current is made in this apparatus to
regulate itself to fraction of de-
gree. In this way practically uni
form Matching temperature is main
tanned, which is seldom reached by
other artificial methods. This incuba-
tor requires no attention beyond the
daily turning and airing of the eggs.
AS a consequence of the automatic
heat regulation by the shutting off of
the current when the desired tempera-
ture is attained, the consumption of
electricity is reduced to a minimum,
and since the energy is calculated ac-
cording to power and heating charges,
the expense is very small.
The brooder, like the incubator, is
built on the principle of making the
most economical use Of the heat of the
current. thereby keeping down the cost
of operation. In combination with an
electric lamp the brooder keeps tn,
chickens comfortable and warm and
consequently a very large per cent of
those Matched can be reared, whether
in winter or spring.

WHY STAY ON HIS
FATHERS FARM
Farm Boy Winner of $50 Statewide
Prize in Maryland Week Com
petition Gives the Answer.
EDWARD ADY
of Hartford County

What inducement does Maryland Of
fer the Farmers Boy to remain on the
farm? First, in no state of the Union
can he find choice of so many phases
of farming as here. Every condition
favors his success, no matter what line
of agriculture he may follow. He can
become with assurance of success a
general farmer, orchardist, stockman,
dairyman, poultryman OF he can com.
bine several of these branches of far
ming profitably.
Further, there are two things he
knows every man should do; one is to
earn living, the other, to develop
within himself his latent possibilities.
He knows if he gives up farming and
undertakes to build up another bust
ness, that he loses by this change at
least fifteen years of valuable time,
since he has acquired many valuable
facts through experience and observa
ton, which facts would be of no finan-
cial value to him in another occupa-
ton. If he leaves the farm, he will
have to begin wholly at the bottom of
the ladder agar,
The Maryland farmers boy has
spent many hours, days and months
studying and investigating conditions
on the farm. He has learned the es-
sentials of success, he can explain the
many opportunities in agriculture. He
has experimental with crop rotation.
He knows how to estimate profits. He
knows by experience the cost of farm
ing operations. He has had experience
with the necessary machinery to carry
on farm work. He knows how to ham
die animals and what returns are re-
ceived for them He is not stranger
to the farm labor question. He has
acquired some knowledge of shipping
and marketing in business may. He
is better acquainted with the laws of
fecting land and labor than those of
any other occupation. He has kept
abreast or rural legislation and is full
ly equipped to put in practice all of his
knowledge. AS the inventory of facts
grows, the reasons are deeper and
clearer why he should remain on the
farm.
To sum up these reasons the Mary
land farmers boy should remain on
the farm because he belongs there by
hereditary principles. He is needed
there to continue the work of his fore
fathers in a more practical and profit
able way. He knows that by not re-
naming he would lose many years of
experience and take up an uncertain
proposition of which he is in darkness.
He is confident that the soil is adapted
to his occupation The climate is ideal
for his health and crop conditions, and
from the economical side of the pro-
position there is no stated which he
can practice farming more proftably
than in Maryland. He is conscious Of
the fact that he can still be pupil at
any of the agricultural colleges and
thus avoid the many ruts into which
the o'd-tme farmer fell. Finally. he
knows that he will find pleasure and
enjoyment in making two blades of
grass grow where one formerly grew
and intrving out many interesting eT-
perim6ntS on a responsive soil.

EDMUND l.. AMISS.

On Thursday, January 22nd, 1914, as
the evening shades were drawing to close
and the noise and hustle of the busy day
was hushed into silence by the darkness Of
the night, this, our friend and neighbor,
quietly as an infant, passed away to be
with his Father in Heaven, whom he had
for so many years faithfully served, con-
scious to within few moments of his death,
giving to each of his family that last good
bye, fully realizing that the end was near.
He died without a murmur, and with beau
tiful Christian spirit he yielded his all for
that Home prepared for him in that Man.
sion not made with hands, eternal in the
Heavens.
Mr.. Amiss was good, kind, loving hus-
band, and father splendid neighbor, and
a consistent member of Grace M E. Church
South at Gaithersburg, Maryland, to which
he had belonged for about forty years,
being for number of years one of its
trustees.
He came to Montgomery county in 1874
and located in Gaithersburg, where he has
lived ever since. He enjoyed the reputa-
ton OF being one of the very best teachers
our public schools ever had. About ten
years ago, owing to the condition of his
health, he was compelled to retire from his
loved occupation. He was a member of
the House of Delegates from this county,
in which capacity he served us well. He
was also an honored Confederate soldier
serving in the Civil War.
He had married twice, his first wife being
Miss Elizabeth Baker, of Virginia, and his
second wife, Miss Angie Green, of Montgom-
cry county, Md. who survives him, with
two daughters and two sons.
On Saturday, the 26th of January, at
2 o'clock. p M, his remains were laid at
rest in the cemetery at Gaithersburg in the
presence of very large number Of his wide
circle of friends.

Mr.. W. Frank Ricketts,, of near Derwood,
exhibited at this Office on Tuesday last
rare bird that he shot on the morning of
the same day. 1t was a crow covered with
the jet black plumage natural to its kind,
except on either side of its breast there
was a goodly number of pure white
feathers. The old maxim, black as
crow" no longer holds good. for it seems
the feathery tribe is changing with the

One Of the largest delegations Of agricul-

peared before the Committee on Roads and

Mr. Cummings remarks, and a speedy pas
sage Of the bill is anticipated by all those
