ArbOr Day.

Governor Lowndes in his proclamation
designating April 18th Arbor Day says:
Il do recommend that the day be devoted
by the people of this State to the plant
ing of Forest Trees, and especially re-
commend to parents AID teachers in the
public schools that they encourage their
children, or those under their influence,
to plant or transplant at least one Forest
Shade Tree on that day by the side of a
public read or about their schoolhouse.'
1T is hoped by the observance OF this
clston to counteract the evil effect re-
sulting from the rapid destruction of for
ests in our State, and to maintain due
proportion of Forest Land, which is es-
sential to the comfort, health and con
venielce of every country.

Considerable interest is being taken
in Laurel in the future Of the Columbia

ington to Main street, in Laurel within
Il few feet of the PatuXent river, the
divi ling line between Howard and this
coulty, and track has been laid as far as
Lakeland, on the Baltimore and Ohio

the part of pre- s2ective bidders Of COM
netting the road to Laurel from Washing
ton and not attempting to make the six
teen mile connection between Leicester
and Laurel, across Howard county. The
sale of the read under mort gage takes

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local application as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that
is by constitutional remedies. Deafness
is caused by an inhamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube
When this tube is intlamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation can
be taken cut and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be destroy
ed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but
an infamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars fol
any case of Deafness Caused by catarrh
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrl
Cure. Send for circulars; fee.

Condition of Wheat.

The general tenor of the reports indi
cate that larger acreage than usual had
l cen sown last fall in most sections and
that the fields we're in general in fine
condition, with fair prospects of a good
yield
There was very little snow on the
ground to afford protection, excepting in
Garrett county, but the winter was mild
and the damage by frost slight
In the northern central and the eastern
sections some damage was done by success
sive frceZinss and thawingS, by heavy
rainfall, and by the Hessian fly; but the
total amount Of injury was small.
On the whole the condition of winter
heat in Maryland is very satisfactory
