Keeping Wheat Without Loss.

An old farmer recently told of an experiment
which disproves the common idea of a loss in
wheat by shrinkage between harvest time and
winter, which leads many to sell wheat early if
prices are fairly good. A flour barrel was filed
with wheat threshed in July, dry and in good
condition. 1t weighed 210 pounds barrel ID
pounds) and was kept in dry place. gimlet
holes being bored in the barrel to prevent heat
ing Occasionally barrel and contents were
weighed, and it was found that it did not vary
except in damp seasons, when it increased three
fourths of a pound. At the end of twelve
months the weight was just the same to the
ounce as it was one year before, or the day on
which the wheat was stored away.

Martin Saves the Horse.-A lady sent to
the Baltimore San letter in which she round
ly scores the stewards OF the Maryland Steeple-
chase Association for permitting the horse
Three Bars to start in a hurdle race at Pim-
leo Thursday. She draws a graphic picture
of lame horse being forced to go race in
which it breaks an ankle and is led off to be
killed.
1t was not so bad as the writer pictured it
and the horse is not dead. ''Three Bars is a
6-year-old son of imported Wagner-Valtic and
was owned by Mr.. William NJ. Kerr of
Trainor Pa. Like many horse that has
gone in and won race, this one was bit sore
when he started. On the second Jump he
broke tendon in the left fore ankle and should
have been pulled up by his jockey, Barry, who
made him go the route. The gameness of the
animal in trying to win aroused the admira-
ton and sympathy of the spectators.
When 'Three Bars was led off the course
and policeman was called upon to shoot him
a big fellow pushed his way through the crowd
and said he could save the horse, and Mr..
Kerr gave the cripple to the big man, who is
Martin O. Brien, one of the best known horse
trainers in the State.
On Sunday last "Three Bars was in COM
Portable box stall at Pimlico. His injured
ankle was in splints and the horse was not in
pain. He stood up and ate with relish
O'Brien says the horse will be as good as new
in short while, and so firmly does his ex-
cured frst option to purchase him him ITO Briens
predictions prove correct. The animal may
prove a valuable sire even if he does not race
again.

Objections to Sunday Field Games
Some of the residents of those sections OF Bal
timore county adjacent to the several goli
courses and tennis courts have invoked the
law to restrain the players from playing these
games on Sunday. From the tenor OF some
of the complaints it would seem that, while
golf in itself is irritating enough, Sunday golf
is simply unbearable. States Attorney era
son has been applied to for an opinion on the
status of golf and tennis from Sabbatarlan
standpoint. Mr.. Grason says that he could
find nothing in the laws which could be con-
structed as prohibiting the playing of either
of these pleasant games on the Sabbath.

Treatment of Fall Pear Blight.--State
Pathologist Townsend, of the Maryland Agrl'
cultural College, in speaking of the fall treat
ment of pear blight urges that he blight be
cut out and burned in all cases as soon as pos
sible after it makes its appearance. In or
charos where the blight was carefully and per-
sistently removed and destroyed most OF the
trees were saved. The disease producing or
ganisms, although inactive during the fall and
winter, are not dead and are capable OF living
over the winter. In the spring these organisms
again become active and it is from the so call
ed hold-over cases that the blight is spread.
