Care of Cane Fruits,

Blackberries are easily raised In IL
linois soils. The fall is the best time
for planting. Set in rows about nine
feet apart, three feet in row. Com
mence cultivation as soon as ground
is In proper condition in the spring
Cultivate deep in the early part of the
season. Later practise shallow cult
walton with harrow. Dust mulch is
better and cheaper than straw. The
latter also tends to harbor mice and
insects. Bushes should be trimmed
twice a year, being cut back the Sec
ond spring to a height of to 31s
feet. After picking is over cut out
old canes and all small and weak
growths.

BertiIlon's Burglar Trap.

ed by marks left by burglary tools on
wood.
The device consists Of two dynome-
ters, which, placed at right angles, are
used to register pressure and horizon
tai traction. AS accessories to the
machine are pieces of wood of all
kinds. A piece OF wood similar to that
on which the marks of the tools have
been found is placed in the machine;
then the marks on the original piece
of wood are reproduced on the new
piece of wood by means Of tools like
those used by the thief. The amount
of force used by the burglar is regis
tered by the apparatus. M. Bertillon
points out that there are occasions
when it may be very valuable to know
the exact amount of force used by a
burglar.

The Standard Oil company has in
creased the wages of it's workmen
from to 10 per cent. The order is
retroactive and became effective May

will add from 100000 to $10,000,000
to its annual pay roll expense. The
new scale affects employees engaged
in the company's works and factories,

flied by this increase. Most Of the
employees who will get the increase
are laborers, and the advance applies
to all the subsidiary companies in the

proximately 10000 employees. The

HOLLAND
To Be RETIRED
Bill Was Passed By Senate And
There Are Now Several
Candidates

The Senate Committee on Judicial
Prodeedings reported back Thursday
the bill retiring Judge Wright, Of Balti-
more City, with the amendment which
includes Judge Holland in the First
circuit. The bill was speedily passed
and sent back to the House. where the
amendment was concurred in.
Judge Holland was in Annapolis
when the bill was passed and sanctioned
the move to retire him. In letter to
Senator Price. Judge Holland expressed
a desire to be retired. He will have
reached the age limit IN April, 1911,
but his health is not good and he is un-
able to give the attention to his work
that it requires. Judge Holland sue
ceeded the late Ephriam X. Wilson in
1884 when the latter was elected to the
Senate, and he has served continuously
since then, having been twice elected.
Judge Holland was elected in 1888 and
reelected in 1903. He has been one of
the hardest working Judges on the
bench in this Circuit and deserves the
retirement he asked for.
Judge Holland came to Salisbury
from Delaware in 1869 and soon formed
a law partnership with the late Geo. W.
NJ. Cooper. which continued until he
was appointed Judge by Governor Nc
Lane.
The appointment of a successor to
Judge Holland will be made by Cover
nor Crothers. but it is said the appoint
ment will not be made for several weeks
yet.

BaItimOre's Cry for Help.

II is rather amusing to the ordinary
countrymen to hear the appeals of the
Baltimore Sun to the country members
of the Legislature to save the City from
being throttled by the city members. Is
there any better arguments against in
creased representation for Baltimore
than the Sun and News have been max
ing this week No The city with a
population made up of every element Of
humanity is hardly capable of govern
ing itself. and it certainly should not be
granted dominating place in ruling the
State simply because it has thousands
of foreign-born citizens who have no
more idea what is good for Maryland
than Soup-house Bonaparte knows what
is best for the negro. More than once
have the substantial business men of
Baltimore successfully appealed to the
counties to save the city from being
seriously injured by its own representa-
tives.

ing of berries. Let every farmer, who
can or will plant a patch, come prepared
to say how many he will put out, as the
more there is planted the better train
service we will receive. Also every man
who has patch should come and see Mr..
Kingston, and ask him to give us at

Everybody turn out and bring your
