The following is from an
editorial in the Baltimore News:
State Comptroller Harrington
is Senator Smiths candidate.
This statement cannot be sue
cessfully disputed. Even the
politicians lined up with Senator
Smith to nominate Mr.. Harring-
ton did not, as a rule, want him.
Congressman Talbot was favor
able to Judge Constable, DR..
Wells was pledged to Congress-
man Linthicum; and Frank A.
Furst the Senator's staunch per-
sonal friend, looked askance at
the Harrington idea long before
he permitted his devotion to
Senator Smith to pull him into
line back Of the State Comptroll-
er. Four out Of five of the
Smith lieutenants regarded Har-
rington as an impossibility in all
the preliminary discussions of
the Gubernatorial situation.
Senator Smith made the flat
demand. Without the Senator
Mr.. Harrington could count on
the vote of just one county, Dor
chester. his home county. Con.
sequently, if he is nominated
and elected Governor of Mary.
land, no man will ever have tax.
en- the oath Of office under deep.
er personal obligations to anoth.
er than will the State Comptroll
er be to Senator Smith.
What would all this mean
Simply that the greatest obstruc.
tive force in Maryland politics
would be in command of the
political situation.

1t has been their custom to use
the ballot only in general cleo
lions. This they can continue
to do without the least restraint,
as participation in a primary
does not bind a voter to support
it's choice; but this vote, a con-
sentative and intelligent one,
should be welcomed in the pri-
mary also, and it is we'll to see
restraints that embarrass its par
ticipation therein removed.

HOrseflies.

Horsefies are not only serious an
noyance to live stock in many sections
of the United States, but are frequently
agents in transmitting the disease
known as anthrax, or Charlton, which
extremely fatal not only to various
kinds of animals but to man as we'll
1t has been proved in experiments
that horsefies, as well as the stable
fly, carry this disease.
Even, however, when the horsef1y
plays no part in the spread of anthrax
it may cause severe loss of stock. The
worry caused by the flies bites fire.
quently causes animals to cease feeding
and to group themselves together fol-
mutual protection. When the pest is
more than usually abundant nervous
animals are sometimes driven frantic
and injure themselves in various ways
Furthermore, the loss of blood due to
the attacks of the fly may be very seri-
Gus. Scie ntists in the department have
studied cases in which it was estimated
that in the course of a single day sever
al hundreds of flies gorged themselves
with blood from one animal In addition
to the blood drunk by the flies. much
was lost by trickling out of the wounds
made by the insects. The adult horse
fly is equipped with such a formidable
biting apparatus that it is difficult to
protect stock from its attacks. Any
substance which will repel them eff
fectually is likely to injure the animal
to which it is applied. A preparation
which will, however, give some tenn
porary degree of protection consists of
l gallon of fish oil. l ounce oil of tar,
and l ounce oil of pennyroyal. This
may be sprayed on work animals with
advantage, but the use of sprays is
practically impossible in the case of
range stock. Bulletin No. 131 of the
Department of Agriculture, which may
be obtained from the Superintendent
of Documents, Washington, D. c., for
5 cents, deals with this question of re-
pellents.
Another method which has the ad-
vantage of simplicity is to provide
sheds which furnish rather dense shade
and into which live stock may go when
the pests are most troublesome.
Horsehies do not enter these sheds
readily and the stock will obtain some
relief. For very valuable stock or for
young calves fy-proof cages are some
times constructed and the amin ais
placed in these during the middle of
the day when the flies are the worst.
Such screened cage is very desirable
as a means of isolating animals suspect
ed of anthrax After a diseased ami
NAL has been in it the cage should al
ways be disinfected.
Most of the species of horseaies breed
in swampy places. For this reason the
numbers of the flies decrease with the
clearing up and cultivation of marshy
areas. This of course is very slow
measure of relief, and investigators
have found that the process may be
FASTENED by placing film of kernsene
on the surface of pools of water. All
adult flies that strike the kerosene are
destroyed. This system of control is
valuable chiefly in regions where there
are comparatively few pools of water
or in wooded areas where certain pools
are observed to be especially attrac-
tive to the flies.
