School Commissioner Appointed.

We have it from the daily press that
Mr.. Bruce NJ, Wilmer has been appoint
ed School Commissioner for this County,
vice his father, Mr.. Perry Wilmer, who
has resigned on account of illness. OF
course we are not disposed to doubt the
creditable source from which this an
nouncement comes, but Mr.. Wilmer is
playing in good luck in politics when
notwithstanding his tender years he has
only to ask for an important Office and
the honor is handed up to him in the
most gracious style. MIR. Wilmer was a
member of the last Legislature and
made a most ereditable record.
Maryland independent. [volume] (Port Tobacco, Md.) 1874-current, 1906-09-28

The committee created by an Act of
the last Legislature, composed of Gov
ernor Warfield, Comptroller Atkinson,
State Treasurer Vandiyer, Henry Lautz,
j. S. Rawlings and Adrian Posey, to
build new tobacco warehouse or to re-
pair the old ones, or do both, met in
Baltimore City on Wednesday to further
consider what best to do. 1t was de-
cided to build one entire new ware
house on the site now occupied by
Number Three Warehouse and adjacent
warehouses that will store, in addition
to room on the first floor foi offices and
pricing, 1s,400 hogsheads and to cost
about S25, 800, the building to be fire
proof and up to date as to advantages
for storing and hosting tobacco. Messrs.
Baldwin & Pennington were instructed
to draw plans for such building and
submit same at the next meeting of the
Committee, to be held in Baltimore City
on Wednesday, the 10th day of October
next.

Obituary.

In sad but loving remembrance little
Marie A. Simmons, who departed this
life Oct. 5, 1906.
The bud the guardian gave us
A pure and lovely child
Hegave it to our keeping
To cheer our hearts a while.
But just as our bud was opening
In the glory of the day
Down came the heavenly angel
And took our bud away.
The golden gates were opened wide
A gentle voice said come,
Aud an angel from the other side
Welcomed our loved one home.
By her loving parents.

In Memoriam.

In sad but loving remembrance Of
our dear little babies, Margarita and
Cathrine Miles, the two youngest chill
dren of Mr.. and Mrs. Fred Miles, who
fell asleep in Jesus Sept. eth, after
about two weeks illness Of whooping
cough, ages one year and three months,
and one month and seventeen days, re-
spectively. Their remains were inferred
at st. Joseph's Church cemetery, Pom
fret.
Oh, darling Margarita and Cathrine,
how do miss thee by our fireside so
bright and warm, and your sweet and
merry little voices l can hear no more,
but we trust to meet in heaven, where
pains and sorrows are no more.
Though east down, lam not forsaken.
Thou hast given, Blessed Lord Thy
will be done, although | sorely miss
thee. Still l am thinking thou art near
but oh, how l miss the morning and
night kisses from my darlings.
Adj, by their Mother.

forms of ceremonial and official occasions, salut-
ing and signalling, both at home and in foreign
waters.
With an extensive array of flags stored on
board, the ship is prepared to meet and show
the proper naval etiquette to all high rank Off
cias of any nation who should come aboard
whose waters the vessel enters while on
cruise. The foreign complement contains forty
three flags, each % feet long and 13 feet wide
Certain OF these are full of animal shapes. Gu
rious designs and marine landscapes. They are.
therefore difficult to make. and require a sur
prsing length of time to finish.
This flag manufacturing establishment is un-
der the supervision of Thomas Maloy, officially
termed master fagmaker. ard Miss NJ y.
Woods, quarter woman hagmaker. Besides
critically inspecting the finished output, they
also test all the bunting. This comes from Low
ell Mass, in lots of several thousand yards at
a time. One day a sample lot of bunting is
soaked and washed in soap and fresh water
The next day the same process is followed with
salt water. 1t is then exposed to the weather
for ten days, thirty hours of which time must
be in the bright sun. This is for the color and
fading test
The last test is fer tensile strength. For this
test strip two inches wide of the warp is
pulling strain of sixty-five pounds while two
inches of the filling must sustain a forty-five
pounds strain.
The flags are cut out from measurements ar
ranged on chaIkmark lines and metal markers
on the floor. Large stripes and certain designs
can be more conveniently stitched in this way.
Daily this checkered section Of the floor is
covered at all hours with several different
flags with the and women cutters at work
The final sewing Is done on the machines by
the women. Each machine is swiftly run by a
small electric motor. Some OF the women ex-
eel in sewing on the stars others are skilled in
finishing certain other parts Of the flag Nearly
all have been many years in the establishment

