coco or nut grass, are now Industrious
| ly planting Bermuda pastures and
meadows" We know many Southern
farmers who are now carrying good
head of stock on their farms who,
without Bermuda pastures, could not
Craze more than a very few head.
These men are improving their lands
fast, and saving the cost of expensive
fertilizers. As to its value as a fat
making grass, we had the following
! statement made to us few days ago:
"a gentleman from Illinois, owning
farms i'm that state, a few years ago
bought a farm in Southside Virginia,
upon which was a large field we'll set
in Bermuda sod. To compare the
value of this field for cattle feeding
with similar area of land i'm Illinois |
well set i'm a sod of the grasses grow
ing there, he put upon each field the
same number of cattle of the same |
| average weight and grazed them the |
same length of time. The cattle fed |
on the Bermuda sod in Virginia gained |
much faster and made much heavier |
weights than those grazed in Illinois
in the same time, and he is now an
enthusiastic advocate of Bermuda
grass.
Upon the question of the possibility
of getting rid of Bermuda except at
great cost when once established, we
have to say that whilst it is no doubt
tenacious of life-and this is one of |
it's greatest recommendations in the
SOuth-yet, we know it can be killed
out i'm two years without serious cost
or loss if only the proper course is
taken. 1t cannot stand shading. 1t
loves the sun, and must have its glori-
Gus rays or it will die. We know a
case where a farmer wished to put
a field heavily set in Bermuda sod un-
der arabic cultivation for few years.
He plOwed and worked it and planted
corn for a forage crop, putting the
rows only just wide enough apart
to permit of cultivation and dropping
C0e cOrn nOC more C0an % Inches
in the rows. With the aid of two or
three workings, the corn got good
start and grew 10 or 12- feet tail and
completely shaded the land. At the
end of the summer there was very
little Bermuda grass to be found. The
next year, the field was put in cow
peas, which made a heavy crop, and no
Bermuda grass has since been found
there
We would remark that our friend
misapprehends the meaning of the
table of analyses given by Prof. SOule
in the addition that we published to
the article. The first four lines of
figures were analyses of hay from
Kentucky and Bermuda grass. The
first two lines give the contents of the
grasses merely dried as hay is usually {
dried for storing. The next two lines ,
give the contents when this hay is ,
perfectly freed from all water by arti-
fetal drying. The next four lines of ,
figures give the contents of the grass !
es i'm the green state, as ascertained !
when air dry and artificially dried. 6

Remarkable Discovery That Cuts Down the

The midland journal. (Rising Sun, Md.) 1885-1947, 1906-04-27

People were appalled, at the news of
the terrible catastrophe which over
whelmed San Francisco last week, aud
which is the greatest calamity in the
history of the country. The entire world
has been stirred by the frightful holo-
caust which resulted in such terrible loss
of life and property, rendering thousands
homeless and destitute, and leaving un-
told misery and want in its wake.
Other cities and towns on the Pacific
slope in the area of the earthquake suffer
ed great loss, but fortunately they escaped
devastation by fire, as was the case in San
Francisco, where three fourths of the city
fell prey to it, the palatial residences of
the rich, the novels of the poor, the i'm
mense sky-scraper and the modest little
shop alike being reduced TO smouldering
heaps of debris by the devastating flames
which followed the earthquake.
The universal sympathy felt for the
restitution and misery of the people of
the stricken city is attested by the spon-
taneity with which contributions of tons
upon tons of provisions and supplies of
every description have poured in upon
them in response to their cries of distress,
and the hundreds of thousands of dollars
which have been placed in the hands of
the relief committees through the agen-
cies of private subscription and appro-
priations by Congress almost as soon as
the news of the disaster was made known
The unfailing pluck and determination
of those who have suffered such over
whelming adversely, is demonstrated in
the fact that already plans are being laid
and steps taken for the immediate re-
building of the city which is to rise from
the smouldering ruins on a much grander
scale than that just destroyed.

kins connection with them had not been
entirely clean. Scarcely had Senator
Tillman resumed his seat when Mr.. Hop
kins livid with rage arose and poured
forth flood of denunciation upon the
Senator from South Carolina. He began
by calling him an ignoramus III business
matters and seeker after notoriety i'll
the newspapers and a person who played
constantly to the galleries. He then
turned his attention to political matters in
the South and declared that before Till
man picked flaws in the administration of
affairs in Illinois he would better clean
his own state of the crime of suppressing
the negro vote. Mr.. Tillman responded
in like manner and for little while ex-
element on the floor and in the galleries
was at fever heat. Just when the col
loquy was getting warmest Senator Gal
linger requested that the Vice President
enforce the rule against this kind of
debate The rules we're read and the
combatants were compelled to resume
their seats, which they did reluctantly,
glaring at each other most melo-
dramically.

