ny hnHudl winter tour OF the

der Mr.. Walter Damrosch's leader
ship has for some years past been
. 81 the important musicalssfx-
lures OF the season In this country.
NO other orchestra has Travelled
with SO large a number OF players
over SO extended a territory, in the
systematic way made possible by the
tirm financial basis upon which this
organization rests. Cities in nearly
every state in the Union have been
visited, and nowhere has the serious
work of the orchestra and its con-
ductor been more heartily a%ppreviat-
Cd than in places where good music
IL comparatively seldom heard. In.
some communities Of this sort, the
New York Symphony orchestr4a's
concerts have been followed by the
establishment of local musical n
terprises Of marked influence.
Al Mr.. Damrosch' does not lower his
~lsstagndards OF program .or' perform,

ulnaaesc,ustomed to frequent concerts,
he plays tile best music in the or
clestra's repetory. An experience
of American audiences more COM
preliensivc than that of any other
conductor now in the field, has con-
WINGED Mr.. Damrosch that when CIV
Ing concerts with u good orchestra,
nothing less than the best music is
good enough.
The programs for this tour are
made up of the most representative
and admired compositions Of this
seasons list, in the orchestra's home
series, in Aealian Hail, New York.
1t has been the testimony OF
disinterestcd hearers of the New
York concerts of the current sea-
son, that the Symphony Orchestra
has never played better. or been
more consistently fortunate In the
personnel of its instrumental
GROUPS.
Over 100000 per year is dis
trlbuted in the form of salaries to
the members of the New York
Symphony Orchestra. This great
sum takes no account OF the costs
Incident to administering the or
ganization, renting halls, paying
for railway travel. advertising,
music and other necessary expenses.
These often amount to at least $4O,-
900 per year. 1t will be seen,
therefore. that in addition to the
maximum revenue from concerts
that It is possible for a first class
Symphony Orchestra to earn, there
must be u large income from en-
dowment or other sources.

Buy . hogshead of Tobaeco: be liberal

Help the Farmer out of the ruf and
start him on the 20.
You can buy bale of cotton, but then
you've got 10 roam,
Why not buy o hogshead of Tobacco
and help the folks at home.
The Farmers cannot pay for goods,
that he's bought from the county
store,
And the Merchant can't pay for those
he has received from Baltimore:
So buy hogshead Of Tobacco, you
will do q great deal more,
You will help the county Farmers,
also the people Of Baltimore.
It doesn't seem possible that this Eu-
ropean affair
Could make our people want and put
them In despair,
But never the less it's so, with things
so very high,
The prices Of our food stuff will surely
reach the sky.
So buy q hogshead of tobacco be lib
eral il you can,
Put your money In cir culation 20 help
your fellow man;
The German Legions may march and
the British Lion may roar,
But with q little money we can hold
until after the war.

Dear Readers of the Beacon:
l wish to insert and call your atten.
ton TO the golden opportunity thai
lies before US in the near future. Is II
to be overlooked and cast aside? No;
let US join hand in hand and grip the
wheel of prosperity, as we now have
the opportunity to drive out the curse
that has so long been our downfall
and disgrace to our county.
We are informed daily that the rev.
enue on liquor is the largest income
TO our county. That may be, but look
at it on the other side; it is the great.
est tax we have on the county.
Some people say we could not have
as many schools il it was not for the
income tax on whiskey ~ Well, for
my part, l would prefer an uneducated
gentleman to an educated drunkard or
gambler, for both: go together.
Nov, IL every good thinking and
sound-minded man would look behind
him and see what is coming along in
his footsteps he would surely try and
set better example than what we now
have.
So my friend, now is the time 10
study this matter over and do away
with that evil spirit which has so many
offsprings.
Now, my friends, what did God
make us forT To know Him, to love
Him and to serve Him. My friends,
how can we serve Him and the devil
toon There is not man that spends
his time in the bar-room that is not
serving the latter.
So IL we can knock this curse out OF
our county | believe by doing so il
will lead to many other good deeds
for US all, for there is no sober man
that will or would stop as low as he
would were he under the influence OF
whiskey. have seen enough of il
to know. Hoping some good friend
may help me in my undertakings, I
remain. with love and respect for our
county. Respectfully,

Death Of George c. Abel.

The grim reaper, Death, once more
compels us to chronicle the passing
away of another of our best and most
prominent citizens. George c. Abel,
son of the late John b. and Rebecca
Clarke Abel, after n brief illness with
pneumonia died at his home in this
town at $50 p: m, on Thursday, the
LIST inst, aged o. years.
Mr.. Abel was a successful farmer,
which vocation he followed all his life,
with the exception of few years dur
Ing the Harrison administration, when
he was connected with the Internal
Revenue Service in Baltimore as
Guager, which position he filled with
great credit.
Language Is inadequate TO express
fittingly this mans Christian charac-
ter; few have walked so near to God.
Conscience guided every act and his
strict honesty in every service he rem
dered was characteristic. In short, he
was not only q model Christian, but
was an honorable gentleman, in the
highest sense that term implies. He
commanded the respect of all classes
of people, as the large attendance nj
his funeral fully verified. Ii was
perfectly natural for this man 70

and most strict In the attention TO his
religious duties. He is gone! Another
name Is stricken from the ever lessen

He lived nobly, had done his work
and held his peace and had no fear 20
die.

two sons, one brother and three sisters.

