Tax on Mortgages.

Delegate Robert W. Wells of this coun-
ty, will introduce bill to repeal the tax
on mortgages.
Mr.. Wells makes the following points
in favor of his bill, which has been before
former Legislatures, but failed of passage :
l. The tax on mortgages clouds the
title of property.
3 The law is practically unenforceable.
B. 1t makes necessary all sorts of atfi-
davits.
f. Thousands of rich and poor alike
are anxious to see the mortgage tax re-
pealed.
5. Drives capital away form the State.
g. Not 10 per cent of the tax is collect
ible, and the law is failure as a revenue
raiser.
:. 1t increases the rate of interest on
borrowed money.
g. In many counties no serious attempt
to collect the tax is made, as mortgages
are treated much as notes and bonds in
the course of trade and the County
Treasurer is unable to fix upon the real
owner of the mortgage.
g. 1t complexities the conveyance OF
property, and is an unwise piece of legis-i
lation.
Delegate Biggs, of Washington county,
several days ago introduced bill design
ed to amend and correct some Of the
complications arising from affidavits in
the mortgage instrument.

Farmers Urge Bill.

The executive committee of the Farm
ers' League of Clubs met at 524 North
Calvert street Baltimore, Tuesday and APP
pointed legislative committee of nine
members to urge the passage of the bill
presented to the Legislature by Senator
Wilson, of this county, approprating
money for the extension of the work and
to erect additional buildings at the Mary
land Experiment Station and College, and
to further extend the work of Institutes
and horticultural investigations.
These institutions are now hampered
greatly for the want of room, and the l25
students, it was stated, could be easily
doubled and taught by the same faculty if
more room were provided. The bill now
before the Legislature makes 70 appropri-
alton for increase of professors or Of sal
ary. ut is only to give increased facli-
ties for more room and to aid in extra in
vestigations in horticulture, dairying and
beef feeding, and to provide free scholar
ships from each county and Baltimore
city
For several years rast these institutions
have been unable to fully avail themselves
of the moneys appropriated by the United
States Government-$23,4 AIS under the
two Morril acts and $4,000 under the
Hatch act To remedy this and give the
very best possible aid to the farmers Of
Maryland this bill has been prepared by
committee of nine farmers, representing
every section of the State and every class
of agriculture This movement was start
ed at a meeting last June of over $50
farmers at the college and has since been
endorsed by almost every club and grange
in the State, by the Farmers League of
Clubs, and by the State Grange.
During the past two years the State has
appropriated for carrying on all of the
work in agriculture, horticulture, farm
ers' institutes, experiment station work
and the allied branches at this institution
only sci 900 annually. 1t is proposed to
increase this amount to $4,000 annually.
The league is composed of 90 clubs, with
a membership of $50 practical farmers.
The executive committee also took up
the matter of reform ing the Milk lnspec-
ton law of Baltimore city in onder to bet
ter protect the consumer and producer
| One farmer said several of his nci ghbors
whose milk had been condemned by the
| inspectors added a little water to their
next shipment and the milk now passes

Game Protectors.

At the Eutaw House, Baltimore, Tues
day night the Game and Fish P"otectlon
Association met in annual session. Though
the meeting was not SO largely attended
as in some former years, it made up for
that in enthusiasm State Game Warden
John A. Avrrtt sent a telegram, saying
he could not be present.
Chief Deputy Warden Robert II. Gill
bert said that the work accomplished by
the association in the last year was fully
so per cent greater than in any previous
- months. Secretary O. NJ. Dennis and
Treasurer Henry Brauns each made re-
port showing the association to be strong
numerically and in solvent condition.
Reports from those who are looking
after the passage of the Game and fish
bills before the Legislature were favora-
BILE and the law committee looked to see
the bills passed without material changes.
The associations bills are for the protec-
ton of fish and were drawn after months
of labor and research by the executive
committee.
1t was stated that a bill t" make one
general game law for. the entire State
would be introduced. 1t was prepared by
others than members of the association.
but the association favors uniformity of
game and fish laws.

F.hrna.y promises to come in during
TIE existence of reactionary storm con-
dition. From Saturday the 1st, to about
Monday the 3rd, fluctuating barometrIc
readings will pass over the country, at
tended in many parts by Cloudiness, rain
and SNOW Sharp change to colder may
be looked for behind these reactionary
storms, spreading from west to east, caus-
ing a marked fall of temperature even
into the south From about the 9th to
the 10th falls a regular and decided storm
period. From about the 18th to the 10th
may be expected an unreasonable rise OF
temperature, the barometer will fall to
low and threatening indications, and
storms of marked energy will organize IN
western extremes and take up their march
eastward across the country. During
period of three days, Including the Sth
and 10th, no one need be surprised to see
a warm wave for the season, attended by
lightning and thunder, with heavy rains
to the southwark, turning to snow and
billiards. along the north side of the
Country. Another high barometer, north
westerly gales and cold wave will follow
closely behind these storms, and spread
progressively eastward over the country
from about the 10th to the 18th.
About the 18th to 18th, it will react to
renewed storm conditions-that is, Il c
barometer will fall. winds will shift to
easterIy and southerly. the temperature
will rise, cloudiness will increase, and rain
and snow squalls will break out in various
parts moving eastward
The regular storm period reaching from
the 10th to the Goth will show strongly
the influence of the growing Ecrnal
equinox High temperatures, low ba, O.
meter and rain, thunder and lightning
will he the order during the first stages
of the disturbances: but these will quick
" give place to driving snow to the west
and north, with change to high barome-
ter, northwest gales and very much col
der. The Moon is full on the 22nd and
on the celestial equator on the 23rd. This
is also at a reactionary storm period.
Storms will be general over the interior
about this time Snow and billiards will
follow quickly on the heels of the rain
and thunder, and a very cold wave for
the season will push close after the ives
tern sides of storms.
We believe that the months of April,
Nav and June will be propitious above
the average for all agricultural and out of
door avocations.
