BONE FOOD

Soft and crooked bones mean
bad feeding. Call the disease
ricketts, if you want to. The
growing child must eat the
right food for growth. Bones
must have bone food, blood
must have blood food and SO
on through the list.
SCOTS Emulsion is the right
treatment for soft bones in
children. Littledoses every day
give the stiffness and shape
that healthy bones should have.
Bow legs become straighter,
loose joints grow stronger and
frmness comes to the soft
heads.
Wrong food caused the
trouble. Rightfood will cure it.
In thousands of cases SCOTS
Emulsion has proven to be the
right food for soft bones in
childhood.

dered this increase necessary, but we
all do know that such rate is espe-
cially burdensome to our rural COM
munity who obtain their living from
the soil.
One thing we are glad to see is that
the Commissioners have apparently
levied a sufficiently large amount to
pay all matters up to date, so that
the county can continue on a cash
basis. The two principal items are
those that more directly affect the
public at large. We allude to the
public schools and public roads. As
has been frequently reiterated, thisis
about the only benefit that the aver
age citizen gets out Of the tax levy.
The amount allowed the public
schools is $40, 900, as against $46,-
500 last year. This smaller amount
does not mean that the school board
will have any less income, as it will
get about this difference from the
new school law that has just gone
into effect For the improvement of
the public roads the sum of $4,000
is allowed as against $4,000 last
year. In this sum is included the
$4,000 for the Frogtown improve
ment, which is now being made. The
sum of $4,000 is allowed for the
Havre de Grace road, which would
indicate that the Commissioners
expect to make this Improvement.
In the levy of 1908, $14,06S.22
was appropriated for the Church
Vile road. An unlookedfor item is
that of bridges, which on account OF
recent floods requires $4,000. No
special appropriation was made for
this last year.
The basis of the county, as made
up by Clerk Bateman, amounts to
$14,264,11O. This at 81, the rate
determined upon, will yield $685.
900. The apparent discrepancy is
made up by exemptions from road
tax allowed in incorporated towns.
Although the tax rate is higher than
last year, the net amount raised is
81, 2S5.67 less. The basis last year
was $1+, 94S,73S. This shows loss
of $685. 2S.
When we see the big decreasein the
taxable basis, and remember that
the county revenue has been further
curtailed by the repeal of the mort
gage tax, it is apparent why the in
crease in the tax rate is necessary.
No honest criticism can be laid
against the Board of County Com,
missioners, and the intelligent public
will brand any peanut politicians
who attempt to make capital out o.
our present unfortunate financial sit
uation. The County Commissioners
have made every effort to try to KEEP
the tax rate down. Consistent with
good public policy, every expense
that was possible has been curtailed
but they had to contend with condi
tions that could be met in no Other
manner.
We give below the items that go tc
make the levy:

RARFORD'S CLAIM TO THE CON
GRESSIONAL NOMINATION.

Democratic primaries will be held
in the different districts Of Hartford
county on Saturday, May 81, to Sc
lect ten delegates from each district
to meet in convention on Tuesday,
May 81. This convention will nomi-
nate five delegates to the State Con-
vention, to be held in Baltimore on
May 2G, where four delegates from
the State at large and two delegates
from each congressional district will
be selected to represent Maryland at
the National Convention to be held
in st. Louis on July 6. Another duty
charged upon the convention that
will meet i'll Bel Air on May "a will
be the selection of five delegates to
the Congressional Convention that
meets i'll Iavre de Grace on August
IS.
1t will therefore be seen that the
primaries to be held on Saturday
week are important, as the time is
near at hand when the different
counties will present their candidates
for Congressional nomination. In
Hartford, while there is apparent
apathy on the surface, it should not
be construed as meaning that this
county will not present candidate.
On the contrary, when the proper
time arrives, our people will lay be-
fore the convention the name of one
of our favorite sons and at the same
time present cogent reasons for his
nomination. There will be no divi-
sion Of sentiment and the party will
have an unbroken front when con-
vention day rolls around.
The claims of this county for the
Congressional nomination are many,
and when considered with those from
other portions of the district they
will, to say the least, compare favor
ably. The first and strongest reason
is the fact that this county has year
after year given fattering majorities
for the Democratic ticket, especially
at Congressional elections. Many
times the nomination was not the
individual choice of the voter, but
Or Democrats are composed of the
right kind of material and will al
ways bow to the will of the major
ity. 1t might also be urged that for
three terms the successful Republican
nominee has come from our midst.
The Republicans, who are our fellow
citizens, have gained much substan-
tial satisfaction from this condition
of affairs which to our credit it must
be admitted was not of our own MAX
ing }, and it is no more than natural
as an offset that we should wish to
have the next congressman come from
our own local ranks. Again, it can
be well urged that while this county
has seldom been honored with this
high office, yet on each of such rare
occasions our distinguished sons
have acquitted themselves most cred
itably both to their friends and the
entire constituency.
If the Democrats of the district
will give us the opportunity, it will
be our pleasure to name man who
will possess the necessary prerequi-
sites both of ability and popularity,
and we can hold out substantial as
surance that he will lead the party
to victory.

PROVISIONS OF SCHOOL LAW.

PROVISIONS OF SCHOOL LAW.
Mr.. NJ. Bates Stephens, State
Superintendent Of Education, has
issued a circular calling attention to
the salient points of the new school
law.
Under the new statute the chief
executive of the school board is now
designated as Secretary, Treasurer
and County Superintendent" who is
appointed in the month of May, but
does not enter upon his new duties
until August 1. Trustees must be
appointed at the first meeting Of the
school board in May. The principal
teacher of each school is secretary of
the board of district trustees. This
appointment is made by the boards
OF trustees, while assistants are
named by the county school boards.
The county school boards are given
authority to consolidate schools
when desirable and practicable and
to pay charges of transportation.
The free book fund is $15O,OOO. The
minimum county school tax rate is
now 10 cents. The State school tax
rate is 10 cents instead of 1O12 cents,
as heretofore. Teachers of white
schools where the attendance is fif-
teen or more shall receive a salary of
not less than $500 per year, and the
schools shall remain open nine
months. Where the average is less
than fifteen, the school board shall
determine the amount of salary and
the length of the school year. There
is no separate fund for colored
schools. All matters pertaining to
them are left with the county school
boards. The State school tax is APP
portioned on the basis Of children
between five and twenty, as disclosed
by the census. The pension fund for
teachers is increased to $4,000
annually.

81 MUST STICK TO MY PARTY =

A good man remarked recent
ly that he didn't like the candidate OF
his party, but added, Il shall vote for
him nevertheless, must stick 10 nv
party" This man is probably the
spokesman OF a large number OF voters
This man, in all the ordinary walks OF
life Is regarded al a good citizen, and Is
a successful business man. But he
places party above principle. He is
not true TO himself or TO his country.
On next Tuesday, if he votes, he will
cast ballot for men and measures
which he does not approve, and which
he does not believe will be for the best
interest of his State and country. His
excuse is, "my party says So" The
success OF his party is paramount TO
everything else. The States interest
may be jeopardizsd but Just SO his
party Is successful he will be gratified
and satisfied. Is this the proper view ?
Can man who casts such a ballot do
80 and be called true man? BE he
Democrat or Republican he owes il to
himself 70 cast an honest ballot. No
consideration whatsoever is worthy of
consideration when conscientious con
viction Is at stake BE a true man next
Tuesday and all the time.
