SUGAR SEASON QUICKLY ENDED
"King Elijah" Officially Declares it
CloSed-Cr0p Very Light.

The maple sugar season of 1910 is
over, and it goes on record as one of
the shortest on record in the history of
the industry in Somerset county.
Elijah Livengood, the sugar king"
of Elk Lick township and Garrett
county, Md, was in MeyersdaIe last
Monday and officially declared the
season closed. He said little more
might be made if any freezing spells
should come hereafter, but it would be
of such poor quality as not to be worth
the making.
"Lige" says the sap was running
pretty well yet during the warm
weather of last week, but it soon turn
ed milky and was not fit to boil down,
so he turned his keelers upside down
and is waiting for rain to swell them
enough for them to hold together before
gathering them in.
The king" made only about 400 or
1900 gallons of syrup this year which
would be counted a big crop by most of
the owners of sugar groves, but con
stitutes a very small output for his big
camp.
The season began later that usual this
year and closed earlier. There We're
only about two good runs. But for the
fact hat good deal of last years crop
still remained in the hands Of dealers at
the opening of this year, sugar season,
the shortage of the new crop would be
more keenly felt. Just how much re-
manned in the warehouses from last
year. is not known, but the chances are
that considerable old sugar will find its
way into the market this year along
with the new, and the consumers will
never know the difference. Before the
last Of this years crop is marketed
prices viii probably rule higher than
last year. -Meyersdale Republican.

Park Association, who is also;;as cham
piOn Of the liquor interests in Baltimore
city, said in speech in thei. House of
Delegates last week, that | had paid
but S4 taxes during my residence IN the
Park. He hardly made that statement
of his own knowledge but at the in
stance Of some of the lobbyists for the
Association. Every one in! this COM
munity knows that the statement is a
willful and malicious lie, but those at a
distance may not have this information,
hence wish to say that have .been a
taxpayer IN Mountain Lake Park for
over twenty years and have. paid taxes
on my own account to amount of about
one hundred dollars, and on my wife's
account to amount of over one hundred
dollars. Besides this | have paid for
lots over one thousand dollars, which
cost the Association originally less than
twenty dollars.

out by the Association immaculate
champion to be held up to rIdicule, but
surmise that it was because am an old
Union soldier, and all in this community
know that number of the present

STATE TAX RATE FIXED
Shows a Heavy Increase Over That
Of Former Years.

Annapolis, Md, March 30.-From the
Senate finance committee there came
last night the bill fixing the State tax
rate for 1911 and 1912. 1t was introduce
ed under suspension of the rules.
For 1911 the tax rate is to be % cents
on the 500, and for 1912 it is to be 234
cents.
The apportionment for 1911 is 165
cents for public schools; a cents to
meet interest and create a sinking fund
for the redemption OF the State roads
loan; one cent for the State Insane
Hospital loan; one-qualter OF cent Tor
the public highways loan of 1910, and
one-eighth Of a cent for the sanatorium
loan.
For 1912 the terms are. similar,
except that the tax fer the State roads
loan is increased to 81 centsand that for
the public highways loan Of 1910 is m
creased to one half cent.
Accompanying the tax ratejblll came
the general appropriation bill and the
omnibus bill making appropriations to
various institutions and schools. Included
in the latter measure is an appropria-
ton Of S25, 600 to the Johns Hopkins
University For each of the..years 1911
and 1912. The items in the somnibus
appropriation bill for institutions have
already been published. The.bill for the
support of the State government con-
tains the usual amounts for the salaries
of judiciary, executive and other State
officials and for the support of thelpub-
lie schools The amount of the latter
appropriation is 81, $50, 600.
Discussing last night thej increased
State tax rate, Chairman Price, of the
finance committee, pointed out that the
increase was due to new provisions for
the State care of the insane, to IN
creased accommodations to be provided
for tuberculosis sufferers and to the
State road loans.
The new loan for the State sanator-
ilm adds Une-eighth of a cent; for the
State care of the insane one cent: for
the new highways loan-that for Bal
timore-Annapohs boulevard and bridges
-one-Quarter Of a cent, and 5for the
State road loan of 1908, A cents.
Two years ago, Mr.. Prcerpoints out,
the levy for school purposes was only
133 cents the balance of tnesmoney re-
quired being taken from the general
treasury. Then, too, Mr.. Price says,
the sum of $4,000 was realized from
the inheritance tax.

Will Forestry Pay?

With the increasing cost of building
material and timber of all kinds, the
question is often askedIwhy mot. grow
timber for profit?
The fact that it takes many years to
grow a timber crop deters most people
from undertaking it.
Conditions to-day are most favorable
for the adoption of forestry methods
then ever before. There are large areas
everywhere that are better suited 10
timber-growing than for any other pur-
pose and such lands will eventually he
managed for timber production. 1t is a
crop that requires minimum amount of
labor and good prices are assured. In
most cases the land is already fully
stocked with young growth which, with
a little care, can be developed into valu-
able forests.
The writer recently examinedia volun-
teer growth of yellow locust, 1s years
old, on a mountain-side in Garrett
country. A majority of the trees were
big enough to make two fence-posts
each. The stand had been thinned at
the proper time and would produce on
the average /, 800 posts an acre.
On a mountain farm of $50 acres, in
Washington county, about $50 acres
had grown up in locust, the trees being
n bnItt wars old Tho Question scI-ol
by the owner was-''will this stand of
locust net me at the end of the next Is
years more than clearing up the land
and using it for farming. purposes?"
By comparing the rate of growth of the
trees and the probable return in 10
years, as compared with the net rental
for the same amount of cleared land,
the balance was decidedly in favor of
growing locust fence-posts in prefer
ence to corn, and the landowner has
decided to let the locust grow.
While locust is probably the best tree
for fence-post production, there is a
number of other trees that will produce
equal financial returns for other pur-
poses, such as chestnut for poles; yell
low poplar, loblolly pine and red oak for
saw timber.
Of course, longer time will be re-
quired to grow telephone poles than to
grow fence-posts, and a still longer
time to grow saw logs, but the value of
the product is likely to increase, to a
certain limit, in proportion to the age
of the crop or even at a greater rate.
If practical forestry will pay under
present conditions, surely the profits to
be derived from future timber crops
with the certain advance of prices
makes it good proposition.

Use 90 900 Balls A Season.

Twenty thousand balls are used an
nually by the major league clubs during
the training trips and championship
campaigns. John Arnold Heydler'
secretary-treasurer of the National
League, reports that last year the
teams in his organization called on the
manufacturers to furnish them 800
dozen spheres. The Reds used the most
balls, and then came the Pirates, the
Cubs, the Giants, the Phillies, the
Doves, the Superbas and st. Louis.
The watchdog of the National League
treasury will not tell what price the
clubs pay for the official balls, but
Charles D. White, one of A. G. Spalding
& Bros. ambassOrs, inslnuates that
persons who guess that a major league
club spends about 81, 900 a year for
spheres are not far out of the way.
Each ball, therefore, costs probably so
cents. The price of the spheres varies
from year to year.
