Whitewash and Clean UP.

In a general way we have called the
attention to the necessity of our farm
ers using liberal supply of whitewash
about their fences and outbuildings.
1t will be gratifying for our friends
along the Emmitsburg road to learn
how they have been spoken of by a
gentleman who recently stopped over
night in Frederick on his way to
Washington, from an extended drive
throughout Pennsylvania. Without
hesitation he stated that the best kept
country homes he had ever seen, big
and little, was on his way from EN-
mitsburg to Frederick. AT Mechanics
town he walked through the main
street and found men and women
busy whitewashing and cleaning up.
The windows were filled with flowers
and altogether he. was impressed
with the cleanliness of our little
sister town in the mountains. Along
the road he spoke of the fine
homes and the prosperous appearance
of the farming community. AT one
time the Glade neighborhoOd was the
boosted section of the county, as every
farmer along the Woodsboro' Pike and
far back in the country paid special at
tention TO keeping his home in
splendid order. Let our farmers be
liberal this year with whitewash about
their homes and outbuildings Along
the electric road the little homes
would look most picturesque among
the trees, If neatly whitewashed.
