Farmers are very much encouraged
about the milk business since the whole
sale price has been raised from Is and II
cents to 10 and 20 cents until March l,
when another schedule will be agreed

extremely simple, yet this very fact may
make some of us careless and we will dis

Superintendent Wright has been con-
Quoting teachers institute In the COL
cred church, Bel Air, for the benefit of the
colored teachers, during the past two
days. He has been assisted by Misses
