THE CRANBERRY IN DANGER

We have become hardened to the
frequent distinctions of the peach
crop, which comes along at irregular
intervals in the early months of the
year, and which do not seem to inter
fere much with the supply of fruit
later, but it is surprising to learn that
the cranberry is trying to get into the
peach class. We have thoughtlessly
regarded the cranberry as a hardy
fruit, able to resist anything in the
destruction line that might chance
along. This is mistake. Itappears
that disease known as the scald is
after the cranberry, and is spreading
SO rapidly as to threaten the cram
berry industry of New Jersey, New
York and New England with exter-
mination. So serious is the damage
already wrought by the cranberry
scald that Uncle Sam has taken the
matter in charge. The department
of agriculture is about to make a cram
berry bog OF a half-acre in extent, on
the Arlington farm, near Washing
ton, in order to study the habits of
the scald and make it hot for the dis
ease. Everybody hopes Farmer Will
son will succeed, for what would
Thanksgiving day dinner be with
cranberryless turkey?

1T. Jays Letter in the Cumberland
News Republished Here.
This is the season of the year when
the angler goeth forth to angle. In
the evening scores of people may be
seen sitting on the bank of the Little
1ough pulling at their corn cob pipes
and patiently waiting for a nibble,
but by far the greater number simply
wait for the nibble which never nib
bles. The greater part of their en-
joyment is the pipe which is much
better on the river bank than it is in
an arm chair at home. Brook trout
have not begun to bite yet. a few
more warm days, however, will make
fine sport.
At the beginning of spring every
year there is more or less talk about
building an electric road between
Oakland and Mountain Lake Park.
| have no doubt that such a road
would pay handsomely. With an
eletcric plant at either end of the line
1t ought not to require very heavy
outlay of money. A great deal of
money is being invested in enterprises
which are not likely to make returns
such as could be reasonably expected
from a road between these two thriv-
ing towns.
1t is said that large sum of money
will be expended in erecting new
houses in Oakland this season. Mrs.
l.. 7. Waters is putting up large
house on the corner of Third and Oak
streets. Dixon & Kelso are at work
on an immense building on Liberty
street, which they will use for storage
purposes. The First National Bank
has begun preparations for large
banking house at the corner OF Second
and Alder streets. | am glad to note
these evidences of prosperity and i'm
provement, but | would be equally as
much pleased if could say there is a
prospect of haYing large number of
the old rickety, tumble down build
ings about the town repaired or re-
placed with new ones. 1t astonishes
one to note how many of these there
are scattered over the town. Many
of them are unfit for occupancy and
therefore bring no revenue to the
owners, but all the same they give
the town very uninviting appear
ance. If the people of Oakland wish
to bring summer visitors here they
must make their town attractive.
Green grass, pure air and blue sky
are all very well in way, but more
than these will be required of Oak
land if it is to hold it's place as a sum
mer resort.

Took Her Own Life

Brooding over her domestic troubles
until her mind became unsettled, Mrs,
Ida Mcmillan, the young wife of Chas.
X. Mcmillan, justice of the peace and
prominent politician of Addison town
ship, Somerset county, Pa, made a
desperate attempt at suicide, at Lis.
tonburg on Saturday, with razor
She made three deep gashes in he1
throat severing the windpipe and
slashed her left wrist. She died few
days later as result of her self-in.
fiicted injuries.
Mrs. Mcmillan was sister of Mrs
George A. Roger, wife of Rev. Roger
formerly of Accident, and also a sis
ter of Mrs. John L. Enghehart, OF
Accident.

Letter to j. p. HeIbig.

Dear Sir: AS a painter you proba-
bly, use lead and oil, and would nat
urally object to Devoe lead and zinc.
Let us have a few words on the sub
iect.
Painters say a good lead and oil job
will last three years, and they say
house ought to be painted once in
three years.
We take them to mean that their
work is good for three years, no more
and no less, or not much more and
not much less.
DO you want your work to last
longer? What do you say to six years
You'd have to have twice as much
work, you know; or you'd be losing
money
Consider the case of your doctor
You call him in. Is it better for him
to get your child out of bed tomorrow
or keep him sick for a month?
You prefer a quick doctor. So does
N'Oi yOliC ClSO III yOuI lO"ls anu COul-
ty, and State. We are all alike; we
all want our doctors quick. A doctor
that gets his patients up quick, is the
doctor that gets the patients-gets
rich too, if he isn't run to death.
It's about the same with a painter
isn't it, Suppose you paint Devoe,
and your competitor objects to Devoe;
your work lasts six years and his work
three. You cost your customers half;
he costs double Who'll get the busi-
ness: and who'll go to Texas?
Devoe lasts six years-not exactly
we know of its lasting seventeen-and
it never wears out in less than three,
so far as we know. Ona windy, sandy
seaside house, it lasts three years.
Lead and oil lasts one year there.
Devoe lasts two or three times as
long as lead and oil; and its going to
paint your town. Do you want to be
in it?
Yours truly,
> F. w. DEvOE & Co.

BLOOMINGTON.

notwithstanding the great decline
in religious feeling since Easter, fish
and oysters remain high.
Rev. Mr.. Cecil started for Baltimore
Tuesday morning to attend the an
nual meeting of the Conference of
the M. E. church. During his pasto-
rate Mr.. Cecil has had a number of
accessions to the church, improved
the church property, especially the
parsonage, and has built up in every
respect the society of which he is the
head. He goes away with the best
wishes of the entire membership, all
OF whom are anxious to see him re-
turned to Bloomington circuit where
he has done so much good.
The Milky Way is in the heavens.
The stormy way, since the.freshet,
can truthfully be said to be located
in Garrett county.
A dance hall, can-can, ragtime mu-
sic, pop, ice cream, but no beer, are
the luscious things in store for our
people this summer. Mr.. Martin is
the originator of the scheme. The
hall will be erected on the main street
of the town and it is said will soon be
in operation unless our citizens, a
majority of whom believe in eight
hours of refreshing sleep seven nights
in the week, rise in their might and
put their feet on Mr.. Martin SO hard
that he will forget he is living.
Miss Pleasant Howard, daughter of
George Howard, of this place, opened
pay school last Monday. Miss How
ard is graduate of Prof. Bruce's
Academy. Westernport, and has just
finished a term of teaching at the
Firm Rock school, this county.
The failure of the Haman oyster
bill to become law was one of the
greatest disappointments that ever
befell the people of this end of the
county. When it became known that
the revenue from the leasing of the
oyster lands would go to the improve
ments of our county roads and e1-
tending the school term the interest
was manifest everywhere. No meas
ure, we venture to say, ever came be-
fore our Legislature that was more
eagerly watched. was more earnestly
and truly desired and whose enemies
were more bitterly denounced.
The Miller-Burke Supply Co. are
shipping about four car loads of stone
per week. Three teams are working
every day hauling the stone from the
quarry to the railroad. More men
have been put to work blasting the
rock and everything points to a busy
season in this particular industry.
Mrs. Maggie Collins moved into her
beautiful new home Monday last.
Contracts haye been let out by the
lessees Of the New Creek Co. for the
opening and facing of the 3-foot, A.

pany is under contract to ship coal

our town expects to capture some of
the trade from these new quarters
and are looking to a busy season the
