OUR NEED OF sHAD.
The Suggestion That the Govern
ment Should Do More Breeding.

From the Baltimore American.
There Is undoubtedly occasion for ths
alarms that are sounded with each re-
curing springtime by the fishermen OF
the Chesapeake bay region concerning
the continuously lessening supply OF shad
and herring that come In from the ocean.
The fishermen OF the upper bay region
claim that these ocean-grown fishes are
trapped by unfair and wholesale meth
DDS in the lower bay region, while below
the mouth of the Potomac the fishermen
say that the annual runs are nothing like
what they used to be. Both statements
are undoubtedly correct.
The grabbing methods all along the
route are more ingenious and ten times
more extensive than they were twenty
years ago. which means that the vast
schools that come in from the ocean
every springtime are being divided among
q greater multitude OF takers. But IL is
also undoubtedly true that natural props-
cation is not more than one-tenth az
prolific as IL was two decades ago, and
the artifciaI Matching by the conjoint
efforts Of the state and national govern
ments Is not anything like making up for
the nine-tenths shortage in natural breed
ing.
The deduction is that artificial breeding
of these important food fishes should be
ouadrupled. or. to be adequate. should be
increased tenfold. Instead OF turning
loose IS, OO0, 600 of young shad in Chesa-
peake water, the government ought an
nually to free 800, 100000 or 400, 900 oOo.
and the state of Maryland ought TO COL
lect a sufiicicnt revenue from the fishing
industries to justify the increase OF the
existing Matching facilities at least ten
fold. There is some reason for discour-
agement in the fact that the FISH bred in
the Maryland hatcheries may be taken
in the lower waters by the Virginia fish
ermen.
There ought to be national legislation
that will keep the central region OF the
bay and all the channelways of rivers
tributary to the bay open to migratory
movements Of the ocean fish. The supply
of shad and herring can be indefinitely
multiplied by artificial propagation. Hun
dreds of tons of shad roe are eaten every
year. but three tons Matched would fully
stock the Chesapeake waters.

PLEA FOR THE ABOLITION
OF THE BACKYARD FENCE
Efforts to Make the Rear of Homes as Attractive
as the Front---Flowers and Hedges
Used for Dividing Lines.

as has come to be the case to such a
large extent in recent years. then the
parking in front joins with the back wards,
so that the effect is of houses standing In
a park. To get such a result in a city
block seems impossible. But II is not.
The width of the streets in this city lend
their help and SO do the trees that bor-
der the sidewalks and soften and make
graceful the harsh surfaces and outlines
OF the masses Of brick and stone which
are inevitable in city.
No one can question that what holds
the eye Of the visitor as something he
does not find in his own city. but which
he would like to have as his own home
surroundings, are the trees and the
stretches of lawns in front Of the houses.
There are perhaps no two things about
this city that bring as many people to
make their homes here and sell as many
houses as these two. and the transform
ing Of the back yard Is right in line with
conditions in the front of houses.

TO OPEN UP NEW SUBDIVISION
Chevy Chase Land Company Has
Plan Under Way.

1t is said to be the intention of the
Chevy Chase Land Company, which has
extensive holdings along Connecticut
avenue from Cleveland Park north to the
District line. and also some distance
into Maryland. to open up another SUBJ
division in the coming months. The
exact location is not given. but it is said
that it will be south of the circle and also
of the subdivision on the east side of
Connecticut avenue, which has been the
scene of such extensive building opera
tons during the past season or two.
1t is said that the lots will be placed on
the market just as has been done with
the property of the company that has
been subdivided both within the limits Of
the District and i'm the portion outside in
Maryland. and that it will be handled by
Thomas ]. Fisher & Co., agents of the
company.
With two exceptions there has been no
use of this sort made Of the long stretch
of realty holdings within the District.
and now it looks as II this were the be-
ginning of a movement to connect the
two portions with the prospect or hav-
ing a continuous line OF houses along the
length Of the avenue.

The Value Of Charcoal.
The National Magazine

From the National Magazine.
Charcoal has great value as an antisep-
tic. Smoked ham will keep for years
packed in charcoal. A few Jumps Of 1t
in cistern will keep the water pure and
sweet. 4 quantity Of II In cellar will
absorb the odors, and q small lump boiled
with cabbage or onions will do the same.
Butter put into small vessels completely
surrounded with charcoal will keep sweet
a long time. A paste OF powdered char
coal and honey makes a good dentifrice.
| Ii not only cleans the teeth, but disinfects
them and sweetens the breath. Taken in
wardly II Is good for the digestion and
relieves constipation.

4 PRINCESS STEAMSHIP LINE.
One Of Denmark's Royal Highnesses
Marine Expert.

From London Ift-Bifs.
Several royal ladies have had the hon.
orary title o. admiral conferred upon
them, and are privileged to wear a uni
form denoting their rank. Princess
Waldemar of Denmark is one OF them.
but she is the only lady ia the world
who could take full command of battle
ship This daughter-in-law Of the royal
house of Denmark has an extraordinary
passion for the sea, and can manage any
thing that floats, from a sailing yacht to
a Dreadnought.
Her ropal highness has actually organ
lied and controls one of the biggest ship
ping companies in Denmark. She is so
proud Of her accomplishment in nautical
matters that she has had q large anchor
tattooed on her arm, TO remind her. friends
OF her connection with the Danish navy.
The anchor is plainly seen when she APP
pears in evening dress.
Possibly her fascination for the sea is
due to the fact that her husband, Prince
Waldemar, Is commodore OF the Danish
navy. while her SON is attending the Naval
Academy In order to fit himself for a
career afioat. She has assisted them In
their studies. and In so doing has made
herself conversant In the whole art OF
navigation. and desired to see her own
| country taking a more prominent part in
the worlds shipping industry.
Denmark is quite a small country and
does not require large feet, So this
patriotic woman made UP her mind to de-
vote her attention to building up the
nations merchant marine Using the in
| f1uence of the royal circle, she consulted
great financiers. bankers, business men
and those prominent in shipping circles
These kings Of industry instructed her
! In the methods OF forming a stock COM
pany and of securing capital besides
giving her advice on the starting and
maintaining OF a gigantic steamship line
AS soon as the plans were completed she
startled the business world few years
| ago by. publishing the prospectus Of a
company to operate a line Of steamers .e-
tween Scandinavia and various ports In
the far east.
The company was successfully launched
| and soon became a prosperous concern
Branches have sprung up all over Europe

Denmark. Every morning her royal high
ness is present In her private office, and
with the assistance OF "A staff OF shipping
experts. controls one of the most impor-
tant steamship lines in the world.

though more successful in destroying
coyotes than any other man in the state.
Coyote Bill says he has never used poi

He does all his worH with traps. and II
may be imagined with what care and skill

The opinion of the farmers gen
orally is that the prospects for a
good wheat crop the coming sea-
son were never better. While
the most of the wheat is more
backward and does not show up
quite so well as it generally doe
at this time of year, yet they
think it will be all the better on
that account, as the Hessian fly
Will not be so apt to bother it.
In fact the most of the wheat
was SOwn much later than usual
last fall on account of this as
the past few years in fields
where the wheat was the. most
backward the fly did the least
damage, and in almost all of the
early SOwn wheat, flies did great
harm, some of the farmers esti-
mating that their late sown
wheat yielded as high as 10 bush
els more per acre on this account,
than did the early sowing under
the same conditions as regards
the condition of the soil. A much
larger acreage than usual of corn
will be planted this spring, as
the farmers here are realizing
that it is really more Of a money
making crop than wheat, and be.
sides the rotation Of crops is
a mighty good thing for the
soil.
