the same time last year.
Telephone Company: Our business
has increased fully % per cent.
Aside from material prosperity there
has been great improvement in the NOR
al condition OF the city. 1t was not
thought fair to limit the scope of this
story to mere gain of dollars. There are
other things for Yakima to think of.
A most pleasant review is study of
the magnificent work that has been and
is being done by the churches.
Dunkard Church: The church debt
was paid this spring. The increase in
membership has been 90 per cent and
work in every branch has shown a de-
cded increase.
First Presbyterian Church: The con-
gregational meeting shows very de.
cided growth in every department. The
membership has increased very greatly.
The Christian Church: All depart.
ments have advanced very rapidly this
spring. A new church will be built this
year and work in every line increased.
st. Michael's Episcopal Church.: The
church is growing fast. 1t has received
10 families by transfer l6 members
confirmed and Il large number were bap-
tised this spring. The church has out
grown its present quarters and at the
last meeting of vcstrymen it was de-
cided to build the north and south tram
sept as was originally planned, i'm
provements amounting to $4,000 also
to purchase new pipe organ. The diff
fercnt departments have made a good
growth this spring and much work is
contemplated by the different depart
ments. The rector feels especially
thankful for the help he has had and the
great advance the church has made this
spring
Judge Doust and Sheriff Grant both
have interesting statements to make
in connection with the departments Of
the city's welfare that come under their
observation.
Judge II. =. Doust: The morality OF
the city from every source, including
gambling. drunkenness, and vice in its
various forms is 80 per cent better than
it has been in the last u or II years.
! do not think the number of arrests
have decreased any for the reason that
we are more particular and place under
arrest more people for offenses that here
tofore were not prosecuted.
r. A. Grant: There has been great
drop of in the number of arrest. the
first three months of this year com.
pared with the first three months OF
last year. I think l am safe in saving
the number Of arrests this year are not
quarter of what they were last year.

THE FARMERS, INSTITUTE.
Not a Large Attendance, but Much In
terest Manifested-Those Who Re-
manned Away Missed Much
That Would Have Proven
Rauof1cie1-


The Baltimore County Farmers Institute
met at Towson on Wednesday morning and
was opened by State Director William L.
Amoss, who thanked those present for their
attendance. For county such as this the at
tendance was small, but those who turned out
manifested much interest in the proceedings
and were no doubt well repaid for coming to
Towson.
THE FIRST DAYS PROCEEDINGS.
The first speaker, who discussed corn in all
of its phases, was Mr.. Clayton NJ. Lewelling,
of Beaver City, Neb., who is progressive far
mer of that State who has helped to make the
world marvel at the crops raised on the fertile
prairies of the West.
In his address he gave minute directions in
regard to the culture of corn, and told how the
seed should be selected. He said that the corn
crop was one that Maryland farmers should
give close attention to as this State ranks high
among the corn producing states.
Mr.. Thomas ]. Lea, manager of the farm of
the Sheppard Enoch Pratt Hospital, submit
ted to Mr.. Lewelling sample ears of corn which
he raised last year. This corn was pronounced
by the speaker to be of the finest quality.
In the afternoon the.Same speaker discussed
the raising of alfalfa, which, he said, was the
most profitable and desirable grass product
which could be produced.
Mr.. Jared Van Wagenen, of SchOharie coun-
ty, N. Y, dcussed the selection of the dairy
herd. He said that the dairy herd should be
selected from the four standard breeds-the
Jersey, the Guernsey. the Holstein and the
Ayrshire. Each breed. he said, had been crea
ted by the genius of man TO suit his purposes
The Jersey, which originated on small island,
was small is size and produced small quanti-
ty of milk, but which was rich in butter fat
The Holsten, which originated at the mouth
of the Rhine river, where forage abounded,
was large in size and produces large quantity
of milk.
SECOND DAYS SESSION.
The attendance on Thursday, especially in
the afternoon, was larger than on the first day
and much interest was manifested in the pro-
ceedings. Director Amoss again presided.
Mr.. Lewelling spoke on the subject of hog
raising and also conducted the question box.
Mr.. Wagenen discussed poultry raising most
intelligently and interestingly. He also made
a strong plea for the higher education for far
mer boys.
Upon the whole the institute was a success
and Director Amoss expressed himself as being
well satisfied.

Barrack Burned by an Incendiary.-A
large frame barrack on the Hampton estate a

four O'Clock and entirely consumed, together
with over 60 tons of hay. The estimated loss is
about 81, 900, which was covered by insurance.
Another barrack that stood on the same site
was destroyed few years ago.
A Swede named Gus Brown, who had been
working about the neighborhood for some
time, was at the fire when the Towson chemi-
cal engine company arrived on the scene and
as he told several contradictory stories about
the fire he was arrested on suspicion by Officer
German and committed to Jail by Justice Her
bert. Brown, or Johansen, as he is otherwise
known, was given hearing on Thursday and
was held for the grand jury,
