Pleasant Hill, 9th District.-The drouth
of the past few weeks, which had become quite
serious especially to the late sown grain, has
been broken by the gentle showers of last Sat-
urday and Sunday. Monday was an ideal day,
the sun shining out like June weather.
The early sown grain looks very vigorous and
has heavy growth. Many farmers thinking
it will get too rank, are pasturingt. The corn
crop, which many of the farmers have already
housed, is the best we have had for many years.
Miss Lulu Small, of Shrewsbury, Pa, is visit.

What Mothers Forethought Did.-The
Belair Agis of last week said "The Junior
Gunpowder Farmers Club of Baltimore county
made good point at their recent meeting, held
at the residence of Mr.. D. s. Pearce, when they
commended the attractive nature of the wide
avenue of trees which leads up to the residence,
this being the fruits of his mothers fore
thought and labor when young woman. The
shade is not confined to one variety of trees
alone, and the result is particularly pleasing as
shown in the changing foliage at this season.
There is no act which so completely evidences
the unselfsh nature of person than the plant
ing of trees. Under the best circumstances the
fruits of ones labor will be reaped many years
later, generally by another generation, but
when the full grown tree is developed it is a
thing of beauty and reminder of its author for
many years to come"

fifty thousand dollars has been subscribed to
the stock and application has been made to
the Comptroller of the Treasury for charter,

reply stating that as Highlandtown had pop

A Plea for Wild Birds.-William butcher,
president of the National Association of
Audubon Societies, declared at the annual
meeting of the association, in the American
Museum of Natural History in New York on
Tuesday that Americans were robbing poster
ity and permitting an annual crop loss OF $780,
600 900. due to destroying insect-eating birds.
He called for fund to fight the commercial
bird killers in every state legislature. IF we
permit the heritage of wild birds that still exist
TO be further wasted and destroyed we are rob-
hing our children" Mr.. butcher told the dele
gates. 1.-The public, as trustees, are in honor
bound to preserve the wild birds for those that
follow us. We do not wish our children to feel
about us as we do about our fathers, who per-
mitted the wanton and useless extinction ofthe
bison and the wild pigeons. In the matter of
bird legislation there is no resting place; the
only price of satisfactory bird protection is
eternal watching of legislatures, for in an un-
guarded moment an amendment may be passed
that will undo the work of years."
Thinks He Has Found Long Lost Daugh-
ter.-Upon being informed by friend that
Sheriff Padgett, of Baltimore city, had received

more to find out if the letter could possibly be
from his daughter, whom he had not seen for
many years. Mr.. Zepp told Deputy Sheriff
Heine that he is positive Mrs. Pearce is his
daughter. As soon as the aged man finished
telling his story, Mr.. Heine sent message to
Mrs. Pearce, who lives at Fairview Custer
