Warden Weyler and His Cnlcken
Farm. "-Expressing his intention OF raising
first-cIass poultry, Warden John +. Weyler,
of the Maryland Pententiary. has purchased
7O-acre farm on the Pot Spring road, east OF
Timonium, from Mrs. Francis I. Homer. The
farm was the property of Mr.. Weyler until
1901. when it was bought by Mr.. Homer. Mr..
WeyIer says that he had absolutely no idea OF
retiring from his present position for some
time but merely purposed this step IN order to
have a well established chicken farm to which
he might give his attention upon retirement,
In speaking of the place Mr.. Weyler said :
ut is certainly an ideal locality for the pur-
pose to which / intend putting it. There are
81 acres of cleared land and Is Of woodland
The ground is most fertile and produces as tne
crops of corn and wheat as any in that vicin-
ity. In addition to these features. the place
includes 12-room house equipped with not
water beating and all the latest improvements.
'As long as 1 continue my active duties at
the Penitentiary l intend using the farm
merely an a source of diversion. intend MT
ting M the place to compare favorably with
anV chicken farm in the county. In the
spring a competent man will be placed IN
charge, his attention to be given solely 10
raising White Leghorns. Crystal White Oipn-
ingtons and several fancy breeds OF dncks :,
II will be remembered that when the land
became the property of Mrs. Homer 1t was
nsed as fresh-afr farm. This idea was aban-
doned several years ago and since then the
land has been worked with most satisfactory
results.

The Good Roads Movement.-The Good
Roads Association Of Baltimore County, Capt.
@. Lyon Rogers president, has begun its cam
paign in favor of the issue of 81, 100000 of
bonds for the permanent improvement of the
roads of the county. The report of the special
committee Of the association favoring the issue
of bonds has been printed in pamphlet form
and is being distributed among the taxpayers
A law providing that the voters of the
county shall vote on the proposed bond issue
in 1910 will be presented at the next session OF
the Legislature. The report states that after
making full investigation of the matter the
committee decided that the most feasible plan
to secure the immediate and permanent inn
provement of the roads Of the county was to
issue bonds. The report says:
Your committee believes that the taxpay
or of today should enjoy the advantages Of
good roads, but that as these advantages and
benefits will be shared and enjoyed by those
who come after the present generation they,
too, should share the cost of the present build
ing. We are therefore, in favor of bond is
sue extending over a period of fifty years,
rather than the burden of direct tax, because
the long term issue makes it possible to raise
the necessary means without appTeciably adj
vancing the tax rate, and distributes the pay
ment of hee cost among those who wihderive
benefits in years to come. and at the s.me
time provides for the road improvement with
out delay
The report proposes that the fund derived
from the sale of the bonds shall be expended
by q non-partisan commission.
