Maryland g. Pennsylvania R. R. Ru-
mors.-The Belair Democrat of last week said :
"In Baltimore financial circles this week the
persistent rumors of the Maryland & Pennsyl-
yania R. r future have been revived and it is
said that plans are under way looking to a
merger of this road with the Annapolis Short
Line and the United Railways Of Baltimore;
The banking house of Alex. Brown & Co. and
allied interests control the stock of the three
corporations and it is not unlikely that there
will be something done when Mr.. Brown re-
turns from his summer outing. 1t is said that
the Maryland & Pennsylvania is to be electri-
fed, using the overhead trolley system as now
used by the United Railways of Baltimore.
The road bed is now being Strengthened in
several places and a number of sharp curves
are being eliminated, which gives credence to
the report The company owns a valuable
franchise to use the Belt Line Tunnel to Cam
den Station of the Baltimore & Ohio R. r.
when easy connection could be made with the
Annapolis Short Line at small cost, which
would give an excellent system of interburban
lines from Baltimore. The securities of the
road have been quite active during the past
week"

Pleased With the Progress Being Made.
This week the County Commissioners an
nounced that they had completed an inspec-
ton of road work being done in large part Of
the county and are pleased with the progress

Board were taken in an automobile over the

clare, will be the greatest one in the history OF
the county for road building.

Drought Severe in Harford.-Farmers
and Gamers in Hartford report that the ex-
tent Of one-half, if general opinion is correct,
and the tomato crop, which ten days ago
promised fair returns, is rapidly collapsing.
Unless rain comes very soon, il is said, the cann-
ing season will be over in two weeks, and it
has Just fairly begun. One farmer living near
Joppa states that he planted 10 acres IN corn
and that he has already plowed all but two
acres up, as the stalks never attempted to make
ears and were only waist high. A number of
farmers in the lower section of the county are
cutting and stacking their fodder, and this oper-
alton at this season is almost unprecedented.
As for pasture, that was gone long ago, and
owners of stock are confronted by dismal
outlook.

Now for the Fair.-Practically all prepa-
rations for the County Fair at Timonium next
week have been completed, and the managers
are confident that the records of the most sue
cessful years will be eclipsed. The only draw
back to perfect conditions is the dust, which is
very thick on the country roads. Rain;
though, next week would be somewhat
mixed blessing, although it is doubtful
whether the managers would not willingly
accept it and take the risk.
An exhibition of flying machine-a mon
oplane-is announced to take place in the in
field on Saturday. During the week this de-
vice will be shown in an enclosure.
The exhibits of live stock of all kinds will
be very large. The list of breeds of cattle en-
tered includes Guernsey, Red Polled, Ayre-
shire, Polled Durham, Devon, French Cana
dian, Dexter Kerry, Galloway, Holstein-
Fresian and Jersey. The entries in the hog,
sheep and goat pens are very numerous. The
horse show will be superb, and it includes this
wear a large line of heavy draught animals.
The electrical exhibit will be something
new, and very good one is promised. A
moving picture theatre of the better sort is
among the sideshows this year. The ma
chinery and household exhibits will be up to
the usual standard, but it will be strange il
the exhibits of vegetables. fruits and flowers
do not show the effects of the severe drought

Discouraging Outlook for Corn.-Whiie
in Baltimore few days ago Mr.. Charles A.
Councilman.a widely-known Fourth district
farmer, was interviewed on the great drought OF
the summer of 1909. He said: II planted l2S
acres of corn this year and from the care and
attention that was given it l felt sure OF get
ting at least 20 barrels to the acre: AS it is, l
think will get about A. and Pm lucky at that.
Not since 1882 has the Maryland corn crop
failed, and even then it was not absolutely
general, but it did fail in most Of the counties
at that time. It's simply burning up, and as
we don't irrigate, there is nothing to do but lei
it burn"
Mr.. Councilman did not say that he remem-
bers that very torrid summer OF 1882. but hii
grandfather, he says told him about it.
