ENDORSED AT HOME
Such Proof as This Should Convince
Any Elkton Citizen.

The public endorsement of a local
citizen is the best proof that can be
produced. None better, none stronger
can be had. When a man comes for
ward and testifes to his fellow-citi-
Zens, addresses his friends and neigh
bors, you may be sure he is thorough
ly convinced or he would not do so.
Telling ones experience when it is for
the public good is an act of kindness
that should be appreciated. The fol-
lowing statement given by resident
of Elkton adds one more to the many
cases of Home Endorsement which are
being published about Doan's Kidney
Pills. Read it.

A Diversified Specialist
Continued from page two
Corn Without Flowing.

For net returns the potato crop is
by far the most profitable grown on
the farm. Mr.. Kline usually keeps
his potato yields between $50 and 200
bushels an acre.
This is not big average yield com
pared with Aroostok County, Maine,
Long Island, New York, or Mammoth
County, New Jersey; but $50 to 200
bushels of potatoes to the acre is
mighty good in Central Indiana, where
moisture conditions and high tempera-
lures are not favorable to the best de-
Velopment of the spud. Mr.. Kline
says ne gets good yields of potatoes
because of fall blowing and frequent
level cultivation of the crop immed-
lately after every rain. Fall blowing
gives spring rains an opportunity to
seep into the soil; thorough narrowing
before planting and frequent cultiva-
tons during the growing season retain
sufficient amount of moisture to
produce a good crop even in an unfav-
orable season.
The good results certainly cannot
be due to fertilization, for manv
other growers fertilize as well. Beet
The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1915-01-30

and potato crops usually get COM
plete fertilizer Analysing about 2-10-6.
If any other crop is fortified it re-
ceives an application of bone meal. Mr..
Kline says fertilization pays much
better on the rolling land than on the
rich valley land.
This diversified specialist walks out
of the usual paths in more than one
place. While neighbors' horses are
Juggling at the plows turning the last
stalk field for corn, four of his big
mules are drawing a tandem disk over
a similar field the second time at an
easy gait. By blowing only the sod
and stubble fields that are to be plant
ed to corn, he is able to get on any
stalk, beet or potato land with the disk
before the moisture has been driven
out of the soil by hot spring winds.
"You mean to say that you don't
pillow stalk ground and beet and pota-
to ground that is to be planted to
corn?" | asked.
Gust that" he replied 81 would
not board a man to pillow these black
loan soils for corn when it is to fol-
low titled crop" He explained that
the land had been plowed eight or
nine inches deep for the preceding
crop, and that by disking five inches
he could work up as much of the soil
as needed. He had tried this practice
for several years, he said, and was
convinced that three diskings with a
tandem disk would produce as good
corn following a titled crop on black
loan soil as thorough blowing and
narrowing. He did not think the
practice would hold good on heavy
clay land or on soils poorly supplied
with organic matter; but for him it
meant the saving of about weeks
time, to say nothing of the greater
expense of blowing.

1t had been hoped that something
might be done with the Linthicum bill
in the recent session, and there Were
hearings before the House Committee,
but no srious effort was made to get
the bill up for vote on final passage.
1t is asserted, however, that the
question is one that cannot long be
postponed, and that there are urgent
reasons why it should come up in the
Congress whose members are to be
elected in November. In all probable
ity it will come up then and be finally
disposed of.
The opinion is very general that
just the the Federal Government has
been compelled to enact a pure-food
law, national game protection law,
national migratory bird protection
law, and to inject into the currency
law the principle of Capitalization of
currency and credit, and into the anti
trust law the principle of Federal in
QUESTION into the operations of the
great interstate corporations, includ-
ing the railways, so it will be COM
PEELED to assume control of the fish
supply of the nation in the interest of
the preservation of that supply.
Linthicum, in discussing the need
for legislation along the lines of the
bill he has introduced, notes that the
catch of shad in Virginia has declined
from 11,529,474 pounds in 1897 to
2,753,321 pounds in 1913.
The catch of shad in Maryland was
I,I27 1856 pounds in 1890, and but
l,9l2,340 pounds in 1912. The stur-
geon, whose value was not generally
recognized until 1880, has been prac-
tically destroyed as commercial fish,
Linthicum says.
The catch on the Atlantic coast fell
from 100000 pounds year to less
than 100000 pounds in Is years; on
the Pacific coast from 100000 pounds
to les than 100000 pounds; while in
the Great Lakes the decrease has been

Protection OF Fish Urged By Linthicum

An important bill that failed of con-
sideration at the recent session for
want of time is that introduced by Re-
preventative ]. Charles Linthicum, of
Baltimore, to conserve the fish supply
of the country.
Linthicum has gathered statistics TO
show that unless there Is Federal con-
troll the fish supply of the United
States, notably that of the Great
Lakes and Chesapeake Bay, will rap
idly disappear. For years, he points
out, the States, acting independently,
have been endeavoring to regulate the
taking of fish, but without success.
Several reasons lie at the root of
this inability of the States to control.
The difficulty appears to be funda-
mental, and the present appeal to the
Federal Government, expressed in the
Linthicum bill, apparently has been
