Mary and Week.

Plans for the Maryland Week Gel
ebration at the Fifth Regiment Ann
DRY, Baltimore, from November 16 to
Il, inclusive, are being completed and,
according to those in charge, it will
be far more elaborate than the one
last year. A record breaking gath
ering of residents of the counties is
expected, and every member of the
committee in charge is actively pre-
pairing to give them a warm recep-
ton. The secretary, Thomas B. Sy-
mons, stated yesterday that all of the
exhibition space was crowded and that
all other space was closed.
Considering New Feature.
One Of the new features of the ex-
hibition that is being considered, is a
fruit contest for all of the agricul-
tural colleges and schools in the state.
A letter from the Delaware Agricul-
tural College has been received by the
committee, asking that they be per-
mitted to send a number of boys to
the exhibition. 1t is stated in the let
ter that these boys are preparing to
90 to another exhibition in Virginia.
They will place fruit on exhibition. Ii
the committee decides to have the con
test, several judges will be appointed
for the affair
There will be various exhibitions
at the armory during Maryland Week.
One Of the most interesting is now
being prepared by Postmaster Sher-
lock Swami. 1t will be a parcel-post
display and every step in the de-
yelopment of the system will be
shown. Literature will be distributed.
Also there will be many contests.
Twenty-Five hundred dollars in
prizes will be distributed for fruit,
vegetables, flowers, corn, wheat,
dairy products, honey and other ex-
hibitions of the farmers. The prizes
this year have been increased and
the rules and regulations regarding
the exhibits have been revised.
The exhibition is under the auspices
of the Maryland State Horticultural
Society, the Maryland Crop Improve
ment Association, Maryland State
Dairymen's Association and the
Maryland State Beekeepers' Asso-
citation. These organizations viii
hold their annual convention at the
armory during Maryland Week.

PROFIT IN DkIRYING DE-
PENDS ON WISE FEEDING
Silage Or Legume Hay Needed In
Ration To Lessen Cost Of
Feeding.
G. E. WOLCOTT.
Maryland Agricultural Experiment
Station.

During the summer months, when
COWS are on pasture, the dairyman is
not troubled with the problem of sup
plying the herd with ration which
will maintain the flow of milk and also
be economical.
To the farmer who has a loft full
OF alfalfa or clover and a silo full OF
silage, the problem is simple; he will
need comparatively little grain to
make a balanced ration.
If cut fodder, alone is available for
roughage, it will be necessary to sup
ply large part of the nutrients, re
quired to maintain the production oil
the herd, in the form of a grain mix
ture which will necessarily be ex
pensive. This is the season when the
farmer realizes, more than ever that
silage and some legume hay are neces
sary for the profitable production OF
milk and butter Two-thirds of the
nutrients required for a normal pro
duction can be supplied in the form
of rough feed; but where neither silage
nor legumes are available two-thirds
of the daily feed must be supplied in
the form of grain. This necessitates
the purchase Of large amounts of high
priced concentrates; which will make
the cost of production very high and
probably Improbable.
In selecting the feeds for his grain
mixture the dairyman should choose
those that are to be had at the lowest
cost; and use only enough of each
so that the mixture will, when fed
with what roughage is available, sup.
ply the nutrients that are required for
a given production. This is a bal.
anced ration.

said to Be Oldest Tree.

The famous cypress near Oaxaca in
Mexico, over 5000 years old, said to
be the Oldest tree in the world was
discovered by Humboldt while on his
famous tour of equatorial America,
100 years ago. He nailed to it a
wooden tablet, which is now half COW
cred by the subsequent growth OF
the tree. Upon it, however, is still
legible the autograph of the famous
German naturalist. The last meas
urement of the tree showed its trunk,
four feet from the ground, to have
girth of 1875 feet.

IMPROVEMENT OF SCHOOL
GROUNDS is VERY
DESIRABLE.
B. w. AUSPON.

B. w. AUSPON.
Maryland Agricultural College.
Many of our rural schoolhouses are
so situated that they wholly lack pro-
lection from inclement weather Con-
sequently, the teacher and pupils are
often subjected to trying conditions in
severe weather. When it is almost i'm
possible to keep the building warm
Not only are the winds of winter try
ing, but those of spring are equally So
while the intense rays of the summer
sun often have similar effect By the
judicious planting of trees and shrubs
marked changes can be secured. The
severe winds will be checked from
striking the building, thus mitigating
the temperature to some extent. In
spring the trees will give that refresh
ing shade so welcome at that season
of the year.
In addition to serving as a protec-
ton and adding beauty to the school
grounds, such planting proves of great
educational value. By planting and
caring for trees the children are given
some knowledge of tree culture, which
will prove useful in later years. The
writer will gladly cooperate with To-
cal teachers in planning school
grounds and selecting trees ana
shrubs.

