This State May Lose Con.
gresham.

Some anxiety is felt by the Maryland
members as to the possibility of Mary
land losing one Congressman as a result
of the United States Census now being
taken. Should the census result in the
reduction of Maryland's representation
from six TO five members. it would not,
Of course. affect the Congressional cleo
ton next fall. as the apportionment
based on the census will not be made by
Congress until the next session.
Those who have been looking into the
question say, that unless in the last II
years the population of Maryland has in.
creased 1870, 900 the State is in danger OF
having its representation reduced by al
least one Congressman. No one can tel
now what the apportionment will be,
but, Judging by the figures for the last
30 years, Il will be increased about y, 600.
In 1881 the apportionment was one mem
Der of Congress for every l5l. 81 IN
1891 one for every l73, 90l and IN 1901,
the last census, il was one for every
1874, lS2. IL these figures are any crIter-
ion the apportionment based on this, the
Thirteenth Census, will be one for about
every PIG, 900 population. This would
compel Maryland 10 have gained in the
10 years since the last census about y,
600 for each district, or l32, 600 Tor the
whole State.

State to Rule Its Roads.

The State Road Commission took an
important and reaching step Monday
when it declined to grant all the conces-
sions ask Ted by Montgomery County Com
missioners. Had all the concessions
wanted by the County Commissioners
been granted. the state would practi-
cally have surrendered final supervision
and control of its own highways in the
county. and if the states rights had
been surrendered in Montgomery it was
claimed that they could be surrendered
in other counties. especially in Wicomi-
co, Caroline and Worcester counties,
whose commissioners have been award
ed contracts at their bids to build the
roads.
Governor Crothers. Chairman Tucker,
and Mr.. 5. N. Shoemaker, members of

ing. stoutly maintained the states rights

Many Hogs Saved By Anti
Cholera Serum.

A recent outbreak of hog cholera &C.
Cured at Fort Delaware, and DIR. Chas.
+. Dawson, State Veterinarian. was sent
for. He applied anti-hog cholera serum
to 90 hogs and saved % Of them.
The preventive serum for this disease
was discovered by the Bureau of Animal
Industry a few years ago and this bureau
has since endeavored to interest all
State governments in its production.
The serum is costly and one State makes
charge of so cents for serum enough
to protect $50 pound hog. This serum
will no more cure hog cholera than vac
cination will cure small pox, but it will
prevent il. Given drove of hogs which
are dying of cholera, two or three day.
the veterinarian can, by injecting the
proper dose under the skin. check the
deaths in few days. Or. given drove
in which hog cholera does not exist the
drove can be protected absolutely against
infection. Such protected hogs can live
with, and can cat the carcasses of hogs
dead from cholera without contracting
the disease. They are absolutely i'm
mune.
As the Bureau of Animal Industry
could not. for obvious reasons, under
take to furnish the various States with
the serum. representatives of the States
were invited to witness the method Of
its production at the hog cholera farm
near Ames. Iowa. and were furnished
enough yirulent hog-cholera virus to
start serum production. The Delaware
State Board of Agriculture sent its
veterinarian TO witness these demon
strations and he has since successfully
produced the serum at the Delaware
College Experiment Station. In the
half dozen or more outbreaks IN which
the serum has been used. great benefits
have been conferred.

Amendments To Postal Laws

Still more amendments to the postal
regulations are proposed. A bin is now
pending in the Senate designed to meet
complaints that letters are not returned
to the sender when undelivered at their
destination.
This bill provides that in all cases
when letters are Endorsed with the adj
dress and name of the sender they are
to be returned when undeiivered, and
not to be advertised or sent to the dead
letter office. The amendment has the
approval of the Postoffice Department.
Wednesday two amendments to the
postal regulations passed the Senate.
The first Of these provides for the re-
turn to the sender Of a registered pack
age or letter of the receipt of the party
10 whom il is delivered. This receipt.
however. is to be issued only when the
sender specifically asks for il. The
second regulation acted upon provides
that the postmaster issuing a money
order shall send notice of the fact TO
the postmaster to whom the order is
issued. This is for the purpose Of pre-
venting fraud and imposition in cashing
money orders.
