The Baltimore Chamber Of Com
merce will send out circulars 10 she
farmers OF the State In which will Be
explained the latest and most mod.
ern methods for soil fertilization and
the opinion Is expressed that the
campaign viii be fruitful OF results.
Collins Vincent. who is one OF the
prime movers in the idea 20 educate
the farmers OF Maryland In the ques-
tion, is confident that within q few
years the soil OF Maryland will be
the best and most fertile in the
United States for the cultivatioa Of
grain. The circular contains the
following information:
Have you any choice seed grain
for sale. or will you need seedl II
you have any good seed grain you
should send sample 20 your State
experiment station, stating how much
you have aud the price you want
for IL. Your name will be listed
and sent to those who ask for good
seed. II you need good seed ask
the State experiment station where
to get ii and what 10 will cost. II
you produce your own seed grain IL
is important to select 10 early out
Of the best part of the crop and take
good care Of IT,
You should never fail to use o
good tanning mill, selecting only the
heaviest and plumpest kernels OF
good body for sowing. and avoid
planting shriveled and varied kerr
nels. Wheat. oats. barely and rye
seed may be best prepared by fan
ming mills. which separate by size
and by weight. by means Of screens
and wind blast. A good tanning
mill. properly used. will more than
pay FOR itself in single season. If
your seed appears to be mixed or
falling off in yield. IL will pay 10 get
pure breed seed OF the best strai q
adapted to your soil and climate.
II you have any doubt as 10 what
varieties to plant. write the State
Experiment Station and ask them
which will do best in your soil and
climate. Are you testing your seed
for terminating qualities? It-is o
simple matter and the experiment
station will send you full directions
for doing it at home. Do not waste
your time in sowing new varieties
Except on a small tract as o expert
meuD unless your experiment. sta
tion recommends them. You can
not sfford 10 take the chances. Let
the experiment station do the test
ing of new varieties aud learn the
results from them. Whenever smut
appears. treat the seed grain with
formalin solution. By attention 10
these rules, you can increase your
crop from 4 TO 10 bushels per acre,
with very little extra expense. Ad-
ditional attention to cultural me-
tbods and soil fertilization will add
further to the profits.

Scenes OF My Home Town

Written for the Beacon.)
My locks are mixed with silver
And furrows cross my brow,
And my legs are not as steady
AS they might be- even now;
And as the evening shade VS. gather,
When the night isdrawing nigh
I rock my chair by the fire
And long for the days gone by.
As gaze at the glowing logs
Memory slowly responds to will,
I see in my dear old hometown,
The quaint old schoolhouse still; /;
Some window panes are missing
And a shutter Is hanging loose.
And the iron bell is rusty
After many days of use.
| feel my heart grow younger.
When suddenly there appears.
A charming little maiden,
The idol Of past years;
Her young face is as lovely
As the violet after rain,
And OF her voice 10 my ears
A sound will long remain.
| seek for other scenes,
AT very impatient pace;
To restore each TO my memory,
AS their final resting place;
Tracing my eager footsteps
Along the througbfsre,
| see the same old landmarks
That years ago we're there.
Here is the grand old hostelry.
The famous 'Inn OF Mo1re,"
Irihere ''darkeys" make the 6ddles

APROPOS OF "TOMMY" JOHNSON

The report of the death of
"Tommy" Johnson is received with
regret not only by university OF
Kansas students who knew him but
by every ore in the Middle West
WHO has given any particular atten-
tion to school athletics. He was in
the public eye so prominently as a
remarkable all around athlete that it
did not seem natural that he would
succumb to disease in his early man
hood. In Johnson's case however it
was his great determination and
rigid physical training which fought
back the tuberculosis and enabled him
to so thoroughly establish his athletic
prowers before his death.

The house was comparatively new.

cause of the fire or the estimated
loss could be secured this morning.