DRIVE POULTRY GENTLY.
ROY H. WAITE.

ROY ii. WAITE.
Maryland Agricultural Experiment
Station.
1t pays to be gentle with poultry at
all times, but especially during the
late fall when the pullets are just de-
veloping into laying condition. At
this time sudden scare or excite
ment will set them back in egg pro-
duction. When putting them into win
ter quarters, be as careful as you can.
If they have been kept tame, as they
should be, they can usually be driven
into their house very easily. An easy
way to drive them is for two or three
persons to get around them, each with
a long, light board or pole, held in the
middle. This is used to gently usher
them along without the necessity of
running them down.

Arrest for Debt.

While Imprisonment for debt as it
at one time existed in English and
American law, by which a debtor
might be arrested and imprisoned for
mere liability to pay his creditor, no
longer exists in the United States, the
statutes of the majority of the states
provide for the arrest of defendant
in a civil action under certain> condi.
tons, such as fraud, or torts, or EN-.
bezzlement, etc.

American Cheese.

Imported cheese will be scarce
while this war lasts, but plenty of
good cheese is made in this country.
Americans have never consumed as
much cheese as they should have,
yet it is one of the cheapest and most
nutritious food products available.
Foreign cooks have taught New
Workers its value, but few Ameri-

500 Saloons Shut Down.

Chicago, Nov "a 100000 perma-

confronts Chicago as the result Of the
determination of 500 saloon men not
to renew their licenses.

Cook County Brewers Association, as
the cause for the decrease in the num-
Der of saloons.

Much Perfume In Dining Hall.

An Athenian host always had his
dining hall perfumed when about tc
give a feast, and his drinking cups
scented with nlyrrh, while during the
course Of the entertainment slaves
sprinkled sweet essences upon the
guests. In those days the perfume
shops of Athens were the centers Of
gossip, intrigue, love and politics.

Men Meant for Leaders.

Hollands InvulnerabiIity.

Hollands safety in time of war lies
in her ability to flood great tracts of
land. William of Orange flooded the
country in 1874, and by so doing drove
out the Spanish invaders. The same
policy was adopted on the occasion
Of the French invasion of 1872.

Retaining Individuality.

Individuality is the salt of common

it, nor subsist on its food. You may
have your own orchard; you may
drink at hidden spring. Be yourself,
if you would serve others.-Henry

Compulsory. School. Attendance


Not an arrest has been made in
Frederick in the enforcement of the
compulsory school attendance law.
Truant Officer Russell Stockman,
when seen alst night, showed large
list OF truants who will likely be lined
up and marched to school in the next
day or so. MIR. Stockman is getting
a line" on the truants, their loafng
places and their general habits, be-
fore he launches into a wholesale raid.
Although the first census figures
showed that there was a comparative
ly small number OF truants in Fred
erick, Mr.. Stockman learned yester-
day that there is in reality quite a
large number. This is especially true
Of the negroes OF the city.
There was a rush for enrolment in
colored schools when the School
Board announced that the compulsory
school attendance law would be en-
forced.
Daily Report OF AbSentees.
In order to cover the city thorough
~ 1t is likely that Mr.. Stockman will
ask for daily report Of absentees.
That is the only possible way in
which can know Of children who are
not in school" he said 81 know only
few Of truants by face and they
would be out of school a week with
out me knowing it unless the prin-
cipals notified me at once"
Grade Supervisor Harshman, who is
the county truant officer, has not
made any arrests. The officers are
depending on today's meeting of the
Frederick County School Commission
ers when final plans will be made.

Thanksgiving Dinner for the Poor

If the public co-operates the poor
of Frederick will be given Thanks
giving. dinner this year by the Amcri-
can Rescue Workers. Captain Walter
G. Lamont, in charge of the work in
Frederick, said yesterday evening
that it was his intention to provide
for the poor and needy of Frederick if
funds permitted He declared that the
extent Of this dinner would be con
trolled entirely by the amount of the
contributions.
Tentative plans have been drafted
by the Captain for a Christmas din
ner. Those in charge of the branch
in Frederick have been making q
thorough canvass for funds to finance
both the Thanksgiving and Christmas
dinners, but without any very encour-
aging results.
To Establish Soup Kitchen.
During the winter months of the
year Captain Lamont will establish
soup kitchen. Phe plans for this feat
ure have only been partially arranged,
yet it is believed that such depart
ment can be secured in the city to
care for those who are unable to Sc
cure work and food.
Accounts of the Captain showed last
evening that Frederick contributes
very small portion for the support Of
the work in the city. The outlying
towns and villages of Frederick coun-
ty have in some cases made large
contributions
