NOVELTlES.,NOTi ALL
FROM ACROSS THEPOND
NEW WORKERS MANUFACTURE
MANY INTERESTING TOYS
AND TRINKETs

Not all Of the novelty toys come
from Europe. A well known New York
manufacturer is showing something
new in this direction for the coming
holiday trade One of the chief parts
Of the toy is a 14-inch metal plank,
which is supported by long and a
short brace. Both of these braces
can be folded against the plank in
packing The main performer is a
metal manikin with movable legs.
Held in it's hands are two balancing
rods, with weights fastened at the
ends. When put at the top of the
plank the manikin walks down it step
by step and sways from side to side
somewhat after the manner of
tightrope walker. 1t does not fall off
when the end of the plank is reached,
but by force of gravity is held sus-
pended by the heels.

Veteran clubwomen have been sur
prised to learn that Nine Dore, who
has been appearing in vaudeville in
New York, is none other than Mrs, D.
Lyon, who a few years ago was one
of the most widely known clubwomen
in the entire country Mrs. Lyon was
one of the founders of the Federation
of Womens clubs. She was the pos
SCISSOR of a large fortune until 1910,
when all she had was swept away in
Wall street. At that time her debts
were put at upwards of half million
dollars. Only a few years previously
her husband, who was we'll known
aniKler, sad talied for a Iike amount
Mr.. Lyons first wife was Kate Clax-
ton, the noted actress. Besides de-
voting much of her time to women's
clubs, Mrs. Lyon at one time edited
THE Clubwoman, and in 1903 she
wrote and published a novel that met
with considerable success. Several
years ago she announced that she was
going to retire from club life and take
UP the stage. Her present vaudeville
engagement, however, marks her first
professional appearance in this city.

HOG CHOLERA FIGHT

The astounding losses caused
in this country by hog cholora
are gazing to be discussed on the
floor of the u. S. Senate within
a short time. Soon after the cur
rency bill is out of the way, Sen
ators from the States chiefly con-
cerned in production of hogs are
going to have an inning.
Inasmuch as cholera among
hogs causes the loss of a billion
pounds of meat every year, or
ten pounds for every man, wom-
en- and child, the matter OF
checking the ravages of this
plague has become of great
economic Importance.
Senators Kenyon, of Iowa,
Reed, of Missouri, Pomerene, of
Ohio, and others are going to
bring the subject up in the Sen
ate. Senator Kenyon has intro
duced a bill to appropriate ST.
100000 to enable the Federal
Government to cooperate with
the States in stamping out chol-
era. Congress hitherto has CIV
en- scantily, and the House Com
mittee on Agriculture has been
considering allowing $500, 900
this session.
The loss in dollars ranges be-
tween $3.50, 100000 and $780,
100000 a year. This is not only
a hardship to the farmers and
stockman, but it deprives con-
sumers of an enormous meat sup
dly.
Recently a committee of Sena-
tors consisting of Pomerene,
Kenyon and Reed, saw Secretary
Houston and told him many
things about the grave nature of
the cholera problem. He was as
tonished by what he heard as to
the enormity of the losses.
1t was pointed out to Secretary
Houston that one effect of the
enornfous-losses of herds of hogs
was to make cattle raising I'M
profitable. The result was that
fewer cattle were raised and fat
tened. Generally speaking, the
business of raising and fattening
cattle and of raising hogs is car
ried on together. It is more
profitable when so carried on.
Depletion of herds of hogs
through cholera has tended to
drive many men out Of the bust
ness.

THE SOIL MUST BE FED

The soil that is kept constantly
growing a crop will not have its
nitrogen and humus supply in
creased if these crops are remov-
ed from the soil. While it is the
business of the farmer to take
nitrogen. from the soil, he can
not and has no right to take nit
rogen from the soil if he does not
put it into the soil. The in
crease Of soil fertility, the impor-
lance of a rich soil, is so great
that no man can afford to cult
vate poor soil. The poor man
may with much reason argue that
he cannot afford to miss a crop
of corn, cotton, or oats to grow a
soil improvement crop, but when
he can grow such a crop without
the loss of a single sale of food
crop there is no excuse for poor
soils except poor farming. AS
surely as rich soils mean rich
farmers, do poor soils mean poor
farmers. AS surely as one crop
a year, removed from the soils,
means poor soils; two crops a
year, one of them a legum and
that plowed under, means rich
soils.
Ut course we may need to buy
phosphorus and lime, but we need
those anyway; in fact, we are
buying phosphorus already, but
because of a lack of humus and
nitrogen in the soil we are COM
PEELED to pay for it and get less
value from it. TAFT Butler, in
The Progressive Farmer.

1913 FARM YIELD HEAVY

Ten billion dollars worth OF
products. SIS, 900, 100000 of cash
income-a bumper year in spite
of thoughts and other setbacks
is the 1913 record of 5000. OOO
American farms.
But despite a record year OF
crop value although the record
of production has fallen-and
the fact that the number OF
farms has increased II per cent.
since 1910, until there are now
estimated to be 100000 farms
in the country, the department
in a discussion of the subject
made public recently, does not
take the view that a lower cost
of living will follow as a conse-
quence.
However desirable increased
productions on farms may ap-
pear to be from the consumers
standpoint, it does not follow
that such increased production
would result in any increase in
the cash income per farm or per
canita of farm population, or
that prices paid by consumers
would be any low err" says the
report.
1.-THE long list Of distributors
and middlemen between the far
mer and the consumer are in
position to take advantage of the
market and, to a certain extent,
control the market, in both direc-
tons, because they are better
organized to keep informed of
crop and market conditions and
to act promptly than either
farmers or consumers, who are
not organized and as individuals
are helpless.
1.-THE high prices paid by con-
sumers, ranging from 5 to near
ly so per cent. in some cases
more than the farmer receives,
indicate that there is plenty OF
room for lowering the cost of
farm products to consumers. and
at the same time largely increas-
ing the cash income per farm
without increasing farm produc-
ton. This condition is undoubt-
eddy a marketing problem, which
will have to be solved by better
organization of farmers and inn
proved methods of marketing.
When as the result of such Or
ganization andimproved methods
the price of farm products can
be maintained at a higher level
without increasing the cost to
consumers, farmers will be justi-
fed in increasing the output of
their farms with a fair prospect
of realizing a reasonable profit
on their investment of time, lab
or and money, which in the ag-
gregate is enormous.

LEGISLATIVE SESSION BEGINS

Democratic caucuses of the
Senate and House of the Mary
land Legislature, held at Annap-
oils Tuesday night, adopted the
plan for publicity in caucus pro-
ceedings.
The Lee plan for reform in leg
islative procedure was not acted
on by either caucus. It was re-
ferred to a committee in the Sen
ate.
The slate naming James McC.
Trippe for Speaker of the House
and Jesse D. Price for President
of the Senate was put through.
Humphrey D. Wolfe, for six
terms reading clerk of the House
and regarded as a legislative fix
ture, was made to walk the
plank" by the Howard county
delegation, which landed Andrew
Shaab as reading clerk of the
Senate. 1t could not get both
reading clerk ships so took Shaab.
Stevenson Smith, of Hartford,
will be the House reading clerk.
Frederick N. Zihlman, of Ale
gany, will be Republican floor
leader in the Senate and F. Stone
Posey, of Charles. in the House.
The Senate caucus adopted a
plan for economy that works out
practically the same result as the
economy plan adopted at the last
session, which saved the State
about $4,000.
Both houses of the Legislature
assembled at noon Wednesday.
