D. G. Guardsmen May Come Here

Because of the Mexican trouble and the
unsettled conditions that prevail gener-
ally concerning the solution OF the con-
troversy, the National Guard of the Dis
trct OF Columbia will not participate in
maneuvers around the Capital city this
year. as was scheduled and planned. but
will instead, hold summer camp, likely
near Frederick. The camp site has not
been selected, but it is probable that
Frederick will be decided upon. Two
years ago the District Guard came to
Frederick for the annual encampment
and at that time the officers and those in
charge were pleased with the opportuni-
ties that we're offered in this locality for
the use of practical military work.
Official notice that the District Guards
will not participate IN the maneuvers
around the Capital citv has been receiv-
ed at headquarters of the Washington
National Guard from the headquarters of
the Eastern Division in New York, and
came in response to a request for inlor-
nation on the matter by Lieul A L.
Parmarter, adjutant general, District of
Columbia Militia.

THE COMMON FLY A DEADLY
PEST.
Breeding Places Should Be Gotten Rid
Of At Once.
T. B. SYMONS,
Maryland Agricultural College.

Now is the time to prevent the
house fly from appearing in large num-
bers this summer. Little can be done
by a few persons in putting down this
nuisance, if some neglect to do their
part, for single pile of horse manure
allowed to stand in the open will fur
nish flies for the whole neighborhood.
The greatest good, therefore, will re-
suit when all persons keeping stables
in the community have the manure
removed from the stables at least twice
a week or keep the manure in a
screened portion of the stable. Too
much emphasis cannot be put upon
this method of avoiding human sick
ness and suffering from the deadly dis.
eases that the house fly carries.
Combating the pest in country dis
tricts and around farmhouses is large
ly an. individual one, and the presence
of flies in large numbers or to lin
tied extent will depend upon the sani-
tary conditions around the house and
barn. Aside from hauling out the
manure at regular intervals, all out
houses and similar places should be
protected from flies, as it is in this
manner that the fly assemblies the
germs of disease and distributes them
to any exposed food. 1t cannot be
too strongly urged that all such places
be constructed as sanitary as possible
and disinfectants freely used.

LESSONS SHOULD BE FULL OF
INTEREST.
Our Country Children Should Be Edu-
Gated In The Needs OF The
Life About Them.
J. e. METGZER.
Maryland Agricultural College.

Maryland Agricultural College,
The successful school is that one in
which the teaching is in terms of the
child life. Doubtless the decline of the
rural school may be laid to the fact
that both the preparation of the teach
er and many of the textbooks used
are foreign to the common things Of
the farm home and life. Teachers who
have come to the rural schools and
tried to teach the things they were
taught in the city schools have found
their work drudgery and the pupils
apparently dull and listless. Parents
and school officials excuse this def
cheney on the part of teachers by say
ing that they are from the city and
are not expected to be familiar with
country life.
What is needed and should be re-
quired of every rural teacher is either
experience or training which acquaints
them with the facts about farm crops,
soils, farm animals, sanitation, and the
preparation of foods, and the best
methods of presenting them in the
school. Our Agricultural College is
helping to solve this problem through
its summer training school for country
teachers, which opens for a six weeks
session June the 22nd.

WARM WEATHER FAVORS
SPREAD OF HOG CHOLERA
Those Wishing To Protect Their Hogs
From This Disease Should Take
Precautions Now.

The season most favorable to the
spread OF Hog Cholera is now at hand.
Every hog owner who wishes to pro-
tect his herd against loss from this
disease, should secure serum prompt
~ and have it administered before any
sign OF contagion becomes evident.
IL should be known that hog cholera
serum is not cure, but a preventa-
tive, and as such should be admins
tered before an outbreak is likely to
occur
The cholera was so prevalent last
year that the demand for the serum
was greater than either the State
Laboratory or the commercial labora-
tories throughout the country could
supply and their output in some cases
was bought up and contracted for
months in advance. Many hog raisers
in Maryland availed themselves of the
serum manufactured at the Expert
ment Station, and a number of re-
ports have been returned from time
to time indicating satisfaction, par
ticularly where the serum was used
before the diseases had actually ap-
peared in the herds.
Inc tested serum supplied by the
Experiment Station should be used at
the rate of 35 &C. per 100 pounds of
live weight, the cost price being 2
cents per &C. or 20 cents for 100
pound hog. The serum must be admin
istered by or under the direction of
a licensed veterinarian or doctor of
medicine. If you have any idea of pro-
tecting your hogs against cholera, have
them attended to promptly. Do not
wait until some are taken sick and
the serum can do only partial good in
saving those still unexposed to the
disease. Write now to the Experiment
Station at College Park for full de-
scription of the disease and precau-
lions you should take.

woodsboro Church Dedicated,

The new Lutheran church at Woods

OF $4,000, was dedicated Sunday with

burg Theological Seminary, was present

ices: There was Sunday school serv-
ice in the afternoon at 2.3o O'Clock and

Safe and Sane Fund Growing.

Twentyseven dollars and thirty cents
for Frederick's Safe and Sane" Fourth
of July celebration for this wear was re-
ceived, the first day the fund was started.
This amount is more than encouraging to
the members of the Civic Club who are
arranging for the affair and the exercises
this year will be carried on III a more ex-
tensive manner than ever.
Prizes of SIS and $40 will be offered for
the two most beautiful floats entered by
the merchants and the same prizes offer
ed to the two prettiest floats entered by
iraternities and organizations in the pa
rade, which will be held in the morning.
1t is hoped that there will be more chill
dfen in the parade than was the case the
past two years.
In the early part Of the evening. there
will be an athletic contest held probably,
at the High School grounds. A pyro-
technic display will be given in the even
ing and IN It's beauty will depend largely
upon the amount OF contributions re-
ceived.

More Room for Glasses.

For some time there has been some
uneasiness on the part OF the school off
Gals concerning the growing lack OF

and it is probable that the auditorium at

This auditorium was constructed only a
few years ago, and has seating capacity
OF more than six bundled Because Of
the equipment of domestic science
room at the Gir's' High School the need
of more room has become imperative.

Blight Damages Heights Timber

Chestnut trees which form a consider
able portion Of the mountain timber
about BraddcCk Heights are threatened
with destruction by reason of the chest
nut blight, which made its appearance in
Frederl k county mountains several
years ago. About Braddock Park the
blight has been very destructive, and
chts nut trees by the dozens have been
cut down in the park because of the raw
ages Of The blight
The trouble is easily recognized. At
various places on a Tree, one can see the
bark has become loose from the tree
various limbs are dead and here and
there shoot small tufts of green twigs, as
are put forth bv diving trees Tie trou-
Bile threatens To- clear the mountain of all
chestnut timber. and the only remedy
now seems 10 be to conserve the oak tim
Der OF the mountain as much as possible
and To plant additional oak trees, which
so Ia have appeared to be immune from
the Glleht.
The Hagerstown and Frederick Rail-
wav Co, which to great extent main
tams BraddoCk Park, about four wears
ago planted row of about ten acres in
Norway naples. These trees have made
remarkable growth, and 1t may be that
these trees will be the salvation of the
mountain resort, should the blight con-
tlnue.

A good way to supply water to
fowls, especially to the growing chicks,
is to keep it before them in stamped.
out, galvanized refrigerator pans. The
nice thing about these pans for water.
ing chicks is that they are seamless,
quite easily cleaned, and can be OBJ
tanned in any suitable size. Further,
they hold good volume of water and
are very easily filed. For young
chicks place brick or fiat stone in
the centre of the pan so that if any
jump in, they can rescue themselves.
Some chicks don't know that they can't
swim
