COMMENT ON POLITICAL CONDI.
TONS IN THE SIXTH DISTRICT.

ZIONS IN THE SIXTH DISTRICT.
The Cumberland Times says: 1.-THE po-
liiical situation in this Congressional Dis.
trict al this time is more favorable 10 the
Democratic party than 1t has been for many
years. The Republicans are involved 10 30
many family troubles, and are 30 hopelessly
divided by factional lines and the ambi.
tons Of rival bosses as TO render It impossl
BILE for them to harmonic upon the present
nominee.
1.-THE Republican ranks In Frederick and
Montgomery counties are not as badly dis
organized as they are here, but they are con-
sIderably out of shape and In neither county
can Col. Pearre poll the full vote Of his party,
II reports are TO be at all relied upon. In
Warrington the harmony In the primaries
was artificial, insIncere and the result of
manipulation.
"In Allegany the situation is just as the
vote In the primary on June Both left 1t,
with the probabilities against any material
change. The faction that failed TO over.
come Pearre in the primary are resolved to
uibpOco VI him ~ Suo POii6l PtOVtuOu buO
Democrats nominate candidate who pos
sesses the power TO unite his own party.
"Where TO find the man for the hour is
now the question that most engages the at.
tention of the leaders Of the Democracy.
Our candidate, In the first place, should
have q record for party regularity without
being the representative of any particular
faction or interest He must be man Of
undoubted qualifications, OF the strlctest in
tegrity and fully in sympathy with the
Democratic view OF the living questions of
the day. Ifit is possible TO discover a can
didate In this county who would closely
unite the masses OF the party and at the
same time attract the disaffected Republican
vote, 1t would be the wlsest course TO come
here for the nominee. But there ought not
to be and there Is not likely to be any con.
tention on that point. Find the man who
will meet the situation In every respect and
1t does not matter whether he resides In
Garrett, Frederick, Washington, Montgom-
cry or Allegany county, we can elect him
In November next"

GOOD PAINT As AN ASSET.
Farm Buildings Should Be Kept We'll
Protected to Prevent Loss

Among all the routine expenses o1
the property owner there is none that
yields more satisfactory returns than
good paint. n this respect 1t Is like
fire insurance. but with difference
Fire is accidental and when an in
sured building burns. the insurance
company pays a good proportion Of
the cost of rebuilding. But when .
building suffers for the lack OF paint
-as II must suffer II painting is neg
lected--the owner bears the entire
loss. 1t Is the height OF improvidence.
therefore. to allow property to de-
teriorate for the lack of a coat of good
paint in season; for paint is not only
form of insurance that pays It's own
premiums. but in the selling value II
adds to building, 1t is an actual cash
asset.
The best time to paint is In the
spring or the fall, when the weather
is settled. and paint applied at the
proper time will wear better and pro-
tect better than IL applied at an m-
favorable season.
For ordinary use there is nothing
superior to the better grades OF ready
mixed paints put on the market by
responsible manufacturers. They can
be bought anywhere In convenient
quantities, and of any desired tint or
shade, from local dealers. little in
quiry regarding the local record OF
any such paint offered for sale win
usually enable the consumer to judge
of its quality.
So much for the selection of the
paint; its application should be left to
a good painter, who win get better
results, with less material, from any
form of paint than the unskilied
novice can obtain.

COWPEAs FOR LAWNS.
Grown and Piowed Under They Help
Get Good Stand Of Grass.

The great value of cowpeas as nj
trogen gatherer and natural fertilizer
has long been known. Their impor-
tance in making lawns should be
better understood. Under the most
favorable conditions 1t is quite a seri-
Gus task to get lawn well started.
The usual result of digging the cellar
and grading the lawn is that the good
soil is removed or covered with sub
soil. Cowpeas will mellow such soil
and put fertility into 1t sooner and
more effectively than any other plant.
In the South cowpeas are exten-
sively used for this purpose. In the
villages and small cities one sees
crop of cowpeas in front Of the new
houses everywhere. Usually one
crop is enough to prepare the soil
for lawn grasses. but on very poor
soil two crops may be required. The
soil is thereby put into the right
physical condition, nitrogen and hui
mus are added and weeds are choked
out completely.

ing among them with a narrow bladed
hoe. l used to take an old, well
worn hoe, one practically past its
usefulness, and cut the blade down
at both sides, SO as to leave 1t from
corner to corner only two or two and
one-half inches wide, and the corners
themselves at an acute angle, says a
writer in Farm and Fireside. AS to
the new style hoe, 1t is surely sharp
and l believe of Just the right form
to be serviceable for use as weeder
in onions and other close planted
stuff. In short. with hoes of the right
kind 1t seems to be not much of a
curse to be the man with the hoe"