One Of the most picturesque and interesting
departments in the Brooklyn navy yard, little
Known to the outside world, is the naval flag
making establishment. To supply the hundreds
Of vessels. ranging from the great battleships
down to the tiny launches, with their prescribed
quota requires the constant manufacture of
many thousands of flags To cut out, and
complete these Uncle Sam maintains an eX-
Eensive plant going at full blast all the year
round and employing nearly half hundred
skilled needlewomen and few men.
The flag room is on the third floor of the Bu-
reau Of Equipment Building. On entering the
large room the visitors first impression is a
blaze of color. Rolls of bright bunting are
heaped up waiting to be cut, while long lines
Of electrically driven sewing machines, with
women operators, are reeing off and putting the
finishing touches to American and foreign en-
signs of many different hues and patterns.
Especially difficult and tedious is the hand
embroidery of the peculiar and intricate designs
and centrepieces used by the flags Of most of
the South American countries and other foreign
nations. Last year this flag factory cost the
government $780, 900; $4,000 of this amount was
for material alone and $4,000 for labor. The
number Of flags turned out was over 10000.
These included three hundred distinctive and

Care of Poison.
EARN and FIreside.)

Idl duu rliSSluS.D
With Paris green and arsenic
in various other forms, such as
arsenate Of lead or arsenate of
soda, etc, lying loose by the
pound on the farmers promises,
it is only a wonder that cases Of
poisoning do not occur oftener
than they do.
A few weeks ago two old peo-
pie Of my owl neighborhoOd lost
their lives, and a young lad just
escaped losing his by this Grimm
al carelessness in properly stor
ing and labelling poisonous sub
stances. The boys brought q
pound of white arsenic home.
This was most likely intended
for "doctorIng" horses, rs the
boys were in the habit of trading
horses. The old lady put the ar
senic into a baking powder box,
and set it away with other boxes
and cans filled with things used
in the kitchen. She forgot all
about the poison, and when bak
ing biscuits used a lot Of arsenic
in place of baking powder with
deadly effect on herself and her
husband. The grandson, forum
ately, was taken with vomiting
and narrowly escaped his life.
But why should people put such
deadly poisons In a can to store
it where it can be mistaken for
baking powder or for s%aIeratus,
especially when it is not plainly
labeled 'arsenlc-pois0n? The
only safe way that the farmer has
to keep this and similar other
poisons like sublimate,
etc, is in cabinet by themselves.
and under lock and key, where
neither animals nor children can
get hold of them.
Sometimes, when through
spraying with a poisonous mix
ture we have some of it left in
the barrel or tank, and we are
often puzzled what to do with it.
l usually try to use it up as clean
as possible, so as to have none of
the stuff standing around. But
if a remnant is left my practice
is to dig a hole in the ground and
pour the liquid in, rinsing the
barrel, etc. thoroughly. The H.
Qnld sOaks away, and when the
hole is covered the poison is out
OF the way, where 1t a do no

SOCIAL LIFE OF THE COMMUNITY.
During the winter the farmer
should find some time for enjoy.
ment. The social features of the
HON" should not be overlooked.
Let the boys and girls have their
little outings; 1T will do them
good. Give them an interest in
the farm and they will love it
and not seek to get away from it
as they so often do now, in order
that they may become independ.
ent and their own masters. The
farmer and his wife can afford to
take a little trip at this season of
the year. 1t may not be far
away, but then mere mingling
with other people and gathering
new ideas is in itself highly pro-
fitable. One can not go far from
home without learning something
Of value, and in fact one Of the
greatest drawbacks to farming at
the present time Is the prejudice
against what is sometimes called

how valuable they may be, be.
cause of a desire to stay too
closely at home and not mingle
sufficiently with people. Do not
neglect the social features of life,
therefore, and remember that
staying at home and working all
the time is not always the most
certain way of making progress
Other peoples ideas are often
valuable, and one of the best in
vestments the farmer can make
for himself and the good of his
wife and family would be to take
a little trip during the season of
the year when there ia the great.

These are a few of the WAYS by