The promotion Of Major General Cor
bin TO Lieutenant General of the United
States Army was confirmed by the Senate
last week, which thus enabled him to
retire with more prestige and higher pay
than would have otherwise been possible.
General Corbin is one of the most un-
popular men in the army but by push
and pull he has attained to the highest
rank that the army affords. His nomi-
nation to this rank has been bitterly
fought in the Department where he is
disliked and by as large a part of the
army as could oppose him without being
discovered in it. On the other hand
though he has many friends on the out
side and his wife who was rich woman
before her marriage has been very active
in working for his promotion and pulled
wires, by means of her money and social
position, in all directions The manner
in which appointments and promotions of
this kind are effected is one of the most
interesting features OF official life and
books could be written giving explana-

Octoraro Still Ours.

A very interesting and important opin-
ion, to the residents of northern Cecil
county, was handed down by Judge
Londis, of the Federal Supreme Court, of
Lancaster, at the conclusion of the March
term. It is in the case of the Octoraro
Water Company askingto have removed
the injunction placed on it by Vim. I.
West & Co. and the Cecil Water Co. for
diverting the waters of the Octoraro
creek. The Lancaster New Era, in
speaking of the decision editorially says:
'sThis decision, if not overruled, will
affect very materially the great pumping
stations erected on our Octoraro in the
southern end of the county and subject
them to heavy damages"
The bill states that the Octoraro Water
Company, in the exercise of its corporate
franchises, has located and caused to be
constructed dam and put in operation
intakes and pumping stations on the DC:
toraro creek, in both Lancaster and
Chester counties, Pa. These have been
SO constructed for the purpose of appro-
priating and diverting the waters of the
said creek for the corporate uses OF the
said company; Vim. 7. West & Co. and
the Cecil Paper Co. are manufacturers
stream, in Cecil county, Nd, and the use
of the waters is appurtenant to their land.
In June, 1905, the said company present
ed its petition to the court, setting forth
that it had endeavored to agree with Vim
T.. West & Co. and the Cecil Paper Co
upon the proper compensation to be paid
to them for the damage done or likely to
be done, in consequence of the the taking
of the said waters, but that it failed in the
premises.
1t is claimed by VIM. T. West & Co.
and the Cecil Paper Co. that the state of
Pennsylvania can confer no right of emf
enent domain upon the Octoraro Water
Co. by virtue of which the water company
can obtain viewers to assess damages to
lands located in the state of Maryland.
This claim is upheld by the decision OF
the court.
Ifthis decision is not reversed the ripar-
ian rights of the Cecil countians will be
safeguarded from the outside, but they
had better have more wideawake repre-
sentatives to watch their interests from
the inside than those sent to Annapolis
last winter. AS was proven Octoraro
water snakes can be Matched in Glen
Cove as we'll as Cecil county, and if in
Glen Cove why not out IN Mountain
Lake, in western Garrett county, or any
other remote portion of the state.

Senator Tillman, who is a small vol

broke out again last week, when he was
attacked by Senator Hopkins of Illinois.
AS in former years he did not attempt to

OYSTER BAY, N. Y, August 23.-Briga-
dier General J. Franklin Bell, chief Of staff
Of the army, and Clifford Pinchot chief Of
the forestry bureau of the Agricultural De-
partment, were in consultation with Presi-
dent Roosevelt at Sycamore Hilltoday.
Gen. Bell said he came at the suggestion
Of Gen. Ainsworth, military secretary, in
order that the War Department might
know exactly the Presidents ideas and de-
sires regarding the difficulty at Browns
vile, Texas, between United States colored
troops and the residents of that place Gen.
Bell said the colored troops at Brownsville
had been removed to Fort Reno and re-
placed by a company of white soldiers
This action had been taken in compliance
with telegraphic request from the state
officials. 1t was desirable. he said, to dis
cuss the whole situation with the President
before any further action was taken
Mr.. Pinchot said he came to Oyster Bay
to discuss the forestry situation with the
President. Both expect to return to WASH
hgton today.
Post Temporarily Abandoned.
OYSTER BAY, August 23.-On leaving
Sycamore Hill Gen. Bell said that the
army post at Brownsville, Tex, would be
temporarily abandoned as soon as orders
to that effect, issued yesterday by the
War Department; could be carried out The
company Of white troops now stationed
there will remain only so long as is neces-
sary to guard government property. This
property will be removed in the abandon
ment of the post.
Mr.. Pinehot said that the President
would address a letter to the irrigation
congress to be held shortly at Boise City,
Idaho. This letter, which Mr.. Pinchot will
take to the congress. will be a hearty in
arid lands of the west. The President sign
ed the original reclamation act and has al
ways been an enthusiastic supporter of the
proposition.

of Gen. Bells staff, accompanied the gen.