1t is alleged that the defendants.
through the Standard Oil company
and the other corporations. are en-
gagged in producing. purchasing and
transporting petroleum in the various
producing districts in the United
States. principally situated in New
York. Pennsylvania. West Virginia,
Tennessee. Kentucky, Ohio. Indiana.
Illinois. Kansas, Indian Territory. Ok
lahoma. Louisiana, Texas, Colorado
and California; that they own and con-
troll nearly all of the pipe lines In
said states. and other pipe lines ex-
tending from Kansas to the seaboard: :
also pipe lines in Texas and in Cal
ifornia; that they own large num-
ber, OF tank cars and steamships en-
gagged in transporting oil; and that the
said defendants have. through the in
strumentality of the Standard OIL COM
pany OF New Jersey "a holding corpor-
ation). eliminated competition between
all of the separate corporations and
monopolized the commerce in oil in
the Uaited States.
Control the Pipe Lines.
1t is alleged that the Standard OIL
company has had control of the carry
ing business by pipe lines in and from
all the oil producing regions of the
United States except Texas. Louisiana
and California; that they charged ex-
cessive and unreasonable rates, and
rates which were discriminatory in
favor of the Standard OIL company;
that they have refused to furnish
equal facilities for receiving and de-
livering oil of independent shippers
and refiners: that they have refused
to transport oil belonging to others
than the defendants and their associa-
ted companies. and since the month of
August, 1906. have refused to transport
oil of others except in such large guam
titles as to completely prevent indie
pendent producers and refiners of oil
from using their service. and that they
have forced 16 independent refiners
now doing business in Pennsylvania
and Ohio. and producing their crude
oil through the Standard Oil com
pany's pipe lines. to sell all of their
pany. thereby eliminating their com.
petition. This contract was procured
through threats of the Standard OIL
company to reduce the amount OF
crude oil which 1t would sell to the
independent refiners.
Enjoy Preferential Rates.
1t Is alleged that one of the prin-
cipal instrumentalities through which
the defendants have been enabled to
monODolize tho commerce in netro
leum and Its products throughout the
United States has been a system OF
preferential rates. and rates discrimi

INITIATIVE IN FARMING.
II Is the Ability to Originate New
Methods.

WHAT is called Initiative" is the
ability to begin new thing without
that new thing being suggested by
the example or the words of another.
Few people comparatively have this
power of initiative. The ones that
have 1t are the ones that lead In new
enterprises. The faculty is acquired
by study and by using methods to get
the mind out of the ruts. Initiative is
needed on the farm as well as else
where II is a difficult thing for
farmer to begin any entirely new
process. yet the beginning of a new
process in farming is often revolu-
tionary in its effects. Because men
find it so difficult to originate new
thoughts is the reason why the de-
velopment of the race has been slow
time this quality of the mind has been
greatly stimulated. Perhaps this has
in itself been due to imitation, the
world desiring to initiate the men that
have made great successes by initia-
ting new things. In the domain of
farming, says Farmers Review, we
have had the illustrious example Of
such men as have brought to light the
presence of the tubercle of the legu-
minous plants, and those that have
shown the way 60 raise subtropical
plants in our northern climate. Initia-
tive in farming will yet give US new
processes, of which our minds have
not yet formed a conception.

of the Standard Oil company OF New
Jersey from $4,000, 900 to 100000
600, and made it the holding corpora
tion and placed the control through
stock ownership of all the corpora
tions previously held by the trusts
into the said company, and exchanged
its stock for the stock so acquired.
share for share. issuing therefor e97,-
$50, 900 par value-the exact amount
of the trust certificates previously is
sued by the trustees.
The stock of this company was In
creased by small amount, and is
now s9s.93S,3O0.
Some Standard. Oil Methods.
The petition then shows the meth
DDS employed by the Standard Oil
company to monopolize the oil busi-
ness. These include discriminating
contracts with the railroad companies,
manipulation of rates. local price cut.
ting, bogus independent companies,
etc.
The bill sets up among others a con-
tract between the Standard Oil COM
pany and the Tidewater Pipe company
whereby the Tidewater companies are
limited to liz per cent OF certain
business in Pennsylvania and New
York. and the Standard Oil company
to receive Ss1s per cent of the bust
ness, the Standard Oil company guar.
anteeing the Tidewater company $780,
900 per annum profits, thereby elm
mating all competition between them.
The bill alleges a contract made
with the Pennsylvania railroad com
pany in 1884, which was in existence
until 1906, by which the Standard Oil
company was able to maintain the
public charges for transporting crude
oil from western Pennsylvania at 40
and As cents barrel to Philadelphia
and New York respectively. The Stand.
ard Oil company, through it's own
pipe lines. transported the oil for
eight cents a barrel.

flowers appear upon the sides Of the
branches. They each have four long
slender petals, four short stamens and
a two-celled ovary. The fruit is a
woody capsule, containing a single
hard seed in each of its two cells.
The seed ripens in the fall. following
the Towering and when the capsule
bursts IL is hurled a considerable dis
tance.
The witch-hazel is found In low
woods from Nova Scotia to Manitoba,
extending its range as far south as
florida and Texas. Many supersti-
tions are connected with it. BY its
help hidden springs OF water. con-
cealed treasure and rich ores are said
to have been discovered. Its magic
power is doubtless imaginary, but
from its bark and leaves distilled in
alcohol a fluid extract is made with
remarkable soothing and healing prop
critics.
