Special Correspondence of The Evening Star
ROCKVILLE, Md, February IS. 1905
The thirty-second annual convention Of
the farmers of Montgomery county was
held in the Lyceum at Sandy Spring yes
terday. The proceedings were of the usual
interesting character and the occasion was
generally voted the most successful of the
kind ever held in the county. The conven-
ton met at 10 o'clock, with President Ed
ward P. Thomas of Ednor in the chair.
Messrs. James Boss, jr., of Spencerville and
John e. Muncaster of Norbeck served as
secretaries.
Following the usual reports of standing
committees, Mr.. Asa M S'tabler of the
Spencerville neighborhoOd read paper on
us it more profitable to devote a farm of
100 acres to crops and fruits, or to grazing
favor of the crops and fruits. and this
view was shared by the several others who
took part in the discussion. Mr.. Roger B.
Farquhar was on the program for paper
this county?" but was unable to be pres
ent, and the paper he prepared was read
by Mr.. Allan FarQuhar. Mr.. Farquhar was
very certain that such an industry is highly
profitable In Montgomery, his opinion being
based upon practical experience.
Mr.. William M. Candy of Colesville. and
several others also spoke on this subject
all agreeing with Mr.. Farquhar.
PROBABLY the most interesting QIScuSSlOn
of the day was that in regard to the pro-
priety of providing for a county treasurer
for Montgomery county. The question
asked was Has the time arrived for a
county treasurer" Among those who par
ticipated in this discussion were Charles
F. Kirk. Henry Benson George Bonifant
Allan Farquhar, William M. Candy and
Others and the one opinion Is that the
county is far behind the times in It's meth
cd of collecting taxes and that the county
treasurer is what the county very badly
needs. There was no dissenting voice in
the large gathering to the propositions.
The question to whether or not dogs
should be taxed was also considered at
length. 1t was pointed out that If a tax
were imposed 1t would reduce the number
of worthless ours, and in that way prove
a protection to game. as we'll as sheep.
turkeys, fowls. etc. Those who took part
in this discussion were John c. Bentley,
Perry Ensey, Charles F. Kirk, Asa M.
Stabler, Mortimer Stabler and others.

or cream at present prices. or both milk
and cream?" was the subject Of another
discussion. The questions of good roads,
forestry methods to perpetuate the supply
of firewood and fencing and the feeding
OF cattle were also considered.
At noon the entire gathering was enter
