Garrett Lands for Sugar Beet Culture

observer, " of Shenandoah Junction,
Va, writing to the Baltimore Sun,
says:
| notice from a number of tests made
in sugar beet culture that there is now
absolutely no doubt about the sugar con-
tanned in the beets raised in Western
Maryland and in the eastern panhandle
of West Virginia, and in the Shenan-
doah Valley of Virginia.
The tests have been continued now
for several years and show a sugar con-
tent of over 20 per cent. in some cases.
This, too, without expert and proper
attention. This means that in ton of
raw beets there are 400 pounds of sugar
of the standard purity, and as the aver
age price is cents pound, making a
ton of beets worth 5000 for sugar and
the beet pulp after sugar is extracted
is worth considerable to farmers, be-
sides the fertility remaining in the soil
from the little rootlets and beet tops.
1t is no unusual occurrence to raise as
many as 35 tons of sugar beets to the
acre, which at 20 per cent. basis will
yield 500 worth of sugar at a cost of
about 10 days labor for man, boy and
horse. | should think farmers would
certainly be willing to contract to supply
sugar factory for number of years.
The farmers IN the West estimate the
pulp, top and fertility left in soil will
pay them for their work and what they
receive for their beets will be clear
profit. Anyone desiring any absolutely
reliable information about the beet Gull
ture can obtain same by writing to the
Agricultural Department, Washington.
1t has the record of the tests made with
beets raised in Jefferson county, West
Virginia, and Garrett county, Maryland,
Clark county, Virginia, and other points
in Virginia.

DR.. SCOTT FOR GOVERNOR
Republicans Think Ha9erStown Hay
or Would be- Strong Nan.

A good-sized boom has been started
for Mayor j. Mcpherson Scott, the pop
ular executive Of Hagerstown, for gov
ernor on the Republican ticket, and
his bringing out as an available candi-
date has been received with many eX-
pressions of satisfaction from party
men in various portions Of the State.
DR.. Scott himself, whilesnot actually
discOuraging the movement, is disposed
to be very modest about the matter,
and disclaims entertaining any guber-
material aspirations. He has declared,
in speaking of the proposal, that last
summer some of his friends casually
mentioned the possibility of his being
made the banner bearer of his party in
the State campaign, but that he inform
ed them he entertained no political am
billions and that even in accepting the
place on the Hagerstown ticket for
mayor he did so against his own inclina-
lions, being prompted in making the
race solely a sense of duty toward the
people and to the party.

THE OLD NATIONAL ROAD IN
GARRETT TO Be IMPROVED
Five Miles Of the Highway May be
Rebuilt this Summer.

The people of that section of Garrett
county bordering on and near the old
National Pike between Frostburg and
Grantsville have at last some grounds
for believing that the Good Roads Com
mission intend to carry out their prom
Use made about three years ago to put
this historic road in a better condition.
The Roads Commission publicly an
nounced three years ago that they in
tended to make of that part of the Nat
lonal Pike running through Maryland a
great state highway. This annouce-
ment met with the approval of every
one who was familiar with the impor-
lance of this pike and knew of the i'm
mense amount of travel that is daily
done over it The people of Grants
vile and other farmers of Garrett coun-
ty, who suffer financial loss and often
times physical pain in travelling over
this road which is almost as rough as a
creek bottom, naturally were in sym
pathy with the announcement of the
Good Roads Commission and of course
assumed that they were serious in their
intention when they made.
In the three years that have elapsed
since the promise was made, the Good
Roads Commission has changed its .atti-
tude toward the National Pike and not
withstanding that its condition is known
to the commission, that the people have
persistently appealed for its improve
ment, that the Governor, in a speech in
Frostburg after being taken over the
road and made acquainted with its con-
dition, promised to aid in having i'm
mediate attention given to 1t the Nat
ional pike between Frostburg and
| Grantsville for some unknown reason
with the exception of one mile rebuilt
last season in Allegany county, remains
untouched and in such condition that
automobile travel over it is almost i'm
possible and teaming is dangerous and
difficult in numerous places.
That the commission has at last de-
termined to do something for that sec
ton Of Garrett county traversed,by the
National Pike became known several
weeks ago when Chairman Tucker Of
the Good Roads Commission assured
the rotary of the Frostburg Board
Of Trade that plans We're almost com
pleted for the building of a mile stretch
beginning at the end of the stretch
built last year and running . miles west
over Big Savage. mountain and stated
that bids would be asked for as soon as
the plans were finished.
Acting on this assurance.with a view
towards facilitating, the starting Of this
work, some public spirited citizens of
Frostburg invited J. E. Francis of Penn
syIvania to make a preliminary inspec-

: AIMARATHON RACE RUN|IN
GARRETT COUNTY MONDAY
George Smith, Recently Escaped From
House Of Correction. Led and Won.

With snow covering the face of the
earth, with no rules to hamper the con-
testants in their movements and no
official route laid out over which they
were to run, a sure enough Marathon
race occurred Monday in that section of
Garrett county lying between the Big
Yough river and the roads known as
Hooppole and Broadford.
There were but three entries in the
race, the contestants being George
Smith, who was recently sent to the
House of Correction from Garrett coun-
ty to serve a term of seven months for
theft, and Deputy Sheriff Shartzer and
Bliss Jamison, the latter pressed into
service by the officer. Sheriff Shartzer
and Jamison were handicapped by
Smith. They were loaded with heavy
artillery and a warrant, while Smith
ran in his stocking feet and shirt sleeves.
The course covered a distance computed
at twelve miles with Smith in the lead
at the start which he maintained until
the officers gave up the race and re
turned home sore and weary, also empty
handed and winded, while Smith crept
into haymow near his former home
and slept the sleep of the escaped con-
Wet, since which time his whereabouts,
so far as the officers are concerned,
have heen ShrO11dpd in mystery
Smith walked out of the House of
Correctian two weeks ago Sunday but
the matter was kept quiet by the local
officers as it was surmised he would re-
turn to his home here and he could be
picked up quite easily, but they failed to
take into consideration that Smith is a
runner, hence his liberty up to the pres
ent moment.
