A practical suggestion comes to me
from the director of the Agricultural ex-
pertinent station at Logan, in reference
to the establishments and maintenance,
BY the state. Of a number of experimental
farms for the purpose of demonstrating
the best use TO which the present unused
or dry lands Of the state may be put

Drosiuctiveness of lands long regarded as
Their agricultural possibilities Of thou
sands of acres are scarcely dreamed OF
by the majority of our people Jus. what
these possibilities are would be. OF course
a matter Of entertainment by trial and
experiment. Whether the sage brush ana
the sunflOWcr can be supplanted by
th-resisting forage plants that will
yield at least enc good crop q year. and
whether IN the ceonoms Of things the dry
supply of the future. leaving the costly
irrigated lands for more profitable crops
these are questions which the establish
ment and operation OF small experimental
farms in different sections would soon
answer.
These farms need not be large. perhaps
covering not more than forty acres each

The Japanese liner Hongkong Maru
Francisco at AIS p. m. and locked at
the Bishop wharf. The vessel is
scheduled to resume her voyage to the
Orient at u noon today.
The Hongkong Maru on entering the
dock probably sustained considerable
damage to her propeller blades, besides
smashing her port gangway. The liner
also partly demolished that on the star
board side of the Wilder steamer
Claudine which is lying in the slip.
A strong current seemed to be flow
ing inward as the liner swung in to-
ward the slip. A bow line was sent out
to a stanchion at the street end of the
wharf and stern line was made fast
at the opposite end. Despite these pre-
cautions the vessel was carried over to
the Claudine's wharf and the bow shot
forward until within a few feet of the
embankment, the bowsprit extending
over the street. AS the steamer went
forward the current SWING her against
the Claudine and instantly there was a
ripping and rending of timber. The
two gangways, folded up against the
sides of the vessels, were jammed and
then smashed and woodwork was scat
tered all over the Claudine's deck.
There were other minor accidents.
+ At this juncture the order was given
to go full speed astern and the pro-
peller churned the water. The cher
engineer at this moment noticed that
the propeller had gone wrong. The
blades had evidently hit an obstruc-
ton, each one in turn seeming to come
in contact with it.
The vessel was finally swung over to
the Bishop wharf and moored securely
An examination will probably be made
today to ascertain what damage, II
any. was done to the propeller blades.
The Hongkong Maru met with some
rough weather for about four days,
buffetting head winds and heavy swells
during that time.
A large number of passengers are
aboard, and with those to be taken on
here the cabins are filed. In fact.
there will be a shifting of passengers to
make room for all.
Mrs. H. M. Cook, G. G. Cook, W. III.

HYATTSVILLE. Nd, June IA. 1908.
The corner stone of the new building on
the Maryland Agricultural College grounds.
which is to cost $4,000, was laid at
o'clock Friday afternoon by the Masonic
order. Mr.. Thomas Shryock grand master
of the Grand Lodge of Maryland. assisted
by the officers of the lodge, was master Of
ceremonies. Mt. Hermon Lodge of this
place attended in a body. All were well
coined by the trustees of the college. Mr..
John Hubner. president of the Maryland
state senate, delivered the address and Mr..
James R. Brewer. deputy grand master Of
the Grand Lodge of Maryland, also made a
few remarks.
The annual meeting of the trustees was
held at 10 a. m. yesterday. All of the OFF,
GERS of the college were reelected, were
the officers of the experiment station with
the exception of Mr. T. N Price, who re-
signed to accept situation in the Agricul-
tural Department at Washington. Mr..
Norris Strawn was appointed assistant
chemist at the experiment station to fill tho
place vacated by Mr.. Price
A mass meeting of the citizens of Prince
Georges county was held in the public hall
in Kent district recently. Mr.. Frank Car
mody presided and offered the following
resolu IONS:
For nearly three years Theodore Roose-
Welt has been at the head of this great ma
ton During that brief period we have
observed with increasing pride in our
Americanism his broad craftsmanship and
patriotic devotion to the cause OF good gov
eminent. He has kept the prosperity that
Mckinley brought us. and thrown around IL
safeguards which means its increase and
continuance. This mass meeting should put
itself on record approving his admins
tration. l therefore submit:
That the republicans of Prince Georges
county earnestly and heartily approve the
administration of President Roosevelt and
recognize in the prosperous condition of the
country the master hand of the President;
that we record ourselves as favoring his
nomination in 1904.
Mr.. Robert w. Wells of this place has