The results which are given below
prove that Mr.. MAXWELL was not mis-
taken In his opinion regarding the
value Of knowing the production oil
each COW I'm his herd.
At the end Of the first yesr. Il was
found that the average production oil
a herd Of Is cows was E.062 pouniss oil
milk. containing ia pounds Of butts-
fat. The cost OF feed per COW amount
ed to sam. There was q proft OF
s41.s5 above the cost of feed. FoI
every dollar expended for feed the
average COW made q return In milk
amounting TO s1.ss.
The best cow In the herd, the nrsi
year. yielded 5.sss pounds Of milk con
tanning 26s pounds OF butterfat. while
three cows were sold as improbable
one making Q Yield Of only 2.s1O
pounds Of milk.
During the hrst year. Mr.. Maxwell
studied the records carefully. and
made plans 10 feed the herd for Its
highest and most economical produc
ton the next year. He found that the
production during the months Of July
and August was very low. owing to
dry pastures and lack Of green feed:
also that the effect Of short feed AT
this time could not be overcome dur.
ing the remainder Of the lactation
period. The second year green corn
was provided a. Q supplement TO dry
pastures. Az q result. the records
show that during the second year the
average cow produced S.142 pounds Of
milk containing 800 pounds Of butter.
fat; abe consumed stI.e1 worth ol
feed. and made O profit above the cost
feed amounting to ses.7s.
The highest producing COW In the
herd yielded $3.50 pounds OF milk.
containing 400 pounds Of butterfat.
Her feed cost sSs.s2: and the profit
above the cost Of feed was s11s.72.
The following table gives q clear
idea OF the increased production. that
resulted when q careful system OF
feeding was followed:

Average Production Per Cow.

This increase was made largely
through feeding. Three cows were
eliminated a. Improbable during the
first year. This. OF course. had q ma
teriai effect in making the average
production higher: bat tbs larger fac.
tor was the individual feeding.
BY keeping records the low pro.
dueers can be discarded: and the re
mainder Of the herd can be fed &C
cording TO their production These
two factors will increase the average
production Of any herd: and make the
yield az q lower feed cost.

Below we give an extract from q
letter written BY Robt. NJ. Pindell,
Maryland Manager of the Southern
Settlement and Development Organize
ton, 10 Brother Walter, OF Leonard
Hall. In regard 10 the demonstration
OF an oyster shell crusher at Leonard
Hall during the Fair:
''Mr. Jeffrey, Of the Jeffrey Manu-
featuring Company, came into the
ONCE unexpectedly on Saturday and
assured me that the machinery would
be at Leonardtown in ample time for
the demonstration beginning on Mon
day, the 18th inst. He also left me the
enclosed photograph which shows the
machine complete.
Apparently the Jeffrey people have
given o great deal of thought TO this
machine, and all of the machinery
shown In the photograph, with the ex-
ception OF the erusher itself, which You
viii identify by the hopper, has been
Quilt especially for this occasion:
their idea being to have an arrange
ment whereby ali of the shell that was
not suffictsntly fine at the first grind
ing would go through the machine q
second time. The screen Is
for the purpose of removing the
coarser particles for regrinding. All
OF the machine except the crusher it
sell will be shipped direct from the
factory within q few days, and the
crusher itself will be shipped from
Hagerstown. It Is possible that the
crusher viii not arrive at Leonard
town until Sunday, the ., but they
are going 20 make every effort TO get
IT there on the boat which leaves Bal
timore on the trip next before that.
Mr.. Jeffrey was OF the impression that
the II. +. steam engine would be am
pie TO drive this machine and you may
govern yourself accordingly in that
respect. he tells me that this machine
IS coming knocked down. and that
the whole thing, including the crusher
weighs about 1900 pounds. hope
you will look out for this equipment
At Leonardtown and have il hauled
Just as soon as it arrives.
One other point about this ma
chinery which think will interest you
and which shows how carefully the
jeffrey people have gone into this
question. Their idea has been to de-
velop machine which could be oper-
ated entirely by one man, looking
after both, the engine and the ma
chinery, and they believe that this
equipment will produce about two tons
OF lime per hour. IL their estimates
are correct, you can readily see what
splendid outfit this would be for u
man who has deposit of shells at his
disposal, because he could make lime
very cheap"
