Elkton, Maryland, Saturday, January ~, 1910

A mPst remarkable case has just oc-
curredl showing that the Government is
strictly just and does not plead the
statute OF limitation as to debt.
A month ago, private soldier, who
served in the Civil,War, received re-
quest from the War Department to
furnish his address, and signature iden-
tined by two witnesses. He had no
idea OF the purpose of the request, but
had his signature identified by H. H. B.
Mcfarland and H. l.. West, Commits
sioners Of the District of Columbia.
Imagine the agreeable surprise of the
veteran when he received in a couple
OF weeks war settlement warrant"
directing the Treasurer of the United
States to pay the said soldier the sum
OF $25 The warrant was signed by the
Assistant Treasurer, Assistant Secre-
tary, Comptroller and Chief Clerk. not
one OF whose names experts have been
able to decipher
No request was made for this money
for the soldier did not know OF any
money due him. And yet forty-eig5t
years after his discharge from the SER
vice the United States Government
finds in some mysterious way that it
owes an obscure private soldier the
sum OF SIS. and hunts him up and sends
him the check for the money.

Mr.. MendenhalPS Good
ADVICE To Farmers

The Cecil Farmers Club met last
week at the home of Mr.. A. H. Men
denhall. The host, in his essay upon
that occasion, gave some good advice
to farmers, which we herewith repro
'ducc:
We sometimes think in summer,
when we don't know what to do first,
it surely would be nice il we had moth
ing to do or to see to, but no man was
ever weather. or happier in his life
than when he was eating three good
meals and working every day. | heard
an old farmer say not long ago that the
hardest years work he ever did in his
life was the year he retired in small
town with nothing to do. don't think
1t is accordin~ to nature for us to do
nothing, although some do too much
for their own good and some don't do
enough. like other people. 1t takes all
kinds OF farmers to make world. Sue
cess on the farm is not always to the
smartest 1t is sometimes more to
those what We might call the fore
handed farmer or one who has his work
done when it should be done 1t is an
old but true saying " stitch in time
sometimes saves nine" Winter time
is the time to look after the little things
on the farm, such as getting ou har-
ness and machinery in order This is
more important now than in the years
back Tor every year sees the farmer
with more machinery to do his work
and less labor. 1t surely is more pleas
ant i'll the spring when all the work
comes on at one time if all our ma
chimes are in god order 1t is a good
plan ii when done using things-if
broken i'll any way--to make little
note OF it and then it will not be for
gotten
In the cutivating oi crops is when
the iorehanded farmer comes in. Ii in
killing OF weeds we take them in time
one man can do as much as six. If
they are let go too long that often
means a good crop OF corn or potatoes
for weeds and crops do not grow in the
same held the same year. Farming
never was better than at the present
time. Everything is worth two or three
times as much as ii was from five to
ten years ago. Oh course things that
we buy are also higher. but the balance

even II he has t" pay more Tor it.
Some farmers talk about labor being
So high and scarce We must as farm
ers remember that the working man
cannot work now for what he did ten
wears ago. Men could be hired then
