Club and improvement Association was held

Wiley presiding. A resolution was adopted
of milk, approving the action of the milk pro-
ducers in various parts of the State and ex-
pressing willingness to join in any legitimate
move toward securing just and equitable in
crease in the price Of milk.
1t is evident that unless there is an increase
in the price many will discontinue the dairy
business. as there is no doubt that milk is
now produced at a loss, and winter close at
hand, and when pasturage will soon have been
ended. more feed must be used. thereby in
creasing the cost of producing milk.
The association took favorable action on the
proposition to establish high school in the
upper part of the county, and approves Of the
choice of Sparks Station, NC. K. r., as the
location.

Narrowly Escaped Destruction by Fire.

Narrowly Escaped Destruction by Free
The large mansion house in Aigburth Park,

Mr.. Jacob F. Seidel, farmer on the place. and
the prompt response Of the Towson Chemical
Engine Company and the Towson Volunteer
Fire Company. The fire started under the

The Pole Line Making Progress.-A let
ter from Belair says: The surveyors under
Chief Engineer Roby, who are working on the
new pole line between McCall's Ferry to Balti-
more, have recently transferred their head
quarters from Dublin to Belair. They are
now working on Thomas Run and should
reach Belair within a short time. From Bel
air they will strike the Baltimore turnpike
which is controlled by interests friendly to the
United Railways of Baltimore, with whom the
Mccall Company is under contract to supply
electricity for their streetcar lines. Interests
friendly to the Mccall Company have recently
acquired control of the Lancaster, Pa, electric
lines, and it is within the range of possibility
that an electric line will be established from
Lancaster, through Northern Hartford, by way
of Belair, down the turnpike to connect with
the Baltimore and Belair electric line at Car
ney, Baltimore county, over the tracks of the
United Railways to the City Hall, Baltimore.
Such line would be valuable and open up
rich agricultural section that has long been
sadly in need of a railway to fully develop its
many resources"
