the
SIM for its commendable enterprise and
interest in our grand old commonwealth.
OF Worcester county it says:
Worcester is the only county OF
Maryland which touches the Atlantic
Ocean. The coast is sand-barrier,
inside of which is Sinepuxent Bay
and Chincoteague Sound. The whole
region offers many inducements for
enterprise and development, the natural
resources being timber, fisheries, f;Icili-
ties tor oyster planting, and a soil and
climate wonderfully adapted for the
early production of small fruits and
vegetables. Worcester and Caroline
are the only counties of eastern Mary
land which do not touch the Chesa-
peake Bay. All the other seven
counties have the Chesapeake for the
western boundary, while the Delaware
line runs straight down the Peninsula
In Worcester county, settlers are
wanted and tracts of land, in sizes to
suit, can be had in great numbers.
Not more than one fourth of the land
is worked by the owners, the balance
under cultivation being rented.
