Arithmetic Applied to Garbage.

10 the Editor of The Evening Star:
Two years ago the Commissioners order
ed police investigation of the garbage
service, which developed the fact that the
maximum capacity of the plant was be-
tween 5000 and 5000 visits day, the con-
tract calling for 5000 visits. The con-
tractors plant, as the Commissioners must
know, has not been increased since then
by even a single cart.
The question arises here. if the contrac-
tors plant could only visit 6,UO houses
daily two years ago how can the same plant
be made any more effective now by forcing
the people to buy patent garbage buckets ?

Wheat.

Wheat is AZ cents a bushel at the
warehouses in Rising Sun; oats is
about 80 to 30 cents or say a cent a
pound. If the hard woody hull
which covers the oat kernel is re-
moved there will remain about Is
or Is pounds probably of kernel.
Wheat is all solid meat. There are
go pounds of nutritious food in the
bushel of wheat and fully as valu-
able for food purposes, pound for
pound as the oat kernel. One
bushel Of wheat, taking the above
proportions as correct, is worth,
therefore, as much as four bushels
of oats for feeding. The same
valuable constituents in the oats,
at present prices costs a dollar
twenty cents and upwards. The
question for the farmer to consider
is whether he will continue to sell
the same quantity of flesh produc-
ing matter for AZ cents and feed it
in another grain which he could
sell for 81 30 to 81. 25.
Farmers who have experimental
in feeding say that one quart of
wheat fed in the grain to a horse
will keep the animal in as good
condition as a gallon of oats. And
why should it not? A careful ex-
animation shows that the nutriment
in three pints of wheat is about
equal to six quarts of oats, and that
is large feed for horse above the
medium size when at steady work.
A prominent" farmer in this
neighborhood fed his wheat crop
last year to hogs all but enough for
seed and family use and got 20
cents bushel by converting it into
pork, besides a large quantity of
the highest grade fertilizer. Wheat
is lower in price this year than last
about - cents a buShel and tend
ing dOwnwards.
AS between two grains whose
feeding properties are the same, the
one selling for Il cents and theother
for S1.20-25 which will the thrifty
farmer sell and which feed?

Rushing Into Print.

The "Banner Counciln of Ameri-

into print and published procla-
nation under a series of resolves
which is highly amusing. The fol-
lowing is a specimen paragraph
from this proclamation to President
and nation.
"Resolved, We warn all Ameri-
can citizens who have constitution
al rights and liberty, to have no
atfiiction with such institutions as
Trades Unions, knights of Labor,
Sovereigns of Industry, or the like,
that desires to control either capital
or labor, as it is doing a gross in
justice to both classes.

sentiment of our noble order, whose

For a display of supercilious as
surance this thing takes the cake.

suggest that the humble members
who occupied back seats and suck
ed their thumbs while this little
political trickster game was being
played, read Henry Georges speech

Burglars in Elkton.

The warehouse of Charles B,
Ford, dealer in grain and hay, al
Elkton, was entered by burglars
Monday night and the safe broken
open. The safe door was blown
off by means of dynamite inserted
in the lock. There was no money
in the safe, but notes to the amount
of $500 were taken, deeds, insur-
ance papers and other valuable
documents. One of the notes, fol
$3.50 was negotiable, the others be-
ing worthless to the thieves. Tues

were found in the wheatfield OF

wishes on the question of licensing the
sale of Intoxicating liquors i'll their midst,
and
WHEREAS, There is in the ensuing
election no other question SO nearly
affecting the interests of every home, and
no county officers to be elected, we deem
it most suspicious time to press the
important issue. that every citizen may
clearly define his position, and every
voter his wishes at the only place by law
provided for recording them
! ReS0i5ed, First, that we regard it as the
duty of every individual entrusted with a
| franchise TO use it at this time for the
interest of God, home and humanity, and
that nothing but physical inability to do
so, should prevent any man from voting
at this election.
ReSolaea, Second, that we regard it as
the duty as well as the privilege of the
women Of this county, to assist by their
presence, their labors and their prayers in
the work now before us of organizing all
the voters of the county into such all
union as to best secure the presence of
every voter on election day at the ballot
box, regardless of what his supposed
political opinions may be.
Resol0ed, Third, that meeting be
called of all those in sympathy with the
objects above set forth to fully perfect
such all organization, at such time and
place as the president and executive
committee of the Cecil County w. c. T.
U. may fix.
ReSol0ea, Fourth, that we ask the CO.
operation of every church organization,
every Sunday School, every Temperance
society, and every benevolent and bene-
fetal society that have purpose to up1ift
their fellow men, by sending regularly
accredited representatives to this meet
ing, when all can unite i'll this common
cause of honor, protection and defence
against common enemy.

| Since the Inauguration Of President
| Cleveland i'll March, 1895, there have been
eleven months devoted to sessions of
Congress with both branches absolutely
i'll control of the Democratic party, and
what has been accomplished Absolutely
nothing for the benefit of the people or i'll
compliance with the pledges and prom
ises made previous to the election Of 1892.
During this time bankers panic has
ragged with unequaled fury Bankruptcy
and ruin has been the rule, while all
property values have been nearly elm
mated. Silver as a money metal has
been absolutely destroyed, and that, too,
against the wishes of three-fourths of the
people of the country. Interest bearing
bonds have been issued by the Secretary
of the Treasury i'll collision with the
money owners of the East, and i'll strict
violation of all law. An attempt has been
made by the President to place upon the
supreme bench men whose character
would disgrace an official position. Riots
and labor troubles which at any time may
terminate i'll revolution, now fill the land,
and this condition has been made the
excuse by the President to abrogate the
doctrine of State rights, and establish a
precedent which, if continued, will surely
end in military despotism.
Absolutely helpless so far as present
redress is concerned, the people of this
country stand deceived by past promises,
betrayed by present legislation, and de
fed by all the powers that now control
the Government. Is it any wonder that
plutocracy, drunk with the riot of wealth
that legislation and administrative trick
cry have placed within their grasp, is
fleeing surfeited with its pluEder to
