Baltimore County Has Corn Rival.

News comes from Southern Kansas that
a boy climbed a cornstalk to see how the
sky and clouds looked and that now the stalk
is growing faster than the boy can climb down.
The boy is clear out of sight. Three men
have taken the contract for cutting down the
stalk with axes to save the boy horrible death
by starving, but the stalk grows so rapidly that
they can't hit twice in the same place. The
boy is living on green corn alone and has al
ready thrown down over four bushels of cobs.
Even if the corn holds out there is still danger
that the boy will reach height where he will
be frozen to death. There is some talk of at
tempting his rescue with balloon.

Improving School Yards.-The Ellicott
City Times of last week said: "Mr Z. Stanley
Gary, one of the proprietors of the Alberton
Mills and member of the State Board of Ed
ucation, is a strong advocate of identifying
the public school yards and he deserves the
commentator of all school children and their
parents for the position he takes in this matter.
Can anything be more uninviting or less cal
culated to arouse the enthusiasm of our chill
dren to take an interest in the public schools
than the school yards as we now find them
The very thought of the child who leaves
comfortable home, its cheerful furnishings,
with its pretty garden or well kept lawn, dot
ted with bright flowers, must become antag-
onistic as it approaches the cherries grounds
and plain, cheaply furnished building of the
average public school house. We are sure
that many of our school teachers know of
Mr. Gary's views on this subject and we hope
they will follow his lead. The answer: Our
children have not play ground enough now,'
and where they play we cannot have flowers
and shrubs won't do. Show the children
YOU take an interest in these and shortly you
will find they will watch over them and care
for them and take PRIDE not only in the out
side of the school, but the inside also. As soon
as the children begin to show pride in their
school the work of teaching becomes easier
and the improvement of the children in their
studies greater. Why not let your Xmas en-
tertanment be pay one to raise funds for
the improvement of your school yard next
spring."

Proposed Game Preserve.-A movement
is on foot to establish 8, 900 acre game preserve
in the upper end of Baltimore county, where
the lands are particularly well adopted for such
q purpose It is hoped the farmers in that
section will favorably consider the idea and
permit their lands 10 be stocked with birds
and posted against the destructive pot-hunter.
Such a movement has long been needed in
order to replenish and protect the game. The
idea is to employ game warden constantly on
the preserve.

Raised Ancient Corn.


While digging in one of the forts Of the
mound builders, thought to be as old as the
Pyramids, a farmer living near Memphis found
an earthen vessel containing part of an ear
of corn.
He planted a few of the grains this year,
and in spite of their great age. they sprouted
and bore. The yield was sparse, the grains
small and sooty. almost black but very hard
and of shape never before seen in the Missis--
sippi valley Great interest has been aroused
over the strange crop.

Parkton, N. G. R. R.-The great scarcity
of laborers has delayed farm work considerably
in this vicinity, but the weather has been
favorable to the overworked farmers and most
of them are done cutting off corn and sowing
grain.
The problem of farm labor is becoming more
perplexing each year. The majority of the
young men object to long hours and working
mans dress. They want short days of easy
labor and good clothes.
The average yield of wheat in this section
was about 15 bushels per acre, according to the
estimate of the thresherman.
The corn crop is fair, but not as large as was
estimated earlier in the season. There are a
great many large stalks that have no ears on
them.
Political matters are very quiet. Both parties
seem to be dead in the upper end" Probably
they have been ridden to death by the ''bosses."
A stranger coming into this section would not
know there is to be an election this fall, unless
he looked in the county papers, Great is the
boss" He holds the Office and rewards his
followers with promises that he never intends
to fulfill.
Mr.. and Mrs. George A. Galloway, who sold
their property at Rayv last spring and moved
to fredericksburg, Caroline county, have rented
a house in Rayville and moved back again.
Mrs. Laura Perry and Mrs. Elizabeth j.
Holden have taken rooms for the winter in
Mr.. J. W. Ayres' apartment house at Parkton.
Rayville Lodge, K. of p, will hold an oyster
supper and gramophone entertainment on
Saturday night 14th instant, in Rayville Hall.
No work has been done yet on the proposed
railroad from Partition to Hoffmanville. 1t
will probably be necessary to get charter
before they begin to do anything more labori-
Gus than talking about it.
The Postoffice Department scares the rural
reuters once in a while by threatening to make
them get mail-boxes approved by the depart
ment" The department has approved" 181
different makes and styles and if the different
patrons each get different style the rural
carriers will have to carry bag full of keys to
unlock them. OBSERVER.
